CINEVERSITY

You're very welcome, MaverickMongoose,

Yes, I think things will get better, especially the simulation.

Thank you for the wishes, and I hope your 2024 will be fantastic.

Cheers

Thanks a lot, MaverickMongoose; very kind of you.

Sorry for the bragging, but I like to share the "source" of my knowledge.

If you would like some book suggestions, my favorite Color Science book is from Micheal S. Tooms, but the Mark D. Fairchild book has a huge value. It's not a "light" read, but after working through those, things look different. 😉 Pioneers Of Colorscience is a Who is who of this field.

My suggestion is to read Tooms first. If something is unclear, check it in Fairchild's Book; if it needs to be deeper, The Pioneers of Color Science will hopefully close the gap.
Then read the second book, check the third to close new gaps, and go through the third one to finish. This will set a good base.

Sadly, these books are not free.

Enjoy

Hi MFVis,

I hope I get your target correctly.

What you like are two independent systems that work together anyway. Correct.

Here is a suggestion

I baked the Voronoi Fracture setup into an Alembic and de-activated the initial Voronoi Fracture setup.
Voronoi Fracture Object selected: Object Manager> Object> Bake Alembic.

Since the motion of the sphere is short, I just traced it. While moving and matching the position, I keyframed the start and end of it, then one in the middle, and perhaps some more.
In the F-Curve Editor, you will see a specific Curve now. That should work already just fine.

In the example, I took an F-Curve. Snapshot, and deleted all keyframes except the first and the last, then called up the Snapshot and used only two keyframes to shape the F-Curve. It is smoother that way.

My best wishes for your project

Thanks for your feedback, deal-cake.

I'm glad it is useful for you.

Let me know if there is something else. Please for new themes, a new thread.

Enjoy your weekend

You're welcome, GegBollela.

It looks like you found your workflow. Yes, Remesher is a good idea. I will add the file to the screen capture. It works with Split and Thicken, while the Fracture can provide even colors.

Enjoy your weekend.

You're very welcome, object-kind.

Let me know if you have a question; I'm happy to look into it.
The later version is perhaps the easiest to work with for this setup.
The core here is in the "Glue" section of the Voronoi Fracture.

Cheers
