- Hi, I'm Stéphane Bourez, I'm a 3D artist
and a motion graphic designer.
And today we are going to have a quick sneak peek
of my new Skillshare class.
We are going to paint on the 3D model using Procreate 5.2.
Let's have a look.
(upbeat music)
We are going to start with the base layer.
So, I've gone back to the blank dragon here
and I've created a new layer called base color
which is right now completely empty.
So we have no color, no roughness and no metallic.
And what we want, is to feel this entire layer
with a dark blue color.
We have three ways to do so.
So let's pick one of the airbrush.
We're going to pick the soft brush there
and we start to paint it.
And we're going to look at the behavior of the paint
and how it projects onto the model.
And you know, we're going to have a massive brush
to project all the paint on the layer here.
And we think, "okay, that's it",
but in fact, no, it isn't.
You see, like in real life, all the paint has been projected
on the mesh, but the different parts
that were not exposed, have not been painted.
We could go ahead and paint everywhere and check,
oh we need to do the inside of the mouth and check,
and the underneath and check.
But that feels a little bit silly, right?
It is like, mm, surely there is a better way to do this.
And yeah, there is.
You can go and click on the layer and press on clear.
Now we are again on a completely empty layer.
So, have a quick look here.
I have picked my dark blue color
and if I click on a base color here,
we have somewhere here something
that is fill layer here, right?
That's it.
So what it did is entirely filled the entire layer
with this blue color.
It only filled this kind of island.
And if we look at actions, we go into the 3D tab here.
We say, show 2D texture.
Let's have a look at that.
We see that it has filled the entire silhouette
of our carpet dragon.
Now, something to note, let's go back into 3D.
When we pick the layer from the top and we say, fill layer.
If we look at the sub layers here, it's only took care
of the colors of channel and that's perfectly fine.
We are going to do the roughness of the skin
on a separate layer together.
Now, here is a third way
of doing an entire fill layer of that color.
We're going to clear all this.
I personally like to do it via these kind of layers.
You can also go into the sub layers,
click on the cube, select color, tap on this
and here, fill layer.
It does also the same thing.
So many ways, you can choose one of these ways
to fill your entire entire mesh.
So, now we are going to add a little bit
of a cool roughness to that.
And here, we are going to use a new layer.
Cool, I'm going to rename that.
And for this, we're going to select a nice brush.
So I've created quite a few brushes here
and I've created some with different type of skin textures.
And we are going to be able
to look at them in detail later on.
Let's take this one, just to have a quick look.
And we are going to go into our skin roughness.
And of course here,
we're going to select the roughness channel.
And I think a good way we can start,
is to first select an entire black color
and fill our layer entirely with black.
So now it's entirely super shiny.
Now, if I take my nice little gray here again,
20 or 30 should do.
I'm going to start painting with that textured brush.
I can do it either by painting
on this mesh, doing it kind of manually here.
We can see that we start
to have this kind of nice detail
in the reflections, right?
It's got this kind of nice little uneven kind of textures.
And I can paint that way.
And you would be thinking,
"well, we could very well just go into the 2D texture
and paint on the roughness here".
Unfortunately, when we are on the sub-channel here
in the 2D mode of the texture space,
Procreate doesn't show you the kind
of different sub-channel.
It will only show you the color sub-channel.
So let's go back to our 3D view there,
and let's continue to add our little roughness texture.
Right? Put that a little bit lower.
I'm going to start, continue to add that.
So now here, I'm completely done with this roughness layer.
You can see
that we have some nice variations here
and there on the skin.
It's very subtle.
So you can see them a little bit around here.
And when we'll have some brighter, lighter color,
it will show quite nicely.
So you want to download your own free dragon
and paint on it, using Procreate,
click on the link below, and I'll see you on Skillshare.
