yeah, we would love to see grass texture.

[@johndoe46446]

I was struggling to paint scales, yesterday and it took me like 2 hours. After watching this it didn't take 5minutes and the results are way better. Thank you so much, Abbitt-sensei.

[@grabbitt]

good to hear :)

[@ecthelion1517]

For those of you doing this tutorial and stopping in the middle and saving to take a break: Make sure to separately save the Image you painted on the UV unwrapped shape! It will not be saved if you save just the blender file. He says that at the end but I lost my progress because I took a break :( Hope I could help. PS: Thanks for your awesome tutorials Mr. Abbitt, really appreciate your work.

[@DrawingWithAna]

I would love to see a tutorial on the grass as well! Your videos are extremely helpful, thank you!

[@grabbitt]

Highly likely

[@corimyers4985]

Grant is like the Bob Ross of Blender Tutorials. Just love listening to him talk. I feel all warm and fuzzy like everything is fine…even when I’m panicked ♥️

[@WJS774]

Personally I would argue that when choosing a base colour for a new map, it might be good to go for one with _maximum_ contrast like magenta or lime green, to make it easy to be sure you've painted everywhere. (That is assuming you _want_ to paint everywhere of course, if you want a flat colour with some painted imperfections, this doesn't apply)

[@jeremyscott2486]

Realize I'm late to the "commenting party". Novice here. Just wanted to take the time to thank you for the way you explain your actions. Ive watched a few KZbinr's tutorials, and your style is easy to follow with better retention. Good stuff, man.

[@till.sen_wlc]

Your voice is so soothing and the way you talk is just a pleasure to listen to you. Thumbs up!

[@grabbitt]

Thanks :)

[@olyna]

What a gentleman! Such nice flow and overwhelming nice tutorial warmly narrated. This a Typical example when the video is so good and you subscribe without even having seen the content of the channel because you just know it is going to be topnotch!

[@meehdrescher]

I textured a car with stencils for the first time yesterday... ty for the tutorial, really helped me, I actually got a somewhat acceptable result :)

[@ericklennon022]

I'm starting on Blender now and I just want to say your videos are gold, friend! Thank you very much! 🇧🇷

[@pleochroic]

Alright, this is my speed: no art skills needed. I can use a mouse! ;) This was as simple and straight-forward as possible. I tried using Blender years ago and gave up to go with SketchUp instead. I still think Blender is at times more confusing than it has to be, but the user interface has improved by leaps and bounds, it is now actually fun to use instead of endlessly frustrating. I learned a whole bunch of little things on the side, but you didn't clutter the main task with unnecessary rambling. Really, really good tutorial. I am inordinately proud of my rock-n-post. Thank you! As to Blender still being more confusing than it has to be -- I lost all my texturing work despite having saved the scene frequently because I didn't finish the tutorial in one sitting and shut down my machine before getting to the point where you tell us to save textures. WHY? If it's in the bloody scene, it ought to be saved by default. If I want to get rid of unwanted textures, I know how to do it. *grump*. Not your fault, but frustrating. And now onward to more complex UV unwrapping. With any luck you'll have a tutorial for that as well -- ah, I see the YT algorithm for recommendations in the side bar is on the job. Though maybe the grass first.

[@AndromedaBeta]

I've might to say: Beautiful grass, sir. As well the two wood pillars.

[@grabbitt]

Thanks :)

Very nice. I finally get over the texture stencil thing trick with this tuto after some others. Your smooth voice tone helps a lot among the Blender's confuse painting texture workflow. Thanks !

[@nickcamilo9207]

I have a very obscure floating island land mass shape that has been driving me crazy, could not for the life of me figure out how to map grass along it without seams, as it's pretty much impossible to unwrap this shape correctly. Can't wait to try this out tonight. Thank you!

[@floppygoble]

"I always like to pull out" - Grant Abbitt, 2019.

[@DocWolph]

I think you can split Blenders working interface between two or more screens. Aside from "Rendering in a new window", I have not been able to find it or figure it out. I may have done it by accident but because it was not consistent or reliable, I never committed the action to memory. But that would be a HUGE plus, especially when you go and buy a pen display and now have TWO screens and all that real estate to work with.

[@grabbitt]

Yes its under window at the top

[@dartfast]

I had seen this stencil trick done before in a sculpting timelapse! Didn't know what it was called so had no idea what I was really looking. It works there, too, right, can you do a video on that subject or is there no real difference in the setup? I might just go try it myself. :) Great tutorials as always.

[@grabbitt]

Thanks :)
