You are really talented at teaching! I would love to see a basic stairs animation tutorial where it forms through the rotation of each step.

Quick and to the point. I work with game engines, and I've switched to Blender as my main modeling software - but I never really use it for materials or textures since those are engine specific. I did need to have a model that had two separate material IDs and I appreciated you covering it without having to scan through a 30 minute video.

I love the way you explained the Material Preview button, it use to be confusing until you simplified it. Can you help explain the other buttons close to the Material Preview? Many thanks

Hi Lee. I'm very much new to the animation world. Just when I was wondering is it possible to create vector animated film on after effects, I stumbled upon your

Thanks for a great video Lee. Is it possible to create a few materials for an object and then swap between them to say compare them. I created a cube and then added 2 materials. Only the first material I created is displayed on the object. I understand that once an Object material has been assigned to an object then the usual approach is to assign colours to different parts of the mesh in Edit mode. (I am not sure if this is the correct terminology) the But is it possible to change the "Object material" ?

[herrremo]

how can we avoide the sharp line in the edge of the two materials, is there a way to soften it? thanks

[henriquemagno]

when im exporting my mesh with gltf2.0 its just return the mesh as the white default color. Does anyone know what to do?

[EEKHOLM]

Don't have the material view button :(

[gloodgy]

i selected the object i want to make the material for, i made the material, and it wont change the object at all. i followed every step exactly. anyone know whats going on?
