i appreciate you making this video, i really hope in the future they make serious changes to this so it's more automatic, it almost seems like a feat on itself to upload a complete model into this website lol
They seriously need to make this an automated process.. imagine uploading many sets and going through them once again, things you've already done in the 3d modeling phase. Probably needs a SketchUp plug-in for the used software but hell, I would not have the patience for setting everything once again. The sets I normally work with are complex scenes of large areas and can't seriously imagine going through them In this way.
thankyou so much for making this video!! sketchfab always confused me and I wish there were clearer answers online to my troubles on how to upload stuff to sketchfab! So thankyou for making sketchfab more accessible to those not as experienced or in the know! This is super helpful because now I can actually start to build a portfolio on there :D
Hello Grant. I've bought the 3D Blender course in Udemy that you're teaching. Can't wait to learn everything from you. Thanks for all the knowledge you have shared to us.
i am very excited that you have a paid course. I bought it this morning because i saw you were the teacher.. I have been following you for a year off and on. great teacher and slow enough to make sense. thanks
Thx for this series of lessons. That's really help me to start learn blender. All was great and I got my result as cute final image. just one moment: lesson about trees is good but the trees not in same style like was made the istland and the castle. It was a little confusing. Thanks one more time :) That was great!
I would love to use sketchfab for my animation to showcase what i've been learning in my udemy course. hope 2 see a video on how to upload animation to sketchfab in the near future. :D
Will you consider making a video on __downloading__ files from Sketchfab? I have downloaded a models, static and animated. I can’t make the animations work. I can find and apply textures, resize, etc. But I’m stumped by the anime. I can usually get one of a set to work. But I can’t find or use any animations except the first one.
I have heard about sketchfab. And it seems really handy. Maybe I create an account later (in one or two month :) ). I also saw other 3D artists who had an Addon in Blender to use it directly to import from sketchfab.
It's so difficult to do basic things though like how tf am I supposed to get each of my MANY simple solid color materials with different levels of shine to them exactly the way they're supposed to be before Sketchfab ignored them? Such an anti-user experience imo.
Hello! So I'm getting into blender and I'm loving it. I'm loving it to the point of thinking about buying a course, I'm 13 so I will maybe have to make an agreement with my parents. What would you recommend? is CG boost really the best? Thanks
When you export to FBX and the model will be used in UE, you should also tick in the Geometry / Smoothing to "Edge" (i.imgur.com/9CppJCX.png). If you miss that, when you import the model to UE, you get a warning that no smoothing group was selected for the model.
Hi again Grant. How about a tutorial showing how to bake your lighting - Sketchfab is great for day scenes but not for night - when you need more than 3 lights. I spent a lot of time googling solutions for this - and dealing with the noise in the bake. I think people might get a lot out of this - I've seen a lot of queries within sketchfab but also in general about how to bake lighting...a lot of gaming people struggling with this as well. Also, could you put up an affiliate link for the Wacom cintiq 22 so that when I buy it I can support you :)
Thanks. sorry its difficult for me to see replies on youtube. are you uk - if you havent bought it yet amzn.to/3gxiJPU here is an affiliate link :) amzn.to/3di3J6s US link Thanks for thinking of me
@@grabbitt thanks man. I'm actually struggling to get it. My agent is buying it for me as I cannot seem to ship it to South Africa - so we have to go via Italy - regular case of mail ping pong. But that's also a problem as then I pay 22% Italian VAT so he's looking on the German amazon I believe. So it's a South Africa-bound tablet sourced in Italy via a German website. I cannot even begin to imagine what affiliate link that would require hahaha. I'd really like to support you as your beginner tuts got me through the worst of it - if I can't get this to work I'll message you on your discord somehow and we'll make another plan...
Great information as always Mr. Abbitt! Please tell me which is better to do sculpting in Blender 2.82 or 2.9? I was googling vs to see which is better for me to start working in but....not getting any info. Thanks in advance. I'm a newbie to all of this.
Where is the upload button on the mobile version of the sketchfab website? I was able to do my first upload just fine from the Models page but then that space has been occupied by my first upload that I made. Now I can’t find an option to upload anywhere. And if I request the desktop site from my phone it just reloads the same page in mobile form.
What if my project is procedural? I want to export a project from Blender but Sketchfab receive the model in blank, I´m not using image textures, only nodes. really is neccessary work with the materials or Sketchfab 3D editor later of have all done example with Blender? Thanks for any response.
As promised I got your course good deal hooking up with gamedev I hope it is profitable for you I also hope you take over all the blender stuff they do
yo fam i cant edit my 3d model it says"Sorry, your browser is not compatible with the 3D settings editor. Please use a WebGL-enabled browser to edit your 3D settings." but i already eneble the WebGL in chrome the thumbnail of my 3d model is so ugly so far and cnt even see the model
Hey Grant really helpful share thanks for that! I''m new to Blender and I'd want to publish/showcase my future models for free (to build a portfolio). Is there a site just for sharing without having to sell?
Thanks Mr. Grant for this video. Your videos are awesome 👍👌. And can I ask a question for you 🤗 ? Can I upload my work in sketchfab for free, that mean I don't need to sell them, I only need to know people's idea about it. And can you make a video about more market places to sell and discuss our models? Reason for this questions, I am new to this field. I have started working with blender in last month. And I am a university student and I work with blender in my free time. And I love it ❤️. I really appreciate if you can make a video about it. It will be great help to lot of people. Thank you very much 😊. And again your videos are awesome, keep it up 🤗🤗
Hi Grant...I am following ur technique and successful.. thank u so much...once I upload I see my model triangles and vertices are very high..how do I bring them down? any tips please
I created a new texture image to apply to my ghost in Skechfab, but when I put it in the base color part, my texture looks lifeless compared to the materials in Blender. Why?
@@grabbitt I see some model in sketch fab and they have outline in the viewer. I wonder how they do it since there is no outline option in material settings

