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!
Create a new document 500x500 with a transparent background. **Press D ** to reset the colors
Fill the layer with** Black**
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
Go Stylize > Extrude and use the following settings:
Type: pyramids
**Size: ** 20 pixels
Depth: 255 Random
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…
SO…
What do you guys think of it?

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

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!
