So, I've noticed that some people tend to use a hand-painted gradient base across the entire model, as well as some ambient occlusion and edge-detection. Is that some sort of baking tool or plugin for Maya or 3DS Max that people use as base before actually painting the texture? Is there anything like that for Blender?

Hello there. I try to paint weight my character but when i click to a vertex to paint it off. It instant go wrong like this (attach file). Anybody know how to fix this :( ?. Thanks

I know i've always been able to snap to a point via just a single axis, but now it just won't work. Any ideas what i'm doing wrong? Pic for reference
Continous practice of the fundamentals to refresh and strengthen your basics is something I am currently undertaking in my free time. Which is the most important -drawing or painting? especially for building muscle memory of how things should look. I also feel painting is important too as to grasp light, color and shading…
Hey everyone! I am completely new to Substance Painter and I have no idea how to paint with Smart Materials? I can't just drag and drop my smart material into the Paint properties :( Or can I just make a fill layer with smart materials? Hope you can help me! Christoph

I've been messing around with modeling and mapping as a hobby and thought that I should probably start from the basics and build up from there. So I'm posting my first digital painting here for some critiques. It'd just a painting of a girl. It doesn't look quite…
