00:00Welcome, welcome to M&P Cubes. Learn, Blender, Cube, Easy. Now, what's this all about? It's all about learning how to map, texture, anime, render and so forth.
00:17Everything you want to learn, how to model, I'll show you. So I'll go over here. I want to show you an object, I want to go over here and I'll show you how to make it, just so you want to send it. Over here. Over there.
00:29Now, normally I'd import a Glyph folder, I don't have one. I do have a template, I want to go over here. I know you haven't got a template, don't worry about it, I want to show you.
00:39I want to go open, download, go in here, you say Blender, you say Learn Quick, Blanky, Animation. So this is a mattress, and this is a blanket.
00:54I'm thinking, don't worry, don't worry, the colour does not matter. You click the colour, and we can just click on the actual sheet itself.
01:04Now we can just go, delete that. You can open a mattress, open this, click on this, right click on it, and delete that.
01:11So it looks like that. It's a bit standard.
01:15First of all, how do you make something that looks like that, and how do you make something that looks like that?
01:21Well, this is your template, so what I'm going to show you is this.
01:26So, as I said, I want to show you exactly how to do it, so you end up with something that looks kind of like that.
01:33Maybe even better than that. So, depending on how you want to do it.
01:38Okay, so, what I want to do, right click here, all I want to do is make a file, I want to right click and make a file.
01:45I want to grab these two, left click hold, drag it, and drag those in there.
01:49That's all I want to do, and I can just hide it, swap and hide it.
01:52Okay, just not going to hide it from you, because I want to.
01:56Okay, go here. First of all, you start off Blender with a Blender Cube.
02:01Right? Great. Okay, turn to the side.
02:05Now, just, we can turn the snapping tool on, snap it up to the level.
02:11First of all, we want to squash it.
02:14From here, grab the top of it, and stretch it.
02:18Make it roughly about two squares wide.
02:21There about.
02:23Okay, grab this, grab this, drag it down.
02:26Okay, now, that's not really much of a mattress.
02:29It doesn't look like a mattress, but it's too wide.
02:32In your top mode, you go here.
02:35And you need to squash it.
02:37Make it a bit skinnier.
02:38Depending on the size of your character, ideally, you can bring your character in.
02:43Now, I'm going to tell you, do it roughly about, about as wide as that.
02:47So, it's a MBQ long, doesn't really matter.
02:51As I say, for my character, that's more than big enough for a bit.
02:55And, obviously, wide enough, yeah, it's plenty wide enough for a bit.
02:59So, there you go again, it's a bit chunky. Look at it.
03:01It's still too chunky.
03:03But, ideally, you'll make it a bit skinnier than that.
03:06Maybe one square.
03:07It's up to you.
03:08It's entirely your preference.
03:10Go here.
03:11Okay.
03:12Squat it.
03:13And if you want to get into one square.
03:14Check off here.
03:15If you can't get it, undo that.
03:18So, you into one square.
03:20So, if you zoom in, and you think, okay, that's not quite there.
03:24When you press this.
03:25I'm going to tweak it just a little bit.
03:28Now, I'm going to tell you, make it look nice and friendly.
03:31Go on, go to edit.
03:32Go here.
03:33Select the whole entire model.
03:35Now, if you can pull it over slightly and zoom in a little bit.
