Reply To: Lattice and Shrinkwrap

OK, I did it with the assistance of this video tutorial and in short, this is how.

Three objects, in this instance – the Eye, a Lattice and the Head.

• Subdivide and Smooth the Eye and the Head
• Parent the Eye to a Lattice – Object (Keep Transform). Make it just big enough to encompass the Eye. Give it resolution U 10, V 1 , W 10. The Eye should be sitting on the V.
• Add a Lattice Modifier to the Eye and select the Lattice as the Object.
• Add a Shrinkwrap Modifier to the Lattice and select the Head as the Object – Wrap Method – Project, Snap Mode – On Surface, Axis – Y, Check both Negative and Positive.
• Set Transform Pivot Point to 3D Cursor
• Select the Head and move Cursor to Selected
• Move the Eye around the Head with RR

But now I have a related issue. When I add a second eye in exactly the same fashion, it is skewed! I’ll keep at ti 🙂

Thanks all!
