Ornatrix/Maya grooming for character "Commander" from Samir Mir. Episode 7

Image
  This is Episode 7 of the tutorial about creating a hairstyle in Ornatrix Maya for the Commander character, which was made by Samir Mir. In this video - I continue to work with the guides in Edit Guides, namely improving the shape of the guides on the back of the head and near the ear. I talk about a new feature in Ornatrix v4 - Hide Non-Selected and you can already use it. When I recorded the video - it did not exist then, so I first select the guides, invert the selection and hide the excess. And now you can just isolate the guides you want right away - without doing anything unnecessary. ___ Become a channel sponsor and get a 15%, 50%, 100% discount on all my assets.

What is the process for preparing the response?

Hello friends! Someone recently told me on Discord that I cannot answer even a simple question quickly, but I can find time to think about philosophical topics. But that was then... now I don't have time for that either =) This was the inspiration for this article. I want to talk about the reasons why I can philosophize and take the time to do so, but I cannot answer simple questions quickly. We will talk about the workings of my brain and other details in another article. Simply put, 3D issues require focus and attention. This may be easy for some people, but as someone who is passionate about the subject, it is difficult for me. On the other hand, philosophical chatter is a separate topic that does not require as much brain work. I believe that my answers, lessons, and other materials can be useful not only to the person who asked the question, but to everyone else. This is important. Now I want to talk about how I prepare answers to the questions that I am asked in Telegram. In ...

Time to answer "Autodesk Maya - How do I download 2020.4 after subscribing?

Hello everyone! Today I decided to make an experiment and try to answer one of your questions as soon as possible. This is in response to a complaint from one of my subscribers who claims that I do not answer simple and basic questions in a timely manner. Some people may not realize that even the simplest questions take time to answer. Although a question may seem simple, it may take time to answer that I could be spending on other tasks or projects. Therefore, please remember that even if a question seems elementary, it takes time and effort to answer. Respect other people's time and evaluate your requests to them. I conducted an experiment to show that it is possible to answer questions quickly. However, this does not mean that everyone of you can now demand an instant answer. Please do not insist on quick answers, as it can be tiring and distract me from other tasks. I hope that this experiment has shown you that it is important to be patient and wait your turn. If you cannot wa...

About 3D questions - in private messages

Lately I have been dealing with people who do not value my time. They think I should answer their questions right away, even if I am busy. They do not want to join the group where I help and answer questions because they think it is too difficult. My point is that questions are not easy. Even the simplest question can take a few minutes to answer. Time is precious. Even 15 minutes is a lot, and I am not used to answering just to make them go away. When I am in the middle of my work, I get annoyed if I am distracted by questions. I have my own time for questions. So I am sorry, but I cannot answer your questions right now. Just be considerate and understand that I have a life too. I am constantly working towards my goal and rarely have time to give advice, answer questions privately, get distracted or do anything for anyone. Yes, my life circumstances have changed and it is important for me to do everything for my family (grandparents). When I communicate, it is for relaxation, rest, an...

Mastering Metahuman Hair Painting with Ornatrix and Unreal Engine 5

  In this video, I show how I created a complex hair painting in Metahuman using the Ornatrix plugin for Unreal Engine 5. I use the Vertex Hair Paint feature to paint the hair color directly on the hair model, allowing me to achieve a more accurate and realistic result. After finishing the painting, I demonstrate how to enable the display of the hair color in a special shader. This allows me to achieve a more realistic and natural look for the hair in my projects. Throughout the video, I explain each step of the process in detail and provide tips to help you create your own Metahuman hair painting using Ornatrix. I also discuss some best practices for working with Vertex Hair Paint and shaders to help you achieve the best results.
