In this week’s POLYCOSM video we show you how to take a 2D insect design, translate it into 3D, animate using shape keys and finally create an insect swarm using Blender particles.

Here is the work file, if you wish to take a closer look at the animations or play around with the physics settings.

Happy Blending!
