Blender Secrets - Extrude in Sculpt Mode

Using the Mask brush in combination with the right Stroke settings, you can quickly create complicated mask shapes that you can then extrude and remesh. This can be convenient for creating hard surface shapes in Sculpt mode.

Bloody hell, this one's powerful

[@mastafoo886]

This adds more refinement to something i already knew. This is one of the best channels for sure

[@piorism]

Such a useful way to work. And FWIW, To an extent this can also be made semi automatically over a complex surface (without having to drag the Move handle) by using the "inflate" sculpt filter, with a mask with some blurring applied. Although the transition won't be as sharp as shown here of course.

[@kuwin-b9v]

Great job，dude，you did my a big favor

[@9b8ll]

This is super amazing

[@ABHIii_i]

Woah, cool

[@BestMods168]

Zbrush can do this, but zbrush isnt as good when modeling and choosing points. Like how blender can just click dots and get a shape.

[@user-ot3wl4xc4p]

Thank you so much for the video. Can I ask - what settings did you use for sculpting for such a clear mask line?

[@oberdoofus]

yes - I am having trouble getting the same clear line! but otherwise excellent tut!

[@brucewayne6410]

[@lonlyalone9641]

​@@BlenderSecrets ​ like this tutorial kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnvCnZd4eNJ6aJI This is a tutorial for the older version of Blender, so it has a lot of different features can you pleas make it in blender 3.0

[@deadflea]

Good to know

[@bilbag]

is it possible to extrude in every direction just like the unmasked shape and not just in one direction?

[@GeoNosiS26]

at 0:15 what did you press to add the darker colored outline that looks drawn in?

[@BlenderSecrets]

The "dark colored outline" is the mask, which is drawn either by left-clicking or pressing Enter when you're in Curve Stroke Method. Sorry if I didn't explain that properly.

[@GeoNosiS26]

@@BlenderSecrets it’s alright thanks.

[@matslarsson5988]

I had noooo idea that you could change the stroke type and I've been using Blender for years 😅

[@pile333]

Very nice. The final smooth can fix all the blocky edges?

[@BlenderSecrets]

Yep. It also doesn’t have to be so blocky, depends on the mask and the resolution of the mesh. Can be quite smooth.

[@tobitobi5625]

can i use dot's selection with knife ??

[@andrewsanders7636]

noice

[@EIendir]

It doesnt work now

[@S.H8299]

Choose the mask brush and in the top you can find the word "stroke" press on it > space > curve

[@level10gnollwarlock]

not great for corners like shown in the video, since you cant move along normals.

[@BestMods168]

Alt+s???

[@gerdsfargen6687]

@@BestMods168 right?

[@BlenderSecrets]

Thanks for the feedback. I addressed this here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYXcYZeEg7RnmKc

[@minggnim]

You're leaving something out. Line Stroke doesn't work. The Dot Stroke doesn't do anything. Nothing fills. Thumbs down.

[@BlenderSecrets]

Maybe you've got the wrong object active and can't sculpt where you want. Try hovering over the object and pressing Alt+Q to make it active in sculpting. Obviously line stroke and dot stroke do work, we're not all lying to you ;-)
