0:00:07.216,0:00:09.266
>> In this video, we are going to walk you

0:00:09.266,0:00:12.296
through your first steps[br]with Substance 3D painter.

0:00:12.656,0:00:17.186
Painter allows you to paint on 3D models[br]using a familiar layer based workflow.

0:00:18.016,0:00:25.836
A project begins by importing a 3D model[br]and using the automated baking tools

0:00:26.086,0:00:30.186
to create information about the model[br]that can help in the texturing process.

0:00:31.116,0:00:36.376
The 3D view showcases your model in 3D space and[br]allows you to paint directly on the 3D model.

0:00:39.406,0:00:43.416
The texture set list represents materials[br]that were assigned to the 3D model

0:00:43.716,0:00:47.926
when it was created in a 3D modeling[br]application such as Maya or Blender.

0:00:49.496,0:00:53.146
Each texture set has its own dedicated[br]layer stack, where you will work

0:00:53.146,0:00:55.686
to create textures and materials[br]for your project.

0:00:57.016,0:01:00.066
The properties panel allows you[br]to make adjustments to parameters

0:01:00.126,0:01:01.976
such as changing properties on a brush.

0:01:09.166,0:01:13.196
The asset panel contains various[br]content such as materials, brushes,

0:01:13.196,0:01:15.896
and textures that you can use in your project.

0:01:18.966,0:01:23.366
Now that we've taken a quick tour of the UI,[br]let's dive in and texture an object in Painter

0:01:23.366,0:01:26.056
as we take a hands-on approach[br]to learning the tool.

0:01:27.526,0:01:30.396
So let's go to file, new, and for the template,

0:01:30.396,0:01:34.496
I'm going to use the first option[br]here for PPR metallic roughness.

0:01:34.496,0:01:37.786
For the file, I'm going to[br]navigate to the content folder

0:01:37.786,0:01:39.536
and use the roller skate 3D model.

0:01:39.536,0:01:40.836
We'll click open.

0:01:41.216,0:01:45.936
Here I'm going to set my document[br]resolution to 2048 and I'm going to make sure

0:01:45.936,0:01:47.936
that these options here are disabled.

0:01:48.596,0:01:52.156
So I'll click okay and Substance[br]Painter's now going to create the project.

0:01:52.816,0:01:55.816
So you'll notice here that[br]I have a 3D and a 2D view.

0:01:56.216,0:01:58.236
In this course we're only[br]going to work with the 3D view.

0:01:58.236,0:02:04.156
So here, towards the top of the UI, I[br]am going to switch the view to 3D only.

0:02:05.606,0:02:09.006
Now to navigate the 3D view,[br]you can hold down the Alt key

0:02:09.006,0:02:11.866
and use your left mouse button[br]to orbit the view.

0:02:13.776,0:02:16.966
Using the Alt key and the[br]middle mouse button, I can pan.

0:02:17.936,0:02:21.776
And using the Alt key and the right[br]mouse button, I can zoom in and out.

0:02:22.796,0:02:25.426
You can hit the F key on the[br]keyboard to focus the view.

0:02:27.476,0:02:30.576
Now the 3D view is lit using an environment map.

0:02:31.456,0:02:34.146
So I'm going to come over[br]here to my display settings

0:02:35.576,0:02:39.806
and in the environment settings you can see[br]here that I have an environment map option.

0:02:42.356,0:02:45.966
I'm going to turn the opacity[br]up and the environment blur down

0:02:45.966,0:02:48.596
and here you can see this[br]environment that is lighting my scene.

0:02:48.596,0:02:51.636
If I change the environment rotation,

0:02:51.706,0:02:54.376
I can change the lighting[br]direction here in my viewport.

0:02:55.816,0:02:59.656
If I want to change the lighting, I can[br]come over to the environment map button

0:02:59.656,0:03:02.866
and click this option and choose[br]a different environment map.

0:03:02.866,0:03:06.206
For this course I'm going to[br]stay with the default panorama.

0:03:06.656,0:03:09.926
I'm also going to take the environment[br]opacity and set this back to zero

0:03:09.926,0:03:11.526
and then close the display settings.

0:03:12.056,0:03:15.826
To rotate the environment with the[br]keyboard shortcut, you can use the Shift key

0:03:15.826,0:03:18.976
and the right mouse button left to[br]right to rotate the environment.

