Normally tutorials put me to sleep, this one was concise, easy to understand and very informative! I like that you broke it down both in the context menu and the side menus as well. Top notch tut! Thank you!

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching, LR 😄

Monica I missed you and your videos After the Substance Painter Normal Mapping This will be another Ultimate Golden addon for my collection Thank youuuuuuuuuu So much

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Thanks so much! I'm so happy to hear it helps artists like you 😄

[@anthonymitchell4216]

I would love to see more UV mapping videos. I'm a decent 3D artist but I lack skill in the UV mapping area!

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

UV mapping is a definite challenge, Anthony. More uv mapping tutorials coming soon! 😄

[@MichaelHurdleStudio]

Well done. No matter how long I've been using Maya, I still don't know about UV mapping. Thank you.

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

UV Mapping is a challenge! Glad you found this video helpful :D

[@akshaypoojari8266]

Excellent as alwsy ♥️

[@foustcor]

Thank you! Excellent and fun as always! I had no idea the color option existed (what was I doing all this time??) If you want, you can define "Tile Padding" and "Shell Padding" in the "Layout UVs" options window. This way they won't invade other UV spaces.

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Thanks for the tip! I'll have to check that out :)

Hi. At 2:54 of tutorial, how did you close the spherical after you creating it?? I try shift and middle click on the red one but i cant close the spherical uv. Plz help tnx a lot.

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

I didn't do anything fancy. I just clicked and dragged it (no shift or anything). I hope that helps!

[@afshinrastgar5287]

@@AcademicPhoenixPlus i found it finally, first i should go to "preferences" and in the "display" section, i go to "viewport" section and change it to legacy, then everything works fine and normal for me. And again thank you so much, i learn a lot from your tutorials. As always you are the best.

[@archivradio]

very nice! i‘m so bad at UV mapping ;-) cheers from /uhr24

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

You can do it! UV mapping just takes practice 😄

[@archivradio]

@@AcademicPhoenixPlus i agree. but each of us has their strengths and passions. ;-)

[@lyricsvideo2824]

Full character uv please

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Thank you for the suggestion :)

[@lenneth1188]

Do u have to stitch them together?

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

I would recommended it. The less seams you have, the easier it will be to texture. I hope that helps

[@rohitbarkam4826]

First view ♥️

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Nice job, Rohit! 🏆

[@startandplay688]
