I really appreciate all your great tips videos over the years, and this one's no exception! Also, I love all of the great additional tips that people contribute in the comments =)
Just a little correction and heads-up. While it's true Thingiverse does use Creative Commons licenses, you still do have to check to make sure it is okay to alter files, because they could have the "Creative Commons - No Derivatives" license which means you can't remix or transform the files.
@@ArtisansofVaul Yeah, there's both the "Creative Commons - Attribution - No Derivatives" and the "Creative Commons - Attribution - Non-Commercial - No Derivatives" options that're buried in the middle of the list.
Small suggestion with regards to the Mask brush being used as a tool to designate(?) the Face Sets. Rather than use the Alt M to clear the mask and then start over again... in a case such as this particular example... you could use the "shrink mask" function. It will shrink the mask down toward the tip of the tail, and not "clear" the mask, which means you do not have to go through the process of trying to get the mask to line back up from the start. Is it a must have option? No. But, again... in this case... it would be an option to keep you from having to reselect the area to be masked off. Just make it shrink. Then you could "face set from masked" in the same way, but it is all handled from the two drop down menus that are side by side.
Great video. Thanks for sharing this knowledge. I am a noob in blender but this videos have opened the door to repose models for 3d printing and get more variety out of the models i have without spending extra. One thing i am struggling with is when you take models from games or any other source that were not made with the intention of 3d printing (particularly resin printing) and therefore have lots of hollows inside the model that later on turn into resin pools and screw up the model due to not being supported internally. Is there any easy way to make a solid figure that could only (at will) be selectively hollowed if you want to save resin? Would really love your wisdom on the subject. A video would be even much more loved and appreciated
Another great video. A question though, when i use Draw Face Sets to mark a couple of sections of a model, for example a thigh, lower leg, and foot, and i then Pose the thigh, the lower leg and foot stay where they are and everything gets deformed. But if i use the other method to mark a seam by drawing on the vertexes, then initialise a seam, the whole leg will move if i pose the thigh. Surely the 2 methods should work the same? Am i missing something?
@@ArtisansofVaul after some more playing with it, it seems its more a case of where i select to pose from. But, it doesnt seem to move multiple face sets as one. Ie, if i move the thigh on a body, the lower leg will stay attached, but the foot wont. Is there a setting to select how many sub-face-sets to move as well?
