Member leeg Posted December 24, 2011 Member Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 I love how quick it is to rough out the shape of an object before working on the fine detail. I can't seem to find a way to adjust the proportions of my sculpted object except for scaling the entire object. Is there a way to select part of the object and scale or move it, or can you only scale the whole object? An example: Lets say I rough out the shape of a character and then decide his legs are a bit to long, can I select just the legs or hide the upper body and then just scale the legs to make them shorter?

Psmith Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 Try using the Pose Tool - it has an adjustable "falloff" zone and several different "modes" of creating the zone. It has a scale mode, as well. Greg Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member leeg Posted December 25, 2011 Author Member Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 Thanks Greg, that does what I am looking for. There is also a Free Form mode in the pose tool that will put a lattice around your sculpt and let you scale it too. lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contributor ajz3d Posted November 22, 2012 Contributor Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 There is also a Free Form mode in the pose tool that will put a lattice around your sculpt and let you scale it too. Sorry for digging out an old post, but this... is... absolutely fantastic! Yesterday I cursed 3D Coat for not having a lattice deformer. And whaddya know! I find it today. I guess a little bit of forum-searching never hurts. I would have never thought that it might be camouflaged under the Pose tool. But how do I use it? Manipulating lattice points doesn't seem to deform the voxel volume. Am I missing something here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contributor Tony Nemo Posted November 23, 2012 Contributor Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 "There is not much more we can do to get users to watch them." Actually, your habit of posting the appropriate video when a user is confused is an excellent way to get these watched. If I'm not familiar with the content, I always watch them when prompted in this manner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a hard balance to keep, between including as much info as possible, but go slow enough to not get people mad about it. Then, we all have limits on our attention span, so we have to keep it brief and concise. It's almost a "can't win" proposition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
