No Smoking
Oh nice, a link please! Would love to learn how to split and merge without…you know…
Its simple - split the mesh, paint as you like, add 2 levels of subdivision to one part & then drag the slider back down to remove the subdivision. “Delete higher” subdivision & rejoin the split objects. You get a sharp join and therefore a sharp painted division
Dammit, I picked the wrong week to start smoking!!
Edit:
It seems like sometimes it works better to subdivide the other part, not the splitted piece
Is it a bug? Why does this work?
Thank you! incredible, more of these tricks please!!
I guess it works because the subdivision possibly creates new vertices around the edges. When you join them there is a double up of vertices & they don’t get welded & therefore don’t share colour information with each other, which makes the blur. Just a guess
