BA5 Studio Project | Production #22


 Curtainssss!

I made some curtains following a helpful video by World of Level Design I posted at the beginning of the project. Here is a step by step guide for how I achieved them, I'm not sure if they will be game engine worthy but I think they look pretty :)

I used the create drop down menu to select the pencil curve tool and used my wacom tablet and pen to draw a curvy line which would make the shape of the curtains. 


I then  duplicated the curved line.  

 
I then had to change my shelf to surfaces and select surface > loft with both the curves selected (top and bottom of curtain).


Lofting then left me with the overall curtain shape that I needed but this is still pretty basic.

  
By adding subdivisions and selecting vertices separately I was able to mould the curtains into an organic shape. 

  
Once this was done I added a fairly low poly ring to the thinnest part of the curtain to look like a ring holding them open. I then simply grouped the curtain and ring > centred the pivot > ctrl D’d the curtains and put them in place on the other window.
