Preview: Sculpt Mode Pose Brush

4
By on Blender Development

Pablo Dobarro shared this preview of Sculpt Mode - a way to post models without having rig your models. It automatically adds IK bones as needed 😱.

Pablo writes:

The new Pose Brush with IK also has an alternative mode that controls the roll rotation of the bones. The brush falloff defines how much rotation is propagated through the chain.

The implementation of the brush is much simpler than it seems. For example, it uses the IK solver explained in this Coding Challenge by @shiffman which only has 21 lines of code. I added comments to the patch to make it easier to understand how it works.

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.
