Adding Printed Graphics to a Product in Blender

[@999velocity5]

This tutorial is like a 1 in a million. You even answered my future questions

[@castleoner]

derek doing a UV tutorial is huge - thank you legend 🙏

[@issac7787]

The amount of free tutorial I am getting here is crazy. Thank you Derek , blessed you.

[@joe_fabricator]

This is great for my new creative push after reading Atomic Habits. Working on new workflows which include Blender and other software. Your teachings are honestly, the best. Thanks now and in advance. Cheers Derek.

[@DerekElliott]

HAHA. I'm also reading atomic habits and have been trying to for about 3 years now.... guess I don't have the reading habit yet

[@joe_fabricator]

@@DerekElliott I hear ya. I'm not a strong book reader and this one was probably the 3rd book in my life I actually started and finished. Just bought a couple more similar books in hopes to change that....and make it a new habit.

[@MrGoldman100]

Unreal channel, you have gained a big fan

[@silverman6888]

my great blender teacher on youtube!!!

[@flonkplonk1649]

Your tutorials are seriously of the absolute best on YT ! And it's easy and convenient to follow the steps! 👍🏻

[@DavidDigark]

Your voice and tranquility makes me calm

[@SodaDjinn]

I also have used this exact method a lot ever since I kinda figured it out. Most of the time I don't even bother getting a monochrome picture and just use a colorramp to determine the outlines. Great tutorial, I can't recommend this enough for quick texturing!

[@WenboZhao]

always enjoy Derek's video, thanks legend😎

[@airo_001]

this was a fun one!

[@DvidFilms]

this was so much better then the other cup tutorials I watched.

[@zeeshanmurtza4709]

Your videos are awesome, I like to watch daily😍

[@DiliniMaduwanthi-xn1xi]

Thanks derrek

[@DKingsz]

Just finished the donut tutorial. I am now working on something similar and wanted to make a little coffee scene. Already modelled the mug but it sucked. Than I saw this tutorial, also the UV unwrapping is very helpful. Thank you for this!

[@DrLazerbeam]

The Donut is the portal we all must travel though. Remember not to be too hard on yourself, every time you try you're learning. Good luck on your journey. See you in a year.

[@BlenderDaily]

the glass cup looks amazing!

[@mediarocker]

amazing as always

[@rahulravichandra7420]

Awesome tutorial Dude

[@ololadeadekanmi9302]

In comparison, it is like instead of telling what a cutlass is, you demonstrated how is can be applied. Thanks for consolidating those tools in a single tutorial.

[@SemageNamalSurendra]

This is just wow! Straight to the point. Thank you sir 🎉

[@cozychorus_as]

Your tutorials are always fun. Love it!!

[@雪鷹魚英語培訓的領航]

Can't wait for LLM copilots to be integrated into Blender! Have it do all the steps, include node stuff, and then you can just go in and reverse engineer its steps to see how it accomplished something.

[@josecustodio9626]

Derek is a legend! Merci beaucoup.🤩

[@nafiz2755]

wow....this was fun and awesome at the same time. not to mention helpful af

[@omnymisa]

Derek, if I do ever get to make money out of 3D you are gonna have to allow me to reward you man, you ae awesome!

[@federicogrilli9289]

amazing, really clear, thank you

[@DerekElliott]

Glad you liked it

[@FilmingPlaces-u1t]

A masterpiece, no doubts

[@aoibluevi]

Thank you Derek 💝💝💝💝

[@marcosrac8002]

I really liked this one, is like going back to the basics is always good to refresh the knowledge

[@GaboG85]

WOW!!! Thanks! I didn´t even know that ColorRamp works for this kind of shaders. I used to mix shaders using alpha channel to neutralize and mask materials, but this way is more efficient. (sorry for my poor english, I only hope that what I said make some sense)

[@DerekElliott]

Color ramp is great but sometimes I use the mix shaders too. Works about the same if you're just using B/W. The alpha can be good too though for a "third" value. B/W/Alpha

[@elizabethfernando23]

Derek, you are the best ❤

[@sinteticspectersis8676]

thank you Derek

[@victorgomezsa]

Great tutorial like always!!!

