So the short answer is...sort of. I am currently producing a video about this very subject. I have figured out a way to use uv maps, face groups, and a layer to project a seamless mask onto an object of any shape and create real texture that can be sculpted. It sounds complicated, but it is quite easy to do. In the case of this video with a pattern of objects, I do not know how to wrap them smoothly following complicated shapes. It is possible to create a bump map or uv texture from your pattern if you wish. Stay tuned my new video will be out shortly.

@@Original-Werkswow, sounds awesome, looking to your new video, and thanks a lot for amazing tutorials 😊

I was using the default sphere in this case. You can always go into the multi-resolution tab and increase your topology if you like. Hope this answers your question.

Thank you! I have several more videos coming out soon.

Thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Glad you found it helpful! I have lots more videos in the works.

That is custom brush territory. If you have made them before, clone your clay brush and create an alpha with your shape. (Sounds like you already have one.) I would rename it something like clay roller. You can use the dot stroke style, but increase your stroke spacing to suit your pattern. While you are in there change your snap radius to about half of your texture size, this will allow you to start your new stroke of texture lined up perfectly with the last, look for the red dot at the end of your stroke and start from there. Pressure, adjust to maybe the full preset, this will keep your texture consistent. Hope this helps, easier to do a video on this, I just might tomorrow. Have fun sculpting!

You're welcome! Have fun sculpting.

Yes, it can be tough! I find the project tool really helps to clean up the edges, and it is faster than trim in some cases.

@Original-Werks yeah since watching this vid I've been messing with it and it's so much easier. Shared this vid with all my nomad sculpt buddies. Thank you!

You are very welcome. Thank you for sharing my video, that really helps me out!

That is completely your call. I didn't, simply because I like to warm my printer in an enclosure with a small space heater. I keep my resin in my house, this way it is already warm. It really depends on your situation and how you store your resin.

Wow, thank you! I really appreciate your kind comment, I do have several videos in the works coming out soon.

I would use the move tool probably, set to a large size and just bump the spiral into place.

I know the interface changes fairly regularly. I also have my panels in custom places, that may not help either. This video is quite old by Nomad Sculpt versions too. As for the dimensions, it is sort of in mm. The actual scale is not in any documentation, but if you import or export anything in mm, the scale matches. If you have any doubt, you can import a shape from Tinkercad or a set calibration cube from Thingiverse (20mm calibration cube for 3D printing would work) and compare size to your object scale.

As far as I know not yet, I hope that comes into being soon.

So, I just checked again. There is an easy way to do this now. Click on Face Group, click on Patch, and then all you need to do now is click on the color that you want to paint on for a face group. Super easy to switch colors at will now. Between the ability to swap colors as needed and using the relax tool, the groups are about unlimited now. Enjoy!

That is true. Nomad sculpt has so many ways to do the same thing. This program is constantly evolving as well, so some of my older videos can be outdated for techniques.

You're so welcome! This technique can really help to keep edges sharp. Have fun sculpting!

Yes, that is correct. When sculpting faces or any really detailed object this can really be useful.

Happy to hear my video helped. Enjoy, Nomad is a lot of fun to use!

I believe mine is the 20". I found that you do not need to heat the entire vat perimeter. The vat band will warm the metal and as you start to print the plate mixes the resin around pretty uniformly. The UV light also warms the resin a small amount as well. Hope this helps.

@@Original-Werks Thanks! I ended up going with a brew belt for now. If that doesn't prove to be enough i'll buy a small vatband

They both work very well with Nomad to make creating quicker and faster base mesh models. I also have another very good app that works extremely well for hard surface and complex curve modeling. Stay tuned. And thank you for the thoughts about sponsorship, that would be great!

At the bottom of your app there will be an icon that says SOLO. If it is not there go to the top menu bar and click on the three sliders for the interface. It is the one in between the gear and Nomad icon in the corner. Then click on INTERFACE, and you can add SOLO to the shortcuts bar. Hope this answers your question.

It was another option I considered. I chose the vat band since it had an adjustable power regulator included.

Yes it is possible, though not like some other apps. I will make this video next, thank you for pointing out that I had not made this one yet. I have a photo "brush" that I use just for this purpose, I thought I had made a dedicated video about it already. I think that I have covered its use in a different video. Stay tuned, I will get this out quickly!

@@Original-Werks thank you for replying! I made my own work around by creating a thin plane and using my reference as a texture 😉 but I'm looking forward to see your way nevertheless.

Yes, in the tube tool menu. Click on RADIUS until you have two peach colored indicators for the top and bottom radius. Then click and drag the peach handles to taper the coil. The only issue is that the entire coil will taper in diameter the whole length. You can offset this by adding more dots if you click the RADIUS to get three indicators, then you can add more handles to adjust the taper and radius. Hope this answers your question.

Thank You!

Unfortunately no, Pose Tool only has a feature to load poses, not files from another program that could then be posed

ThankYou!

Yes, it is time.

Glad it was helpful! Have fun with your project.

Yes, I did try out the free version of that app. I did like the better controls and better range of body types. I will probably go for the master subscription later so that I can download more body types. But I figured most subscribers to my channel might not be into nearly a $200 fee per year to pose figures. They also had some scathing reviews of their policies once they went to a subscription model taking away models and props that people had already paid for. So I really did not want to recommend them after reading about that.

Thank you for the comments, I certainly will turn the music down going forward.

Thanks for the video!

Agreed, great video, but music was a bit distracting. Will definitely look into this, thanks!

Check out the below video on tips to export files for printing. You may find that the file is much too large to import into Cura. I show you how to simplify your project without losing much detail. Hope this helps. studio.ua-cam.com/users/videopceSfk0dXSU/edit

So happy you enjoyed the video. Thank you so much for subscribing!

Thank you!

Same. I’m glad he’s back. 😊

Thank you, I had to take some time for other things for a while.

Thank you!

No problem, in time the mirror sheet will flatten out and you will not have to do that for long.

In this video I was using a matcap (material capture). It is great for displaying detail, but the color is lost switching back to a lit pbr (Physically Based Rendering) where you can use different paint and light colors. I will use this for the topic of my next video, this is a perfect subject for it. To get similar results as this you can use paint for the same effect. Go to the paintbrush icon and experiment with paint color, roughness, and a small amount of metalness. Tap the material ball and pick a dull plastic sphere, tap again until it says clone, scroll down you will see a cloned copy with a folder icon and plastic/ beside it. Pick that sphere (it will be there to use whenever you want a real clay/wax sphere color to use) and adjust the following. For more exact color type in #c82f19, Roughness 0.3966, Metalness 0.1196, this will get you in the neighborhood, adjust for your taste. I also went to the shading tab (sun icon) and over exposed about to 3.0 in the Venetian crossroads environment. This was a really long answer to your question, I hope it was not too confusing. Be on the lookout for my next video, I will have a few more tips as well!

You're welcome! Have Fun!

So happy you enjoyed it! Have fun with this one!

Welcome aboard! Thank you for the new Sub!

No, mine is made of aluminum and solid.

@@Original-Werks Mine is an alloy and hollow. I was thinking about filling the void, but the VATBAND worked great. I had it on level 3 and it kept the resin around 82. An unexpected benefit was easier cleanup. The warm resin just dips away.

if you give me a timestamp, I can see what I did not make clear and help you move forward.

You're so welcome!

I certainly will. If you have any hurtles you are trying to cross let me know. I am able to slip in custom videos on occasion.

Glad to hear it!

I know, it is frustrating. I hope that it is something that is added soon!

Hmm. will have to try that. Thank you!
