Learn the basics of voxel sculpts, fossil sketches, and voxel designs in 3D Coat, from a decade of graphic work, for workflow and software's advantages and disadvantages in massive mech.
Refine the chest plate by dividing torso into parts, smoothing edges, and adjusting proportions to match the helmet design, using ellipse cuts and the guillotine for a cleaner voxel model.
Learn how to sculpt and clean up the torso of a massive mech in 3D Coat, shown as a timelapse walkthrough.
Explore foot joints mechanics for a massive mech, detailing actuated tubes, electric motors, and a movable lower leg that balances fit, motion, and 3d printing potential.
Explore the vox layer tool to create complex geometry by line and rectangular selections, set parameters, and quickly generate skins with thickness; auto works speeds up surface creation.
create a pelvis-centered hierarchy to enable quick posing, with the abs rotating with the pelvis. use proxy and decimate for speed, and manage cache to avoid data loss.
Export large models in 3D Coat by splitting the mesh into chunks to stay under 40 million triangles, manage RAM, and handle decimate prompts across poses.
Learn to create a Photoshop postprocessing action that uses a new layer, blue glow, smart objects, noise, color lookup, levels, contrast, and a white logo overlay.
Start on a comprehensive journey into the intricacies of designing a sophisticated robot within 3DCoat with this in-depth tutorial.
The process unfolds from an initial rough 3D sketch, gradually evolving into a meticulously articulated and posable assembly. Notably, significant emphasis is placed on crafting proper joints for various segments of the robot model, ensuring a realistic construction.
Comprising a total of 44 video chapters, this tutorial is structured to provide concise yet thorough explanations, with the majority featuring quick 3-5 minute tool demonstrations. Additionally, time-lapses accelerated to 4 times real-time speed, are used to efficiently guide you through more extensive sections of the tutorial.
Drawing on a rich two-year experience of using 3D Coat daily, the instructor shares extensive insights into maximizing the software's potential while maintaining awareness of bugs and common issues.
This knowledge serves to empower you with a nuanced understanding of the software's capabilities and challenges, fostering a well-rounded mastery.
As a bonus, the tutorial includes a promotional code for access to a photo pack featuring a Gundam Robot statue in Tokyo. Serving as both an original inspiration and reference for the tutorial, the code, along with project files, hotkey lists, and the robot model, is conveniently located in the first lecture.
