In this tutorial I am going to show you how to easily model a custom brass button, texture it with a raised logo effect in Substance Painter, then register it as a new button in Clo3D. Blender is completely free and can be downloaded from Blender.org<\/a>. You can get a 30-day trial license of Substance Painter at substance3d.com<\/a> and a trial license of Clo3D at clo3d.com<\/a>. It is best to have a familiarity with Blender so I suggest you watch the beginner’s tutorials at CGCookie.com<\/a>– it’s where I learned and continue to learn from their excellent learning flows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t have Painter or if you did and your trial expired, don’t worry, I will be posting another video showing how to do this using only Blender and Photoshop soon. I prefer this workflow but it’s totally possible to do it without Painter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, the video, then the notes. The written instructions are meant as a reference guide only, for full instructions it’s best to watch the whole video- if you have questions post them below or under the You Tube video and I’ll explain further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are the buttons we put on the 2016 United States Olympic team opening ceremony uniforms, and yes that’s me sketching and cutting and sewing these buttons on in the promo video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
