1

00:00:06,150 --> 00:00:14,580

Now we're going to be adding what are called seems so seems are really the best way to texture an object



2

00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:19,340

or a mesh because they allow for you to have more control.



3

00:00:19,500 --> 00:00:27,420

Whereas right here it might work on a fence that we could project this from view and have a pretty decent



4

00:00:27,420 --> 00:00:30,410

looking result and a render here.



5

00:00:31,300 --> 00:00:32,680

More complicated meshes.



6

00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:34,410

It might not work as well.



7

00:00:34,420 --> 00:00:41,230

So what we do to properly texture and even for offense you would do this as well if you know how and



8

00:00:41,230 --> 00:00:44,520

it's fairly simple is called adding seams.



9

00:00:44,770 --> 00:00:51,170

So it seems are basically if you can imagine like your jeans or your pants.



10

00:00:51,170 --> 00:00:58,340

They are there they are on a 3D object or model your body and they have seems along them.



11

00:00:58,340 --> 00:01:06,420

Now what we did here is we just projected from view this object so obviously the front view is nice.



12

00:01:06,500 --> 00:01:13,100

The back view is nice but the sides of it are a little bit stretched because those aren't in the view



13

00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:15,290

that we're projecting.



14

00:01:15,290 --> 00:01:22,010

Now if you were to take those pants and cut them along the seam and then lay them out flat in front



15

00:01:22,010 --> 00:01:29,690

of you you could then project an image onto them or print a design onto them and then stitch them back



16

00:01:29,690 --> 00:01:33,410

up along the seams and put them on your 3D body.



17

00:01:33,410 --> 00:01:40,580

It would look a lot nicer because what we did is we took a 3D model model or object your pants.



18

00:01:40,580 --> 00:01:45,560

We cut them out and laid them out completely flat and then projected something onto them.



19

00:01:45,590 --> 00:01:48,520

So that's kind of what we're going to be doing here which is really cool.



20

00:01:48,770 --> 00:01:55,310

So I'm going to hide my fence as well by hitting the HD and make sure to save your project file that



21

00:01:55,310 --> 00:01:56,030

we have here.



22

00:01:56,060 --> 00:02:03,350

Control s save and I'm going to add what's called the monkey head or Suzanne.



23

00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:08,500

So shift a add mash monkey.



24

00:02:08,740 --> 00:02:10,560

And this is called Suzanne.



25

00:02:10,580 --> 00:02:14,270

So this monkey is kind of like the blender mascot.



26

00:02:14,270 --> 00:02:20,900

She's awesome and she's really cool to use for projects like this where you're kind of learning the



27

00:02:20,900 --> 00:02:22,720

flow of Blender.



28

00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,410

So far more complicated mesh like this.



29

00:02:25,430 --> 00:02:26,630

It's going to be a little trickier.



30

00:02:26,630 --> 00:02:27,910

So let's give it a shot.



31

00:02:28,690 --> 00:02:30,280

Well it's out a new material.



32

00:02:31,180 --> 00:02:33,710

And of course let's name our material.



33

00:02:33,820 --> 00:02:38,200

I think we forgot to name the fence but we'll go ahead and name it when we go back.



34

00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:46,840

But let's name this Suzanne and let's go hit Tab A to make sure everything is selected.



35

00:02:46,870 --> 00:02:49,440

And then you unwrap.



36

00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,480

Now I don't want to use this texture.



37

00:02:51,490 --> 00:02:57,790

I want to use another one which will dictate our That which will show you.



38

00:02:57,820 --> 00:03:04,710

I cannot find my words my friends just kicking in guys which will show you what I want to show you what



39

00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,300

we're going to do is go to image and we're going to click.



40

00:03:09,300 --> 00:03:18,540

New image we're then going to go from blank to you the grid and hit OK.



41

00:03:18,740 --> 00:03:21,280

Now making sure that we're in the material tab.



42

00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,950

Go over here to your material.



43

00:03:24,950 --> 00:03:32,430

Click on color or click on the low buy next to color and select image texture and then of course go



44

00:03:32,430 --> 00:03:35,590

here and select that untitled texture image.



45

00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:40,270

And we could actually name this Suzanne.



46

00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,540

Now you could see what it's done.



47

00:03:42,540 --> 00:03:47,580

I mean that's you could see more here because this is a U-V grid texture.



