Sculpting Fabric
Kent Trammell shows that you don’t always need a cloth simulator to model great fabrics in 3D.
Fabric and clothing are very common for sculptors interested in character design. Reconstructing the believable behavior of fabric is an art in itself. Initially it can be intimidating due to its apparent complexity while seeing how bad fabric can look when it’s sculpted incorrectly. But in reality, fabric behavior is governed by simple principles. In this exercise we’re going to practice these principles to prepare us for sculpting realistic fabric every time.