0:03:23.056,0:03:27.176
Next I'm going to come up to the edit menu[br]and I'm going to choose to bake the mesh maps.

0:03:27.956,0:03:31.726
Here in the output size, I'm going[br]to set my resolution to 2048.

0:03:32.516,0:03:37.796
Now here in the options, I'm going to disable[br]this normal option as well as this ID option.

0:03:38.106,0:03:42.806
We're going to leave everything else at the[br]default and then choose bake selected textures.

0:03:43.666,0:03:48.296
Substance Painter is now creating a series of[br]maps that contain information about the mesh.

0:03:48.766,0:03:51.116
These maps can help in the texturing process.

0:03:51.116,0:03:54.526
For example when using smart[br]materials to apply details based

0:03:54.526,0:03:57.166
on parts of the mesh, such as the edges.

0:03:59.436,0:04:01.766
Now we're going to start[br]adding materials to the skate.

0:04:02.666,0:04:05.946
Here in the assets panel, I'm going[br]to select the smart materials.

0:04:07.346,0:04:11.626
And in the search I'm going to[br]do a search for steel, dark,

0:04:11.626,0:04:14.606
and here you can see that[br]we have steel dark aged.

0:04:15.356,0:04:20.576
I'm going to left click and drag and drop[br]this material here to base of the skate.

0:04:20.866,0:04:21.886
I let go of my mouse.

0:04:22.216,0:04:23.676
The material is applied.

0:04:23.946,0:04:27.356
You'll notice that the texture set[br]list is selected, which is base,

0:04:27.496,0:04:30.616
and now the smart material has[br]been applied to the layer stack.

0:04:31.426,0:04:34.406
Our material is a material[br]built from a group of layers.

0:04:34.836,0:04:38.866
You can save a group of layers as a[br]smart material to use in any project

0:04:38.866,0:04:40.816
and they are a great way to get started quickly.

0:04:43.196,0:04:45.466
Now we're going to mask this material.

0:04:45.916,0:04:48.256
So here in the group I'm[br]going to click this option

0:04:48.256,0:04:50.506
which allows me to create a geometry mask.

0:04:51.036,0:04:54.186
Here in the properties here[br]in this list I can see all

0:04:54.186,0:04:56.836
of the mesh parts in the base texture set.

0:04:57.256,0:04:59.816
Holding down the Control[br]key and left click and drag,

0:04:59.816,0:05:02.906
I can quickly deselect all of the mesh parts.

0:05:04.576,0:05:08.106
In the 3D view I can click the part[br]where I want the material to appear.

0:05:09.066,0:05:12.256
I can also use the properties[br]to select mesh parts as well.

0:05:12.526,0:05:15.806
Here I'm going to choose[br]the axles and the brackets.

0:05:16.826,0:05:20.976
Once I've made my selection, I can[br]exit the mask mode by coming over here

0:05:20.976,0:05:23.206
to the material icon and left clicking.

0:05:23.786,0:05:28.926
Now you can see that we have masked our[br]material to specific locations here on the mesh.

0:05:30.886,0:05:34.316
So let's continue the process and[br]add some additional materials.

0:05:34.436,0:05:39.546
I'm going to jump back to the assets and here in[br]the search I'm going to do a search for silver

0:05:39.546,0:05:42.176
and I'm going to use this silver armor material.

0:05:42.436,0:05:45.456
I'll left click, drag and[br]drop that here to the base.

0:05:46.016,0:05:47.776
You can see that a layer is created.

0:05:48.046,0:05:51.986
I'm going to jump into the mask,[br]hold down the Control key, left click

0:05:51.986,0:05:54.306
and drag to quickly deselect everything.

0:05:54.306,0:06:02.866
And now I'm going to enable the bearings,[br]bolts, bushing connectors, nuts, eyelets, hooks.

0:06:03.026,0:06:05.686
And that will take care of[br]all of the selections.

0:06:06.206,0:06:09.716
I can exit the mask mode by[br]clicking the material icon.

0:06:10.346,0:06:12.866
And here we have applied another material.

0:06:12.946,0:06:15.316
We now have two materials[br]on the base of the skate.

0:06:15.746,0:06:17.486
Now let's come over to our assets.

0:06:17.546,0:06:20.136
Again, I'm filtering based on smart materials.

0:06:20.136,0:06:23.346
And this time I'm going to type in plastic used.