[@shiznitts]

One of the GOATs

[@g.s.3389]

wow, I have learnt a lot, as soon as I have time Ii will repeat all your steps. thx

[@shokomann]

Thank you so much UVs are always complicated in my head, that helps a lot!

[@zohahs5276]

Nice one looks great please do some videos on freelance side of things how to find product viz project and what to charge for them etc thanks.

[@onurnidayi]

Just what I needed, thanks Bro !!

[@samueljosiah390]

Hi can you please make a tutorial on how you made the image texture!!

[@ruruanimations]

Nice i learned so much in this simple tutorial thank you ❤

[@kavindachamod4330]

Thank you very much, learned lot from your tutorials.

[@AngelAgudoGuerrero]

Muy chulo! Gracias, Maestro!

[@cadcaetutorial2039]

Next lecture coming soon sir

[@noriega211]

Beautiful tutorial. ❤thank you for sharing.

[@darrenberkey7017]

7:50 - What bugs me here is that you don't explain WHY that color ramp affects the colors of the texture map. Do you have another tutorial that explains it in more detail?

[@javadahmadi]

Another amazing video ❤ from 🇨🇦

[@infographie]

Excellent.

[@MohammadFaisal-pj9uw]

How can we use a colorful logo image with white background & instead of changing color of the logo we use the exact color from the image ?

[@Dhanndesign]

thank you for tutorial, it is amazing and i love it

[@oliveryoung.design]

Hey mate cheers for the video! Got a question - is there a method to adding decals/labels like this that doesn’t involve stretching the uv’s in an uneven way? My worry is that if I unwrap certain parts of my object and scale the uv maps differently it will effect the underlying roughness and normal maps, causing weird variations in the texture detail. Does anyone know if there’s a workaround/different method for adding decals which avoids this? I’ve used shrink wrap on an image plane but that can present it’s own problems as well

[@gamersession]

You're the best ❤

[@gemingmonster4763]

Awesome video sir.

[@RiptideStudios1]

You're a damn good teacher. Thanks Legend ❤

[@TheSampatube]

Very well sir

[@jijihadid382]

Many thanks!

[@cafecomblender]

bro made UV editing so easy :o

[@JD-pi7li]

Must watch Video I would say. Thank you

[@AbdurrahmanAlowain]

you are a very inspiring! thank you

[@IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIl]

Could you please make a video on how to model and texture socks? I find it really hard to get those organic shapes perfect. Is there any good trick?

[@DerekElliott]

I guess it depends on what you need them for, but there are probably some pretty cheap models of nice looking socks online. Otherwise, I might start with a reference image or foot shape and play with some simple shapes and subdivision. Then a really nice image texture

[@IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIl]

@@DerekElliott Thanks for your reply! I need the model for creating mockups of different designs for socks. Unfortunately all models I found online are rather crappy and in detail don't really reflect how an actual sock would look like. But maybe I was on the wrong platforms. Do you have some good suggestions where to get good models? Price isn't that much of a problem, I mean it shouldn't be too expensive over the top, but I wouldn't cheap out if I could get a really good model.

[@MoreCreativeGFX]

Amazing and very helpful

[@kk-cv6su]

very helpful. thanks!

thank you are the best thanks for everthing

[@man_art_man]

I got a lot of fun! Nice and simple! For me would be better to see additionally animation skill. How you did this at the begining of your tutorial. Thank you DEREK!

[@DerekElliott]

I'll have to do a video but it's just animating the shader values!

[@man_art_man]

@@DerekElliottgot it thanks! I found your microphone 🎙️ with a bit echo effect … just for information.. ;)

[@TruckerBlitz]

I am trying to export one perfume bottle which I practice but when rendering the image, the text is not visible. I want the image along with text or logo to be appear, any help?

[@DerekElliott]

I'm not sure I understand just make sure the image nodes are plugged in to the right place

[@carfox1860]

Great video! Thanks!

