1 00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:10,020 All right let's go ahead and check out weight painting. 2 00:00:10,040 --> 00:00:16,520 So we're going to be painting our character in a way weight painting basically allows for us to affect 3 00:00:16,700 --> 00:00:20,890 or to select which part of our character is affected by which bones. 4 00:00:21,020 --> 00:00:21,980 So it's really cool. 5 00:00:21,980 --> 00:00:29,570 It's a way to fine tune our deformation before we do that however slight the bones hit a dislike over 6 00:00:29,570 --> 00:00:35,900 them and hit all tar and all g to clear the rotation and location and we can see that right here. 7 00:00:35,930 --> 00:00:38,600 These ones do not line up at all. 8 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:46,340 So what I can do is actually hit tab to go into Edit Mode C to bring up the brush tool left click and 9 00:00:46,340 --> 00:00:51,380 drag over all of these and hit X and delete the bones. 10 00:00:51,380 --> 00:01:01,290 Now I'm going to go ahead and select this bone shift as cursor to selected and then make sure that my 11 00:01:01,290 --> 00:01:04,900 pivot point is on 3D cursor. 12 00:01:05,390 --> 00:01:12,380 Now selecting these bones ready here I'm going to hit shift d to copy it right click to leave it there 13 00:01:12,500 --> 00:01:21,740 and then as x negative one and then control and and recalculate it on the global z axis. 14 00:01:21,750 --> 00:01:28,040 Now what I'm going to do is select the character go to the Data tab right here. 15 00:01:28,170 --> 00:01:30,470 And these are all the vertex state does. 16 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:40,140 And this is basically the each point or each influence that the bone has on certain amount of vertices 17 00:01:40,140 --> 00:01:42,120 for our character. 18 00:01:42,180 --> 00:01:46,040 So we're going to take a look at this a lot more during the weight painting part of it. 19 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:52,500 But for now I'm just going to click this little arrow and like delete all groups and selecting my character 20 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:59,820 shift for clicking the bone control p with automatic weights once again and we can see that the vertex 21 00:01:59,820 --> 00:02:02,040 groups have been re added. 22 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:06,380 Now if I select a bone you can see that once again it animates it. 23 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,390 And that's a pretty interesting result right there. 24 00:02:09,390 --> 00:02:12,950 So what we need to do is go over here. 25 00:02:13,290 --> 00:02:19,110 Select these bones and go to armature flip names. 26 00:02:20,790 --> 00:02:29,870 And now flip the names to dot R and of course everything's working fine and dandy. 27 00:02:30,270 --> 00:02:30,910 All right cool. 28 00:02:30,930 --> 00:02:36,900 Now let's take a look at automatic weights and how we use them and how we're going to use them to tweak 29 00:02:36,900 --> 00:02:38,340 this a little bit. 30 00:02:38,340 --> 00:02:43,110 So for example we can see that when we move the arm part of the face moves right here. 31 00:02:43,110 --> 00:02:45,940 This is moving kind of the face as well. 32 00:02:46,140 --> 00:02:49,360 And this is kind of moving. 33 00:02:49,530 --> 00:02:53,220 The teeth are not moving quite as well with it. 34 00:02:53,220 --> 00:02:55,540 So make sure I'm impose load. 35 00:02:55,620 --> 00:03:03,480 I'm going to select the character and hit Control P or control tab excuse me mixing up my shortcut keys 36 00:03:03,750 --> 00:03:12,510 control tab and we just went we just went from object mode to weight paint mode which is right here. 37 00:03:12,810 --> 00:03:21,940 Now you can see that whenever we select a bone there is painting on our character as the name implies. 38 00:03:22,170 --> 00:03:23,340 So pretty cool. 39 00:03:23,340 --> 00:03:27,610 And this is basically the influence that the bone has on it. 40 00:03:27,630 --> 00:03:33,150 So the lighter the color the less influence for example a light blue means it's influencing a little 41 00:03:33,150 --> 00:03:40,480 bit yellow or green as more yellows a little bit more and then red is influencing it 100 percent. 42 00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:41,760 Such as right here. 43 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,330 Now there's several different ways that we could change the weight mode if we hit the tiki to bring 44 00:03:47,330 --> 00:03:48,530 up the tools shelf. 