"The Airborne Liquids Technique"
Okay so Frank will probably kill me for this one, but I had to share it.
I call it the "Airborne Liquids technique". It's definitely a "hack" approach, nothing to be respected at all, BUT it could sure come in handy when you need it sometime. Besides that, I am sure all the imaginative and technically proficient members here will expand on the idea and do way cooler things than the simple example I am about to show you.
Waiver: I am a noobie to Cheetah 3D, and I found this thing totally by accident.
Here's what you do:
Create ball> create isosurface> drag ball into isosurface>make ball editable>select ball and pull with magnet tool>select isosurface>make editable>apply subD>apply material.
Note that you can get different effects by resizing the magnet tool, and you'll have to mess around a little bit and tweak things after you make the isosurface editable, e.g. make some liquid beads smaller, move things around, etc., but it's a cool little trick that is fun to play with and could definitely save some time for specific projects.
I hope this helps someone here, like you've all helped me.
Enjoy!
