Weightpainting

[Anonymous No.783480]

Any good guides for weight painting in blender? My mesh shows a lot of stretch marks when i move my bones.

And here's the weight paint.

[Anonymous No.783486]

your weight map looks like isle in ocean of course it would deform improperly
smooth it where stretching occurs

When you put it that way, his rigging looks like art.

first block the weights of all your model with 1/0 values, then smooth inbetween
never have a vertex weight distributed on more than 2-3 bones, except for specific needs
always add weight, never remove, or it will distribute to random bones

lets see the topology

>Shit topology
>Way too high poly

still working on the weight paint, will show if i get an acceptable result.
>>784108
here's the topology i know it doesn't look great, i decimated it too reduce polygons, i should have probably done that after i was done rigging.
>>784195
i am doing it right now.

No seriously, scrap whatever the fuck you are doing now and go back to the basics. How do you expect to weight paint something that has no proper topology? If you can't answer this question with a simple "yeah that was pretty retarded of me", you clearly aren't ready for weight painting/rigging.

>>784457
i still saved a copy of the model before i decimated it. It contains too many polys so is there a way i can reduce them without getting a screwed up topology?

[Anonymous No.784463]

>>784459
Yes, it's called retopology. Learn to do it.

this will still be easier to skin than >>784435

[Anonymous No.784469]

>>784465
Yes but i need lower polys too export it into a game engine.
>>784463
gonna focus on that for now.

Can you show the full model? curious

why on earth would you even be trying to do anything with this model? what fault in your brain made you look at this and go "looks good, time to rig"? i'm not even trying to be mean i just legitimately don't know how to explain shit like this without speculating about neurological disorders. it's not about people's early attempts sucking, which of course they will, it's about how they can't even judge their own results and proceed to spend 500 hours adding intricate pore detail or rigging or cloth sims to something that can never look anything but revolting because of mistakes made right at the start. do you not see that it's revolting or do you not care?

No.

You need to learn how topology effects models, and you need to learn how to do retopology. Don't use decimate on anything you want to be rigged, neither before or after rigging. It will just fuck up how your model deforms.

If you're lazy and you want fast results, though, you could reduce the number of subdivisions in your original (the one that's all quads instead of triangles) and while it won't be perfect, it will be light years better than that total fucking unworkable mess you've currently got.

...Honestly, though...

>>784546
I really wouldn't bother. You're going to need to learn how to model something other than tits and ass, because the majority of this model is absolutely awful.

It's like you haven't looked at any kind of reference at all.

what you want is to have the lowest polygon model possible with just enough edge loops for rigging and general curvature.
aim for something like the first model or something in between the first and second.
fine detail and high subdivision is something that should be generated at render time.
