Hi Russell, is there any way we can get in touch with you?
Yeah for sure, I replied to you on Instagram!
Deciding to change the face at the last minute was so great and it looked much better later
Haha thanks slamsal, I 100% agree, the first one was awful haha, I kept trying to convince myself it looked OK as I worked on the rest of the body but couldn't take it anymore haha!
congrats on being a finalist and winning some money in the colette campaign!
Thanks man!
I clicked on this to just quickly scroll through a bit, but ended up watching from start to finish. Not only that, but I learned quite a bit aswell. Awesome job man! ^^
Haha thanks for dropping by man! Most people only watch like 4 seconds of my videos so that means a lot lol! :D
@@RussellMidfield Hey no problem! And considering you've drawn my attention, I won't be letting your videos go just yet ^^
Haha thanks man! I appreciate it! 🙏
Seriously amazing
Thanks Cube!
I love the format! I watched the video straight through, next will fast forward to chapters as needed when I make my own sculpt.
Thanks Jim! Yeah I thought I'd do something a little quicker, some parts are definitely lacking in proper explanation haha, but at the very least, it may give you an idea of what to look for or explore in a certain stage of the workflow if it interests you. Yeah and gimme a shout when you finish your next character! I want to see it! :D
Wow looks really REAALLY good
Thanks George!
So addicted, watched from start to finish too, already learn a lot on this!! Amazing content like ALWAYS!! Thanks once more Rus!!
Haha thanks Gabriel! Yeah it's a nice little way to make a character relatively quickly! Well when you hammer out your next character tag me! 🙂
Brilliant. Thanks.
Yeah no worries Antar! I'm glad if it helped
OK, that’s what you call an Education in 15 minutes. 🙏🍷🎩🎩🎩🤔
Haha it was a lot at once its true 😄
@@RussellMidfield It’s great, bro. See it all in context in one big flow. Love your stuff. 🍷🎩
Thanks man! Yeah I thought it might be nice for some just to see all the steps laid out at once, its a little quick at some points haha but hopefully it might at the very least inspire someone to open up Blender!
Woot ! Actually you have the best character sculpting channel on youtube
Haha thanks Engimo! Oh you're too nice haha 😅 My channel sucks I know haha, but it's fun making videos!
@@RussellMidfield Most other channel either have time-lapse only or trailers for courses outside of youtube
That’s why Your channel surpasses any other channel with no equivalent in youtube
However if you make a paid course in the future I am in
Haha thanks man! I really appreciate you saying that! I love Blender and 3d art, love making videos, and love sharing information that I hope will be helpful for others just starting since we were all beginners at some point. I know I suck as an artist haha 😂 but where I lack in artistic ability I try and make up for with information haha
Thx man, I'm struggling to make my characters from start to finish. I usually stuck pretty deep at some point. There are lots of videos on youtube, but usually it's like a 2 hour of watch time. It's really time consuming. Watching your video helps me to keep myself organized and save me tons of time. Here is everything I need in just 15 minutes
Haha yeah I'm the same way man, I have so many half finished projects sitting on my hard drive, there always seems to be something that slows me down and makes me stop somewhere along the way. I'm glad the video helps!
Nice new format Russell! speedy but yet very educational too👏🏼 I like it haha
Thanks Tomoya! Yeah this one is a little quicker haha! It was a lot of fun to make, action packed! 😅
Dude, I swear You will blow up sketchfab if you post these models there
Haha really you think so? I've been thinking about putting some models up somewhere that people could use for games and stuff, sketchfab might be the place then!
@@RussellMidfield Yes, please put your models there, btw I have made my first sculpt (the bear) How can I share that to you?
Yeah for sure! Oh yeah just tag me somewhere! Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook work for me!
@@RussellMidfield I am sorry I can't do that my parents don't allow me to use social media :(
Oh darn! Well I'm sure it's amazing! When you're a little older and are allowed to get social media tag me then!
Thanks for the video. I'm a new blender user, and you are my god.
Haha lol 😅 thanks Baistas! You're way too kind haha, I am but a peasant in the Blender world haha
Yessss another video! Finally 😄
Haha thanks Niran! You're too nice! 🙂
Great video! Thanks for sharing your workflow.
