Hi,

I'm looking to procedurally grow a wire sculpture similar to the one in the photo



I can do vein growth and space colonization fairly well, but I'm not sure how to create this wrapping around effect and have them interact with each other.

Any ideas?

Cheers

This post has a scene that shows cloth wrapping around a tube. Maybe you can modify it?

Simple approach, play the anim to see it growing.
Try to avoid overlapping via attribute….

new version, added comments
