Very nice! Keep it up, excited to see more for 2023😃
Make it your job
Your work has been amazing from the start
Oh thank you man
Agreed, I've been going around seven months and your day one stuff is better than me now 😅
@Aym please tell me from where you learned all step by step any course or youtuber please you are inspiration for me please tell me
@@aj6807 we all learn at different speeds! Just keep at it :)
@@tirthgajera606 Donut and chair tutorial by Blender Guru and after that I started doing my own thing. But I watch a lot of tutorials all the time, some of my favs are from Default Cube/CGMatter, Bad Normals and Kristof Dedene!
What I admire the most is how you actually finish each project, and present it clean
Finishing is the hardest part!!
@@en2336IMO the edging is a bit harder
@@en2336Fr because I’m in studying hell . I just do enough to know that I can do something and not because I want to Finish a project
@@en2336ayo
Your first character is like my one millionth character(probably not even that). Your work is very high quality. I cannot imagine what 2 years of blender is going to look like. Already looking forward to that.
hey where r u now?
Bro he's trolling you. He's been using blender for a long time. It's obvious he trolled us
@@jrgamerelite5287 you do know the OP doesn't have 1 year it's more like 10 years. No one is this good in a year
@@KingdomCre8tive actually you can be this good in a year, maybe less, but you need a pretty good PC in order to make the animations and a lot of time to learn.
@@kuro4d820 yes u're right! a lot of times! it can be 20 hours per day with 4 hours sleep
Were you ever a beginner
No he followed that one video we all true 3d artists do.
@@ProAshplayz which one
@@keenarisBlenderguru
@@ProAshplayz currently doing that so i know what you mean.
Blenderguru
Wow, this shows how much better someone can be if they are dedicated to something.
All the best!
People who have the first model is Donut 🙌
Moral of story : video creator is fan of pokemon
I’m starting with Blender but I was doing a bedroom it took me 4 days to finished and I put a lot of time into but in the end it was all worth it and now I’m learning new stuff it is so fun now that I can’t stop. Keep up the good work.
Although not a native blender user but disciplined in many other 3d packages, I also started there. Been doing it for 16 years now, and at a point it becomes muscle memory. The things I can create in a day now would have taken me weeks if not months a few years ago.
I am a new blender user, learning from books for 2 months. and after that, I was confused, because I didn't know where my style was. for example, whether in game characters or assets or the like.
would you recommend me some books?
@@Shikkai123 I hope that muscle memory operates with me eventually

I am very proud of you and your hard work and dedication! Everything looks amazing! Keep it up!
To be honest AWESOME result for 1 year. I'm impressed!
Fam that progress is impressive, keep it up
Thank you :D
I'm starting learning to use Blender today, and your video definitely made me even more excited ! that is crazy the evolution you've been through in only 1 year ! really impressive, keep it up 😁
i am also excited to start
Pretty motivating, just picking up blender myself and now im hype!
What a great progress! I am just starting to learn blender, I hope I can be as great as you are!
Even from the beginning it looked like a professional's work. Well done.
That's because it is and he prolly has 10 years put in. He's trolling everyone who thinks he had zero experience. Such bull crap. It's like a software programmer saying they coded the front end and backend of a large website in 1 year.
Wow! Congrats on your progress brother. I started working with Blender about 2 years ago, but at same time wanted to learn 2d drawing, animation and video-editing so i feel my progress has not gone so quick and impressive as yours but i'm making some progress too lol. Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks Marco (yes, I may have had a look at your videos ;)! Big fan of the animated 2D card into 3D, I've always wanted to try do something similar and I think you smashed it honestly! And yeah, I was lucky to already have video editing under my belt so I could just focus solely on the 3D stuff! Also funnily enough, I can't draw at all so rn I'm actually using blender to create art that looks 2D (an example would be my latest Shorts video on my channel) haha
@@TheAimDown thanks a lot for your compliment brother, really appreciate it!🙏🏼 Gonna check your shorts straightforward and you just got yourself a new subscriber as a way to support 💪🏼😁
I really like this comment a ton since I'm starting to learn blender and also 2d drawing for animation. I want my work to be like ufotable because the way they incorporate cgi with 2d is incredible. Do you have any tips for balancing the improvement with blender, drawing, and animation?
