*@Artur Machura* I'm planning on making a video on how to keep control over the resolution of your sculpt. It's definitely one of the most asked about things.

*@Julien Kaspar* That would be awesome. For now, I am trying different workflows. I've watched your speed sculpting from last year BC. You showed the simplify brush. That is an amazing tool.

No pressure from me, you are now probably very busy with settlers.

*@anasof.persa* I can recommend to mostly use the remesher for early sculpting. Dyntopo has it's advantages but is causing a lot more issues in performance and bad mesh structure.
On the sculpt:

• The eyes seem to be very far apart and wall-eyed. I can always recommend to rotate the eyeballs so that it looks like the character is looking at someone in front of him by rotating them inwards. It gives the impression that he is looking at you instead of into the distance or at nothing at all.
• The ears are drifting far too much into the back of the head and upwards. This is the most common mistake I see people make.

Look at the distance between the ears, eyes and jaw corner for reference

*@Julien Kaspar*

*@anasof.persa* Looks better. He still seems to look off into the distance and towards the ground.

*@kerrkid101* Nice! I can recommend to look at the distance between the corner of the jaw and the ear. They are currently extremely far apart.

*@bellasalvador1014* If you have faces inside the mesh I recommended a fix in the bonus video you watched: In edge select mode, select non-manifold edges and mark them as seams. Then in face select mode, select UV islands with L or Ctrl+ L and delete them. That should fix it most of the time.

*@Julien Kaspar* Just saw this. Thanks so much!!!! I found a workaround before I saw this, but this seems so much better.

*@Víctor Meis* I can recommend not to merge the eyes with anything else since they are meant as separate objects. Merging the nose, ears and eyelids with the rest of the head makes sense since they need to seamlessly blend together ;)

@Elie Helou If you ahve issues with the boolean modifier look at this video. But I recommend to instead join the objects with Ctrl + J and then remesh them. It's the easiest workflow.

*@Yang Qiu* I can only guess, sorry. Try increasing the brush radius? Maybe the mask was not strong enough? Maybe the Edge of the mask wasn't hard enough?

*@Julien Kaspar* Oh I got it to work! You're right, the brush was too small. I made it bigger than the eye ball on grab and it worked nicely.

*@tevtra* True. I skipped ahead a little bit but I can actually now recommend to stick with flat shading while sculpting for the most part.

*@Artur Machura* Yes I can recommend to join the separate objects before going into too much detailing. If you want to go very high in resolution to detail the sculpt then it's best to use the quad remesher or do a manual rough retopology and then continue sculpting with the multiresolution modifier. I'll get a little bit more into that on chapter 3.

I think using the latest builds will give you the best tools but that might not help a lot since I didn't use them for this course.
At the very least I can recommend to use the latest full release of Blender (in this case 2.82a)

*@Julien Kaspar* Thank you Julien

*@fabio1* Dyntopo unfortunately runs very slow on high poly-counts. There are also various other performance issues. As of right now I can recommend to use the voxel remesher instead most of the time (Ctrl + R to remesh & Shift + R to adjust the detail level).
It's faster, more performance efficient and inherently works with all the new Tools in Blender.

*@Cosimo* This video can help: https://cloud.blender.org/p/stylized-character-workflow/5d3a1d3afa5e1feb5a307840

Otherwise I can recommend to just use the voxel remesher (Ctrl + R) which would fix any issues you have.

*@Julien Kaspar* Thank you very much, the Bonus Video was very helpful and helped me solving the problem!

*@kyugak.pm* You don't need to get that high during the voxel remesh sculpting. I want to add another video soon-ish about detailing the sculpt further with multiresolution modifier sculpting since this would solve all your problems with performance, density and switching between modes.
The voxel remesher and dyntopo were never really meant for high detail sculpting anyway.
For now just try to keep it as low and simple as possible.

*@arjdalmoncef* If you merged it with the boolean modifier there could be some issues that snuck in. It could also be that you are sculpting on the front side and the back side of the eyelids at the same time without noticing.
Either way, the best way tio fix this or find out what the issue is is to use the voxel remesher with a high detail size. If the eyelids are too thin for that try to increase the thickness inside the eye socket first.
When remeshing it will lose some of the sculpted detail but that is ok.
This is not meant to go too much into detail yet anyway.

*@Julien Kaspar* I will try this, Thanks a lot.

@Asaka The easiest way to fix it would be by using the voxel remesher. Define a detail size with Shift R and then press Ctrl R to remesh. This would remove any weird issues the boolean modifier caused.

@Julien Kaspar yeah that actually fixed the problem ,  thanks !

*@tallaridaj* It's a new bug with the face sets. When a new mesh is added via object or edit mode there's a chance that it will be assigned a face set (in your case blue) but you will be unable to show or hide them.
It will be fixed very soon.

*@Julien Kaspar* i've been looking into it, i'm pretty sure i was just dealing with non-manifold geometry that got created when i upped the resolution for the lips. also along the boolean union with the ears it created a lot of non-manifold geometry.

*@Chris Fortier* Probably a bug. Try an olderBlender version, update your current one or commit a bug report so someone can fix it.

*@ammar mohammed* You can just vertex paint them if you want.

*@romaingierenz* My tip in general for dyntopo is to first sculpt over an area with another brush first to remesh the surface and then smooth it afterwards.
If you enable the wireframe overlay you will see how uneven the resolution on the mouth is. Dyntopo tends to make surfaces messy, there's no way around it.
And the smooth brush is not actually remeshing surfaces with dyntopo, so it can't fix those bumps by itself.

Alternatively use the Simplify brush and increase the Autosmooth slider. This way the brush will smooth and remesh surfaces at the same time.

*@Van Aken Tom* It could be that you didn't apply the boolean modifiers yet?
Try joining the obejcts and using the voxel remesher instead of the boolean modifier. It will be much faster in every way.

*@romaingierenz* Try disabling dyntopo on high poly counts.

@tuhina ranjan My direct advice would be to not use the boolean modifier for sculpting anymore. Try to join the objects (Ctrl J) and use the voxel remesher (Ctrl R) and choose a good resolution (Shift + R)

@Julien Kaspar great!

@tuhina ranjan You can ideally link it from another source, like a cloud (google drive for example)

@Elie Helou Can you send some images or even the .blend file as an example. Not sure what the issue might be.

@Julien Kaspar It is okay I have figured it

@Peter Klassen The comments are using Markdown, so any images can be embedded here. But I can also just recommend to share a link ;)

@Julien Kaspar Ok, thanks!
