|
Create a Terrain and click on the [E] button (arrowed) to enter the Terrain Editor.
|
|
|
Click on New. Leave the Grid Size at 128 and make the brush as large as possible. The hardness should be at minimum i.e. maximum softness. |
|
|
Centre the brush in the middle of the terrain canvas an without moving the mouse click the left mouse button about 5 times. |
|
|
Now reset the brush size to the size of the required base. Select a grey shade about 4 steps up from the bottom black. Centre the brush and click again about 4 to 5 times. |
|
|
Here you see the result of the last operation. |
|
|
Now drag the bottom end of the clipping bracket up slightly to define the edge of your bowl. The surrounding area should turn red. |
|
|
Now return to your scene editor and turn the bowl the right way up and give it a texture - here I've used brushed gold. Altering the Y Size value will alter the depth and turn the shallow bowl into a plate or dish. Dishes and plates produced in this manner will not exhibit the plygonal edges often seen in imported DFX models. |
