Logo to Stained Glass Window/Mosaic (Blender 3D Tutorial) 

Excellent tutorial! I can't wait to make my first vitroux. I had many ideas in mind but my approaches were no so good. Now I have the solution! Thanks!

Fantastic work, love the real world rationale regarding the structure, something I’m likely to miss, and the method for mesh cleanup I had no idea about, many thanks

This is wonderful and has TONS of other applications, thank you so much!!

Gemstone look at end was super cool

I used this for a history project and made my own vector drawing for the outline. It is so awesome thanks!

that random seed trick is awesome. Thanks Chris and Omar!

he's back! good stuff

Great tutorial - gives me many ideas for a comic cover. Thanks !

I enjoyed the second part - shading and displacement - those are both handy tools for stained glass. Instead of using a 3rd party program for creating the pieces, my first thought immediately went to: create logo in blender, knife project onto a plane, rotate it parallel to the y axis, then Cell Fracture. My second thought went to: instead of cell fracture, separate into two pieces: logo and remainder plane. Apply new material with "beveled voronoi" node setup (F1 - smooth F1) to create the lead solder patterns in both pieces.

As a rusted-on Adobe Illustrator user learning Blender 3D, this is a very useful tutorial. Keep up the good work!

Absolutely amazing tutorial, thank you so much!!

Very useful and to the point - good pace, information and narration.

Yes!! YES! Finally someone did a tutorial on stained glass!! Thank you !! So can you do a snow shared next and snow effect ?

Really cool use of this new feature. I especially like the gems version. I like gems.

Awesome tutorial!!!

Excellent tutorial Chris, as usual. Well structured and executed. Easy to understand. Congrats!

Thank you very much! The above video helped a lot in my project!😍❣❣❣

So awesome Chris. If you leave them as individual shapes you could make it shatter like the "stained glass knight" :D

Thank you crispy 😎

Thank you!

Thank you Chris your content deserve million views

Thanks!

Great video!

Good channel!

Using the decimate modifier set to 0.2 twice on the mesh after having done the smooth vertices got the face count down from 3 million to about 250k without much noticeable change. Definitely recommend that or your computer is sure to struggle with this.

I was having issues with the Random Per Island node, it just wasn't stable when rendering the animation and it would recalculate some of the colors each frame, at first I thought that the white noise texture was the node to blame, but after many tries what fixed for me was to apply all of the modifers in my mesh.

nice

I'm having a little problem. When I apply the Random Per Island to the Color Ramp it doesn't randomize the colors. Just keeps it whatever my first color option is. I'm so confused as to what could be wrong.

when doing the glass gets only one uniform color, how do i change that ?

Great Video! I was following along and I got stuck on 5:05 and wanted to know why when I (control + shift + mouse click) and then click all the way to the random per island it does not give me the different colors. I still see the glass black.

When I apply the Boolean modifier to the frame, the glass square's sides merge to the frame. They are clipping and overlapping with the frame and I don't know why. The difference operation looks the same as if I was using union for the Boolean modifier.

Beautiful tutorial! Thanks a lot 🙏 Now, how to make a light source that actually creates those crazy and beautiful colored shadows when it goes through? What would need to be done or to the material to get that kind of effect? 😍 Would love to learn that!

Looks great! But there has to be a procedural only way (except the original logo image). 🙃

chrispy out :D

When i apply the boolean, it doesn't cut through the glass. I must be doing something wrong.

Does anyone know how to expand stroke in clip studio paint?

i can't bake this texture and translate the model to other software because of the geometry in shading. this is a great work but just for blender

Is it possible to animate the individual parts of this stained glass window?

What’s the green node? I can’t seem to find it, I think it says “viewer” that’s the only part I’m really stumped on haha

i can't get the boolean to cut the cube

I think this is great looking! ... but after doing it, then by passing a svg app and doing all the work just in blender, I see no value of not doing it just in blender. All the tools are there in blender to get the same effect or better solely in blender. Am I missing something?

Looks nice, but I thought you could use the Voronoi texture somehow :)

Been following this tutorial for a few days and cant figure out why my glass wont pick up any shine through the window!! Any help?

Would it be possible to add this mesh + stained glass to a sphere or a 3D ovale shape ?

limited dissolve doesnt seem to work for me im still stuck with a million lines and repeating it doesnt seem to clean it up either : (

what would be nice would be a way to do it in grease pencil maybe like it's a shame this tutorial needs a commercial vector tool (i have heard of this one though and hear it's very good)..... but more than me being cheap i'd like to contain the workflow to one app

Thanks so much for this tutorial !! But... I have a problem, I did the tutorial in eeve... the result is beautiful I love so much my stained glass :) !! ( thanks to you !!!) but when I switched to cycle, my stained glass become black.. Do you know why ? I need to bake..

2.82 beta... been working ok for you? I really want to get this new 'random per island'... BUT don't want all my project messed up (on 2.81).

When i import the SVG file in Blender i'm getting the entire square frame filled in, anyone know how to fix that?

Thought I'd give this a go and designed my piece using Krita, only to discover that Krita doesn't have an Expand Stroke tool :(

where does this lovely accent come from ?

Boolean doesnt work, it leaves hole in some place where there should be glass, I did everything thrice and it still doesnt work.

This is a comment you would love to read.

Would be great to explain but not using photoshop, not everyone has money to pay for Photoshop

nice
