Hey guys. I want to make a model of a piece of ribbon tied into a loose bow. Any suggestions?

 

Basically start extrding and looping and extruding and looping. If your bow was one of those fancy bows wiht lots of curls the dup wizard would probably do it. but I dont think you need that.

 

there's a plugin out there that will extrude anything along a spline. make one spline thatdoes the path of the ribbon, then extrude something flat along it.

HA! I just went thru this exact same dilemma a coupla months ago for a Christmas TV spot:

I found that by using 'muscle-motion'(in an action) I was able to get the ribbon untying just the way my client wanted to see it, and then I let SimCloth takeover and do the rest...mad for a nice :30 TV spot done entirely within A:M.
