The task of this project was to create a simulation that filled an object in a natural or organic way. I found this 3d scan of a statues head and Instead of doing something crazy for my simulation I decided to try and stick to the original material of the statue. Since It was made from marble I wanted to try create a slate type growth effect where it would look like slabs of stone or marble. To create some narrative to the simulation i presented it as if it looked like an award or a mantle piece, keeping the shapes looking like stone but the growth like molten gold.