45 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:55,460 Just like with the sculpting we have some drawing tools here and we could draw so we can like draw and 46 00:03:55,460 --> 00:04:02,540 just painted on and add some more weights on there and you could see that now if I rotate this it will 47 00:04:02,870 --> 00:04:06,090 affect whatever I just painted on here. 48 00:04:08,990 --> 00:04:10,120 Control-C to undo that. 49 00:04:10,130 --> 00:04:17,540 And of course we have the subtract and all the other different options such as that are very similar 50 00:04:17,540 --> 00:04:18,720 to the sculpting. 51 00:04:18,890 --> 00:04:23,000 You have the weight which is the basically the weight of the paint. 52 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:28,250 You have the radius and the strength which is how light or how strong it will be. 53 00:04:28,250 --> 00:04:36,230 So strength that one you will get read pretty much and you put the strength way down you'll get more 54 00:04:36,230 --> 00:04:40,820 of a blue greenish color. 55 00:04:40,820 --> 00:04:42,230 Now we could do it this way. 56 00:04:42,290 --> 00:04:50,620 But and this way is great if you want to have it more smooth or more transitional. 57 00:04:50,620 --> 00:04:56,800 Except there's a more direct way to do it which is what we're going to do over here hitting t to close 58 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:57,620 that off. 59 00:04:57,820 --> 00:05:06,100 I'm now going to with this middle bone selected hit tab to go into edit mode are actually what I want 60 00:05:06,100 --> 00:05:12,330 to do first is we can see that when we select the I.K. hand when we move this moving part of the mouth 61 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:13,540 and the eye. 62 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:21,160 And the reason for that is because if we select this bone we can see that there's a tiny hint of blue. 63 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,850 Now you can barely see it. 64 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:27,500 But if I move this bone you could see that it's moving the eye. 65 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:34,330 And part of the face and this one obviously has some as well but this one is what we want to remove 66 00:05:34,390 --> 00:05:37,180 from here so that it doesn't move the face. 67 00:05:37,180 --> 00:05:43,260 So to do that well we're going to do is using the vertex groups we're actually going to have this bone 68 00:05:43,260 --> 00:05:48,330 selected which it's going to select it right here whenever you select a bone here we'll select it in 69 00:05:48,330 --> 00:05:54,980 the vertex tab selectiveness bone and then get a hit tab to go into Edit Mode of the character. 70 00:05:55,470 --> 00:06:06,890 I'm going to select this edge loop right here and hit control plus to increase the selection to right 71 00:06:06,890 --> 00:06:08,080 about there. 72 00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:17,230 And then what I'm going to do is hit Control I to inverse invert the selection. 73 00:06:17,710 --> 00:06:21,710 And now because on this bone when we move it we can see that it's moving. 74 00:06:21,790 --> 00:06:24,320 It's even moving the nose a little bit right here. 75 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,840 So we know that there some weight paint a little bit all over here. 76 00:06:28,330 --> 00:06:34,960 Now with everything else selected except for what needs to be moved which is the arm only got the bicep 77 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,390 Dayal and select remove. 78 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:44,360 Now it basically removed all the weight painting on the selected vertices. 79 00:06:44,370 --> 00:06:50,730 So if I move this you could see that's no longer moving the nose or the eyes or the face. 80 00:06:50,730 --> 00:06:51,400 Awesome. 81 00:06:51,570 --> 00:06:55,450 And of course a mirror in it to the other side as well. 82 00:06:55,500 --> 00:06:56,250 Pretty cool. 83 00:06:56,250 --> 00:07:01,050 And we don't have to do it on both arms so it's both mirrored on there. 