I highly recommend Grant's courses. I've watched others who attempt to learn blender by scrabbling various RU-vid courses together and they tend to struggle a lot. The simple fact that Grant uses a thought out lesson plan where each step builds off of the last means that you can move in a consistent direction, rather than randomly through various steps. Grant makes mistakes on purpose to show you how to escape from, and correct, those mistakes. Above all, he has a consistent pacing and calm but cheerful demeanor that make his lessons easy to follow.

Nice to read. I actually want to go for the black friday sale. However, english is not my first language and I'm thinking of getting a german course instead. Dunno if it's better for me though, since I watch almost every tutorial in english by now, (but still struggle with a lot of vocabulary.)

@golemtabak1183 Год назад

@@arti5769 It was the same for me and over time I learned "Blender English". Grant is an excellent teacher. Our apprentices make the same mistakes over and over in Blender and I always say "Didn't you do Grant's tutorials? Do them!" :)

Very informative. I remember the wild west days of blender, with ppl trying to use external programs to uv unwrap because blender was so clunky.

@anettebianca6855 Год назад

wild west indeed - lol!!!

@the_stray_cat 9 месяцев назад

3:22 the other problem with this method is it being ununiform . you need your uv map to be somewhat uniform or else part of your mesh will have higher resolution the others . which when doing things like faces is vary notisable

This is a great explainer video, and kudos to your effort in showing just the right visuals to get the point across! I have made quite a few tutorial videos for other things specifically in my line of work. Your technique is really good, and I appreciate how you explained it. I wish this was around way back in time when I first began using 3D applications and using primitives before actually modeling. One of the biggest turn-offs for beginners is UV-mapping for texture. So, for most beginners, it is easier to use the other texturing methods that avoid the use of UV-mapping. I even changed textures on 3D files provided with the UV maps that the original artist made. That hack got me by... but ultimately, I wanted to create from scratch without doing that reverse process.

@grabbitt Год назад

Thanks

@TheFlyingEpergne Год назад

Could you also do a video on multiple UV maps for 1 or more meshes, thanks!!

@CGSTUDENT15 14 дней назад

That's Great video Coming to blender after 2 months cause of my first year exams now my computer is giving me dome errors when i open any thing but i hope i will fix it in a dayd anyway great video ❤

@raphaelprotti5536 2 месяца назад

My suggestion to really make this 'complete' is an explanation of UVtile space and the different nomenclatures. Like UDIM and Zbrush/Mari.

Any big good tips for seams with models that have beveled edges other than using a bevel shade?.

@grabbitt Год назад

same rules apply really. do you find you get errors?

@sirarzey Год назад

Hello Grant. When i export my final object into FBX format, and then import the object into a new blender project, the Material tab/textures in viewport display are now set to alpha blend and not opaque as its supposed to be. I can of course flip it back to opaque and the object works fine, but how do i export it as opaque? Is this a glitch? I am using 3.1.2 version of blender. Cool videos btw.

@grabbitt Год назад

I've not encountered this problem before sorry

@shardaojha7558 Год назад

Hello can you make a video in which you show us how to apply texture on object step by step on a item. It will help a lot

You can now but you weren't when I released the video

@sabrishparker7629 Год назад

Sometimes a white patch occurs while unwraping on uv islands (like at 6:52) could you tell me why this happens?

@grabbitt Год назад

I think nuthatch just the selected face

@duftcola Год назад

Ok but what do you do if you have an object made out of different meshes like a game asset . How do you uv unwrapp that ??

@grabbitt Год назад

Select the whole object and go into edit mode and unwrap

@Jez2008UK 6 месяцев назад

What do you need to do if/when your texture isn't a square one - oftentimes I'll have a wood texture (eg Arroway) which aren't square at all :) - what to do then?

@grabbitt 6 месяцев назад

The uvs adjust automatically.

@Jez2008UK 6 месяцев назад

@@grabbitt Respectfully, that isn't true. I looked it up (because I needed to) and the answer is you need to scale the UVs in either the x or y axes by the aspect ratio of the image (and I tried it and that works).

@johnjoeparrot Год назад

Do you recommend any UV plugins for characters models?

Uv pack master I think it's called could be useful

@plinker439 27 дней назад

My question, do you unwrap a whole character to one UV map or more? What is the practice of this?

You can do multiple if you like

God how much I hate unwraping. I work with product visualizations and unwraping shrinkfoill in such way that 2D design looks good is such pain in a booty.
