Mastering details in Blender - trim sheets tutorial

Let's build a system to manage details that works in every situation and that will allow us to easily swap them around with just one click, all of this while tweaking the amount of available geometry to either get infinite details or nice and crisp close-ups.

Learn how to use trim sheets effectively in your scenes!

All the decorations you see in this video (and more!) are included into my Classical Mouldings - Vol 1 pack, check it out at the link down below!

bro you re providing profetional tutorials , that's what the blender community needs to step up the crappy popular work we see all the time . thx

Tying the detail_amount variable to the "Camera Data Node - View Distance" - genius. I need to up my Blender game - thank you

I couldn't have started the project I'm currently working on without this great series you made about temples, this video is the cherry on top

7:15 You can ctrl-drag the material, the ID-map-colors will be shown while you drag-drop. That saves you the process of "adding a black mask + Color Selection + Pick Color" as it does that automatically for you.

One of the best tutorials concentrating on the essential things. Didn't know about the id map vertex color possibility. Thank you <3

[Dracke]

Really helpful. I like how you give an insight to your workflow instead of doing a step by step tutorial where one sees things we all know already for the hundreds time. You are doing it just perfectly!

You are a real gem to the blender community, i have been following you for a while, you deserve million subscribers

[leothiery]

Very precise and usefull, definitly deserve more visibility dude, your stuff is awesome !

[michaeljburt]

Oh man. This video is a gold mine of information. Thank you!

[Mranshumansinghr]

Wow! you are the master of Blender modelling. I have downloaded your videos and I watch them from time to time. Thank you for sharing this.

[harpoonlobotomy]

I'm quite new to Blender and I think I've just reached the point where I can understand this tutorial. Beautiful work, excellently explained. Thank you for sharing this.

[thebasemesh]

Fantastic tutorial, learnt a tonne in a short video. Thank you!

[PawOoo]

this is the top-tier tutorial, I love this. pls keep it up.

[jermesastudio]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. It has been very helpful for my commercial projects.

[trevorsoh]

This is brilliant! Wish blender had an automatic ‘fit pattern/array to other object size / shape’ but until then these steps will be super useful :)

[garvamatic]

mind blowing, thank you so much for so many smart steps

[stathiszoulakis]

hi this video is rly helpfull do you have a tutorial on how to sculpt the decorations?

[rbettsx]

Clear, detailed yet concise, to the point. Great stuff. Two things you might want to have a look at, for this one..

1: AOV outputs/passes, for making the workflow entirely inside Blender a bit slicker? I don't know whether you considered that option, when in other comments, you were suggesting that Blender was much trickier than Substance Painter.. (Although, agreed, it isn't purpose-built)

2: You might have your own reasons to reject Cycles Adaptive Subdivision, as opposed to rolling-your-own LOD drivers.. curious about that.. what those might be.

[jokkesimppelisata]

Awesome tutorial, thank you for sharing your knowledge!

[Nerthazul]

Best channel on ornamental arhitecture on YT for sure <3. However, there is 1 thing missing. Could you maybe make a dedicated video on how to make the tileable ornamental segments you use for this trimsheet (or similar). That would be the final piece of the puzze :)