03:39little bit you see the little squares you want to keep an eye on that part over there and watch the
03:45squares here press this bevel okay just bevel it just hold it drag it sometimes you gotta drag it
03:53sometimes you gotta push it and now if it does that it's totally wrong see like that if i move
04:01that watch see that it's a total mess what's going on with that well i'll show you what's going on
04:10as i said i want to show you exactly how to do it you have to go to standard mode click it come over
04:15to blender press the spanner that's this you say well i don't know how to use that i want to show
04:21you how to use it okay here now what you want to do is you go down to the very very very bottom
04:27and you see weld press weld okay go here and all of it press that yeah okay go back into edit mode
04:36now if you click on this you can put it back on the side view if you want to like this so you can use
04:42a little square i'll pull it back over hold it drag it see little squares i use little squares in
04:49reference that's what i do so what i do i click this now you see here i can't see it okay where is it
04:58blend that okay so we can't see what's going on okay let me work this out so it's okay go back over
05:06here come back out of this mode it's in the center so it's perfect okay now of course the little cursor
05:12thing is over here okay i want to tell you right click just go here snap the cursor to the origin so
05:23it goes there so it behaves itself now of course again you go back to side mode if you want to like
05:29this okay and then you can zoom into it ideally i want to tell you if you go from it if you go this way
05:36it's going to be a whole lot easier for you because it's not that wide and you can zoom in and come
05:41further that's what i want to tell you here go back into edit mode you go to extrude we should be able
05:49to see the extrude on the thing we can't see our extrude now sometimes my blender does that and you might
05:58think well how do you fix it well this is how i fix it you press this i go here now before
06:05you export it always go here go here apply or transforms okay move that back into the center
06:14press this go here set it to geometry now just before exporting i want to go back in here just
06:21to check it press this and you see when you press that you should have a dot little bit of there you
06:27can't see it okay now of course as i say when i do my videos sometimes they work great and sometimes yeah
06:33blend the message around so what you do you click on the click on your mattress go here export i'm
06:40going to tell you to export it as an obj to start with you can export it whatever you want i want to
06:45say obj go here because everybody uses obj call this i want to call it empty and not for any particular
06:55reason and you can tick you can tick all of these if you want to you can do that one that one you don't
07:01need that this one is um i forgot what it's called anyway you don't need it press this press this this and
07:11this okay so you can leave that um it's called physical base render that's what that is yeah you don't
07:21need it so anyway just just ignore it you want to take all of them yeah just go here okay export it go
07:28here delete that because it's complete mess okay here import it click on the obj bar now you see this
07:38file here that comes with it some people know what it is some people don't what it is it holds the
07:44color of the model and it also holds your copyright of your model just so you know that so go here
07:54now this here is how you split it we can't split it because it's only one object so you can just
08:01basically click that open bring it in now you see how it's here press this set it back to the actual
08:08geometry okay now go here edit now it looks like that you can go here select all of it you see you get
08:17a dot to the century that's what we that's what we want okay turn around to the side zoom in i said i
08:24try to do this so you can see the little squares okay i apologize for the messing around but that's
08:29plenty for you okay now see this little thing here just grab it and pull it now you see now you see how
08:35it's behaving itself pull it roughly about you see like there just pull it around the square like
08:42that like two little squares once where there once where there you've got space there don't do nothing
08:48just press this if you make a mistake go back up here let's undo and do it again okay you see this one here
08:55they have segments now everybody likes you to do round around two you can do three maximum
09:05but honestly i wouldn't recommend three and freeze the maximum and two is the minimum so you can have
09:12maximum or minimum so it's up to you i'll say don't go any more than that you don't need to do any more
09:19than that okay i'll say if you want to go free go free doesn't matter okay click click off it and look
09:26your mattress and the whole mattress is beveled um beautiful of course it doesn't look like a
09:33mattress but it does it looks like one of the ones that you see in a police station and realistically if
09:40you look at it from this point of view i think yeah well i wouldn't know i've never been in the
09:44position yeah well luckily i have um we click and go smooth and now it's also smooth you think you
