Can't Weight Paint at all

Support Basics & Interface
1

Greetings!

So, I’m an amateur at Blender, made some projects and everything went just fine, but I’m composing a scene and when I want to weight paint the floor (plane with Solidify applied) so I can attacht properly some stones, Blender won’t let me do it and stays blue.

I’ve reinstalled it, made a new project and tried, and nothing seems to work. Also I’ve read everything I could find on Google, but nothing.

I’m running Blender 2.8.

If someone could help me, it’d be very kind

Is your plane subdivided? Weight painting paints on mesh vertices, if there aren’t any under the mouse, it won’t paint anything.

Change your brush to draw:

Can you share .blend file?

There you go, mate

Subdivide more. Vertices are your canvas, those are just not enough. Give it like 10 or 20 subdivisions.

Thanks a lot, mate, 20 was the solution! So simple, yet so specific for my noob mind :slight_smile:

If you subdivide more as @Stan_Pancakes says and change to Draw brush with Mix blending mode (This is the default state), everything works fine.
