I’ve seen a Fibermesh tutorail on making vines but personally don’t like that way. The way I’m looking for is using an insert mesh with curve functionality & follow the surface as rope does.
Thing is, is there a way to make the geometry shrink across the length ?
The Curve Tube Snap and Curve Multi Tube brushes are good for this.
You can cause the tube to taper by enabling the “size” function in Stroke> Curve Modifiers> Size . It would probably look more organic to do this by hand though, with the Inflat brush set to a low Zintensity. Hold down Alt while using it to taper instead of inflate.
Thanks, been a great hep.
