Array modifier.

Artwork Blender Tests
1

Never quite understood the array modifier in Blender. I have used Max before, and there the arraymodifier is pretty easy to understand.

Some days ago i saw a videotutorial on how to use the blender arraymodifier, and i was suprised how to use it. To add a emty and put it as “object offset” to manipulate the array lenght, rotation and scale. In this image i hade 3 arraymodifiers applyed with 3 different emtys to manipulate the arrays. Looks kinda cool.

I think it`s more to come in this thread. I find the arraymodifier very kewlish and easy to use. And one get very stylished abstract art-pices of it.

Wow now THAT is cool! :slight_smile: I’ve played with arrays before, but I think it would take me a while to figure out how to recreate this.

Haha yupp this is really cool.
The array-mod. is a nice little tool to create some nice pic or videos, but you can also create organics, like growing lianes i.e.
