Hey everybody, In that tutorial by Litst there is a can with ridges just like the real thing. How'd he do that? Thanks, Juggler

you could draw the ridges in the spline modeler and that wouldn't be to hard. Understand what I mean? Brian

Well I almost understand. A screen shot of the extrusion envelope might help. Maybe just an explanation will do. Thanks for your help.

Hi Juggler, The can is a simple cylinder :) . The little ridges are made with a mixer of Wires and Scanlines fuctions in the bump channel . To follow the tutorial, you really don't need to make a complex shader, anything will do . litst

Apx setting sfor bump channel;

Bump channel =
MIXER
source 1 = Wires with H' count "0" V' count 2
Width = "0" height = 60

source 2 = empty(none)

Blender = scan lines count 60 horizontal

This could also be modeled using spline. It could also be modeled using a spline and linear wave function with limits set to 20-80.

I am a very unique person... Just like everyone else

The reason why i used bump for the riddles is because i wanted the label not to show the riddles . If i had modeled the riddles of the can, making a flat label would have require another object and, well, modelling was not the topic of this tut ;)
