Every time I start a new video, I first rebuild my donut from scratch with out the previous tutorials and its helping me navigate the interface so much faster. Highly recommend taking the extra time to do this because now I can build this donut in less then 4 minutes
I've been trying this too! It's sort of like a test to see how much knowledge I've retained, and it def feels like it's helping me learn rather than just going through the motions.
yeah it really helps
ive been doing this involuntarily blender will crash after a few hours of me on it and it hits me that i havnt save it at all this will be my 3rd donut today
It's a good strategy to learning since that repetition will help reinforce what does what.. I would do the same steps but putting my own spin on things so that instead of just making the same doughnut you will get out of that comfort zone and see how different approaches affect the outcome. Wanna see if I can do a simply ice cream cone or sundae after I complete it.
this is such GOATed advice. I was actually telling a friend that I was doing this on accident because my dumbass kept forgetting to save or would save an empty file over it. And I noticed I was speedrunning the donut up to the sprinkles and was like yolo let me just keep doing this until its second nature.
You're the bob ross of 3d, love the way you explain things
Such an accurate description, he really is doing god's work, i hope he knows many appritiates this invaluable lectures.
happy little donuts
You know, the saddest part about this video series is that it ends. We don’t hear much from Andrew outside of these tutorials for most of the year, and that’s sad, as I really enjoy his videos. It’d be nice if he made more advanced tutorials as well while waiting for new versions of Blender to release.
Totally agree
Yep. True
he's pretty active on twitter and he sends out his weekly email
yep could not agree more, would love some more of the medium level and advanced tutorial like he used to do, although i can understand why he does not, the donut is accessible to beginners and so a far larger amount of people while more advanced stuff takes longer to make and gets less views
thats true.
4 days in a row through this donut series, I think it would be my best looking donut.
no way, mine is the best!
That's encouraging! Glad your donut is shaping up ok 👌 Let's finish this thing.
we stay on the grind!!
mine be dripping evreywhere😭
It's my first day. I think I have created a mushroom. I can't remember how to get back to decrease the thickness of my "icing" 😅
I powered through 4 parts in 1 day and I'm a complete beginner and I understood! Thanks Andrew! You're a very good teacher.
Update: I stopped the project for now because my hard drive is getting full very quickly. I need to regroup and proceed another time. But it was so fun learning and understanding what things are.
me too
same bro
order a 256gb USB 3.0 stick, quick fix for low storage in older devces.
@@GrimeTimeGamer Hell, I'd recommend just upgrading the internal storage. These days for similar pricing you can just get better internal storage, and frankly, if files that are a few megs each make someone's storage get full very quickly, then they're in desperate need of more. I mean, sure, it'll take a few minutes to install, but from the sounds of it I'd be surprised if he's even working off of a 128GB HDD. 64GB might even be pushing it. Considering your main drive stores lots of temporary files, it can bloat on small drives to even use the web browser, so external storage is a bit of a band-aid for a more serious problem.
If someone's never done it before, upgrading internal storage may seem daunting, but unless it's for the express purpose of transferring files between devices, it's really the better way to go.
The donut tutorial from 2.8 is the only reason I stuck with Blender. Keep going it's 100% worth the learning curve!
Just starting Blender, how is that learning curve? What did it take for you to start creating and really enjoy it to its fullest (if you got to that point yet)?
@@Antemax07making my own stuff I guess. I like making abstract shapes and experimenting with nodes. Be it shaders or geometry
@@Antemax07 exponential learning curve from my experience. How are you doing now with blender?
At 13:55, The "Front Faces Only" brush setting doesn't prevent you from painting on the far side of the mesh because the solidify modifier has been applied. Every visible face is a front face, including the ones on the underside.
Ah! Thanks for that. I guess we could select all the inner faces and hide those in edit mode before going into sculpt mode.
I did donut 2.0 but not 3.0. I decided to watch (and eventually do) donut 4.0 as a means to learn the latest features in Blender 4.0
Exactly, but what it does is prevent u from painting on the back face of the face that you're painting. Meaning you'll only paint on the parts that are facing the camera without the paint going through the face to the other side of the same face.
I followed the tutorial step by step, so when i got to that part tye donut had already been deformed during the grab phase, and now i cannot change it back as it requires too many ctrl+z for the machine to save. What should i do
@@endrek4895 Smooth tool can sometimes fix things (for some reason one side of my icing bulged WAY to the side in a really ugly way while I was working on the other side, and I couldn't undo it), but depending on how bad it is, it may be a wasted effort.
Personally, as someone with only minor Blender experience, I'd see if I could smoosh it around with the smooth tool, and if it didn't look like I was making progress, delete the icing and start over.
Just a tip for people using the mask and not seeing the shadow: turn off x-ray on the top right corner or press alt+z. I was stuck on this for a few minutes
thanks i was gonna give up haha
you're a lifesaver!
DUDE THANK YOU
Thanks, i'm stuck here
i can only draw the shadow on the donut, not on the icing itself..do you know how to fix this?
I took a class for blender in highschool. now im getting back into it as a hobby and these tutorials are a life saver. my donut is looking good so far. im excited for part 5!
I'm old, I had no idea they had high school classes for 3d. that's awesome.
they actually do that holy shit
4 days into this donut tutorial, and I still haven't given up like last time I did a donut tutorial. I think Blender Guru is the best for starter tutorials.
