Absolute 5 stars. Shoes tutorials are rare, and often long and complicated. You made it seem so simple and relaxing to create! i always wondered what rule(s) dictate how you modify a shoe for the different sizes. I mean, it's not just a scale, certain parts are longer but not all. If you know?
Thanks sir! It is always a delight to see your comment in my notifications :) As far as I know, which is very little for shoes, they have size ratings and width ratings. Like men usually wear D width while women use B width. Other than that, though I might be wrong, I guess a good shoe is one that fits. So, in order to have the right shoe for, let's say a character, we can model the feet first. Make it anatomically correct, including how increase in size affects the proportions and then make the shoe on and around that that feet. I remember seeing this done somewhere for shoe modelling. Can't really put my finger on it but yeah, this would be my take. Happy blending, -S
That's really amazing, next time try to create the fabric texture procedurally like the rest without using image textures, this will be perfect, thanks 🌹
Thanks for the suggestion. I thought of adding that to the tutorial but it is a big enough topic of it's own and not very beginner friendly. So I went this route!
Really great tutorials brother - It would be really appreciated if you explain why you do certain actions so we can build an understanding of our own. Thanks again mate, hugely appreciate your help on this all!
Thanks! I will keep that in mind from next time. The thing is beginners is a very vague generalization. So it becomes hard to make a tutorial perfect for all skill levels. But I understand what you mean I will pay more attention to it ;) -Sayan
9:41 how did you apply the texture to the whole quarter? (What did you do in that jumpcut?) In my workspace the texture applies only to the tongue how do I solve it??
Hi, nice tut, tnx! but have one question what button you click at this moment 20:08 I didn't get it I clicked this invert button but nothing was happen and my texture stayed black and white
Hi Pavel, it's my bad. I see I have made a bad jump cut during the editing process. Basically what I skipped is: You have to plug the "Principled BSDF" output into the "Surface" socket. I did it quickly using node wrangler shortcuts. Hope it helps you out. Let me know if you are still having any problems! Thanks for watching ;) -Sayan.
@@blueinversion soo easy, haha, yeah it has helped, thank you, Sayan :) p.s. one wish for you, this part was way far faster than past one and it was be a little harder to follow, but anyway it was understandable and nice)
Master, I have different areas on the surface of quarter and tongue (10:00). When I change y,z (scale), I change texture of one area (other areas don't change). These areas have the border. I mean my quarter and tongue are not homogeneous. It have different sizes. PS I dont forget we use box instead flat
Sayan, can you please explain to me - How you learn all these nodes and their combinations? It's f..ng a black forest for me and for the most blender beginners here I think! How you do this???
Yes sorry for the jump cut there, what I do is: Connect the principled BSDF output to the material output node (surface socket). What I was doing earlier, i.e. black and white grid is I was isolating the wave texture to a viewer node using a node wrangler addon feature, for getting a better view.
Thank you so much!!!! my first time in blender and this tutorial it is really helpful! but, HOW DO YOU DO THE STITCHES? I will appreciate a tutorial about it... I didn't find something helpful about to make stitches.. THANK YOU!!
Thanks a lot, Claudia! Yes, I know I didn't make the stitches video. I moved on to other projects, by the time this video started getting some views. I plan to make a more in-depth course on sneaker-making. I will include stitches and much more in that. How does that sound? :)
Any good texture repository will do. But mostly paid subscriptions-based websites that I know of. You can find some free textures too, might have to dig deeper. Just search for fabric textures.
Hey Okolie, the specular map I used is just a B/W version of the diffuse texture. Feed it through a color-ramp node. That will automatically generates the specular map.
Mostly yes, because generally the specular map is just a high contrast version of the roughness map. But if you are going for closeup shots of highly reflective surfaces like varnished wood, floors, smartphone surfaces then I recommend making separate images for each map. Most texture sites provide separate maps by default so it is not a big issue these days. Hope it helps. Thanks for watching! ;) -Sayan
Thanks ! I used 1. It is the seamless version. If you will not tile the image you can go for others, but seamless is a must for the demonstrated shader.
bro can you make a tutorial on materials explaining materials from node like metal material needs to be metallic at high and glass needs to be ... etc, rubber material needs this kind of setup in node etc collecting mostly main material used like metal, rubber, plastic, skin, glass, etc cause I dont know any node setup for material can you make a video on it please it would be a great honour for me
Try going into Object Data Properties on the right side panel (green inverted triangle). Under Texture Space uncheck Auto Texture Space, and set all the values for Size X Y & Z to 1. Let me know if it solves the issue.
Hey, like I explained in a different comment : "In short, I used a bezier curve with shrinkwrap around the shoe. Then converted it to mesh. Used checker select and pushed the alternate vertices inside. You can otherwise UV unwrap and manually add the stitch marks in texture paint mode." I felt like making more videos to this series would get lengthy and boring for most. So I decided to keep it to 3 videos. If you have any more queries please let me know. Thanks. -Sayan

@@blueinversion "a good shoe is one that fits" hahha! Thanks, i'll do my researches and share them here maybe. Cheers!
Right? XD And yes, it would be awesome if you do. I will add your inputs to the description if relevant to the topic. Good luck :D
Really good work bro...
You presented the process in a very simple way.
Keep Creating.....