0:06:23.346,0:06:25.756
And I'm going to use this plastic used material.

0:06:25.756,0:06:29.346
Left click, drag and drop[br]here to the base of the skate.

0:06:29.846,0:06:32.266
You can see it's now on top of my layer stack.

0:06:32.846,0:06:37.086
I'm going to enter the mask mode[br]once again, Control left click

0:06:37.086,0:06:39.616
and drag to deselect all of the parts.

0:06:39.806,0:06:46.326
And now we're going to select the[br]wheels, the bushings, and the stopper.

0:06:46.326,0:06:48.396
Now I'm going to exit the mask mode.

0:06:49.416,0:06:54.206
At this point I would like to make some changes[br]to the layers that make up this smart material.

0:06:54.206,0:06:56.806
So I will click the folder[br]to expand the layer group.

0:06:57.376,0:06:58.966
Here I can see that I have a layer.

0:06:58.966,0:07:01.826
I'm going to select the layer and[br]the layer properties are shown here

0:07:01.826,0:07:02.886
in the properties panel.

0:07:03.316,0:07:06.916
Clicking the material tab allows[br]me to view the material inputs.

0:07:07.356,0:07:09.116
This layer is called a fill layer.

0:07:09.466,0:07:13.136
You cannot paint on a fill layer, but[br]you can fill the contents of the layer

0:07:13.136,0:07:15.826
with different information[br]like color or roughness.

0:07:16.426,0:07:18.436
In my case I want to change the color value.

0:07:19.136,0:07:23.306
Here you can see that I have a color scheme[br]image that I've created using Adobe Color.

0:07:24.256,0:07:27.566
To set my color I'm just going to sample[br]the values here from my color theme.

0:07:27.606,0:07:30.176
So I'm going to move this[br]over to my other monitor.

0:07:30.746,0:07:34.456
I will come over with the base plastic[br]layer selected to the base color

0:07:34.596,0:07:36.236
and I will click the color swatch.

0:07:36.716,0:07:39.816
Here I can choose a color or[br]I can use the sample tool.

0:07:40.216,0:07:41.506
I'm going to left click and drag.

0:07:41.666,0:07:45.256
As I drag, the sample is[br]being chosen and I'm going

0:07:45.256,0:07:48.306
to sample the yellow value from my color theme.

0:07:48.786,0:07:53.726
And with that in place, I've now added[br]the materials to the base of the skate

0:07:53.726,0:07:56.796
and I've changed the color for[br]the wheels, bushings, and stopper.

0:07:57.166,0:07:59.286
Now let's take a look at texturing the boot.

0:07:59.716,0:08:04.116
Again, in the assets under the smart[br]materials I am going to do a search for leather

0:08:04.716,0:08:08.016
and I'm going to use this option[br]called leather calf grain.

0:08:08.456,0:08:12.076
I'm going to left click and drag[br]and drop this material to the boot.

0:08:12.556,0:08:16.476
Here you can see that the upper[br]texture set was automatically selected

0:08:16.696,0:08:19.736
and the smart material is[br]added to that layer stack.

0:08:20.086,0:08:23.276
Remember, each texture set has[br]its own dedicated layer stack.

0:08:23.516,0:08:25.066
So now I'm going to make some changes.

0:08:25.066,0:08:29.446
Let's expand the group and here I'm[br]going to take a look at this base layer

0:08:29.446,0:08:30.926
and I'm going to change the base color.

0:08:31.216,0:08:35.226
Going back to my color theme, I'm[br]going to select this light blue value.

0:08:35.736,0:08:38.036
So I'll move this back to my second monitor.

0:08:38.306,0:08:44.236
I'm going to select here the color, use my[br]sample tool, and select that light blue value.

0:08:44.766,0:08:47.406
Now this smart material also has a dirt layer

0:08:47.406,0:08:50.106
and I'd like to change the color[br]for this dirt layer as well.

0:08:50.376,0:08:51.506
So I'll select the layer.

0:08:52.046,0:08:53.856
I will select the base color.

0:08:54.296,0:08:57.376
And this time, I'm just going to[br]grab my sample tool and I'm going

0:08:57.376,0:08:59.826
to select the preview icon for my base layer.

0:09:00.536,0:09:01.936
One last change I'd like to make.

