Thanks!!

You mf. This is what I was looking for

So it's basically an add on that does the exact same thing as a lattice does without any add ons?

❤

Awesome video and instructions. Thank you from all of us in Hawaiʻi.

I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks for the incredible Photoshop workshop you conducted at PhotoCON Hawaii 2024. Your expertise and teaching style made the session not only educational but also truly magical. The ease with which you navigate through complex techniques and your clear, concise explanations have left a lasting impression on all of us here in Hawaiʻi Your ability to demystify Photoshop and make it accessible is truly remarkable. You didn't just teach us; you inspired us to push our creative boundaries. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion with us once again. Looking forward to more of your amazing workshops in the future! Be well, Stay happy! Ric

Looptools dont show up when i rigthclick on it

Focus on the topic. Seriously. And H264 is not a QuickTime format.

Wonderful tutorial, thank you so much!

I think you mean to say "modifier" and not plug in :D

The problem is that i am trying to project stone block on an uneven surface and the stone block frontal face get deform while they need to stay flat, any clue?

First, I spent an hour trying to get the actual Conform add-on to work properly before giving up in bewildered frustration. Next, I found this tutorial, spent 7 minutes following it and everything worked perfectly. Finally, I spent 10 seconds deleting the Conform add-on from Blender Preferences. Thank you Stephen for such a beautifully clear and concise explanation.

For some reason it dosn't work, as soon as I use the Sw the mesh I want to project just explodes. I looked around but nothing works.

I will have much use for this... Thanks for the tutorial...

TOP!

Excellent. Thank you.

Use your view keys or drag the mouse while holding down the ALT key and pressing the middle mouse button to jump to the exact views.

Thanks. I have been trying to learn Blender and it was great to learn a new way to model things.

Thanks, man! It was driving me crazy.

Thank you!

this is awesome!!

I've been trying for weeks to work out how to do this, to get some complex 3D meshes of proteins to snap to a nanoparticle - basically a sphere, but absolutely wasn't going to pay for the Conform Object plug in! And it works perfectly.

Bruh but sometimes you just have flat surface so you cannot just make flat from half circle, because you already have flat

OMG, Yes, MODO, thanks for showing me that style, especially where to find the styles!!! Thanks

Exatly i want ❤❤❤

Nice design!

worked like charm !

The snapping method looks like a crutch, but it works quite well even for long meshes. Thank's man, your tutorial helped me a lot.

Does this need to be done a specific axis, to work properly? Trying to accomplish this with a design we've been working on here and when we get to the rotate/scale step everything goes wonky haha.

Next update solve it... Here I am 2024 and still having the issue. Thanks, Adobe.

I don't understand what purpose the plane sserved?

just restart ur pc if the erasure and tilt isnt working

Thank you! your tutorial is gold! Well explained, clear and concise. ❤

Great video 😊

You ABSOLUTE Jesus !!! 👁️👃👁️🙏

This video is awesome! very helpful!😃

Stephen, thank you so much. I great video which I will book mark again to watch. Peace.

This tutorial is very good, people need to like this because conform object is a tool that I think everyobody needed atleast once in their life but they didnt want to pay the 12 dollars on blender market. Here we have all that for free. You deserved a like and sub💪

Thank You Been trying to install Nik Worked great 👍

❤️

Muito obrigado, eu estava procurando por um tutorial para isso a muito tempo!!

espectaculaaaarrrr!!!!!!!!!! te amo!!!!!! jajjaja sos un genio. No sabes lo que me ayudaste. me suscribo, like y a favoritos

what about those delaminations though

Very interesting technique, thanks for sharing Steve.