Nice work bro.Very well defined #keep blending.
Thanks man! Good to see you here
Going great
Right! Thanks for the input :D

For the fabric part, you can assign 2 materials faster by changing material index offset to 1, so you don't need to apply the modifier
Awesome! This is a much better solution. I have added your comment to the description. May more people see it.
thank you very much for these tutorials friend 🙏
🏆
Thanks for checking out the channel! Cheers :D
Dude your a genius
Just a lot of practice haha. Thanks for your kind words :)
May be next time you would limit the poly count that project would blow up my cheap darn lap top
@@zephaniahdejene1746 Yeah the viewport can get laggy. This isn't too heavy a scene though, does the final rendering work fine?
Great tutorial 👌 👍🏻, can u tell me about ur pc build and all necessary hardware u use .
Sayan, can you please explain to me - How you learn all these nodes and their combinations? It's f..ng a black forest for me and for the most blender beginners here I think! How you do this???
Maybe a tutorial series, on the shader nodes. Or maybe a single indepth video tutorial. Either way I have plans to cover this topic in the future! :)
Sayan, please help - what do you do on a 20:09 min to observe the effect properly (when black and white grid changes to normal view, white)
Yes sorry for the jump cut there, what I do is: Connect the principled BSDF output to the material output node (surface socket). What I was doing earlier, i.e. black and white grid is I was isolating the wave texture to a viewer node using a node wrangler addon feature, for getting a better view.

@@okoliechinedu7426 Awesome :)
nicee tutorial compared to others

Very amazing tutorial but please how do I download the specular map
Texture work is being done in my shoes, only in the tongue, not on the qurter, only the color is showing. How to fix it
Love the course. But I have the fabric texture but can get the other two.
Can use color ramp to convert roughness map to specular?
Mostly yes, because generally the specular map is just a high contrast version of the roughness map. But if you are going for closeup shots of highly reflective surfaces like varnished wood, floors, smartphone surfaces then I recommend making separate images for each map. Most texture sites provide separate maps by default so it is not a big issue these days. Hope it helps. Thanks for watching! ;)
-Sayan
Thank for the info, just in case specular is not included. Im doing character modelling and my shoes is suck, your tutorial is very helpful.
In my opinion you can surely use this trick for your project. It won't be noticeable at all :)
how to install that add on 09:12
and pls do mooooore tutorials :-)
Really well presented. Easy to follow. Thanks a bunch.
Cheers

PS. FabricPlain0147 - which one did you choose 1,2 or 3 image or all
Thanks ! I used 1. It is the seamless version. If you will not tile the image you can go for others, but seamless is a must for the demonstrated shader.
@@blueinversion Thanks mate.
depth not coming in wave texture only vertical lines are their . please help
hi i cant find the normal and the specular
this is insane...
Thanks for stopping by! More videos coming soon ;)
@@blueinversion Thank you so much for these tutorials, man!
How to get the specular texture ? It's not there on the link
You will have to make them yourself using gimp, photoshop or other apps. I talk about it in the tutorial.
@@blueinversion Do you have any instructions how to make it? I am a beginner and I got there and now I am bit stuck :( Maybe I can somehow replace it?
It is just a black and white version of the diffuse map.
@@blueinversion I don't know what that means.
black and white version of the texture.
bro can you make a tutorial on materials explaining materials from node like metal material needs to be metallic at high and glass needs to be ... etc, rubber material needs this kind of setup in node etc collecting mostly main material used like metal, rubber, plastic, skin, glass, etc cause I dont know any node setup for material can you make a video on it please it would be a great honour for me
the sole material link doesn't work :(
i have download ur blend file, so how can i download the texture from the blend file?
Link to the texture is separately given, check the description. I cannot pack that in due to copyright. Thanks for watching ;)
no i mean the other texture
the fabric plain 0147 i've already download
As far as I remember it should come packed with the blend file. Did you check after opening it in blender?
yeah i opened it and found it but how do i apply that texture to my project?
When I use the box setting on my fabric texture for the quarter, it still comes out all stretched. Any idea why that might be?
Try going into Object Data Properties on the right side panel (green inverted triangle). Under Texture Space uncheck Auto Texture Space, and set all the values for Size X Y & Z to 1. Let me know if it solves the issue.
Blue Inversion no luck unfortunately
Send me the blend file support@blueinversion.com
Blue Inversion sent!
Will take a look just now, and will reply on email.
how you add stitches?
Hey, like I explained in a different comment : "In short, I used a bezier curve with shrinkwrap around the shoe. Then converted it to mesh. Used checker select and pushed the alternate vertices inside. You can otherwise UV unwrap and manually add the stitch marks in texture paint mode."
