I'm not a beginner anymore, but I still like to watch this series, because you can lern something from every video. even if its just a workflow that you haven't thought of. Thanks for the over hundred tutorials you did in the past years.
I'm not a fan of 15mins+ tutorial videos, but this is one of those that I like. Not too fast, not too slow, no useless talk, straight to the point, and clear. Thank you!
My paint was being applied to the opposite side of the knife. To fix this, I selected everything in edit mode (tap A), then I went to Mesh > Normal > Recalculate Outside. Then I was able to paint the side I was looking at.
2:27 the Texture slot section has been moved to the top of the second scene. It is still called Texture Slot (if you have trouble finding it, it’s above the strength blue bar)
Great tutorial series! Just a small tip (if I may) (and perhaps it's already brought up by someone else): You can view the other side of an object immediately by pressing these keys: Top View: Numpad 7 Bottom View: Ctrl + Numpad 7 Front View: Numpad 1 Back View: Ctrl + Numpad 1 Right View: Numpad 3 Left View: Ctrl+Numpad 3 So just add 'Ctrl' to your familiar Numpad key to see the opposite side immediately. Thank you so much! Peter Schermers
For anyone who’s serious about learning Blender, I just purchased/ finished the Blender 2.8 Launchpad tutorial from their site, and its fantastic. Thank you CG Boost for the awesome content! 👍👍
This function looked intimidating to me at first, but now I get it. It's o much easier than I had imagined- nicely done tut! Also, I absolutely love the wooden apple!
For those of you who can’t find the display tab and change the texture alpha (on the more recent versions of blender) to change the opacity of the image it is now in the cursor tab and change the texture opacity
CG Boost I am the thankful one! It's obvious there's a lot of work put into these tutorials, and we're benefiting a lot from it. I'll be happy to support you.
I'm glad I decided to go looking for more information, my current repository of info was limited, and I didn't think there would be a solution to my problem. But with you, it saved me a whole lot of hard ache and time. I'm only beating myself up for not looking for it sooner.
For those who - like me - could not paint anything while in "paint mask" mode (the two squares near to "texture paint") in the step in which you had to hide the apple and paint the stem only. Going out of "paint mask" would make the apple reappear no matter what, so I did the following: go on edit mode, select one vertex of the stem > L (select all the stem) > P and separate by selected. Now select all the apple (minus the stem) in the same way, and apply a "mask" modifier. This will hide the apple. Now you can go back to "texture paint" and paint your stem.
wow great tutorial. I didn't know how to do the texturing technique you used here and your step-by step description was great. Especially repeating the process with the various parts and different objects. Thanks!
Love it! I like the way you demo the two objects, by demo-ing the 1st one using hard-surface, to get the basic understanding first. Then, followed by 2nd example, which is organic object. Pretty smart way of organizing the sequence. Thanks!
Mann schön deine gute Entwickelung immer mal wieder mitzubekommen, dein englisch ist mittlerweile in meinem Ohr richtig angenehm kein Vergleich zu vor ein paar Jahren noch, deine Inhalte waren immer schon dehr direkt und auf den Punkt aber auch das wird immer konzentrierter und die allgemeine Qualität deiner Videos ist auch top! Danke für deinen wertvollen Content!
Also same here I have been very scared of the UV I usually try to shrink it or get it off screen, but now I think I know how to kinda use it. I have only been blendering for a year though.
This video is great, like on your udemy sculpting course you manage to makes complicated things simple. I also love the fact that you always are very thorough with every options. Thx!
Thank you for this! It's great when the presenter knows what he is doing, is comfortable in the environment he is teaching, and it makes the entire tutorial so much easier to understand. I actually had FUN in Blender today, rather than just struggling through it like I usually do. I will have to scour your channel for other content. Sub added. Thanks again!
Great tutorial. There are SO many steps to get up and running with texture painting. I think there is definately room for optimization in Blender here. Something like a 'quick texture paint' option... Like quick smoke
Hello, I really enjoy the quality of your videos. Thank you for your hard work...I was wondering if you know how to export textures and materials from blender 2.8 to unity and if so possibly include a tutorial for the best approach...Once again thank you for these tutorials!
