Hello
This may be a really basic question, but I can’t seem to find a way to transform a basic plane into a sphere…I can do it in After Effects, but I’d like to do in full 3d.
I’ve tried various deformers, like Spherify, Shrink wrap, and Wrap…Is this possible?

Thanks!

Hi Alex,

Yes, there are several ways to do it. Here are three examples:

If you need anything else, please let me know.

All the best

Ha, wow, these are great!  I hadn’t thought of the tension parameter in the Wrap deformer, it gives a really nice effect!

Thank you!
