Blender Beginner Tutorial - Adding Materials & Painting in Sculpt Mode

[@KeelanJon]

Hey hey, in this episode we explore some of the new painting functionality added to Blenders sculpt mode in version 3.3. Not to be confused with the usual texture painting tools which would require retopology and uv wrapping. But I'll jump into those topics another day :)

[@conan240hz]

bro, i love u thank you

[@itscadwallader8963]

these videos are the most useful beginner tutorials I've found, they're brilliant. Thanks man!

[@kenthecaptain]

Thanks Keelan! I've been an artist for a long time, but always wanted to try 3D modeling. Thanks to your video series I was able to finally try it and make my first character head in Blender! It was a female character, but I used all of the same techniques as you, and it came out great for my first try! , I learned so much in such a short amount of time. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your content!

[@officialfadi]

Been waiting for this for a long while! Thank you for making amazing tutorials Keelan🙏🏻

[@KeelanJon]

You're welcome :)

[@s--b]

I made my character look stupid as a joke but this tutorial is so good that he still ended up looking cool after giving him textures lol

[@cwtjones]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I am 45 and just started exploring Blender. Your tutorials are easy to follow and straight to the point. I learned a lot. Thanks again.

[@RitmuKids]

People wanting to teach have many, but few know how to do it. Congratulations for teaching in a simple and direct way everything I was looking for and couldn't find

[@KeelanJon]

Thank you, it means a lot 😁

[@Andriej69]

Extremely useful, you don't really need texture painting with heavily stylized models anyway!

[@jeremyfox3031]

it's so beautiful! i love it 😍

[@louis-philippecrete7671]

thank you !

[@GramOss714]

Thank you very much for the tutorial, are you also going to talk about render settings in the next one or just lighting?

[@KeelanJon]

I think lighting in the next one, and then rendering in the one after 😁

[@GramOss714]

Alright, thank you :)

[@alexandrapud8535]

hm I have no subsurface color setting for some reason. All settings are there (wight, radius e t c) except this one

How do I stop the mirror on the eyes so that they can both look right? since they’re mirrored my character goes walleyed

[@asadkhan701]

What's the difference between texture paint and sculpt paint?

[@WorthwhileWear]

when I try to add color to the pupil nothing happens. Do you know any solutions to this?

[@SomeoneTookGameBoiiiii]

I need help, for the adding materials, I completed everything up to 5:13 and my head is still white. Is there anything I may have checked on accident?

[@SociallyAwkwardMisfit]

The paint won't work. It'll paint the hair but when I try to isolate the head it won't work.

[@mxiii872]

When i open the shader editor there are no nodes there. What have i done wrong..i cant add nodes either x

im using blender 2.83, the tool is not there where you show. and when i finally found it it says MISSING UV, TEXTURES. So i guess this is the end of the tutorial for me. thanks, i really enjoy it.

[@KeelanJon]

Hey there, yes the painting functionality in sculpt mode came in a layer version of Blender, if you download a newer version you should be fine to continue along 😁

[@kelseyhunter3310]

I painted my character, but then realized the skin tone was much too light when i switched to another view/ continued on. Now i am unable to go back and edit the color even when i went back to an old file before i went into the color attribute setting! I am so stuck. Any idea what could have happened?

[@carmentamaritballester828]

Hey! Love your content! One question, do you recommend paint it on Blender or it's better to paint it on Substance?? Thank you

[@indianastilts]

Do love these videos and your models. Have a question. What do you do with your models when your finished? Do you put them in games/short video clips? If so I assume you topologise the models as their poly count must be high? Do you also ever UV Map your models as the materials would be too dense?

[@KeelanJon]

Hey thanks for the comment Adam 😁 In the case of this tutorial series I'm just providing some insights into the sculpting tools in Blender, but you're exactly right about retopology, UV unwrapping, texture painting etc for optimisation should there be plans to use these for games/ animation. In my personal work I generally model my characters rather than sculpt, and its mostly for web illustrations, art and as a hobby 😁 I hope that answers your questions

[@indianastilts]

@@KeelanJon amazing yes it does. Your tutorials and videos are fantastic and helped so much but wanted to ask what people do with their completed models just out of curiosity really. Thanks for the reply and answer. You should have a picture taken of all your models taken in one picture like a mash up and hide Wally in there haha

[@KeelanJon]

@@indianastilts You're very welcome, and that's a good idea! 🤣

[@user-bt1fj7vq7e]

When I clicked assign for the pupil, it only went in one eye. How can I fix that? Right now my plan is to just redo the eyeball section, but there has got to be a better way lol.

[@SociallyAwkwardMisfit]

The paint isn't working.

[@fromthxl3546]

When I go into sculpt I dont have a paint option

[@KeelanJon]

Make sure you're using an up to date version of blender 😁

[@jacsu]

In the event that I want to export it to use in unreal engine or something , how will the exported textures work

[@KeelanJon]

You'll need to learn about retopology and UV mapping if your intent is to use a sculpt for games or animation :)

[@legolasstudios]

Im clicking forward slash and it doesnr work 1:40 . I have a spanish keyboard where the numer seven and the symbol / are on the same button, so it doesnt work

[@bdarknessgui]

Hi! Pretty good tutorial, but i got a problem. When I use the paint brush it doesn't paint =( Should I Unwrap it first?

[@KeelanJon]

Hi Guilgerme, thanks for the comment :) In this case we're not following a UV unwrap to texture painting workflow, so there's no need for that. I'm demonstating the new painting functionality in Blenders sculpt mode, which is great for quickly testing concepts before perhaps moving onto retopogologising and UV unwrapping later. If you're not seeing the paint tool working I might suggest ensuring you don't have an existing material on your piece stopping you from seeing your paint, and also ensuring you're in solid view, not material view. Although I explain how to set the paint up in material view later in the video :) Hope that helps!

[@forbiddenbox]

@@KeelanJon Huh, still doesn't paint for me, weird.

[@miteruno]

7:30 subsurface color wheel not showing for me

[@miteruno]

ver 4 changed subsurface controls, i cant do the skin thing, please help

[@DaniZanskar]

Does anybody know how to change subsurface color on version +4.0?

[@lgnrdesign]

Coat option in the same submenus!

[@lyaralee9299]

Hey hey ~ Doesn’t this require painting sss texture?

[@mharunr]

Niceeeee

[@brenda0101]

I don’t have the option to choose a subsurface color. What do I do? In the subsurface section it just asks me to choose a subsurface method and then weight, radius, scale, and anisotropy

[@lgnrdesign]

Use a coat menu to replace subsurface color

[@nxghtimebeats1917]

hmm when I try to paint it wont work, do you know why?

[@dayoliday838]

hola oye sabes como pasar esa textura a un a un mapa uv

[@user-rd3po9hb1k]

I prefer use texture paint. Or is your method better ?

[@KeelanJon]

This is a Sculpting tools series, you'd need to retopologise and uv unwrap if you want to do normal texture painting 😁 In this case, this is a sculpt and is not designed to be optimised for games, animation etc.

[@artur_ku]

great lessons, i will use it for my students and create my own tutorial with russian language if you agree. Thank you for tutorials!

[@lavanimate702]

Hi Keelan please help me in my blender there is no paint tool, how do I make it appear?

[@KeelanJon]

Make sure you're using an up to date version of Blender

It's under mask now instead of paint I believe

That's okay, you can sculpt it anyway, it's kind of like working with clay :)