09:53quite agree but it's quite not quite there yet clicking again go back here go any go back up
10:00here select all of it nobody showed you this i'm going to show you this okay kick off that okay go here
10:06here mesh normals if your faces are back to normal so if you get a message from blender if you upload
10:15models to blender and they tell you your normals are back to front what are they actually telling you
10:21they're telling you these are your normals they're telling you to flip it over because it's inside out
10:28it's back to front it's upside down it's up to you okay now this model is perfect just leave it come
10:35down here if you model in blender after you finish your model always do this go here go to reset and
10:45reset all the faces now why would you do that because you would do that because it makes all the faces
10:51properly and correct and it makes the shadows look better that's what it does
10:57as you can see like that now what we're going to do here if we go into live mode just because we want
11:03to just before we make a sheet okay the sheets are really really easy okay go here now what you want
11:10to do is go down to texture materials go here make a new material i'm going to show you how to basically
11:18paint it if you want to paint it go here press here press this pick any color of the rainbow i'll press this
11:25and i'm going to have blender blue now why would i have blender blue yeah because the mattress is
11:32inside police cell directly blue like that yeah just in case you don't know that so there yeah
11:39and actually they are pretty comfortable to be honest with you yeah anyway just a little bit of
11:44information for you okay so go here any now of course you can just read like that now if you want
11:52if you're planning on rolling the mattress up if you want to do that um before you bevel it and add some
11:59lines in it well anyway this video is actually showing you how to animate a sheet okay so go here so
12:07we set up our level plane back here we can export it back out obj click the obj delete it now because
12:17you've got all these ticked especially this one that's the color saving now next time we bring this
12:24in i'll show you delete it bring it back in if you bring it in now it's actually blue there you go that's what
12:34color it is in reality okay in the game world it's going to look like that okay so as i said this is our
12:41little sheet this is our mattress i think just so you can tell the difference between the mattress
12:46and the sheet go here make a new plane now what you want to do you just kind of scale the plane
12:54a little bit bigger than the actual thing itself you want to make it a bit shorter because yeah you've got
13:01a pillow up here you've got your feet sticking out at the end of it so as i said it'll talk to you
13:07now when you do this now you see how i moved it you can't move it right go here delete it
13:14i think this is going to be your very first sheet okay go here now this sheet will work on everything
13:21so i'm going to tell you keep it as a template go here it's going to ask you here
13:26how big do you want it okay so go to scale and scale this just just approximately to if you want
13:35your blanket to hang down the side of the bed then you need to make it a bit wider than that because
13:41don't forget when the when you put a body inside here it's going to wrap itself around the body
13:48and then go down the bed and then go down the side of it so as i say you want to kind of scale it
13:53really however you want so i'll say so it depends on what object is in the bed that's what it depends
14:00on so i'll say relatively well we can make up a universal sheet if we want to so we can do this
14:07and we can kind of just stretch it a little bit like this so you give yourself a little bit of overhang
14:13like that and then kind of scale it down a bit and then kind of move to the end of the bed we've got
14:20room for the pillar so you can pull it up there just so it covers the pillar a little bit not too much
14:27just a little bit so our pillars will work here we're not going to make a pillar or if we was going to
14:33make a pillar okay that's the sheet now to make it into an actual sheet so it works go to edit
14:43go to cut tool put one cut on it see here just type 32 now everyone tell you oh type 64 yeah you
14:56can type 64 if you've got a really good computer but if you've got like a standard machine like a word
15:02processor yeah just do 32 32 works great i'll show you exactly how it works okay go 32 click off it
15:10and now it does 32 cuts this way now go here anywhere on there just press that yes yep see it's one change
15:21that 32 press enter and now you can see it's all chopped up into nice lovely little squares now this is not
15:31only a sheet this could be a curtain it could be clothing it could be absolutely anything you want
15:38okay you can close that okay now you give yourself a little pat on the back because you've done
15:44some absolutely fantastically great work okay now you can click on the sheet
15:50so if you want to call it sheet
15:55call it sheet okay click on it make a new picture change it get this press this and i'm going to have
16:02blender black you can't see it because you have to go to live mode to see it okay click on the sheet just