Thanks WW!
Amazing tutorial, thanks for putting this together!
Thanks Francisco! I'm glad if it helped!
Okay some really useful tips in there but if you blink you do miss it. I'll have to come back to these piece meal
Haha yeah sorry, this one moves quick!
Very helpful tutorial. Thanks a lot
Thanks man! I'm glad if there was a tip or two in there along the way!
Love it, thank you for sharing my friend :)
Thanks for always dropping by Xuan! You're awesome haha :D
Thxs! Your videos are so instructive!!
Thanks diego! I'm glad it helped!
Thanks a lot man! You're just amazing 👌😁
Haha thanks Stefano! You're the man! 😎
Quality content! Subscribed and liked!
Thanks TheGreatFG! You truly are great!
This was really interesting and I feel like this will improve my own work during the next attempt, hopefully today. Just learning for fun :)
Will come back and watch if you make more sculpt basics videos because this was simple for me to grasp and follow.
Thanks Patrik! Yeah I have been thinking about doing a sculpting basics for beginner tutorial series, maybe make another simple, stylized character using a bunch of the sculpting tools and features, always a battle to find the time!
Thanks Russel, After long time. 😅
Viraj! My man! Haha its true, it's been a while, too long 😅 thanks for always dropping in man, I appreciate it! 🙏
And it took me nearly 3 hours to finish your base mesh video 😂😂
Haha damn! Well that means you got a lot of practice in and hopefully learned some stuff! How'd it turn out?!
@@RussellMidfield You replied! really appreciate that and not too bad actually after I'de finished being a little picky thanks for asking aha
Haha yeah I'm the same haha, I always end up getting too picky with my stuff and then just sitting, rotating around the model over and over when I can't get what I want 😅
@@RussellMidfield very relatable 😂😂
Haha 😅
Hi Russell , good tutorial bro!😎
Thanks Moylan! You're the best!
Thanks man! tagged on Instagram just finished with my Eminem Cartoon character!
Looks crazy man! Awesome job!
Super Steve Rannazzisi
Haha right on!
thanks for making this, it's interesting to see that there are quick ways to do things for smaller projects.
also when you used auto remesher, was it better than the instant mesh program?
Yeah no worries! Yeah in my opinion AutoRemesher is better than Instantmesh. It's both faster, and gives better topology. Instantmesh does give more options for customization though.
It'd be interesting to see what you can sculpt in literally 15min
Hahaha it wouldn't be pretty lol
Just under 5 hours for you = about 5 years for me.
Haha naw you can do it man! With a name like FuriouslyFurious, 4 hours 58 minutes!
@@RussellMidfield 5 hours and my super hero would end up looking like the hunchback of Notre Dame!
Haha that could be kind of cool! Set a timer one of these days and see what you can do in 5 hours, I'd like to see this hunchback some time!
Question… When your are doing smart uv I noticed that your main body look to have a small amount of faces than the main body you had after the model remesher program you use? Why dose it look like that , is it because you use decimate after the auto remesh version?
Oh that's because in the video that is the first time I ran Autoremesher. I actually ran Autoremesher a couple more times with different Density and Edge Scaling factors to see if I could get it a little less dense. I felt like the first time shown in the video, the polycount was a little too high for my liking although it probably would have been fine for this still pose application.
Hey man! nice video as always. What gpu do you use?
Thanks man! I use a Sapphire Radeon RX590 Nitro. A little old but it handles Blender and sculpting not too badly. What are you using?
@@RussellMidfield I have never built a computer, just asking because when its time for me to build one, I would get the right gpu.
Oh nice! Building a PC is a lot of fun, I love researching all of the components haha. The RX590 is a great card, a little old now, but still totally handles Blender well. The RX580 is pretty much the same thing as I understand it, and a little cheaper. Rendering in Eevee in the viewport is seamless, Cycles rendering is not bad, it can handle 4k textures well.
do you know why whenever I press shift+r the remesh grid appears but it doesnt remesh it, I have to do it directly on the remesh tab to make it work, and is weird because it worked just fine before I started following your process
Oh yeah, Shift +R adjusts the voxel size and then to actually change the size, you need to press Ctrl+R. Does that work?
