Blender Basics Tutorial

This is the second of two new videos on my channel focused on Blender specifically for sims cc artists! This is great for both recolor artists and creators. I go super slow and explain everything I am doing in lots of detail. I have files for you so you can work alongside me in these videos! All the download links are in the youtube description :)

This one is long so grab a glass of wine while you watch! I made sure to not make any assumptions and skip around. I took my time to show you all the steps and different ways of doing things. 

This tutorial covers: 

Modifying meshes 

Editing UV maps 

Assigning materials 

Essential tips and tricks 

 At the end of this tutorial you will have extracted part of an EA object, modified its mesh and its UV map, created a proper drop shadow, and have a mesh that is ready to create a package file with! Before getting started make sure to download Blender and the files if you want to work along with me.

Part of the Sims CC Fundamentals series, this video gives a very quick overview of the Blender 2.79 interface and some terminology I will be using in future videos. I have spent alot of time (suffering) creating the workspace I go over in this video. Blender workspaces can be super customizable, but you don't need all the bells and whistles to create CC. So if you would like to follow along with my tutorials please download my Blender startup workspace file and I will cover how to set it as the default in the video!

How To Fix Shading Issues

Apparently I am on a tutorial bender! I made this tutorial for a friend awhile ago and decided to convert it and make it available on my website. The item I use as an example is a dress imported into Blender from Marvelous Designer... but the process is the same for any object with shading issues!
