WEBVTT 00:00.270 --> 00:03.010 Welcome to you v unwrapping ahead. 00:03.210 --> 00:07.900 So in this video we're going to be thinking about your Seems a where the placement is. 00:07.970 --> 00:10.310 We're going to try and leave the face intact. 00:10.320 --> 00:16.360 That is without seems how we're going to discover any parts that might need their own island. 00:16.680 --> 00:20.480 So let's hop straight on over into blender and unwrap our head. 00:20.850 --> 00:27.140 Okay so we've back over in blender and I've done a few final tweaks on my model. 00:27.140 --> 00:29.190 I brought the chest forward a little. 00:29.190 --> 00:33.690 It was very far back in fact and probably come forward even a little bit more. 00:33.690 --> 00:37.070 The plinth just going to turn off and hide it out the way for the moment. 00:37.200 --> 00:43.980 And the head itself well it's bulging ever so slightly and I do need to fix that because otherwise it's 00:43.980 --> 00:50.010 going to look horrible So let's look at it from the front skew it slightly to one side and then scale 00:50.010 --> 00:52.090 it in using proportional editing. 00:52.170 --> 00:58.950 Not all the way because it will look like a hole in my head but about their CO that looks much better 00:59.240 --> 01:01.140 and is going to do these two here as well. 01:01.140 --> 01:08.280 Now I could faff about with a mirror and try and do both sides then mirror it background but I would 01:08.280 --> 01:11.130 probably end up ruining my sculped if I were to do that. 01:11.140 --> 01:11.590 Okay. 01:11.850 --> 01:13.360 That's looking much much better. 01:13.390 --> 01:15.990 Okay so now I've got the head here. 01:16.080 --> 01:18.330 What we need to do is think about unwrapping. 01:18.390 --> 01:26.640 Now we need to think carefully about which areas we want to include in one part of a V mesh. 01:26.640 --> 01:31.550 Now the IS themselves can be separated from our model. 01:31.560 --> 01:34.040 That's a definite yes in this case. 01:34.050 --> 01:36.430 We don't need the ears as part of our model. 01:36.460 --> 01:43.040 It's only going to cause problems having them there or confusion all had inhaled downshift us or selecting. 01:43.060 --> 01:43.250 Okay. 01:43.260 --> 01:45.140 So now I have selected both of those. 01:45.140 --> 01:48.560 I will use control and E to mark a scene. 01:48.990 --> 01:51.430 Okay so those are the is separate. 01:51.510 --> 01:54.640 Now we've got to think carefully about our scenes. 01:54.690 --> 02:01.350 If we cut out that just let's say grab the face running around facing use that's or find is we end up 02:01.350 --> 02:07.880 with a line where we start texturing our model and we don't want a harsh line on the side of the face. 02:07.880 --> 02:09.360 We would notice that. 02:09.480 --> 02:15.330 So really we only perhaps want to come down as far as how or indeed where the hairline would be severe 02:15.330 --> 02:17.640 imagine where the hairline is on the model. 02:17.700 --> 02:24.330 They'll be a good place to have a seam because we can hide it no matter what you do in general seams 02:24.360 --> 02:27.410 will cause some sort of horrible artefacts. 02:27.570 --> 02:33.930 When it comes to your model and we want to avoid that during texturing So we certainly want the front 02:33.930 --> 02:41.270 of the face and cut not cut out as such but on prominent display and then we got the rest of our model. 02:41.310 --> 02:48.540 Now depending on what we want to do and what we want to texture we can just decide to omit some of these 02:48.540 --> 02:49.260 other bits. 02:49.350 --> 02:54.280 But that's entirely up to you as an artist to work that out. 02:54.360 --> 02:58.360 Now in terms of where to cut it we certainly don't want to seem down face. 02:58.560 --> 03:04.190 I would suggest a T shape running from about here on the side of the head. 03:04.200 --> 03:11.670 So by the temple all the way up to the centre and then back down equally on one side and cut down the 03:11.670 --> 03:15.280 back of the model as well all the way down to the bottom. 