solidstatedesigns Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I am trying to create a set element and have been unhappy with the results, so I thought I would tap the wealth of knowledge here. I am trying to create a cone of fabric that is wrapped around a hoop and tapered in the center. Picture a hula hoop with a sheer fabric threaded around it so it appears pleated, but is hollow in the center. One hoop on top and one hoop on bottom. In the centre there is a tie that makes the fabric taper in. I am able to get the shape various ways, but the pleated texture, and taper effect is the problem. Open to ideas... Thank you.

Cris with no H Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 (edited) try a pleated fabric image texture, with image transparency, applied in a Perimeter mapping. Cris Dopher Edited November 29, 2007 by Cris Dopher Quote Link to comment