[@romxr200iq]

do you use photo shop?

[@zameerahmed-y4x]

very nice Your videos are awesome

[@joe_fabricator]

Been going thru this cooltorial and not quite getting the same results when I use a color png graphic. Any tips sir?

[@pDevelopment]

Thanks for the Tutorial Mr. Derek, please i will request if you can help Us make a Full Tutorial base on Object UV Mapping we will really appreciate sir.

[@DoObs]

This is awesome Derek. I wanna actually have my own db business cup made...I really have been lazy learning to use Blender more. Especially since I have a 3090 5900x pc.

[@shirazigs]

Thanks for the amazing tutorial. 🙏Could you teach the same process with Octane Render.

[@DerekElliott]

sorrrryyyy I don't ever use Octane!

[@shirazigs]

@@DerekElliott No problem, man. I love your tutorials.

[@victordhalluin2167]

it is fuck**g great ! so simply explained ! thanks a lot !!

Hello! I have a Q. Same light same studio but your project is so shiny. Why is my project too solid. Guys I need your help. Maybe my set up is different.(I don't think so) Can you help me ?

[@waiyan7586]

It have something to do with the size of your object and his. Make sure to measure while you model. For example - A coffee cup should be a coffee cup sized. Not 6 feet.

[@ramupuli6190]

It depends on 3 things 1 Display of Derreck used 2 The video after may be after Compositing. 3 In render view port settings you should change from Agx to Filmic and change noe to very high contrast.

[@daviddipasquale586]

Keyshot spoiled me with this!! I wish we could just drag and drop the label like in Keyshot…

[@Felbify]

Hey, your videos are amazing! May I ask if you've had any formal education or studied something, or have you taught yourself everything? I'm very interested in structured education in the field of product modeling... can you recommend anything?

[@DerekElliott]

I studied industrial design at a university which was helpful to learn basic design principles and stuff but all my blender knowledge is self taught and I did not learn any of that in school

[@Felbify]

@@DerekElliott Wow, okay, there's really a lot here on KZbin, but the quality of your projects is truly exceptional! If you ever release a course, I'll be the first one to buy it. Thank you for your knowledge; I greatly appreciate it.

[@DerekElliott]

@@Felbify I just released 5 courses on skillshare! There is a link to them in the description.

[@Felbify]

@@DerekElliott perfect! I used your link to sign up 🤟

[@kemeraljones]

Good Tutorial But on Blender 4 The red color shows as pink until I drag the Red color to 50% pros on the color ramp. IDK why?

[@DerekElliott]

It's referencing black and white values from 0 to 1. So if your red stop is all the way to the right then only things in your reference texture that are perfectly white will appear red. If you have to move the stop to 50%, then that probably means it's more of a gray in your texture. Nothing wrong with this. That's what the color ramp is good for

[@kemeraljones]

@@DerekElliott Wow. I didn't expect that you would reply back at me. Thank you, sir. You're absolutely right. My Photoshop has started the new document with a 15% grey background. So after I removed the background and added a new white one. it worked perfectly.

[@youngsterlks3531]

which render are you using??

[@DerekElliott]

cycles almost always

you *almost* won a prize

[@gamesense4375]

3rd

[@LucaHeinrich-q7f]

Derek your tutorials are really cool and help us a lot! and its wonderful that any person can have free access to knowledge because of people like you. However I must say that today I didn't finish your video because of the amount of advertisement you put into it. I obviously understand that you have to gain something out of the time you put into this video. But there is a threshold between reasonable and just, I apologise for my use of words but, unbearable. Think about us also when doing your videos, not only about the money

[@mr.fanstastic9010]

Bro i hope you know that majority of your viewers are just beginners, so why dont you go ahead and explain how to shape the model, instead of using a time lapse........

[@DerekElliott]

Sorry the modeling was not the intention of the video here

[@slooowgraphic]

Hi,derek i found this video really helpful for designers and 3d artist i release a video tutorial just like this in my channel, hope you like it 🫶🏻