16:09so we can see here apply transforms go here we're almost ready to animate go here i want to export it
16:20as an obj and we're going to go here and we're going to call it sheet okay leave it just export it click on it and then just delete it
16:30i'll tell you to do that just so you can bring it back in so it looks normal press that so it looks normal
16:37press this and go import sheet the obj don't delete that one this one is the color of it
16:44here bring it in and there we got a nice blue mattress with a nice black sheet on it i think it's great
16:51press this now what object are you going to put in the bed i think oh can we have a blender cue well we can
16:59have a blender cue if you want one so if you want to take a blender cue we can use a blender cue of course
17:06you want to scale it down to add the size of whatever's in the bed it could be a person it could
17:12be a cat a dog a crocodile a camel if you got one stretch it nice and long and just kind of scale it
17:22around to just get it how you want it basically that's what i'm telling you okay now you can bring it
17:27up the bed down the bed doesn't matter so if you kind of tilt it like this and you kind of scale it
17:33down a little bit scale it in a little bit you can kind of make it a bit like a kind of like a human
17:41kind of sheet if we want to of course we can sit there so a human is probably about four little squares
17:47there about so you look at anything oh that's my human character perfect okay now what we want to do
18:01of course she's a little bit kind of short so we need to stretch her stretch him doesn't matter
18:08okay like that now what we want to do is take the blanket dish now at this point now you'll go here and
18:16you'll save your template okay this is your main template so don't copy over it save the first one
18:25and then a new one okay okay now click on the on the blanket here i'm just going to standard objects
18:35here move this above the character really yep move it above it because we want it to wrap it
18:44yourself around the character obviously you you want to move it to really where you want it don't
18:50forget the head is going to be here so you don't want to cover the face up or if you want to cover
18:55the face up if you want to cover the face up make it longer you want to make it longer just go here
19:01and scale it as i said do it before you animate it okay so let's say now we want it like that
19:09and what we want to do is press the mattress first okay leave that where it is you can click on that
19:17and go here apply transforms so it stays there okay press that now you want to go down here you want a
19:25rigid body set this to passive now what's the difference between passive and active active if it's something
19:35just moving around the screen that's active if you want to passive it means you'll stay on the floor
19:41but it won't fall through the floor so it stays exactly basically where wherever you put it that's
19:47where it stays okay click the body the person the box the cat the dog the camel the crocodile click on it
19:56turn on collision don't nothing else just do that okay press this click this one turn on collision
20:05and make it cloth okay like that now all we have to do is hit play and we got a nice piece of cloth
20:16of course what it's going to do is slide off the body because yeah it's because it's too big go here look
20:25it just drops off and i think it kind of green now you can bring it back in slow motion like this
20:32so as i said if it was a curtain if it's a cloth it could be absolutely anything yeah as a if you
20:39can't have got a really nice ship so you see you know this you can drop it now if you watch here you
20:46see how it's going through the blue part i'm thinking now don't think so trick this see here kick it
20:54when you take it you put an x on it i don't know why it does that and it should be a tick on it
21:00it was actually playing again oh
21:05now it works so now if your character's in bed whatever you there yeah that's that's that's the
21:12blankie for it don't forget it's going to be in bed it's going to it's not going to be like that
21:17so what however you make your bed if you've got legs on it and arms on it and things like that
21:22the arms you know posts delicos when you drop the mattress on it it's going to wrap itself around the
21:27post around yeah whatever's there it's going to wrap it up around it and if you're happy with your
21:34masterpiece you can right click on it you can go smooth get on this and then you've got a nice smooth
21:42blanket could be a piece of leather if you want to it so imagine now you're making a setting imagine
21:48you're doing that and you can basically make the design for a setting then you can basically throw
21:55this on it get the shape of the setting and then you can actually delete the inside you can delete that
22:04i'll show you you can delete that and we can still keep the shape of the setting
22:10or if it was a body a cat a dog closer to you if you want to keep the shape of that right click
22:18over here and convert it to a mesh and you'll stay like that
22:24okay and it's just as easy as that now i'm going to show you something i'm going to go back to the
22:29first beginning so it looks like this pretty great now can we alter and change it yeah of course we can go
22:38here we can add a ball and we're going to scale the ball down
