Short Vid how to use the new SurfaceParticle Generator to create nice drops on a surface.
Splashkit drops, the tube function, "jitter" and a replicator for a quick water-fountain.

Btw. the "tweak" for the fountain-mesh is not from me, Andy Brown had this great idea :-)

In this tutorial we'll take a look on how we can proceed to create a photo realistic sea environment.

We'll start modeling a very simple plane and than we'll use the Shader Tree to create a complete water shader using
procedural maps, displacement and advanced raytracing features. We'll take a very fast tour around the daylight
lighting and environment rendering system.

cheers!

This video gives a very broad overview of how modo's deformation system works and some key differences between it and other 3D systems. The idea here is to give the reader a basic, foundational understanding of key deformation concepts that Hippydrome uses throughout his book "The Art of Moving Points".

Here is another modo rigging test that I've been working on today.

It's a dragon wing, intended for use on a robotic dragon.

To be honest, I'm pleasantly surprised that modo let me do this. :)
