Tutorial-3D Spikey Ball


This awsome 3D spike ball came be made in less than 30 seconds and is one of the most awsome things you will ever see! :smiley:

  1. Create a new document 500x500 with a transparent background. **Press D ** to reset the colors

  2. Fill the layer with** Black**

  3. On the same layer, create a perfect circle marquee and go Filter > Render > Clouds.(Make a perfect circle marquee by pressing shift when making it)

DESELECT! CTRL-D

  1. Go Stylize > Extrude and use the following settings:

Type: pyramids
**Size: ** 20 pixels
Depth: 255 Random

  1. You are basically done at this point. Go Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation and enter the following settings:

These settings are my favorite and can be changed in any way.
Hue: 209
Saturation: 69
**Lightness: ** 0
Colorize: yes

Yay you are done!

Optional:

Change the Extrude settings around to get different spikes!

You can see a finished example on my Sig…

I have been into making “spikey balls” with C4D lately.

Enjoy…

oh God no…not the return of the spikey balls.

They are…EVERYWHERE…

RUN FOR YOUR PATHETIC LIVES!!!

Looks more like a hair ball :lol:

:run:

gp

looks like the stage has been set for a spikeball battle…

Hmmm…

I would be interested in that.

no offence but ive seent that at so many places but thats good u can do many spins of that

I would totally agree with that. There are more C4D tutorials on spikey balls than there are grains of sand on all the beaches in the world. It’s almost tough to find any tutorials worth a hoot when you have to wade through the sea of spkey ball tutorials!
