Your tutorials are treasure troves of knowledge, it's amazing how deep you go into alternative methods and theories. Please never stop making these

[@wes.mcdermott]

Thank you so much! I will definitely keep going!

[@norbert2906]

Hi Wes! Thank you so much for these tutorials you've been making! We truly appreciate the hard work that you put into making these videos for us! Keep 'em coming! Thanks to you we're able to make some amazing stuff! Again, thanks!

[@wes.mcdermott]

Thank you much! So glad you liked the videos

[@koroshghanbarzadeh1360]

Thank you Wes! your videos are massively helpful.

[@wes.mcdermott]

Thank you much!

[@cyberbemon]

The timing of this could not have been perfect. was trying to do the exact thing and was banging my head against the wall. Thank you Wes!

[@wes.mcdermott]

Awesome! So glad to hear it will be helpful

[@jacobduchon2833]

Absolutely splendid tutorial! Jolly good 😊

[@wes.mcdermott]

Glad you liked it!

[@NightVisionOfficial]

Your tutorials are the best. Concise, straight to the point, learning material. We can see the process as someone should usually have, instead of: Ok, now we put Noise at 1.93 because yes, now you just place this here and that there. They are just great and you explain everything you do and most important, why you do that. Thanks a bunch 👍

[@wes.mcdermott]

Thank you very much!

[@mists_of_time]

Amazing tutorial. Thank you!

[@wes.mcdermott]

You're very welcome!

[@cepryn8222]

Awesome! TY

[@N-Key_CG]

Thanks a lot! This is what i'm looking for!

[@wes.mcdermott]

You are welcome!

[@Mutexop]

This video was godsend! Thank you so much! I'm currently doing a project for my classes and really needed a good droplet overlay and this was the perfect thing I needed. You explain everything in such a great way, and honestly when importing my file now into substance 3d stager and rendering it, it really adds that cherry on top! Thanks again!

[@wes.mcdermott]

Glad it helped! Thanks so much!

If you can make full blender tutorials from scratch. Your 1st video helped me alot as a starter. Your explanation is very precise and you move the cursors, press buttons, hovering, & much more by showing every move. Other blender tutorial do quick, that is not a teaching skill for starters. Thanks

[@wes.mcdermott]

Thank you for the suggestions! So glad you like the videos. What type of blender tutorial would you want to see? Creating a model, UV and texturing from start to finish?

[@mh9251]

​@wes.mcdermott creating any object example a corn ice cream & explaining the interface from basics. My point is that other tutor don't explain small details, which are big for starters!

[@ShinGidora]

I’m here early! I’ve always seen renderer specific approaches so this game asset oriented one is so awesome ! :)

[@wes.mcdermott]

Glad you like it!

[@MCCDEMON]

Thats just so amazing with what ease you pull out all the correct filters and maps. Sure you are doing this for years, but never the less. Great job and I cant wait until we see more from you and painter. Are you in any discord channel?

[@wes.mcdermott]

Thank you much! Greatly appreciate it. We have a Substance Discord here: discord.gg/SRcNYQAe Check it out! We have lots of updates on our discord and great place to hang out.

Much appreciated!

[@nayandurge8877]

Everytime you make awesome work please make more videos about substance painter

[@wes.mcdermott]

Thank you much! Will do!

[@edenassos]

Condensation looks passable but not sure about water droplets, understandable because of the limits of the workflow though. Geometry water drops look a gazillion times better.

[@wes.mcdermott]

Yeah, geometry water drops would be much better

[@Rgrtls]

How would one go about Photoshoping cats onto all of the players in the game, Counter-Stike:Global Offense?

[@wes.mcdermott]

This is a great question!

That Flip thing is new to painter 9 right?

[@wes.mcdermott]

I think so :) Funny thing is I just recently saw it myself and was thinking I don't recall seeing flip options.

[@user-hot5]

[@supirritogai1820]

I found that my fliter has no blendeing mode options do you know why?

[@wes.mcdermott]

Which filter are you using? Are you on the latest version of Painter?

[@supirritogai1820]

@@wes.mcdermott I mean add filter you have blending options i dont have it,i use painter on steam it should be the newest version

[@user-se6et3jn2t]

when overdrive function in blur slopr was added my substance painter doesn't let me do that((((

[@wes.mcdermott]

Which version of Painter do you have? In some older versions the blur intensity was capped at 1.0.

[@Persepolis8564]

Do you have a full titorial of texturing wn asset from dtart to finish? Paid or free,doesn't mattet

[@wes.mcdermott]

I don't on the channel, but this is a good idea. I will look to add that as like a mini-course :) All my training is always free : )

[@Persepolis8564]

@@wes.mcdermott Thank you. Getting to know what you do from ststt to finish is always,in my opinion, better. Getting to see how you set up Substance Painter,all the way to the final render and possibly post-processing will be truly appreciated

[@Ricardo-de9ju]

Interesting technique, but I still think it is too repetitive. Would be nice to be able to save the alpha for those droplets.

[@wes.mcdermott]

You can save the alpha. You can right-click the mask for the drops and export to an image.