This helps so much now. I've been struggling so much putting texture on a sculpture of mine. Uv unwrapping couldn't handle the complexity, and i cannot manually put seams cuz it gets too complex. This will change a lot of my work.
It is a great tutorial ! But at 4'25'' when I choose the mapping option: stencil, and when I move the cursor in the 3D viewport, my image texture do not appear. I have checked the "texture opacity" but it is OK. Do you know why I can't see my image texture ? Thanks.
For some reason when I try to paint with the stencil on the blade, the color isn’t the metallic color. The painting was fine for the handle and I haven’t changed any settings for the blade, so any reason why the color isn’t matching the stencil? Edit: This was solved for me and I forgot to update. It WAS a bug. It worked perfectly after starting over ;)
Glad to know it finally worked for you, @Gredran. I had similar issue. I was only able to paint the knife handle. Both the blade and apple kept projecting this black-ish color. I'm using 2.82
If you are asking how he got the images, they were photographed images of a real apple then photoshopped to reduce the reflection on the apple skin then all the images were put into one image to use as a stencil.
If you are photographing your own textures, you should use a polarizing filter for your camera to reduce, and sometimes remove reflections, and you get a much better image to make a diffuse texture from.
hi Fabi, you can fix this problem so easily, Click the active tool and workspace settings menu (Right side first section) and then click the color picker section after that please check the color bar and make sure color bar value is not black, if it's black you can drag it up and make it white, that's it.
Happened to me too, thanks V I for the help ! It happens when you press S instead of Shift, which brings out the color picker tool, I keep doing that I don't know why :D
Thank you for this tutorial. I am not in the 3D modeling profession but it was so much easier than I thought to take a model and make texture variations.
To anyone else who had this problem, it's most likely that you are not painting in the correct viewport shading mode. Painting is only visible in the viewport in "Solid" and "Material Preview" modes. Changes made in the final "Rendered" mode are NOT visible in Cycles Render Engine. Changes do show however in Eevee Render Engine's "Rendered" viewport mode. Viewport modes are found in the top right corner of the viewport.
I accidentally hit a key and now the brush is back to default, even though the stencil is still visible. How can I get back to painting with the texture? EDIT: Figured it out. Apparently the brush color needs to be white to transfer the texture. Mine had switched to a darker color
Nothing I paint gets actually applied to the knife, I press left mouse button, image disappears so that I can easily draw, but nothing is applied on to the kinfe :(
For everyone liking the comment, I fixed it but this might not be the solution to your problem, in my case it turned out that I had a mask texture activated, you kust need to press the x on it to remove it. Hope it helped :D
You either take your own pictures and edit them into a page in photoshop like he did, or just grab a bunch of photos online and lay them out in photoshop and just do your best with blending
Crazy that 3 weeks have gone by and not a damn person has tried to help you. I just got to this video today and when I try to texture paint the knife handle in “front view” it paints the back of the handle....
Go to brush settings, then colour picker, then the gradient option. Slide the white slider towards the black. It will make the shading lighter in colour.
I watched the whole tutorial and the only things that have changed i texture slots which are now at the top and display where you find texture alpha and all that which is not really important or needed, great tutorial though 💯
I had some problem with painting. When I where painting he painted on the other side of the knife. It's a Normals issue, in 2.8, in Edit mode, select all and shift + N to recalculate the normals
@@DanPos ever heard of a... Joke? I'm Slovak but I must admit that I had a few German classes at elementary school and I have 2 wursts in my fridge so I think that's enough to classify me as a German lol
You are a fantastic teacher! That is the same way to texture faces using photos, right? Thank you for the amazing Blender tutorial series. Best of the best!
I didn't like this texturing tutorial, because it depends heavily on the reference images. I wanted to learn how to paint the texture by myself by using the built-in colors and transformations.
wooowwww!!! this paint technique is amazing. what a suprise!!! thank you so much zach. i wached more texture paint videos but i have seen this technique for the first time. especially thanks again for this video.
As a person that textures things regularly and I s a begginer. My life has changed. I no longer have to individually texture paint and make awkward transitions when I can just use an image. This SAVED ME! Only issue is. Some things moved and I don’t know what, can you tell me what changed please?

You can view the other side of an object immediately by pressing these keys:
