I love CATIA and I love fencing.
So in celebration of both, I present you a Fencing Mask realized with:
- Human Design: To have a human reference for the size of the mask and nicer renderings
- Visual Scripting
- The algorithmic approach is essential to create easily patterns like for a grill, list manipulation is key.
- The Soft Body Solver helped me create a more realistic looking padded bib for the mask
This design is build using methodologies introduced in these two wikis:
Like in the Weave Pattern tutorial, steel wires are a pattern of splines created by mixing lists of offsetted points. In this case I used the Line Normal operator to translate the points normally to the surface.
The model is quite heavy to share here, but I will progressively share explanations of some of the logic used.