22:46not like that you're just going to click on it and kind of scale it
22:50and then call it click on the side view move it out move it out of there just to get out there somewhere
22:57now watch what happens when we put a ball in there
22:59oh it didn't work no but it wrapped this up around the bed oh oh yeah so now we've got a nice perfectly
23:10smooth blanket for the bed because somebody decided to make the bed this morning and if you don't want
23:16this to hang down there you can go here of course i want that i'm not on that if i go here click on this
23:23as if you convert it to a mesh so we go here convert to mesh here you can edit now if you edit the mesh
23:35while it's in animation mode it does that okay you can't edit the object okay so where has it gone don't
23:42worry about that just go back and you come back okay as i say just ignore that okay as i say so we
23:49want it to wrap around the ball so click the ball and turn on collagen drop it and now it's wrapped
23:57itself all inside the ball thank you oh can't agree click to hide the sphere and now we've got a big pile
24:06of something on the floor now what could that be there that could be absolutely amazing now you
24:14you could actually export that if you wanted to what can i use that for that could be a flame in a
24:20well of course you need to change the color of it could be a flame in a well it could be something
24:28inside the wall something under the bed that's decided to creep out from underneath it
24:36and then you realize oh it's only a blanket oh yeah as i said it kind of does this drops down
24:45sneaks underneath the bed what is it yeah it could be anything you want it to be of course you know
24:51play it's going to go right to the end of the video and you're going to end up with that as i said
24:57it's up to you as i said you can use as a jump scare underneath the bed so you can have it like this look
25:02so it just decides to wobble like this as it is entirely up to you how you want to do it
25:10okay as they do now you don't want to go inside the ball you want to be out of the ball
25:15so just drop it down a bit more okay go here just leave it on leave it on that i want to go here
25:22rid your body scroll down make it passive make this one rid your body make it passive drop it
25:30go back inside it i think yeah you shouldn't go it shouldn't be going back inside it you should
25:37land on top of it so what we're going to do we're going to go back so i want to get rid of the ball for
25:43a moment let's get rid of that because he doesn't like it okay maybe because it's too close just go
25:49here make a cylinder one last time and that's it finished okay go here scale it as a you can have
25:59this however you want turn it to the side go here rotate it again you can scale it as big and as tall as you want
26:13as i don't want to watch inside it you can just basically drop it now you see it go back inside it
26:17now you shouldn't be going and selling to cylinder it should be wrapping itself around it so yeah press
26:23turn on collision let's try again do you see all that look so if we've got a cylinder in the bed
26:34when you drop it down it's going to cover it like a big lump of plastic i'll say perfect and now if you
26:42want to keep that i'll show you now as i say save your template just in case you want to change
26:48and you think about the cloth okay go here convert convert the mesh okay now what we can do we can
26:56take the cylinder and you will keep the shape of the cylinder put the right nose cylinder
27:03and so that's how you can put something underneath a piece of clothing and inside inside the cupboard
27:13anyway pretend there's something there but really there's nothing there and it's just an empty space
27:21and that's it so you can go back here and you don't do that i'll say this is how you want it so as i
27:26right click on that just go to convert convert that's the mesh and now as you can see everything's turned
27:33off look there's no animation on that on that now so now you can get to keep that and you can move it
27:39wherever you want it and you'll stay like that of course if you want to change the shape a little bit more
27:46then of course you can bring it back up if you want to and you can make something new underneath there
27:56i'm only going to do this and that's it okay so i want to make a some kind of pyramid lucky thing
28:02whatever you call that click this here somewhere
28:10bring it over here bring it over here yeah don't delete it bring it out the floor
28:19so kind of hard tilting just put it wherever you want it okay now all this thing
28:26here apply transforms bridge your body go here make your passive okay turn on turn on collision
28:38click on this now because it's only a sheet it doesn't know that because it's a brand new item
28:45according to that turn it into collision turn on cloth and drop it
28:51now if you look at it it's sitting on top of the spiky thing now of course if you allow the animation
28:59to play or show you it will end up going i don't know wherever it goes see it kind of works its way
29:06off of the table because we haven't set the frictions or nothing like that or the mass anything like that
29:14so this is debate about the bare basics of how to make a piece of cloth like this look so as i said
