starting from a sphere (with bending stiffness and self-collision) and reducing the volume of gas inside results in some interesting crumpling patterns

    Beautiful! That's a lot of triangle, how long did it take?

    Thanks all. Arthur - it runs at around 5fps on my laptop. The simulation is using 5000 triangles, but I'm also subdividing downstream of Kangaroo with Weaverbird's Loop subdivision to get a smoother appearance without slowing things down too much.