84 00:07:01,050 --> 00:07:02,510 Now let's check this one. 85 00:07:05,350 --> 00:07:06,670 This one is pretty good. 86 00:07:06,670 --> 00:07:11,250 I'm just seeing if it moves the face at all so we're good on that. 87 00:07:11,270 --> 00:07:20,050 Now let's go to the middle bone right here which is a mushroom got our underscore mid hitting tab to 88 00:07:20,050 --> 00:07:21,320 go into edit mode. 89 00:07:22,930 --> 00:07:31,430 And then going to hit the box select all of this up to here. 90 00:07:35,150 --> 00:07:47,710 Diesel like this by middle mouse clicking and de-select these right here like that and selecting this 91 00:07:47,710 --> 00:07:49,940 one as well. 92 00:07:50,050 --> 00:07:53,740 I'm going to dislike these ones by alt shift right clicking 93 00:07:59,550 --> 00:08:01,520 and leave those like that. 94 00:08:01,650 --> 00:08:06,690 And now what I'm going to do is with this bones like that go over here with the weight all the way to 95 00:08:06,690 --> 00:08:13,530 one I'm going to assign a weight of one to these vertices on this bone. 96 00:08:13,530 --> 00:08:19,620 So now if I hit tab to go back into PPO's mode you could see that the weight has been added onto this 97 00:08:19,620 --> 00:08:27,450 bone as a way of one which is referenced with the red on here. 98 00:08:27,550 --> 00:08:34,460 Now a couple of things I want to do to increase this or to change it is you can see that right here 99 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:41,480 when I rotate it it's kind of pinching it a little bit too much there. 100 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,670 So what we're going to do with that is hitting tabs go into edit mode. 101 00:08:45,950 --> 00:08:48,830 Let's actually select this one right here. 102 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:56,740 And before we do that going back to the selection let's go down to this bone and you can see that part 103 00:08:56,740 --> 00:09:00,270 of the mouth and everything selected on this bone and we don't want that. 104 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:06,190 So with this bone selected hitting tab to go into edit mode with all the selection still we're going 105 00:09:06,190 --> 00:09:11,940 to remove it so that all these are removed from this bone right here. 106 00:09:12,430 --> 00:09:14,370 Awesome now. 107 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,170 All right click this loop right here. 108 00:09:17,390 --> 00:09:25,290 And with this bone selected I'm going to go to the weights and put it at point five and assigned that 109 00:09:25,350 --> 00:09:26,360 to here. 110 00:09:26,910 --> 00:09:33,120 And then I'm going to go to this bone right here hit tab and assign a way of point five to there as 111 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,350 well. 112 00:09:34,350 --> 00:09:43,860 Now if I rotate this you could see that we got what we got a nice rotation right here. 113 00:09:43,860 --> 00:09:48,560 All right so that is those two bones taken care of. 114 00:09:48,610 --> 00:09:52,560 Now let's take a look at up here. 115 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:59,580 First thing we want to do is you can see that this bone has some influence up here on the mushroom top 116 00:09:59,940 --> 00:10:01,280 which we don't want. 117 00:10:01,290 --> 00:10:11,220 So what I'm going to do is with this bone selected go to this and select select and actually select 118 00:10:11,220 --> 00:10:13,680 everything because there is some white painting on there. 119 00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:15,450 So we have to do it a different way. 120 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:27,760 I'm just going to go into wireframe beat box select all of that and then dislike that and de-select 121 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,380 that as well. 122 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:40,230 Now hitting tab to go into topos mode making sure there's a bonus like that. 123 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:50,700 Going to hit tab and remove the weight from there then selecting this one right here I'm going to go 124 00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:57,260 ahead and hit tab to go into edit mode control I to invert the selection. 125 00:10:58,020 --> 00:11:01,150 And now I want to remove all the selection from this top one. 126 00:11:01,290 --> 00:11:09,500 So I'm going to hit remove them and now only this is assigned to here. 127 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,410 And then one last thing we need to do actually with the top. 128 00:11:12,730 --> 00:11:21,000 If I hit tab to go into edit mode and then hit Control high we are neighbors card going off control. 129 00:11:21,010 --> 00:11:22,910 I invert the selection. 