Hi all,

I'm using fractal noise to create horizo= ntal lines, but I'm really struggling to come up with a way of warping = those lines into that shape.


I've played around with all the warping effects but don't = seem to be getting close to what I'm after in any kind of neat way.

I feel like I'm missing something really obvious = as I don't usually struggle to recreate abstract imagery like this in A= E, but it has been a long day!

Any help much appre= ciated!

Cheers,