@@RussellMidfield Damn it did work, thx !!!! didnt know it worked like that, really apreciate it!
Yeah no worries!
Good job, this is so good for learning and practicing. But for a project or work is way faster and eficient to use a human base mesh and sculpt on top of it, for everyone but specially for indie developers with a small team. Even top profesional artists uses base meshes to start their projects.
Yeah for sure! It was a lot of fun to make!
Hey ! I really like your tutoriala . I have some rendering problems can you figure it out? When I render in Cycles, denoiser smooths out my details like hairs and small textures . What should I do?
Are you using the denoiser in in Cycles settings or Denoising node in the Compositor?
@@RussellMidfield Cycles setting
Does using the denoiser node in the compositor give the same results?
@@RussellMidfield Not really, I will try that. I don't know anything about composting. I usually edit my renders with Adobe Lightroom.
Oh I see, yeah Lightroom is probably much better than Blender haha, but I like to use the Denoiser node to clean it up sometimes. Might work! Let me know!
Amazing video as always man! But, did you abandoned the unity tutorials :(?
Thanks man! Appreciate it! Haha no, got all the videos already recorded, just need to do some editing! I need to get back on them though it's true, I'll do the next one soon!
I have drawn superman many times for DC, and I am sure I'll draw him again at some point... Although now, I'll never be able to escape the idea that he actually has pecs for butt cheeks... thanks for that... :D
Haha lol! :D Oh god the nipples
nice workflow!, but lightning could improve
Thanks man! Yeah the lighting is pretty simple because suck at it haha 😄
Can u make tutorial for beginners?
Yeah for sure, I have some slower paced tutorials for anyone just starting out already, but I hope to make some more, better ones soon!
do you have a course for model and sculpt ?
Not yet, I'm working on one though! I'm trying to do a slow, more real-time course that will be about 30 hours or so on a stylized character like this, but it's taking forever haha. Hopefully soon!
@@RussellMidfield yeah
прикольны стиль получился
большое спасибо!
Hi! bro can u do this for full tutorial thanks
Yeah man for sure, no worries!
Thank you! You are very good. Is it possible to create a tutorial explaining how to sculpt a chibi character, 1st creating a base model and after that sculpting any anime character (naruto for example) through this model? But please don't publish a time-lapse video. I would like to learn step by step as you did in the bear tutorial. That was awesome! Thanks
Yeah of course! I really want to do an anime character, Naruto in chili style would be awesome! Yeah slower videos are better for sure
@@RussellMidfield Wow man! It's really awesome. I really appreciate that. But please, (really pls), if possible, do it the way you used to do the bear tutorial, in 2 steps: the first to build the base model (like this ibb.co/0mMvB8Z) and the second to build the character. I will be eagerly awaiting this tutorial. TYVM!
I added a comment a week ago but after that day I've checked the whole comment section 10 times to see if you replied But I didn't found my own comment... where is it??? I know you ate it russel
Oh that's weird! I try and reply to every comment but I must have missed yours, sorry about that! Did you have a question? Let me know I'll try my best to answer!
3:51 bro thinks hes homelander
Haha 😄
If you are trying to teach people, then this is not the right way and you are talking way too fast. You do a great job, I just don't get these type of videos. They are a waste of time to watch.
Yeah it's definitely quick haha! Sorry about that. I thought I'd try something different since no one really watches my other slower stuff haha lol 😅
@@RussellMidfield I just found out about you a week ago, I like your slow stuff, and I'm learning some things from you. I just don't like speed up videos, there are to many online, and no one can follow them if they wanted to try.
Yeah I totally understand, I'm not a huge fan of super fast-paced stuff either, and parts of this video I definitely felt were way too fast and poorly explained, but no one really watches my slower stuff haha lol 😅 so I thought I'd try something different. I'm working on a really slow paced like 30 part character series right now!
@@RussellMidfield I can't wait to see it!
Thanks man! 😊
