Realistic Snake Scales Modeling(use curve and array addon) in Blender 2.93

[@Tamashikusho]

Great tutorial! Just a little tip for people who don't like the gaps you can sometimes see between scales at certain angles - give the bezier curve a geometry node modifier, put in a curve to mesh and plug a curve circle into the profile curve socket with a radius of 0.63. Put a set material between the curve to mesh and the group output, then plug a material node into that with the scales material selected. This will turn the curve into a mesh just below the scales.

Excellent. I have watched a few video's on creating scales and this is one of the best, if not the best so far. Thank you

[@brunocastro4558]

First comment !! Amazing tutorial, and what a sound !! Great job.

[@blenderdefaultcube]

Thanks 👍

Hello, ive seen the low poly snake video and in that video u used a different method of creating the body. is there a way to kind of flatten the body the top part of the array to get that cobra "wings". I can't seem to scale an individual point of my curve on the Z axis to flatten it..

[@thethirdd352]

2:35 How did you remove the array modifier without loosing the extra scales? I assume it is too prevent the belly scale from being duplicated when you combine with Ctrl + J. I can't figure out how to do that.

[@blenderdefaultcube]

thanks for watching.... After using an array modifier, you apply the array modifier. Its shortcut is Ctrl+A.

@@blenderdefaultcube Thank you, That helped

[@FurlowT]

This is pretty darn awesome. I want use this to make the scales on a snaketail I'm working on. Trying keep poly level down though, can this be baked into some form of a normal map onto a cylinder? Or even put to specific parts of bodies and baked into normal maps?

Excellent Tutorial. Thanks

how to rotate at 6:08, i tried everytime and it make shape changing too

[@hocchuithich3822]

I get it. Have to choose circle and the skin at the same time

[@DellizarSlit]

your comment saved me so much stress

[@FoxyGekkerson]

I know this is probably the wrong video to comment on, but is there a way to achieve a similar pattern with prodecural textures? I'm specifically looking for a way to get a stripe of wide scales inside a regular scale pattern like what's in this video to texture a gryphon's forearm. I've been playing around with Simon Thommes' Sc'les material, but I don't know enough about shader nodes to get the results I'm after.

Can you share with me screenshot of your issue??? My mail : [e-mail]

[@Candispirit]

So I have a creature already made and want to add this snake design to it. Could I do it this way or would I just need to sculpt it on the model

[@blenderdefaultcube]

I think would be better if you sculpt.

[@alekrex5905]

hey how's it going? Is there any way I can make the curve straight?

[@vishnu_j]

Use select path instead of. Bezeur cuve

Yes ..For that you have to Modeling a solid body first and then you can wrap to it this way.

[@bishokukai2445]

But if i select all and press ctrl+j then down side scales also repeating many times ... how to solve this idk
