Boolean: Rubber stamp

by Montree T. (easyyong@hotmail.com) - Smoke3dStudio  

This technique helps to save time spent on modeling and is suitable for models which do not have too much detail.

 

1. Create a multi-subobject material which material ID 1 = wall and material ID 2 = window. You can use an opacity map or blend material for this material.



2. Draw a box following the window size and convert it to editable poly and assign a material ID on each polygon.

3. UVWmap and assign the material on this box

4. Create a wall and assign material ID to be 1 which is white wall and assign the same material to it.


5. Back to the window box again, edit and copy the polygon as element and it is ready to boolean

6. Boolean and you will see the window material stamp on the wall with the correct UVW coordinates.
