Hi, 

 

How can I achieve bulging as shown in the image ()? I know it somehow should work with morphing and handles but I could not achieve it so far. Could you give me a detailed description how to approach that? 

 

Thanks a lot in advance!

    To get bulge shape you can refer below hypermorph tutorials:(Morph Volume concept)

     

    HM-3610: Shaping a Dome Using Cyclic Symmetry

    HM-3620: Shaping a Bead Using Cyclic Symmetry

     

    If you have proper reference geometry for bulge shape then with domains & handles concept/map to geometry will also work.

    Thanks Rahul, I could not do it with morph volumes as I have an arbitrary shaped object. However, I was able to accomplish it with creating domains and morphing it this way (similarly as shown in the tube tutorial). 

     

    Thanks for the tutorial link!