@@azpectral8500 hey bro, the only tips i can give you is this: when you start feeling frustrated working with Blender/video editing because of the complexity of the scenario you might encounter, don't be too stubburn and bask in frustration. Instead move to drawing and the study of 2d illustrations which can still be a challenge, but far more relaxing and definitely less frustrating 💪🏼😅 and of course never give up, as eventually with commitment you'll get there. We're all on the same path brother 🤗
@@da_drood-digitalart thank you so much for the advice bro, it means a lot and I'll definitely put the advice into good use
Your work is just remarkable feat. It took long time but it is really worthy
Amazing work from start till now. Very impressive
Your dedication is amazing. Loved your work. Keep it up ❤️
I'm a gamer by nature. Love logic and building stuff. I have been aware of blender for years, but recently as a joke to my boss, i thought wouldn't it be cool to have a metaverse type place for the restaurants that we work at in South africa. So i started playing around with building a mesh model of one of our shops and the bug for using blender bit me hard. It's always been a fascination of mine to combine internet shopping, 3d internet places for the next gen of the metaverse. Step 1 has been taken. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Your progress is amazing! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for sharing this. I am just starting with my donut and it is amazing to see what possibilities lie ahead. Appreciate your video very much.
Wow, all the works were unique.
It must have been a fantastic journey working on all those projects.
Carry on waiting for more in the future.
Pretty creative stuff, keep it up!
damn, your shot composition was perfect to begin with, you must have an eye for it, brother, keep going!
You are amazing, and it is nice to see that we followed a few tutorials in common!
I can hardly imagine taking my ability to that level. I'm in awe
Did you?
Wow! I hope I can get to be this good one day. I recognized your pokemon entries in the Alternate Dimensions and Dynamic Machines Challenges!
thank you so much man, I really appreciate it! Keep it up and you'll get there, there's no doubt in my mind! and yooo, honestly, creating pokemon stuff in 3D has helped me a ton, I feel like. It's hugely nostalgic to me and being passionate about what you create is definitely the key to success.
Shameless plug but if you liked my entries in pwnishers challenges then feel free to have a look at instagram.com/ricksartd/. It's what I'm currently working on when it comes to 3D and it's still pokemon related lol
Your house in the snow is beautiful. Brings back memories for some reason
That ocean looked fantastic 😍😍😍 wonderful work💯
This is so inspirational. I am doing this in 1 year from now I really love 3D. ❤ Thank you so Much!
its always amazing to see these one year progression videos, People make the things they like the most and its wholesome to see that. meanwhile i am over here learning sculpting for almost 6 months and made 0 new renders, i might just take a break of a month or 2 and then hop back in. Keep up the good work
Edit: i am learning Sculpting mainly because i have made myself i guess a "rule" to not use someone else's work at all like using their 3D models in my render, no matter how minor of a detail it is i try to do it all myself. not that there is anything wrong with it. Beside for texture and while doing animations i use some 3D models that i find online since the main focus of that is animation. but rn i am at a point where i lost all motivation so i am going to take a break
I think having a rule like that is great when making your own renders. I had a rule just like that in one of the renders in this video (the city corner one, with the bridge). While it wouldn't be appreciated as much in a work environment, I definitely feel like it helped me improve quicker as I was forced to model everything myself!
@@TheAimDown It helps a lot with learning and you get to appreciate the art more. These types of videos actually give me more motivation to continue doing 3D. i am most likely gonna learn Geometry nodes to do environment/Landscape type renders since doing all of it by hand is kind of hard. Best of luck with your work, maybe soon i'll upload my own blender progression video.
@@samyanide as someone who works as a 3d artist in the industry. I would say your approach is only useful if your goal is to be a generalist, which is a harder role to acquire. If you want to be an animator for example. Do not waste your time learning to sculpt. You’d want to spend time learning solely animation, then rigging as it compliments the role nicely. The same goes for other areas. You should practice 3d with a clear path towards your end goal, and learn the skills that compliment it.
This is really such an awesome burst of inspiration! Awesome work duder
You mean a fake news video. This guy has at least a few years to 10 years experience
great job! I just finished my first donut :D and starting a cup of coffee. Hope in a year I'll be as good as you are :)
thank you thank you! good luck!! :)
It can't get anymore simple than this. Thank you soo much howtobasic!
its so amazing, and impressive work you have there !
The walking loop could have easily fit into 1980's tech on TV. Once you got to the ocean though, I got the sense that you really saw the possibilities. The Gameboy Ad though was the cleanest. Well done.
Just starting my journey into Blender - thank you for the inspiration~
how its been?
I hope to be this good some day. Currently it's like pulling teeth with my donut tutorial, but I'm not giving up on it! My pc will always be there when I need a break
@smittyvanjermanjenson182 I am also following the same playlist, plz review me first donut creation on my channel
AMAZING,it has inspired me to have another go at blender. thank you
very impressive progress. you must be very talented. keep up the good work!
My goD!!! this is incredible progress!! Half a year in and you're better than everyone working at Gamefreak
Wow, that's really amazing to learn all this in just one year, it's really commendable. May I ask how you learned to use Blender, perhaps from CZcams?
Thank you! Yeah, it's all youtube tbh. Tutorials from Blender Guru, CGMatter/Default Cube, Bad Normals, Polyfjord, Kristof Dedene, Pierrick Picaut for the most part!
You achieve more in a year than I would in a lifetime. Kudos.
