Fancy 3D Banner
Hi All,
I have a logo with one of those ubiquitous banners in it that I’m trying to soup up a bit. I’m looking for something more along the lines of the banner in the attached logo, but I’m having trouble figuring out the modeling. I don’t think it’s as simple as an extruded spline, but can’t really get the hang of it. Anybody have any suggestions??
Thanks for taking a look!

There are several ways to achieve this, the most obvious being sweep nurbs along a spline. In this example though, I used a long, thin, subdivided plane, moved the points and edges to get the shape of the banner, then dropped it into a hypernurbs object. The thickness was achieved using the Explosion FX deformer using only the cluster thickness parameter.
Cheers,
Phil

Could you please elaborate on this? I am struggling immensely!

As with most modeling, nine times out of ten it’s better to start of with primitives. Hope this helps:
