Growing Flowers
by Aziz Khan, Afghanistan


Step 10:
It’s time to play with other settings, open up attributes editor by (CTRL + A) click on the tab called (Daisy Small1) and then do the same settings or your preferred settings. Remember to check the box called (Forward Twist).


Step 11: Scroll down to bottom and expand the tab called (Tubes), then expand the (Growth) tab and then (Branches) tab and choose the following settings.





Step 12: Now open the tab (Flowers), (Turbulance), (Spiral), (Bend) and go for same as below settings...








Last but not the least, the important area where we will animate our flowers, expand the tab called (Flow Animation) you will see few options there and check all boxes called (Texture Flow, Stroke Time, Time Clip). Check them one by one, hit play button and you obviously will see the difference what they dose.

Note: (Flow Speed) is dealing with the speed of flowers or whatever related with Maya's Visor how they grow fast or slow, the lower the values the growth is slower, higher value = faster growth, so keep this in mind.





This concludes our tutorial, hit the play button and you will see flowers are growing along the time randomly once they reaches the growth limit stop's and affects by wind and turbulence. Here is couple of my test render at different frames and you can see the difference between them.
