Storm over Meatballs (3,305 kb)

.

This was my first introduction to Carrara. I created this with the demo as I was learning. I came across an object called a metaball and thought it wold make a good meatball.
Then the volumetric coulds came in and this is what I got.

Just for fun I ran a negitave metaball past the 2 positive ones to give a moving dent.

Metaballs are interesting objects in that the closer one gets to the other, the more the attract and try to stick together into a blob.

I wanted to cerate a moving version of my first try with Carrara. It seems like it will be a nice addition to my toolbox.
The animation is a bit choppy but you get the idea. The AVI is much cleaner.

Another one is on it's way!