03:15.360 --> 03:23.790 And of course that leads us on to a challenge unlike you to go ahead and create your you v map so finish 03:23.880 --> 03:25.420 unwrapping your model. 03:25.440 --> 03:31.980 Think about where you're going to place your seams and optimize your U.S. map to make sure the face 03:32.010 --> 03:33.090 is more prominent. 03:33.090 --> 03:40.650 You may find on your model that the face ends up a very small part of the overall image a video now 03:40.710 --> 03:42.110 and give that a go. 03:44.530 --> 03:45.310 Okay guys. 03:45.310 --> 03:46.140 Welcome back. 03:46.270 --> 03:49.330 Let's go ahead and finish off the UVA unwrap. 03:50.100 --> 03:57.060 Okay so we're back over in blender and the first thing I'm going to do is just try selecting a few edge 03:57.060 --> 03:59.450 loops to see if we've got any That suits. 03:59.460 --> 04:03.540 Now this one comes down to the top of the cheek the top of the jaw. 04:03.540 --> 04:04.650 So that's going to be too far. 04:04.650 --> 04:08.850 I do think this one here is going to be our best bet. 04:08.850 --> 04:14.540 So let's bring this down here because that would be underneath the hairline. 04:15.290 --> 04:21.960 Cavers bring this cross here and want some all the way across of course I can then use the loop cutting 04:21.960 --> 04:22.930 tools again. 04:22.950 --> 04:26.040 There we go or loop select tools to select the rest of it. 04:26.040 --> 04:31.550 Now if I go ahead and select this loop here and she goes all the way down the front soddy the have unselect 04:31.560 --> 04:34.160 all of those or just select all the ones down the back. 04:34.170 --> 04:37.800 And I want to avoid actually selecting any on the front. 04:37.800 --> 04:40.560 So let's go ahead and select those for you there. 04:40.560 --> 04:47.640 Before I go any further I am going to mark a scene with control in E and make sure that this bit is 04:47.640 --> 04:49.070 at least started. 04:49.170 --> 04:54.810 Then I'm going to go around and bounced down to the back of the model here and just carry on selecting 04:54.810 --> 04:56.410 these as I go. 04:56.430 --> 05:00.780 I'm going to zoom in here simply because it's going to be a nightmare to try and select these edges 05:00.780 --> 05:02.020 otherwise. 05:02.130 --> 05:09.780 And this is one of those unfortunately slightly tedious tasks when it comes to modelling or he's got 05:09.780 --> 05:12.260 to do something so repetitive. 05:12.270 --> 05:18.690 But it gives us a lot of manual control and there's no other way of automatically selecting just the 05:18.690 --> 05:19.560 ones we want. 05:19.680 --> 05:22.740 So control an E again and mark a seam. 05:23.070 --> 05:26.350 Okay so let's go and see what that looks like. 05:26.400 --> 05:30.080 Opening up a u v image editor. 05:31.880 --> 05:33.260 There you go. 05:34.030 --> 05:39.390 And let's go ahead and also add a new image shall we shall be. 05:39.390 --> 05:43.400 Are diffused maps of let's call it diffuse map. 05:44.690 --> 05:48.970 And let's call it head to fuse map. 05:49.130 --> 05:49.740 Okay. 05:49.770 --> 05:51.070 Now in terms of resolution. 05:51.100 --> 05:56.190 I'm going to choose to go for it too if for right and leave it at that. 05:56.400 --> 06:01.460 So I'm going to select everything here and unwrap and let's see what a mess we get. 06:02.570 --> 06:03.270 Okay. 06:03.710 --> 06:09.820 Now this might be slightly challenging and I can see here in fact but I might have selected. 06:09.980 --> 06:13.670 Yes there's an extra seam on my ears. 06:13.700 --> 06:18.710 Now I am going to go fix that because that will make something unbalanced later on. 06:18.710 --> 06:21.950 So one of them's there I thought I'd got them both no. 06:21.980 --> 06:26.280 Okay so we need this edge here be a martz's a seam for it to match. 