Cosmic Blobs Tutorials - Modes, Bend, Scale & Join

Cosmic Blobs permits us to design, decorate and animate our blobs using three different modes. The Modeling Mode is where we create the shapes for our blobs, the Decoration Mode is where we add color and 'stickers' like eyes and the Animation mode is where we set our blobs in motion to music in a variety of ways. Tutorial #5 introduces you to the Cosmic Blobs Modes.

In Tutorials #6 through #10 we begin to introduce some tools only available in the Modeling Mode.

The 'Modeling' mode of Cosmic Blobs includes a number of tools to help you reshape the basic blobs into models that you envision. Among them are the 'Bend' tool which, as the name implies, allows you to bend objects into new shapes; the 'Scale' tool that permits you to resize your objects and the 'Join' tool that creates a single object from two separate objects.

For your convenience, here are links to the previous tutorials. If you haven't already watched them, we suggest that you use these links to see them now.
