Trying out a new video format where I take a beginner's .blend and show how I would improve it. In this case it's made from scratch again, so it's also a tutorial :)

    i'd love to see an entire series of 'improving your art'

    For newbies who are discouraged I loved this quote" "If you just started learning piano you wouldn't rush out and book Carnegie Hall."
  • @mrmork600
    8:40 for anyone like me who couldn't find this option - make sure your render mode is set to cycles in render tab.
  • 13:49 Create a circle > Duplicate it 2 times (Shift D) > Arrange them in the same way as above > Select all , Right Click, Join > Select it again , Right click , Set Origin, Geometry to Origin > Add Screw Modifier > Follow the video.... I hope it helps someone.

    "Don't be disheartened, it takes time to be there" Not many 3D artists are as encouraging as you. Thanks!
  • @JaredOwen
    Andrew I love this format please keep making videos like this!
  • @jamjars5444
    I appreciate the video and in particular the end message. It's very easy to fall into agitation, envy and even despair at not being able to get to where you want to go as quickly as you'd like. Felt it myself and still do from time to time. You basically have to make peace with your level while at the same time have a healthy ambition to move forward, understanding that it takes time. As BG says, it's a journey, not a race. Good luck to all the Blenderererers out there in our great community.
  • @gillnabiel8385
    The end msg is so wholesome it actually warmed and brightened my day a little bit
  • @jibocado9393
    Amazing tutorial again, I'm surprised that Andrew took a sculpting approach as oppose to his usual box modeling style, I especially found it super interesting the way you made the seams, please make a tutorial on how we can render your beard next.
  • Photographers: spend hours trying to find the perfect spot, with the right lighting, the right textures,... 3d editors: just make a wall
  • Man, the way you provide constructive criticism is incredible. It's direct but empathetic and always geared at improvement. Well done. Thank you for the excellent instruction.
  • @JBothell_KF0IVQ
    I like the motivation and perspective at the end. Imposter syndrome can be really difficult to get over and can cripple anyone trying to learn a new skill
  • @yppep1282
    14:45 I am dying.... lol the SSS off SSS on. This is why I love you blender guru
  • @atomixfang
    2 am, perfect time to watch a Blender tutorial!
  • @mowieboy
    That last bit about realizing it takes time to learn and get better was really welcome. Too many people think they should be amazing after a few months. It’s not like that, and it’s good to tell people that it will take time, but that’s part of the process.
  • @sim2g
    I just realized I'm watching your tutorials as a form of therapy. Such a great job you do for the community, thank you!
  • @BenMcNelly
    You: "if you are just starting it would be illogical to think you can achieve results like this". Me: Challenge accepted. Me 8 Hours later: OK yeah, good point.
  • @SevgiZX
    Please do more tutorials like this or videos targeted towards beginners in general, I learnt a lot from this and it helps to get a glace at the mindset of a pro.
  • @DirtyHarryNl
    This is really brilliant stuff! Very impressive. Also what is very valuable is that even a pro like you have to look and try different methods to achieve things. Some tutorials are so 'perfect' it is like they do these kind of things in 3 minutes with their eyes closed. The honesty you put in your videos about the things you yourself have to figure out or things you did only recently figure out gives me the confidence that I can too learn this.
  • @LennonImagine80
    These tutorial videos are really helping me learn Blender. Keep doing what you are doing man! From someone who is hyper critical of them self and their projects, your words of encouragement are powerful. Thank you!
