Amazing work, we are so lucky to have you in blender community, seriously don’t know where I would be without your tutorials.

[@RyanKingArt]

glad my videos can help!

[@fifietlili]

Gosh
How much I love You and your work ❤🙏
Don't You DARE to leave us!😭

[@RyanKingArt]

thank you : )

[@asturiasmontoya722]

Hello Ryan, for the visibility of the mesh used for retopology, you now have an option in the Mesh Edit Mode Overlays (just at the right of the Overlays in Edit Mode) named "Retopology" ;). So the mesh appears above the sculpted mesh.

[@selenoner143]

You are so good at teaching! Simple and uncomplicated words in understandable sentences... You got this!

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks!

[@Gregory_Harshfield]

Ryan, I am having such a blast with this. I remember back in the 2.7 days squirming around in the mud with this and wanting to throw my monitor. You nailed it. I kind of wish I could get feedback from you on what I am working and get some one-on-one Q&A. But, I understand that may not be an option. Thanks, again!

[@RyanKingArt]

Thank you very much for your support! Glad my videos can help. Yeah, I decided not to do one on one paid teaching, so that I can focus more of my time on creating these tutorials to reach a wider audience and more people.

[@Gregory_Harshfield]

@@RyanKingArt I get it.

[@aleksvitek798]

Ryan, The King of Blender

[@magnum7424]

Was waiting for one of these to be made by you specifically. Thanks for all the tutorials you make, no one explains them as well, especially for free.

[@loan20000]

Fantastic video! I was doing my retopo wrong and this clearly and efficiently showed me how to correct my mistakes.

[@abhaynath5833]

Ryan for president 💪

[@RyanKingArt]

Haha thanks : )

[@ti80895]

🥲

[@UnpluggedArena]

agree

[@user-nz8li2nu1u]

Thanks for sharing!! You are the Best. You explain very easily all content.

[@Blonder_Studio]

man even though i already know retopo its always just fun to watch this video cuz man your vids are so relaxing

[@RyanKingArt]

glad you like the video!

[@yuraamirov7893]

very good tutorial . thank you !

[@chrollokillua3945]

Just in time for when I needed a retopology video😭😭😭❤️ thank you very much!! Your videos are seriously top tier!

[@RyanKingArt]

You're welcome!

[@hadriscus]

Good and thorough explanation of Blender's retopo tools

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks!

[@13thehev]

Rig it paint it animate it pleeeeease your sculpts are divine

[@RyanKingArt]

Maybe I can. 👍‍

[@MrMuri84]

IMO topology is for making the mesh optimal for rigging, so it would be nice if you could show some knowledge about rigging.

[@Gametime05577]

Thanks ❤

[@RyanKingArt]

welcome!

[@EricaCalman]

Thank you for posting! I actually have a lot of models I want to retopologize even though they're low poly because they are STLs with really awkward topology that goes haywire when I try to modify or subdivide so this helps a lot with that.

[@RyanKingArt]

glad its helpful!

[@RealGaryGibson]

Great info! I'm looking forward to the normals baking.

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks!

[@malissimo43]

Excelente, Gracias

[@nicolassuarez2933]

Outstanding!

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks!

[@os6078]

Great tutorial as always 🎉🎉

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks!

[@adeelawan4119]

I have sculpted the whole character and looking for video for retopology..... because it's too difficult for me.
But you made it easy.
You are amazing... love you

[@RyanKingArt]

glad it helps!

[@Zwartebanaan12]

Just what I needed! thank you!

[@RyanKingArt]

You're welcome!

[@ShohSlaought-hh6qe]

Thats what i need

[@7thdom]

Amazing tutorial sir

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks!

[@user-fx2kx5or5u]

Something I can use my head with :)

[@CCJ1998]

Retopology is fine if you are doing these for a video game. I've mostly done my stuff for art and static posing, so I never bother with it.

[@RyanKingArt]

yes, retopology isn't always needed. it depends on what you are creating.

[@ti80895]

thank you sir, i think it really will veryy usefull🤩

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks!

[@blenderstuffs]

Amazing

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks!

[@com.zootub.HuyAC.1]

Can you make a short video about the best tolopogy for material displacement ?

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks for the video idea.

[@mkm3789]

How do I bake a PBR material with altered scale in the mapping node into a single texture image while taking the scale into account ?

[@Ruffahhhoruwork_part2]

You are best

[@RyanKingArt]

thank you

[@keybladegames_real]

It doesn't work. Everything on mine is doing the exact opposite of yours. Mine is floating instead of snapping, the mirror isn't matching the panel at all and is just stretching out in places and it keeps clipping.

[@TurboDodgeXVI]

Oh nice! Perfect timing. I'm making a few characters from WoW and some have these "tattoos" that are actually supposed to be metal plates. I've been trying and trying to trace them out along the body so I can give them all just a tiny bit of actual 3D texture. This should be perfect for that. Assuming I can use this method to stencil them out, solidify them a teensy bit and then fuse back to the model. Thanks!

[@MartKart8]

I find the retopology so confusing, I tend to make things low poly first before making it high poly,
Once a person I know was asking for help with a file, it was near the 30MB size, I used decimate 2 times, and reduced the size to around 2Mb, the head model still looks exactly the same, he was quite surprised I lowered the file size for him. He's using the new head for a game, and it's working well for him.

[@RyanKingArt]

yes, the decimate modifier is very useful!

[@IFHD350]

when are the rail episodes coming? I’m still waiting.

[@RyanKingArt]

I haven't started working on it yet. I have a massive list of tutorial ideas.

[@bandor_man.]

I am only 13 year old and I am learning blender ❤🎉

[@nicholsonjay4724]

There is nothing simple about blender. Holy smokes.

[@RyanKingArt]

Haha yeah

[@misfit_xyz]

Thanks 🇮🇳🕉️🇮🇱

[@RyanKingArt]

welcome!

[@JK-dv3qe]

retopology is -> second guessing yourself. and then the animations looks shait. Disney comes to mind
