XIII. Class Work. Paint effects

The third Maya class has been useful to learn about Paint Effects tool. This tool allow us to create a lot of different effects, environmental elements, water, animals... To start with this we create two planes and we made this paintable, like the photo you can see at right. 

At the next step we started to create some paint effects like grass, sea stars, bubbles... (you can see it at the photo). All off this elements are in Window>General editors>visor and here we can choose the effects we want. Moreover we applied some colour to the background using some rendering tools and the Hypershade (where there are the materials). Here we could put different colours to the planes we'd created and a ramp effect to simulate the sky.

With this tool we can create a ocean water, so I think that's it very interesting and useful to the future to create all the effects we want.

We also used that to create a face like the follow one. We used the same tools (paint effects) to made hair and the other elements of the face, but first we've made the sphere paintable.