48

00:03:47,580 --> 00:03:51,940

You can see exactly where it's stretched and pretty much everywhere.



49

00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:57,320

I mean this thing is stretched everywhere unless this is the look you're going for.



50

00:03:57,390 --> 00:03:59,990

Now let's show you the other thing we did projecting from view.



51

00:04:00,030 --> 00:04:06,260

Well let's hit one on the numpad tab to go into edit mode and you can see that right here this Reppert



52

00:04:06,270 --> 00:04:08,860

this doesn't look like a face at all.



53

00:04:09,150 --> 00:04:17,380

But let's try project from view that might work you project from view Ah that looks awesome.



54

00:04:17,430 --> 00:04:22,410

So you can see that looks really nice here on the front of the head.



55

00:04:22,620 --> 00:04:25,860

But look at the side of the head.



56

00:04:25,870 --> 00:04:28,110

It looks pretty terrible.



57

00:04:28,110 --> 00:04:32,950

It's very very stretched because it's no longer from that view.



58

00:04:32,970 --> 00:04:35,400

So how do we go about this.



59

00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:42,750

And if we try projected from this view that looks good but then again it's stretched everywhere else.



60

00:04:42,750 --> 00:04:50,760

So in order to get this nicely nicely projected we add what are called seams and seams are going to



61

00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:57,900

cut up the head and laid out flat because if I project it from view from the front you can see that



62

00:04:57,900 --> 00:05:02,940

it's kind of a 3D object projected onto a two dimensional plane.



63

00:05:03,180 --> 00:05:08,250

What the seams are going to do is it's going to convert this 3D object into a two dimensional object



64

00:05:08,550 --> 00:05:11,130

and then projected onto a two dimensional image.



65

00:05:11,230 --> 00:05:12,680

Smart.



66

00:05:12,690 --> 00:05:19,810

All right so let me unwrap one so that while that looks even worse and you can see that nothing's happening.



67

00:05:20,130 --> 00:05:26,610

So let's head tab to go into edit mode control t our control tab Scuse me to go into Virtex select mode



68

00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:36,350

let's alt right click this whole edge loop here and then hitting C to get the crosshairs middle mouse



69

00:05:36,350 --> 00:05:38,540

button or to get the brush.



70

00:05:38,540 --> 00:05:45,590

Should I say middle mouse button to de-select all those vertices now.



71

00:05:45,610 --> 00:05:47,190

Hit control e.



72

00:05:49,110 --> 00:05:50,700

Mark seam.



73

00:05:50,820 --> 00:05:53,940

And now our seam is marked on our monkey.



74

00:05:54,150 --> 00:06:04,620

And if we Slide 8 to select everything you and unwrap you could see that the head over here has actually



75

00:06:04,620 --> 00:06:06,410

been flattened out.



76

00:06:06,420 --> 00:06:11,980

It looks like it's been cut down the middle and flattened out into a flat object.



77

00:06:12,180 --> 00:06:13,230

Pretty cool.



78

00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,490

So let's go a little bit further with this because it's looking good right now.



79

00:06:17,490 --> 00:06:23,660

All of it is looking much much better but we can see that the ears are severely stretched.



80

00:06:24,620 --> 00:06:30,710

So let's go ahead and add some seams around there and again adding seams is a skill and in of itself



81

00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:33,560

and you get used to this as you go along.



82

00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:38,670

You want to keep in mind like think about your clothes or your pants.



83

00:06:38,840 --> 00:06:45,330

Where would you cut that object to make it lay out flat nicely lots like these.



84

00:06:45,330 --> 00:06:46,670

By shift right clicking



85

00:06:50,550 --> 00:06:55,500

I'm going to select around the whole year.



86

00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,140

And so now we have this loop around the ear.



87

00:06:58,430 --> 00:06:59,800

Let's go ahead.



88

00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:09,620

Go back to the material tab control the marks seem to aces select and disliked everything or de-select



89

00:07:09,620 --> 00:07:15,330

and select everything you unwrap and that already looks a little bit better.



90

00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,850

Except right here we're getting some strange stretching as well.



91

00:07:19,850 --> 00:07:26,480

So what we're going to do is we're going to come up here behind the back select these



92

00:07:29,410 --> 00:07:32,410

and hit control the marks seam.



