The Beauty of Bezier Curves [video]
- PaulHoule 5y agoThey aren't beautiful if you have a picture in your mind that you want to realize. It hit me one day that some of the best character designers in the world didn't know any better than I did how to draw anime characters with Bezier curves.
- Syntonicles 5y agoThat sounds like a case of using the wrong tool for a job. That's like saying that Computer Aided Design is inelegant because it's hard to get the shading right on your life-drawings. I wrote programs that tool arbitrarily long path lists and connected them with Bezier curves - not because they lend themselves to creating art but because I had constraints on the smoothness, curvature and number of inflection points of the compound path.
