Script Python programmation (1), to use programmation to make original shapes, a few essential information

Script python (2) : to create a square mesh
Script python (3) : Iterations
Script python (4) : Automating creating vertices

The functions of data selection in Edit mode can be used to locate, and remove, the parasitic vertices and segments which can be bothersome in an export or when we try to render with a wire material .

IPO are keys which control animation curves. The original concept of this tutorail is to use these keys to control "at sight" the changes of the shape.

The purpose of this tutorial is not to exactly reproduce the model above but to make comprehensible the employed method . Every one is free then to develop his own "arabesques" .

This is not a secret for anyone : Blender is not a ray tracer and it works poorly when glass is involved into renderings, showing quite unrealistic results, because it doesn't take into account the thickness of the glass, the diffusion of light or simply refraction through the glass.

The Radiosity helps to achieve a photographic quality rendering : radiosity takes into account all light interactions between two close objects. The result is spectacular most of the time.

This tutorial shows how easy it is possible to play with the Build effect to model a good looking lightning strike. As the Build effect enables the building of an object but not its disintegration, we will also see in this tutorial how to use the Alpha parameter in the Ipo section to make it disappear at the end of the desired lifetime. The material properties shoulb be adjusted on the case by case basis by the practicer of this tutorial, and it will be function of the size and the distance of his/her lightning from the camera. Give a few minutes to different tries to achieve the desired effect.
