TENTACLES REVISITED (ZScript Included)

[Mentat7]

I had recently touched on how to make tentacles with the MultiMarker tool in this thread http://www.pixolator.com/zbc-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=005841 Here is yet another example this time using spheres instead of cigars. The script is included. At several points it asks you to save the document. You can just click cancel. It is not necessary to save the doc. As an object there isn't much you can do about the segmentation unless you want to spend more time and add more spheres so as to lessen the exageration of the joints. You can however drop the object to the workspace after you have it the way you want and you can then smudge and blur some of the joins away. Then you can add your texture and material. In the picture below I left the joins relatively untouched as I liked the look but you can do what you want to it. I invite you to experiment. I had to zip the script up do to size.