06:26.390 --> 06:28.410 And this one here. 06:28.490 --> 06:29.780 There we go. 06:30.080 --> 06:32.870 Mixture of wrong key presses. 06:32.870 --> 06:33.440 There we go. 06:33.470 --> 06:37.060 Have unmarked that lets you ve unwrap. 06:37.070 --> 06:37.490 There we go. 06:37.490 --> 06:40.410 So two ears here are the right size. 06:40.460 --> 06:46.460 Now one of the things I'm going to do is completely hide our 3D mesh for the moment so I can focus on 06:46.460 --> 06:46.820 this. 06:47.000 --> 06:48.850 And you guys can see as well. 06:49.160 --> 06:55.070 So I'm going no using board a select select just the ears and then shift them out of the way. 06:55.080 --> 07:00.220 So I'm going to use proportional editing in fact it's already turned on let's turn it off before moving. 07:00.260 --> 07:02.080 Good place them over here for the moment. 07:02.080 --> 07:08.600 Now of course this textual Naturally unless we tell it otherwise repeats this would end up taking on 07:08.600 --> 07:12.790 whatever part of the texture exists on here we'll move them back in a moment. 07:13.250 --> 07:20.460 Because I want to select everything else that's here and see if I can align it that little bit better. 07:20.480 --> 07:22.730 I do want this face part of it. 07:22.730 --> 07:27.920 I mean this is this is a two thousand by two thousand odd pixel picture. 07:28.100 --> 07:31.350 And the head is taking up a tiny proportion of it. 07:31.520 --> 07:40.320 So with this with proportional editing turned on we can scale up the head parts of our models. 07:40.330 --> 07:48.650 So let's go ahead and do that now and we can scale the whole thing up rather than just the face itself 07:48.650 --> 07:52.190 and then it'll be a bit more uniform when it comes to texturing as well. 07:52.340 --> 07:58.250 Now one thing I notice here is of course you can push it through itself and we don't want to do that 07:58.250 --> 08:01.250 because that will cause some horrible ness as well. 08:01.250 --> 08:07.270 So here what we can do is try different types of proportional falloff. 08:07.270 --> 08:13.280 Some will try sharp because that's going to make more of a difference in the middle and less on the 08:13.280 --> 08:14.370 outside. 08:14.380 --> 08:21.380 Now if we see when I do this it means that the top of the head and under the chin are basically becoming 08:21.380 --> 08:26.870 more and more compressed in our image and our face is taking up more of it. 08:26.920 --> 08:28.220 I am. 08:28.550 --> 08:33.650 I'm liking that that's now taking up a good proportion of our model or of our image sorry. 08:33.650 --> 08:39.410 So the final thing here is to go ahead and how I've still got this one selects its over go ahead and 08:39.410 --> 08:39.780 move it. 08:39.780 --> 08:42.190 I'm going to screw things up big style. 08:42.350 --> 08:47.330 So let's make sure nothing selected before trying to move these ears back onto the model. 08:47.330 --> 08:54.090 Now ordinarily you do have to be a bit careful when it comes to scaling something so weak chop the face 08:54.090 --> 08:56.530 out separately and scale that up. 08:56.660 --> 09:03.200 You'd find any textures will replying would be different in scale on one part of our model than the 09:03.320 --> 09:04.010 other. 09:04.010 --> 09:05.690 And that will be true here as well. 09:05.690 --> 09:11.600 As we go towards the neck or behind the ear so this case I don't think that's going to cause us any 09:11.600 --> 09:13.890 problems even if we do put stubble on. 09:14.000 --> 09:18.220 That should still be fine if it's not we might have to revisit the unwrap. 09:18.290 --> 09:25.210 But I've made the face much more prominent so I can add better detail to it as well as your you ve unwrapped. 09:25.220 --> 09:27.610 Go did you get a similar sort of looking. 09:27.660 --> 09:29.600 You've unwrap to me. 09:29.750 --> 09:32.090 If not what did you end up with. 09:32.240 --> 09:36.270 Please share in the discussions and I will see you in the next lecture.
