One of the keys to the whole baggy skin look is to apply the Vellum Post Process in order to really visualize the baggy skin. If you simply use the raw look straight out of the Vellum Solver, you’ll have a hard time visualizing the baggy skin.
The whole Vellum scene setup for the baggy skin effect requires a lot of tweaking of the Vellum Constraint parameters, adjust the Stiffness, Damping Ratio, and even Rest for both Stretching & Bend properties.
I start off with some very very simple Vellum setups to explain some Basic Concepts and then apply these Basic Concepts onto real life scenes, like the Baggy Skin effect and Flat Tires effect.