130 00:11:23,140 --> 00:11:28,270 I'm going to assign a weight of one to this top bone right here. 131 00:11:28,270 --> 00:11:33,910 So with this Tabone selected with all these vertices selected I'm going to hit a sign. 132 00:11:34,330 --> 00:11:37,360 And now the wait is at 1. 133 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:45,100 So now if we rotate this you can see the result that we have which is pretty cool. 134 00:11:45,100 --> 00:11:47,080 Now let's go ahead and try one thing. 135 00:11:47,140 --> 00:11:53,650 Let's select this vertex right here like unselected. 136 00:11:53,900 --> 00:11:56,420 Actually it looks like that one. 137 00:11:56,420 --> 00:12:00,010 Let's try with this one and I bring it down to point five. 138 00:12:00,270 --> 00:12:06,730 And with this one selected I'm going to sign it 2.5 and then it's like this phone and with this one 139 00:12:06,730 --> 00:12:13,560 it's like it I'm going to sign it 2.5 as well and let's see what that gives us. 140 00:12:21,310 --> 00:12:23,090 We're actually going to sign this one. 141 00:12:23,350 --> 00:12:25,870 Let's go point to five. 142 00:12:27,310 --> 00:12:27,960 Sign 143 00:12:30,570 --> 00:12:31,590 and sign 144 00:12:34,630 --> 00:12:40,930 three point to five seems to be a little bit better of a result right there. 145 00:12:46,620 --> 00:12:47,520 And there we have it. 146 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,850 So that is weight painting. 147 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:55,650 And of course you can use it the other way with the brush tool as well but you can see that all our 148 00:12:55,650 --> 00:13:04,100 bones have been assigned some weight to them and that's with the automatic weights So pretty cool. 149 00:13:04,100 --> 00:13:12,360 I believe that is pretty much all the tweaking that we need to do for the weights painting. 150 00:13:12,680 --> 00:13:16,180 Now let's actually check this bottom one right here. 151 00:13:17,530 --> 00:13:21,450 This bottom one let me see 152 00:13:34,590 --> 00:13:35,950 there we go deform. 153 00:13:35,950 --> 00:13:41,910 All right so for this forum on what I'm wanting to do is actually 154 00:13:44,860 --> 00:13:49,400 I mean I leave it like this for now because it's giving me the result that I want. 155 00:13:49,670 --> 00:13:50,380 Although 156 00:13:53,710 --> 00:14:02,560 I'm actually going to select this one hit tab to go into edit mode and select all these vertices right 157 00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:03,550 here. 158 00:14:03,550 --> 00:14:08,570 I actually had control tab going to face select mode select all these faces. 159 00:14:10,380 --> 00:14:12,710 Not all of those. 160 00:14:13,590 --> 00:14:20,700 Sometimes you get a little crazy with a selection and then with that bonus like that I'm actually going 161 00:14:20,700 --> 00:14:26,850 to put this to one and see what that gives us. 162 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:47,890 And with this one selecting a hit tab to go into edit mode and just remove that way from there 163 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:52,640 and I like that better. 164 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:58,830 It's got a little you know a little bounciness to it. 165 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:05,290 It's got a lot of squishiness too at the bottom now it's kind of like a squishy mushroom. 166 00:15:05,290 --> 00:15:06,630 So I like it like that. 167 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,850 We're going to leave it right there for now. 168 00:15:09,010 --> 00:15:14,140 And we might come back our we might go back to the weight painting if we see that we need to make a 169 00:15:14,140 --> 00:15:15,270 couple of tweaks. 170 00:15:15,550 --> 00:15:25,250 But for now that is pretty much the weight painting and our mushroom character is ready to be animated. 171 00:15:25,420 --> 00:15:31,840 And of course you don't want to twist him too much in a way that he wouldn't twist for example if I 172 00:15:31,930 --> 00:15:39,580 like this and twist it too much you could see some twisting in the actual mash So we're actually going 173 00:15:39,580 --> 00:15:49,400 to possibly put some rotation limits on some of these so that we could actually not twist them in a 174 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:53,780 way that wouldn't twist if that makes sense. 175 00:15:53,780 --> 00:15:55,710 Of course it makes sense. 176 00:15:55,910 --> 00:16:02,500 And then of course we're going to have to parent the hands to the main bone down here. 177 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,480 But we'll do that in a future story. 178