0:09:02.026,0:09:06.026
I'm going to come over to my base layer[br]and here I'm going to adjust the roughness.

0:09:06.326,0:09:11.206
I'm going to move the slider towards the left[br]which makes the surface a bit more smooth,

0:09:11.746,0:09:14.146
which gives us a brighter[br]highlight in the reflection.

0:09:14.416,0:09:17.306
Now I would like to texture[br]this strap here in the back.

0:09:17.726,0:09:19.996
I can duplicate layers here in my layer stack.

0:09:20.136,0:09:23.626
So with the layer selected, if I just right[br]click you'll see here we have an option

0:09:23.626,0:09:24.886
for duplicate layers.

0:09:24.886,0:09:26.326
So I'm going to use this option.

0:09:27.516,0:09:32.356
Here I'll expand the group and then I'm going[br]to come over to that original base layer.

0:09:32.356,0:09:36.926
And then on my color theme, I'm going[br]to sample the bright yellow color value.

0:09:41.306,0:09:43.976
Just as I did before, I need to[br]change the color for the dirt.

0:09:48.106,0:09:52.886
And now I'm going to mask the material by[br]entering the geometry mask, Control left click

0:09:52.886,0:09:56.346
and drag to deselect all of the[br]parts, and then select the strap.

0:09:56.796,0:10:02.446
Now exit the mask mode and here you can see that[br]we have applied a different color of the leather

0:10:02.446,0:10:04.436
to the strap versus the actual boot.

0:10:06.186,0:10:08.846
So I have a few more materials[br]that I need to add to this skate.

0:10:09.326,0:10:13.606
I'm going to jump over to the substance[br]3D asset site and grab some materials.

0:10:13.706,0:10:15.516
First I'm going to search for rope.

0:10:15.936,0:10:17.496
This climbing rope will work well.

0:10:17.736,0:10:20.636
I will download the file and it[br]will be available in the content.

0:10:21.026,0:10:23.456
I'm also going to take a[br]look at a cotton material.

0:10:26.866,0:10:29.256
And lastly I will grab a suede material.

0:10:31.556,0:10:34.686
All three of these materials will be[br]available in the content directory.

0:10:36.786,0:10:41.556
So to import the files, I'm going to come over[br]here to file and choose important resources

0:10:41.886,0:10:43.786
and then click the add resources button.

0:10:44.346,0:10:48.596
In the content folder, we are going to[br]grab our materials, the suede material,

0:10:48.816,0:10:50.666
the cotton material, and the climbing rope.

0:10:51.066,0:10:54.746
With all three selected, I'll click[br]open and here you can see that I need

0:10:54.746,0:10:56.406
to set a tag for these materials.

0:10:56.876,0:10:59.686
All three of these materials[br]are based materials so I'm going

0:10:59.686,0:11:02.536
to select base material for each resource.

0:11:03.506,0:11:05.146
Now I need to select an import option.

0:11:05.476,0:11:09.146
In the dropdown you can see that I[br]have my project or I have a library.

0:11:09.506,0:11:12.876
The difference is that if I import[br]to my library, these materials

0:11:12.876,0:11:15.846
or resources will be available[br]for any new project I create.

0:11:15.846,0:11:21.026
If I choose project, these resources are[br]only available in that particular project.

0:11:21.346,0:11:24.236
That's the option I'm going to choose[br]in this case and then click import.

0:11:25.626,0:11:29.926
Here you can see that the asset import tag[br]is set and here are the three materials.

0:11:30.196,0:11:33.496
Because I set these materials as a[br]base material, I can always browse

0:11:33.496,0:11:35.956
to find them by using the base material tag.

0:11:36.196,0:11:37.436
Here you can see the climbing rope.

0:11:37.886,0:11:39.156
Let's go ahead and use this one.

0:11:39.156,0:11:42.576
I'm going to left click and just drag[br]and drop it right here onto the laces.

0:11:42.676,0:11:46.156
I'm going to come over here to the[br]fill properties and then set a scale.

0:11:46.236,0:11:48.366
I'll set this to a repeat value of 4.

0:11:49.756,0:11:54.716
Now, as I scroll down here to the material[br]properties, I just need to set my color values.

0:11:54.866,0:11:57.976
And you probably guessed it, I'm just going[br]to sample these values from my color theme.

0:12:05.136,0:12:07.206
And that will take care of the laces.

