So far, I have the syrup being applied into a cache, and hopefully after this finishes I can apply the rest of the tutorial’s assets.

Bifrost Tutorials: 2
Today, I started working on our second Bifrost Fluid tutorial in Maya. So far, I have the scene made for it. I was feeling a little bit more artistic that day, so I wanted to make it a little bit more detailed than just a sphere floating in a void. I have the proper objects …
Bifrost Tutorials: 1
Today, I finished one of our Bifrost tutorials in Maya. In this, We created a wheel that spins while a liquid falls on top of it.

nCloth Tutorials 4
This is the video I made on the second flag tutorial we made using nCloth. Just like the previous tutorial, I really liked doing this one. It took some trial and error, since I needed to keep the flag in the air, while also making it swap from left to right. Other or less, it …

This is the video I made on the first moving flag using nCloth. I really like how this turned out, the waving is super realistic and amazingly beautiful! I didn’t end up having any problems with it, and I was even able to put a little smiley face on it and still was able to …
nHair Tutorials: 3
