16. 0:54delete everything
17. 0:58resets a few
18. 1:00and you need for this a plane here a
19. 1:04plane primitive
20. 1:05and here reset it
21. 1:09and
22. 1:15you can validate the object and here in
23. 1:19on the side menu uses snapping 90
24. 1:21degrees and bring it in the front view
25. 1:24like this
26. 1:26so

47. 2:37and locks a few
48. 2:39so here locked
49. 2:44this is your canvas and here you see
50. 2:47your wireframe we need much more
51. 2:49topology
52. 2:51so here multi-resolution here is a
53. 2:54linear subdivision checkbox and
54. 2:56subdivided up to 1 million
55. 2:59so we need a million
56. 3:04okay
57. 3:08the next thing is here
58. 3:11you can
59. 3:13set a few
60. 3:16here you see here in the render settings
61. 3:19you can set here a transparent
62. 3:21background and a square image and you
63. 3:24can set here the resolution here um
64. 3:28so and you see here at the moment
65. 3:34um your your borders here this is a
66. 3:38square border so when you pick here the
67. 3:41the ring here
68. 3:44or the green Direction this one you can
69. 3:48scale your
70. 3:50um
71. 3:51your plane that it fits inside the
72. 3:56export border
73. 3:58so and then press here on the camera
74. 4:03and add a few so
75. 4:06every time you press here The View

80. 4:25the next thing is
81. 4:28you set it here here to unlit the
82. 4:31material
83. 4:33this is correct
84. 4:35and the next important thing is here in
85. 4:39the post process settings here activate

97. 5:20not roughness
98. 5:22choose here a pure black color
99. 5:26roughness is okay
100. 5:28so and the next thing here you can
101. 5:31change here your fall off a little bit
102. 5:34if you like so when you paint here
103. 5:38you get something like this
104. 5:40and when your fall off is like this then
105. 5:45it's a little bit different
106. 5:46um
107. 5:48so you get this shape nearly in the
108. 5:51alpha
109. 5:52when you paint with it so
110. 5:56you can test
111. 5:58what happens
112. 6:00so
113. 6:01I use at the moment this one here all

116. 6:12and remember here the pressure settings
117. 6:16are now active you can use it or not so
118. 6:23Let's test it
119. 6:25and yeah symmetry is active or not
120. 6:31and let's draw
121. 6:38a nice Alpha
122. 6:41something like this
123. 6:48okay
124. 6:50now go to your view
125. 6:53set it um
126. 6:55that it's centered here
127. 6:58and here in the render settings

132. 7:19so we can bring in um
133. 7:22so um sorry um here it's possible to
134. 7:28to save this
135. 7:30um when you use here the settings here
136. 7:34save as and create a new file and save
137. 7:38it as Alpha
138. 7:48so
139. 7:49this is um your project and you can
140. 7:54reopen it every time
141. 7:56and it's also possible
142. 7:58to when I go back here when you add here
143. 8:01a layer
144. 8:04and save it again
145. 8:07you can reuse this
146. 8:10every time to create your Alphas here
147. 8:14so now
148. 8:18draw again your shape here
149. 8:20and
150. 8:22press on the camera view and Export it
151. 8:27so
152. 8:35okay
153. 8:38the next thing is we can test our
154. 8:41our brush
155. 8:43let's bring in a
156. 8:47sphere
157. 8:50validate the object and we need more
158. 8:52topology
159. 8:53subdivided a few times
160. 8:58so
161. 8:59the wireframe looks like this
162. 9:04and okay
163. 9:06and use the brush tool or the stamp
164. 9:10brush
165. 9:12and here in the brush settings
166. 9:15here you can change now your Alpha image
167. 9:20so press import
168. 9:23and use this one
169. 9:27here in the alpha settings you can
170. 9:30invert the pixels
171. 9:33and
172. 9:37yeah what do we need stroke settings
173. 9:41yeah
174. 9:43and tested
175. 9:45and
176. 9:47can use it a little bit bigger
177. 9:59so you got here your nice brush and
178. 10:04so you can replace your image with the
179. 10:08other
180. 10:09one
181. 10:12and
182. 10:16so let's test this one
183. 10:24yeah
184. 10:27nice
185. 10:29so I think the post processing is not
186. 10:32really needed because the differing
187. 10:35option is
188. 10:37um
189. 10:37yeah the tethering makes the alpha
190. 10:41grainy because
191. 10:44in the version before it doesn't work
192. 10:46correctly so I think it's only possible
193. 10:49with version 179
194. 10:51to make these clear Alphas here
195. 10:56that's it have fun with sculpting ciao
