Scene Nodes challenge, peeling paint flakes on wall

[thomas76]

Hey I am R&D' ing this challenge at the moment.

"Recreate the peeling pain flakes we see on walls. I need it to be as much detailed as possible."
(I am not able to attach direct images, even though its tiny. )

I made some good progress just using cloth and vertex maps that control the pins and a low distance setting which makes them curl somewhat. I think to get all the detail it would be much better to have it already in the mesh, not through simulation, as I need a lot more detail

But I was thinking isn't this a really good one for Scene nodes? Something where we can measure the distance from center and curl the edges up? In particular the curled edges are what I am after. and I could paint maps to get variation of fractures in different areas?

Its normally something I would try to do in H* but I was curious if I could do that now in c4d

Thank you!

Hi thomas76,

Images have a height max of 500pixel.

I think that would be a perfect question to discuss live over at Ask The Trainer (Feb. 05).

Please prepare your questions and ask them here: https://maxonvfx.com/3uZ5hjW

I'm sure Noseman has some insights to this process.

Cheers

thanks! will do.

Thank you, thomas76.

You are in good hands with Noseman, for Scene Nodes, surely better than I try

This is a very interesting idea, and I believe many things can be derived from the created knowledge!

Have a great start to your week.