29:21if you've got a character if you've got a character i'm going to show you this and then
29:27that is it that's all i'm going to show you okay now ignore the shape of the cloth just just ignore
29:34everything just just delete that we can delete them we can delete the mattress you don't need that
29:40okay we can go here now you'll see loads of people do this okay but um yeah no one kind of show you
29:47how to do it if you make a self-sphere and scale it down just just just a little bit make it about
29:56the same size as like a human head so about four squares now if you kind of work out the rough height
30:05of the character which is about uh let's say right there move this and move it above the item
30:14click on this you don't have to smooth it if you want to smooth it you can but then you don't have to
30:19if you want to smooth the item right click and go smooth you don't need to smooth it and go here
30:26set it passive so it stays where it is okay when you're on it turn on collision click this
30:33it's already it's already got collision and it's already on cloth watch what happens now
30:42now we've got a ghost in the level now this could be absolutely anything it could be a statue it could
30:48be absolutely anything now if you want to keep the shape of that it's a bit it's a bit part of bad
30:54looking so let's go back so as i say you see the shape of it the shape doesn't matter don't want
31:00you have to go by frame find out where your ball is see your balls there so grab this and set it to
31:06the center of the geometry and put that in the middle of the ball okay now dropping it now it looks like
31:14that just you just allow it to do that just let it play until it settles down like that so it settles down
31:23properly okay i'll say you can find anything underneath that don't worry about that right
31:27you're gonna convert to mesh back obviously now there's a dimension on it we can get rid of the ball
31:37now we got this now we got a mesh with nothing you told it i think you know it could be a cloak for
31:44your character it could be anything really ideally so as i say you see the part here you could take it off and
31:51use as a cloak for your own character now we can go over to sculpt tool look at our big spooky ghost
32:01now of course if you go over here you you can turn off the color you can go here turn the color off
32:06if you don't want the color on it leave the color on it i love the color on it so you can go over here
32:11take the sculpting tool and sculpting so this is how you do a little bit of sculpting on the model
32:18just to go on and get it the way you want it and then of course as i said as you're messing around
32:26with it i'll go here i'll turn that off i said as you're looking at it you can sculpt it exactly how
32:33you want it so you can go here i said you've got to play with the tools and then you can find the tools
32:38that actually work better for you if you're gonna sculpt in here i recommend that you just kind of
32:45just tap on the keyboard not the keyboard know your mouse just go to the edge that you want
32:54and just tap on it to just click it once and then you'll get a nice really nice shape of it
32:59and say it's up to you how you're going to do it i said you you you can do whatever you want you can
33:04add bits to it like this so bring it out if you zoom out a little bit you can see what you're doing
33:11you see like i'm adding ridges to it see like this look like a big crease then you go back to smooth
33:19and you can smooth that crease so you can keep the crease there as it it's entirely up to you what
33:25you want to do you can you can bring it right out like this that's it you can go absolutely crazy on it
33:34you really can look and bring it right out and then of course to make it look a bit better go back to
33:39smooth not flatter makes you a smoothie just pick it once and you'll smooth it back out for you
33:45as i say if you do properly you'll look better now the reason why it's looking kind of a bit squarey
33:50is because there's only 32 segments on that when i say segments i mean
33:56do you remember remember when we made the sheet and we done 32 that's that's how many squares are on
34:06here okay so we don't 32 so there's 64 squares on here but obviously if you want to change it to 64
34:15you can and it depends what you're making honestly really it does but if you want to make up a jump
34:22scape um don't forget if the world was really kind of dark kind of dingy and you've got kind of
34:30something like that walking around yeah do you really want to go and see what it is not really
34:37but um that's it it could be nothing it could be a sheet anyway that's all i want to show you so
34:45i really hope that these videos help you out and don't have nightmares about the sheet because it's
34:53only a sheet that's all it is okay as i said nothing inside it nothing okay as i say you can get rid of
34:59that go back to here import and you can import your sheet and that's exactly what you got just that
35:09as i say if you look at the sheet you see you see the squares now i'm going to tell you don't
35:18alter it if you're going to make if you're going to change it just go up here make it have a new one
35:23and then change it so as i say it's entirely cute stay thank you friendly i really hope you subscribe
