Modeling a Leather Handle using Maya Shrink Wrap (Part 2)

Build a second approach to wrapping a leather handle by duplicating cylinder rings around the object, then use Shrink Wrap with closest point and vertex normal projection to conform geometry, cleaning up clipping with edge loops and a new material; also see how to use a nonlinear Bend deformer so the wrap works on curved handle shapes.
