  Ribbon unfolding, but with a twist

  Hi

  I’m trying to get my ribbon to unfold, which I’ve pretty much got- but the final needs to look like this:

  So far i have this:

  Any idea how to get the right side up a little and tilted?

  This is my setup:

  Hi Joanna,

  From your image it looks like the ribbon is lying on the XZ plane, and elongated along the X axis. If so, I think you just need to adjust the bend deformer’s H rotation parameter. If the ribbon is oriented differently, try adjusting one of the other HPB parameters until you find the right one.

  In fact, in your current setup it looks like you have already adjusted the proper parameter for the left bend deformer, so adjust the same one, probably in the opposite direction, for the right bend deformer. Hope this helps.
