Depends what you mean by quick... You can easily append the material into your new file or assign it to a new head/character very quickly. You would just have to sort out the empties (controllers) so that they are aligned with the new head.

@@pmdesigns5798 It works fine. I tried it on a flat 3d spherical eye, it worked too. Muchas Gracias

Sorry, I wouldn't know.

I'm not really sure what you mean by making the threads triangular. I recommend you go ahead and add a bolt using the "bolt factory" add-on and see what you can do by adjusting the various settings.

Ummm... You might want to avoid my channel if you don't want to see horrible things happen to Pikachu.

Thanks very much for the Like and Sub. Unfortunately, I don't know anything about rigging for UE5. Sorry.

@@pmdesigns5798 how about animating the wolf after it changes human form? Bigger body fingers different knees, after i scale in local axis and use that pose it messes up becayse of the scales

@@sunfix991 As suggested in the video, if you were doing this morphing effect, then you would only do it for the morph animation. Once the morph is complete, swap out to your correctly rigged wolf creature.

@@pmdesigns5798 gotcha thanks, another queston, any idea on how to make a animation of hair growing? for the werewolf, and do you wanna see it how i made it? i can showin discord

Have you tried turning on the closed captioning? CZcams's auto-generated subtitles seem to understand every word I say perfectly.

@@pmdesigns5798 Yes that's what I had to do, but it makes it harder to follow to read the CC and carefully watch the video instructions. Blender instructions are hard to follow to begin with.

I haven't, but I feel that this is faster. You don't need to manually input as many keyframes, and you can still decide to switch to 1s if you wanted to have a fast/sudden action, as in real stop-motion animation. Edit* Also, it's never a good idea to render as video directly. If it crashes, you have to start from scratch. If there's a problem with one frame, you have to render it all over again. I can't think of any advantage of rendering directly to video, other than it saves you 2 minutes of work in a video sequencer/editor.

On an unrelated note: Are you aware that your avatar looks like a member of the KKK?

It's a difficult question to answer because everyone is different. I've been using blender for about 4 years. But that's part-time. I'm also a father and work full-time, so if you have a lot of free time, you can practise a lot more. I've never trained in art or any 3D software, so if you have experience/training in either of those, that will also decrease the time needed to get good. There are a lot of aspects to learn - modelling, rigging, texturing, to name a few), so pick one and get that down first. Don't overload yourself trying to learn every aspect at once. Just keep at it! Do some tutorials to get the basics down, and then just try setting yourself some targets. Once you've thought of something to make, try doing it with what knowledge you currently have. If you come to something you can't do, find out how to do that part. The blenderartists weekend challenge is a great way to get inspiration, if you're not sure what to make. Would love to see you involved in the next weekend challenge. There's one running now... blenderartists.org/t/challenge-1092-ring-24-05-24-entries-open/1531192/8

Thank you very much!

You're most welcome.

Thank you

Great 👍

Thank you. I think a lot of people don't bother "liking", even though they found it useful.

@@pmdesigns5798 Please don't be sad, I am sure your videos are still on the right track as youtube algorithm brings me straight away to your video, it is on top of every search results ! Cheers mate !

Nevermind found out it was cause I had to change the rotation of the coordinates as well

Did you adjust the scale of your "eye controller" empty? If so, you need to apply the scale transforms (CTRL+A but make sure you only apply the scale, not rotation or location).

Glad it was helpful!

Add a MixRGB node after the two Displacement nodes and before the material output. Connect both Displacement nodes into the Color 1 and Color 2 sockets and the factor is controlled in the same way.

Yes. There's a part 3 on my channel which covers using image textures.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that. It's a built-in addon in Blender, called Rigify. Go to the "Edit" menu (next to File), then at the bottom of that menu is "Preferences". On the left, select "Addons", then search for "Rigify". Enable that. Now you can add a human metarig from the add armature menu.

@@pmdesigns5798 thank you 🙏

Most likely location or rotation

Once you've made the shapekey, hover your mouse over the shapekey value at 0 and press "i". Then change the value to 1, and press "i" again, while your cursor is hovering over that shapekey value.

Happy to help

Thanks

Thanks for the visit

Yeah, of course, but you just need to make sure the extra bits (bones, organs, etc) are rigged.

You are welcome!

Glad to help!

Yes. I usually box model stylized characters. This is the first time I've tried to sculpt a more realistic character.

Thanks for the tip. I usually use Audacity for noise reduction, but I'll give that a try.

That one was recorded on a square monitor.

Selected all of the edges around the eye with ALT+Left click, then press F, to fill it with a face.