93

00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,790

And also let's go to edge slide mode control tab edge



94

00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:46,360

actually let's see what that looks like for now eight de-select and select everything you unwrap and



95

00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,900

you can see that that already looks a ton better.



96

00:07:49,900 --> 00:07:51,280

Awesome.



97

00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,470

Now let's we could even try.



98

00:07:53,770 --> 00:07:56,300

Let's try right here.



99

00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,800

It's being stretched a little bit actually.



100

00:07:59,110 --> 00:08:01,090

If we go to the back of the ear as well.



101

00:08:01,180 --> 00:08:04,240

You can see that right here it's being stretched quite a bit as well.



102

00:08:04,540 --> 00:08:13,510

So back in the edit mode let's select this edge in addition and hit control the mark seam de-select



103

00:08:13,510 --> 00:08:19,880

and slide everything with the A.E. you unwrap and now you can see it looks a lot better.



104

00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:23,500

So that's why it sometimes takes you know takes you have to tweak it.



105

00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:28,830

Play around with it until you get some good results with it.



106

00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,360

So now we have that year.



107

00:08:30,370 --> 00:08:32,590

That's awesome.



108

00:08:32,590 --> 00:08:36,010

Now over here it's looking a little bit stretched in this area.



109

00:08:36,340 --> 00:08:42,000

So what I'm going to do is I'm actually going to slice this whole loop right here by.



110

00:08:42,010 --> 00:08:46,250

All right clicking and hitting control.



111

00:08:46,750 --> 00:08:49,540

MARK Actually I want to show you what it looks like first.



112

00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:54,540

Right here we can see that the face is right here it's attached to the whole body.



113

00:08:54,580 --> 00:08:56,410

So it's kind of stretching.



114

00:08:56,830 --> 00:08:59,260

Let's see where it's stretching If we zoom in here.



115

00:08:59,370 --> 00:09:03,210

AIDS disliked everything seemed to get our brush tool.



116

00:09:03,220 --> 00:09:05,640

We could select this area.



117

00:09:05,980 --> 00:09:12,600

You can see that if I move this this is where it's stretching so I believe it's right around here that's



118

00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,230

stretching Actually it's right around here.



119

00:09:17,470 --> 00:09:22,100

The right around here is where it's stretching and you can see that right here it's a little bit stretched



120

00:09:22,100 --> 00:09:27,110

so what I'm going to do to alleviate that stretching right there.



121

00:09:27,110 --> 00:09:33,830

Of course you could always move this around and that might added it a.



122

00:09:33,830 --> 00:09:38,200

But you know it might alleviate some of the stretching if you move this around.



123

00:09:38,540 --> 00:09:44,440

But again that's not the best way to do it because it becomes very tricky to edit it that way.



124

00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:50,400

So let's go ahead and add another seam by all right clicking around this whole loop right here.



125

00:09:50,660 --> 00:09:53,030

Control the mark seam.



126

00:09:53,360 --> 00:10:03,710

Once again select everything you unwrap and now you can see that the face itself is actually disconnected



127

00:10:04,100 --> 00:10:06,440

from the rest of the head here.



128

00:10:07,950 --> 00:10:15,420

So if you have a whole loop cut that goes around from start to finish all the way around it will actually



129

00:10:15,420 --> 00:10:20,760

disconnect that portion of the model from the rest of it as you can see.



130

00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,990

Same thing happened with our ear which is right here.



131

00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:31,040

Because we have a loop cut around the whole base of the ear which is connecting back into itself so



132

00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,880

it's basically cutting it off completely.



133

00:10:34,070 --> 00:10:40,460

And that helps with the stretching so you can see now the stretching up here is a lot less and it looks



134

00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,220

a lot better.



135

00:10:42,230 --> 00:10:47,630

So that is how you add seems now to take away a seam.



136

00:10:47,630 --> 00:10:48,970

Let's say you want to remove a seam.



137

00:10:49,010 --> 00:10:52,050

All you have to do is select that seam.



138

00:10:52,220 --> 00:10:56,700

He controlled the clear seam and it will remove it like.



139

00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:02,050

So let's go ahead and do the other here so that we have a complete model here.



140

00:11:02,420 --> 00:11:08,760

Let's select the back of the years.



141

00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:17,850

So all that or shift right clicking these edges wrong one right there.



142

00:11:22,900 --> 00:11:24,980

Like did the want wrong on there too.



