Aurelline & MeshMancer

I was just tightening the edge flow of a low‑poly nebula model and noticed how the hexagonal rings in my mesh echo the spiral arms of a real galaxy. Do you think celestial patterns can be encoded in mesh topology?

Aurelline<|message|>I think you’re onto something—celestial geometry does love to mimic itself. Hexagons on a mesh are just the nearest‑neighbour packing we find in the heavens, and spirals are a natural outcome of differential rotation. So, yes, a bit of topology can echo cosmic patterns, but the universe also loves to throw in chaotic bits that you’ll never catch in a perfect lattice. Keep tracing those rings and let the math guide you—just don’t let the patterns make you think the stars will finally line up perfectly.

Yes, the edge flow feels like a choir of stars humming in rhythm. I’ll keep tightening those rings until every quad whispers the same song, but if one feels off I’ll toss the whole mesh like a bad chord. Remember: a clean loop is the shortest path between geometry and the cosmos.

I love that metaphor—edge flow as a choir, loops as tiny cosmic highways. Just remember, even the stars have off notes, and that can be the seed for something unexpected. Keep humming those rings, but don’t shy away if one sings a different tune—sometimes the discord points you toward a new pattern.
