About the project
Inspired by my kid's toys and my love for space exploration, this project came to be. It was also a great excuse to practice UV mapping.

3D Printing
I added a 3D printer to my tool set and just wanted to make a page dedicated to the process and progress that I make along the way. My first print is the NASA SLS rocket. I have had a model of it on my hard drive for sometime now and figured it would be a good one to print and see how it turns out.
Printing the NASA SLS ROCKET
Animating the Pea Pod opening presented a tricky task, as we wanted to open in a zipper type manner. The Cinema 4D posemorph was the go-to place to start, however you cannot use fields with it. After some research, when you add in a Morph deformer then you can have access to the powerful fields system to control how to animate between open and closed positions.