143

00:11:25,490 --> 00:11:32,090

And then control you could see that right now if I were to go back to the U-V editor or into here this



144

00:11:32,090 --> 00:11:37,750

would be attached to the head as soon as we had control the marks seem and have this.



145

00:11:38,330 --> 00:11:43,550

That's not what I want to do I guess I selected the wrong one up here as well.



146

00:11:43,550 --> 00:11:46,200

So it's this one right here.



147

00:11:46,430 --> 00:11:52,970

Soon as we had control he marks seem you could see that if I hit a to select everything right now the



148

00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:53,690

other ear



149

00:11:56,550 --> 00:11:58,080

the other ear is right here.



150

00:11:58,110 --> 00:12:00,690

As you can see this is the ear.



151

00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,390

It's attached to the body.



152

00:12:02,790 --> 00:12:08,640

But now if I hit you to unwrap our muli marked seem the model.



153

00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:14,720

You can see that now the ear is over here and it's been completely detached from the body.



154

00:12:15,690 --> 00:12:21,850

So let's go ahead and do the same thing as the other one out in loop cuts or seams right here.



155

00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:30,110

Mark seam along the back of the ear so starting from the base of the ear a year and just following the



156

00:12:30,110 --> 00:12:39,000

line from the back of the ear behind it right here all the way to the top to select everything you unwrap.



157

00:12:39,140 --> 00:12:41,170

And there we have it.



158

00:12:41,270 --> 00:12:46,880

We've just unwrapped Our Suzanne model and she is looking fine.



159

00:12:47,030 --> 00:12:48,640

So there you have it.



160

00:12:48,650 --> 00:12:53,120

That is how you word properly texture an object.



161

00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:59,600

Now for some objects like I said if it's very simple like a fence or a flat object like a plane or a



162

00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,380

floor you can definitely project it from view like a wooden floor.



163

00:13:03,380 --> 00:13:06,160

You wouldn't need to do this for more complex objects.



164

00:13:06,170 --> 00:13:14,210

You need to add seams to them because that basically allows it to take a 3D object cut it where the



165

00:13:14,210 --> 00:13:15,170

seams are.



166

00:13:15,260 --> 00:13:20,930

Lay it flat and then project onto here like so.



167

00:13:21,380 --> 00:13:27,770

So this is a flattened version of our 3-D object from the seams that we created.



168

00:13:28,070 --> 00:13:34,430

So again that's how you do it because to add a two dimensional image to a 3-D object is a little tricky.



169

00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:39,960

And the way to do that is to convert your 3D object into a 2D object via seems.



170

00:13:39,980 --> 00:13:40,350

All right.



171

00:13:40,370 --> 00:13:43,010

I think I draw that line long enough.



172

00:13:43,010 --> 00:13:51,660

So with that let's save our project control s save the house blend and let's get on to the next Tauriel



173

00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:52,640

or See.



174

00:13:54,180 --> 00:13:58,660

It seems that we have a quote for this video.



175

00:13:58,920 --> 00:13:59,430

All right.



176

00:13:59,430 --> 00:14:05,050

So there something that you might not see that's deep within both you and me.



177

00:14:05,220 --> 00:14:11,790

You can hear it shout this potential just keeps calling out and it will never quit even when you feel



178

00:14:11,790 --> 00:14:13,190

like this is it.



179

00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,840

So keep your head high you keep searching for your why.



180

00:14:16,860 --> 00:14:19,270

It's your passion calling from deep inside.



181

00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,000

And they will never hide.



182

00:14:21,090 --> 00:14:22,560

Just surrender to your dream.



183

00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,940

It's not as scary as it might seem.



184

00:14:25,020 --> 00:14:32,250

And once you do believe me when I say to you you might tear up and cry for you have finally found your



185

00:14:32,250 --> 00:14:33,260

Y.



186

00:14:33,450 --> 00:14:35,040

Hope you guys enjoy that little poem.



187

00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,660

Find your why until it makes you cry.



188

00:14:38,700 --> 00:14:43,160

Sounds like a bad thing but it's a good thing because your wife needs to be powerful.



189

00:14:43,380 --> 00:14:44,760

All right ladies and gentlemen.



190

00:14:44,820 --> 00:14:46,300

See you in the next video.



191

00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,340

Find your why your why might be 3D arts.



192

00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:50,210

All of us.



193

00:14:50,250 --> 00:14:51,860

See you in the next one.
