Bend Stiffness and Plasticity are somewhat mysterious properties when starting out with Vellum but they're actually pretty simple to use and can create some really cool effects. Add depth and variation to your sims by combining both procedural and hand-painted techniques.

    This is great. Is there a method to animate stiffness or bend values? Something that would go in the vellum solver I suppose. I can't grasp it.
  • @javideas
    Is it possible to make it like that but flat, to get "glue paper" effect?
  • @SmokeSkreenPrime
    Just discovered your channel...love what you do, excellent tutorial. Just a thought, would you please consider editing out the slurping noise when you take a sip? I do not mean to offend.

  • @LeonardoMastrogiovanni
    nice tutorial but maybe a bit long winded in the beginning and I hope you stopped slurping coffee straight into your microphone.
