this was the best rig video for me
Ok so how do you do any of that . Thanks 👍
This is actually a Terrible way to do string. He should've used a much more streamlined cloth animation for the rope.
only tutorial that worked for me thank you so much
Hi, The preview is not showing when i search my model. Please help
man , no matter how many times i make that pawn , yours just looks better !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As I try to apply the Ik the whole model starts to turn around.
Instead of looking at the item panel to check if it's rotation/location is off, you can just enable the rotation or move gizmo and it'll show you which way it's set. Not as much information but it's good in a quick pinch to visualize what's going on.
wait, what!?... I don’t have F12 on my Macbook. How do I export the rendered image?
Go to the render menu at the top
I see a low sample and alot od denoising.
Yes
@@grabbitt okie. rn following your playlist and trying the rabbit rn.
This doesn't work!
Check the update in the description
@@grabbitt I saw the new video. It's just annoying this came up in the search. I had to type in 2024 to get up to date results.
For some reason I wasn't able to add a collection. I'm on 4.1 and the add collection button is no longer there. Tried the shortcut Ctrl - G too but nothing happened. Can someone tell me what exactly should I do? Thank you, and I love this tutorial series :)
m is the button now for "Move" to new collection
@@grabbitt Thank you very much 👍
you had a great looking original dragon (without detail ofc) at 2:00. that was a fun design if you kept it there. my grandma makes dragons, always everything on it, scales ribs in the horns. she always said: i hate to make it so complicated.
i dont like this you are british >:(
mean meanie meaaaaanie meanie mc meanie pants mean meani
what about me being British is bad in your mind? To be honest whilst i am British I'm not sure i conform to the classic "British values" that you might associate with people from Britain.
Do my human model need to have separate body parts for the bones to work or it can work with all the body parts together? is there a tutorial of yours that can help me on my problem? cause i made a human model for a friend and when i put the bones and the automatic weigh it just deformed and streched like some anti-stress doll
they can be all one mesh. I think this could be due for an update so i may do this soon
I know this is an older tutorial, but I wanted to say I remember seeing your work on a bunch of GameDev tv courses I was going through. Just like with those, you have a very clear and easy to follow teaching style that I really appreciate. I've tried to get into blender several times over the past ten years or so, and your tutorials are the first ones that haven't left me feeling confused or frustrated
Last night I spent a few hours building a 3d anim for my intro log. I spent 2 hours trying to recreate my SVG by hand. After finishing the attempt, I pondered "Does Grant have a video on this??" Lo and behold you have exactly the tutorial I needed. So now I am importing SVGs and editing them in Blender! SWEEEEEEEET!!!!! Thanks, Grant, Much appreciated!
Thank you for sharing! Question, would it be possible to add fine detail during the texturing phase?
yes
hi i have dowloaded a model from sketchfab and tried to recolour it it recolours it but only in texture mode it does not imply the paint in modeling mode
are you in material preview mode?
You absolute legend
It is slowly becoming more clear. Thank you for a great tutorial.
how to make the image plane bigger?
s to scale
This is really cool! do plan on making an advanced blender course any time in the future?
on which subject
my light is not clipping at all
Brooo Thank you 🙏🏼 i was about to cry for lost my project 😢
Even though I've worked dailey in Blenderfor many years I find your tutorials cover issues new to me! Thank you so much for these concise delves into the inner workings of Blender.
I pressed U but it did absolutely nothing preventing me from opening up the small menu for the textures
Are you in edit mode? Also check the update in description
@@grabbitt its probably because I'm using another preference of the system where alt is where i move freely. I'm trying to find out how to convert a drawing to texture if that may help
help at 9:50 i try to extrude but it just gets thinner
This felt like those drawing tutorials that go: Step 1: Draw a cube and two circles Step 2: Connect them with lines Step 3: *Add details*
whats the refresh rate on the panel?
You should've make the ears 👂 big too Because the nose are so big 😅 But anyway it's a good beginner tutorial thanks 😊
how would this affect shading and texturing? might we have to retopologize and stuff?
not really it shouldn't effect that too much
8:43 My version of Blender doesn't have "normals" in the object data panel Update: If you're using Blender 4.1 and onwards click the blue wrench icon (modifiers). Click "add modifier" then click normals, and auto smooth.
THANK YOU SO MUCH !
Your tutorials are always so well thought out and easy to follow. Thank you!!!!
Thank you. Very usfull 👌
thank you Grant
I have a problem , please help me out. i will be grateful. if i make logo using 3d models like box, cone etc present in create section of element , then that model is able to be saved and imported into 3D element scene . but when i autotrace any image in after effects and then apply video copilot's E3d effect load image on texture map and auto traced mask in mask map and open E3d scene set up and extrude that model in preview and and load texture on that and save it in folder whose destination is Documents/VideoCopilot/Models , then i am not able to import it . the E3d scene shows it, but E3d preview does not show the model but it is showing the gizmo of that folder which contains model . please help me out.if i make logo using 3d models like box, cone etc present in create section of element , then that model is able to be saved and imported into 3D element scene . but when i autotrace any image in after effects and then apply video copilot's E3d effect load image on texture map and auto traced mask in mask map and open E3d scene set up and extrude that model in preview and and load texture on that and save it in folder whose destination is Documents/VideoCopilot/Models , then i am not able to import it . the E3d scene shows it, but E3d preview does not show the model but it is showing the gizmo of that folder which contains model . please help me out.
not something i have had experience with im afraid
Nice and clean explanation! No „water“ in between, just what you need! Thanks! U a my favorite CZcamsr :)
Idk whether or not you have covered this already, but I'm still having trouble with holes on a curved surface. And by holes I mean the ones with corners, to be used with subdivision later. It's one of those times when I just can't brute force it with a higher polycount base mesh.
usually its to do with the position of your poles
insert b aint working
you may have some doubles
Yeah there’s no way to add a new texture on mine? I didn’t add one so it should be there And if I did somehow accidentally add one I’m not seeing a way to easily remove it
check the update in the description
Not me thinking I had to start with a Bezier curve and extrude 🥲
Oh it so simple, I made a battle pod from Robotech without this function instead I used subdivision tool and extrusion which caused a ton of issues
I would really like to see a gun modelling series from you, i hope you do one in the future!
You are the Blender OG 🔥
Thanks for this! i was getting frustrated because I was dragging the image into the build area, not 'opening' it.
Instead of extrude then alt + s to get that effect, just do alt + e to extrude along normals and you will get the same thing but faster.
Thanx
Hi, I'm very new tot this kind of 3D drawing/sculpting. I've always been drawing in Rhino, mostly for jewelry applications, but this is so fascinating and allowing much more possibilities for creating free form natural 3D models. This is one of the most helpful tutorials I came across! You're explaining every step with the correct empathic attitude to understand it as a beginner. At the moment I've got one crucial question, what kind of pen-tablet would you advice to start sculpting in Blender? Any brand/model you could advice? Anyway, thank you very much for this great tutorial, making it look 'easy'. Can't wait to try this out and build up some experience.
see my ultimate guide to graphics tablets in blender. Short answer xp pen is the brand i would currently recommend
