rigid body drop

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-08-28T06:44:20+00:00

For this animation I used a bunch of different sized meshes and dropped them on a plane using the rigid body physics simulation

gravity change

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-07-16T07:15:05+00:00

for this video I used some cell-fracture shards to drop to a surface and then I turned of the gravity and activated a forcefield at the original position of the fractured object to make the shards come back

cluster

For this animation I used a bunch of small objects with rigid body settings and used a forcefield as an artificial gravity well to make them cluster around it

bTrace Cell-fracture experiment

Nikolaus Gradwohl2014-05-26T06:10:21+00:00

For this animation animation I combined a cell-fracture explosion and some particle traces using the bTrace addon. To make the shards of the plane move I placed a force field below the shards and turned the gravity off. The particles are not influenced by the force field, but by a turbulence field placed above the plane.

light bounce

Nikolaus Gradwohl2014-05-19T06:22:11+00:00

for this animation I used the rigid body physics simulation of blender. The only lightsource is the icosphere that bounces through the peg board

blender cell-fracture experiment

Nikolaus Gradwohl2012-09-09T07:50:51+00:00

This is an animation that uses the cell-fracture addon, which gets included into blender 2.64.

This is my first render using the blender 2.64-testbuild2