0:12:07.206,0:12:10.516
Next let's take a look at[br]the inside of the boot.

0:12:10.896,0:12:13.286
So again I have my material selected.

0:12:13.286,0:12:17.586
I'm just going to do a search for cotton[br]and here is that cotton technical fabric.

0:12:17.586,0:12:20.306
Left click, drag and drop here to the boot.

0:12:20.956,0:12:24.866
I now need to mask this material[br]so I'll jump into my material mask.

0:12:25.216,0:12:29.376
Control left click to deselect everything[br]and then left click the inside the boot.

0:12:29.376,0:12:34.486
Now I will jump outside of the mask, and with[br]the layer selected I'm going to set the color,

0:12:34.536,0:12:37.036
once again choosing or sampling from my theme.

0:12:39.566,0:12:44.906
So here I can see that it's my mask for[br]this back strap is no longer working.

0:12:44.996,0:12:49.176
And I can see here that in the[br]geometry mask it's telling me a zero

0:12:49.176,0:12:50.636
or all items are excluded.

0:12:50.906,0:12:54.596
So no problem, I can just jump back into[br]here and then select here the strap.

0:12:54.966,0:12:57.996
Now I'll jump back out of the[br]mask mode and we're good to go.

0:12:58.596,0:13:03.246
Next, I will look for the suede material[br]that I downloaded from Substance 3D assets.

0:13:04.246,0:13:07.606
And I'm going to left click and[br]drag and drop that here to the boot.

0:13:08.406,0:13:11.016
I'm going to select the properties for the fill.

0:13:11.266,0:13:15.296
I'm going to set a scale once again, maybe[br]a value of three will be pretty good.

0:13:16.096,0:13:20.906
Then I'm going to enter my mask mode,[br]Control left click and drag to deselect,

0:13:20.906,0:13:23.556
and then single click on this mesh part.

0:13:24.386,0:13:25.926
Jump out of the mask mode.

0:13:25.926,0:13:29.566
And now I'm just simply going[br]to set my material color.

0:13:29.566,0:13:31.146
I'm going to set it to that bright yellow.

0:13:31.506,0:13:34.796
So here in the material properties[br]I have a color option.

0:13:35.066,0:13:37.366
I am just simply going to[br]sample this from my color theme.

0:13:40.586,0:13:46.396
So now you can see that we have applied base[br]materials using smart materials and materials

0:13:46.396,0:13:51.146
that we downloaded from Substance 3D[br]assets to quickly texture the entire skate.

0:13:51.696,0:13:53.326
However it looks like I forgot

0:13:53.326,0:13:56.576
to add a different material[br]here for the sole of the boot.

0:13:56.736,0:13:57.466
Well no problem.

0:13:57.466,0:13:58.956
We can do that really quickly.

0:13:58.956,0:14:02.906
Let's jump over to our assets and I'm going[br]to do a search here in my smart materials.

0:14:02.906,0:14:05.696
And I'm going to do a search for plastic.

0:14:06.446,0:14:10.216
And I think I want a more reflective[br]material, so I'll start to type in glossy

0:14:10.216,0:14:13.496
and here we have this plastic glossy scuffed.

0:14:13.496,0:14:15.936
So let's left click and drag[br]and drop this here to the boot.

0:14:16.446,0:14:17.756
This is going to work pretty well.

0:14:18.006,0:14:21.296
So I'm now going to jump into[br]the mask mode, Control left click

0:14:21.296,0:14:23.476
and drag to deselect all of the parts.

0:14:23.786,0:14:24.806
Select the sole.

0:14:25.266,0:14:26.396
Jump out of the mask.

0:14:26.396,0:14:28.706
Now I will jump into the layer group.

0:14:29.206,0:14:32.006
Here on the plastic layer[br]I can just set the color.

0:14:32.346,0:14:36.276
Going to grab my base color and I'm just going[br]to sample the dark blue from my color theme.

0:14:37.296,0:14:39.006
That will close out this first video.

0:14:39.176,0:14:43.126
We covered the basic workflow of[br]applying and masking materials as well

0:14:43.126,0:14:46.126
as importing materials from Substance 3D assets.

0:14:46.626,0:14:49.676
Take some time to play with different[br]material combinations for your skate.

0:14:49.786,0:14:52.576
Just make sure it has plenty of 80s awesomeness.

0:14:52.756,0:14:54.916
