Deformers!

I've been diving into the world of deformers this week and it's opening up a whole new world of pain. Especially if you want to do something more substantial than make a ripple effect...which by the way, is one of the few things you can feast your eyes upon in the demo below. It's not as if you can do the same with a standard non-linear deformer in Maya*..

I'm going to try and work on a more functional collision deformer soon, but I think the next few posts will be devoted to demonstrating some basic things you can do with the Maya Python API. All I need to do is think up some good examples! :)