4 years and nothing changed lol
@@Julix00 Crazy thing is I've uploaded stuff before without doing all this. No idea what I was doing differently.
hi I started blender about 2 weeks ago, and I finally something to look up to

you don need to unless its textures but yes i understand
@@grabbitt Hi, have they improved this with the sketchfab Blender plugin? I can't get it to import any of my textures so far.. super weird

yeah i always found that to be a bit of a pain
Hi, The preview is not showing when i search my model. Please help
It's so difficult to do basic things though like how tf am I supposed to get each of my MANY simple solid color materials with different levels of shine to them exactly the way they're supposed to be before Sketchfab ignored them? Such an anti-user experience imo.

cg boost i think yes. Then after that the character course i have made if you want to make characters :)
thanks i will use it
Enjoy

How can I add height map without turn off the normal map?
Use the bump node

How much are you making by selling your models in Sketchfab?
Not much
@@grabbitt :c
No link to the fancy castle on the floating island course, even though he said there would be
thanks i'll check
added now
nice model
How long does it take for sketchfab to approve the seller application?
Not sure
Hi Grant,
I want to upload to CG Trader is there anything i need to do to my model before I upload? Like baking out maps?
Thanks 🙂
Yes you have to bake textures
@grabbitt ok, thank you. I'm also assuming normal and rough maps as well.
@@01Bluedragon yes

use the decimate or remesh options
@@grabbitt oh ok ..Will try that
what is the max file size to upload in sketchfab?
40000k polygons it used to be
I created a new texture image to apply to my ghost in Skechfab, but when I put it in the base color part, my texture looks lifeless compared to the materials in Blender. Why?
yes its tricky to get the same material
@@grabbitt Is there any way to make it the same or similar without having to redo it in another program?

Don't think so only bump and normal

How to upload your model with outline shading in sketch fab 3d viewer
That gets tricky

yeah you need to set up a reversed normal outline
@@grabbitt how?
if i only change through principle bsdf than do i have to bake?
no
Thank you I had a super good model that I wanted to sell tnx
It doesn't work
Hey nice video! Maybe consider making a car tutorial.
Maybe
Grant Abbitt thanks for the response, you make amazing tutorials!
Have you creat this 3d model on blender ??
Yes
@@grabbitt thanks 🙏 for reply sir
There is not 1 tutorial on the entire internet to show how to embed an image to your model, using html & an image code.
hi grant. can i post the same model in 2 or more website for sale?
yes i believe so
Thx sir :) i think i need this so much