Thats because this is his lifetime work. He's trolling everyone with this 1 year crap
inspiring .. added to my playlist ... when ever get down, sure this will guide as a roadmap to me personally... thankyou
wow this hard to beleive kind of progress. truly astonishing. I am seeing flames on my end. I'll hopefully get to your level soon.
I can just imagine how much better i could be if i didnt have the worst computer ever to work with. Blender for me when i animate goes at 4 frames per second at worst and 10 at best. It destroys my motivation to animate at all sometimes. I just hope 1 day i can afford something better so i can really show my passion. Beautiful video, your work is inspiring!
you can use google studio
for rendering
@@Kaaos_ solid view
@@Kaaos_ but if i need to animate something like eyeballs then yeah i go with the textured
@@Kaaos_ no. I use CATS for animation and the poly count and bones aren't alot. Ive tried animating an official resident evil model once and they had a ridiculous amount of poly's. The models i use are fairly simple. Its when i add another simple model that it starts to drop in frames. Or if i add a scene
Better than my 4 years of Blender, you have made some amazing work!
Much appreciated!
Awesome journey! I love it, and hopefully this will be my destiny for 2023 :D
so how did it go?
OMG, Infinite Journey is my FAVE! What a beautiful bit of story telling
Inspirational 🥺
Was feeling less motivated since I am only starting but after seeing your video I got motivated again. thanks for the video and I will make one year progress video like you
Any tips for beginners
Congratulations, The milk carton one and the ocean were really impressive, can you link the tutorial for those?
The milk carton one I didn't use a tutorial for but the tutorial for the ocean can be found here: czcams.com/video/n8PSS5HqC-Q/video.html :)
@@TheAimDown thank you fren.
finna start my 3D journey today lol been watching these kinds of videos to hype myself
Thats some solid progress man
I quit Blender after failing to make a donut ;-; but I've still always wanted to learn 3D art. Right now I'm learning Godot and 2D art, but after watching this video, I'm gonna try to learn Blender again
I'm glad to hear you're gonna give Blender another try! Everyone learns at a different pace so just keep at it and you'll see improvement, I promise you. Funnily enough I am currently using Blender to create 2D (I guess 2.5D?) art!
Good luck in your future 3D endeavours!! If you ever feel stuck again then feel free to contact me and maybe I can be of help. Easiest would be on instagram ( instagram.com/ricksartd/ ) I think.
The Donut tutorial made me quit at first too. But since I use Blender only for making game assets, I think the infamous donut tutorial is waaaay too much for that. I recommend you the game assets tutorials from Grant Abbit. He has some very nice tutorials on creating game assets with handpainted materials. This made me fall in love with blender and my imporvements skyrocketed ever since :) Maybe this will kindle your interest too.
@@Shikigami6 This definitely interests me!Thank you for the recommendation, I'll definitely check him out.
@@TheAimDown I'm sorry for the late response, but thank you! I wanna combine 2D pixel art with 3D art! I think there's a name for it but I can't remember... I really wouldn't wanna bother you but if you really don't mind, I'll try coming to you if I even get stuck with something. Thank for not only replying but offering help when I need it, that's very kind!
@@TheAimDown brother plz tell me about 3d modelling. Is this skill have alot scope and how much average time should it take to learn it properly for earning
Man, your work is awesome, incredible... I mean, I'm impressed... You gotta teach that to people. I'm just starting with blender and your work is insane! Please be a teacher
Just started today and felt motivated to see your progress
1 year and such works? fml this is pure dedication!
This was so cool and inspiring to watch. Thanks Bunches!!!!!!
wow that gameboy ad took me back in time. great work
Sweet! Very well put together. I want to see what else you come up with next!
some of the shit you've done after one month of blender usage is so much better than what i've done after half a year. this is outstanding
thank you very much! we all learn at a different pace, just keep at it!
@@TheAimDown that's definitely true, but your learning pace is basically lightspeed
I loved it! Impressive and exciting!
I loved the robots there are lit AF..! Nice work !
You're a lifesaver... Thank you so much
BROTHER, YOU ARE THE BEST!!! You oooh really helped me!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

How y'all doin?
Just started my donut. Thank you for some serious motivation to keep this up
Dope! Fun to watch and blender isn't easy or for the faint of heart!
Bruh! one word : Inspired! Blender has just been collecting dust on my computer forever, had no more interest until about 30 seconds into this video ... Now im gonna binge tutorials. Thx !
this progression is insane
Incredible since the start, jeez :o
you are a good example of what beginner can you just by learning from Blender Guru
Your submissions should have definitely been in the top 100 those are crazy dope
Thank you i really appreciate that!
Incredible work!! So awesome seeing your growth🖤 im still amazed at how you got your donuts looking so good mine look like plastic hahaha
Bro, you're a natural. You caught up so fast.