I'm a professional 3D artist since 8 years and I know all the stuff he is explaining, but I still like to watch the series 😂
😂😂 wow
Lol
my donut looks so bad😭
It’s fine bro it’ll get better hopefully😭
Mine too
It's not supposed to be pretty at your first shot, tbh. You'll get better w time, just keep practicing
Just do it 30 or 40 more times. They will look great by the end. I promise. That's probably what he did to make this tutorial.
Mine has a big ass liquid drop
The more and more the series goes the better you teach you have as of now covered all the points that I had endured in the last series 3.0 massive respect Sir ❤
Hi Andrew, I tried to get started with Blender for quite a while now just to find myself utterly confused and overwhelmed because the tutorials I tried to follow were explaining everything very well and detailed but it was too much before jumping into a project. This made me struggle even to navigate in the software. Your guide is very easy to follow and I just wanted to say how much I appreciate that I can work along your explanations step by step without the fear of missing out on anything important. I really feel encouraged by this to be able to finally get a hang of it. Thank you so much for making this a very pleasant and comfortable learning experience!
bro you are absolutely right at 0:04, "there's always like a less video each you go down". but thanks for these awesome tutorials, I wish could at least buy a coffee or a beer.
I'm not gonna lie... This is the best donut I have ever made, by far. I'm thinking 3rd times the charm.
Thanks so much for going so slow and explaining everything in such detail. This is gonna be so delicious
looking that I might have to sell them at a donut shop. lol
Thanks so much for these tutorials.
That's encouraging to hear! Thanks
The reaction from Andrew has more likes than the comment
Ya. It's because I keep to myself and don't have anyone following me. I rarely comment.. At 50 I'm irrelevant and just here to learn new things I guess. lol @@Black_Oragne
absolutely goated tutorial, so intuitive and straightforward. no cringe attempts at adding comedy, no distracting theatrics. just a cold cut, content rich tutorial that genuinely helps anyone at any stage of learning blender still find something useful to learn. keep being the legend you are (as a side not i think the coolest thing you have is the captions that show what key you're pressing as you're doing things in blender)
omg the vertices after shrinkwrapping was euphoric
I started using Blender on my own for pleasure and hopefully for my studies/work, and your encouraging words at the 19mins mark are really appreciated. Thanks !
brooo you dont know how amazing you are. I had blendar sitting on my laptop since 2.8 and ive had no motivation since i didnt know what to do, your donut tut really be saving my life. Keep on going!
I haven't enjoyed sitting at my computer each evening more than I have these past four evenings working my way through these tutorials. So enjoyable, thanks Andrew!
Been interested by the idea of starting blender for some time. First started tutorials 2 hours ago with yours and they're amazing. Been quite lucky to hear about you from a friend and start that Blender journey litteraly the day you release this new series of tutorials
Andrew Congratulating those who don't give up is what brought me back,
Thank you.
2h non stop from 1 part of tutorial till this part, i have a nasty winter cold but i cannot stop with Blender! so interestinf and fun, everytime new cool feature gives me happy emotions
It's called dopanien
donut sales must go crazy high whenever this guy drops a new tutorial. i found myself inside the donut store today without even meaning to...
I love the way you explain things. I have tried to make sense of everyone's tutorials and as a person who has only photoshop experience, it's been very helpful to follow your example.
I appreciate that your teaching is easy to understand, and your encouragement means a lot. Thank you!
I've approached blender a couple of times in the past decade, but never before was the process so nice and smooth. Thank you very much!
Reconstructing myself in blender right now and the donut tutorial is the best way to start, thank you blender guru
when i was new i try the 2.79 version,with the old tutorial,and now i use 4.0,still using tutorial,but me now kinda more understand what to do and what the function,this guy lead me from the very bottom until now,what a legend we have in this world,Blender Guru the GOAT,thanks man, you are the best
Noice~ Just started my blender journey this morning with these awesome tutorials before realising I had to impatiently wait for the next vid to be released. *PLEASE IMPRINT YOUR GURU KNOWLEDGE INTO MY BRAIN!*
I've been using blender for over a year but I still learned something so thank you!
Ive been using blender for almost 2 and a half years, Im on the same boat as you 😆
Even though you taught me 3 years ago and since then I've made a decent progress, a donut tutorial is always the best way to refresh stuff. Giving explanations to what the tools do and why they behave a certain way is something I always admired and respected. I love that you ignore the impatient new generations and you're just taking your time to properly educate, makes me so happy! Thank you again!
What a nice encouragement to say if we make this far we are on a good path to be 3D artists. My donut is not half-bad at all! Thank you very much for the series. And now to keep learning!
Love this next stage of the course Sir. Can't wait for the full release so I can really dig into it!
I did it one time and I'm enjoying doing it again, and I feel like I'm doing better this time!
Thanks!
These tutorials have gotten funnier aswell. Honestly they get better every time.
It's rare that I can't wait for Monday to be here already. Part 5 is gonna be lit, what a way to start the week!
i'm here just to enjoy watching you teach. i don't do 3D anymore. just enjoying watching tutorials time to time. specially the Guru.
Very grateful that you took the time to update this tutorial once again. Thank you!
Thanks for the liquid gold quality of teaching. Its simply amazing.
His tutorials are always relaxing to watch.
The 2.8 tutorial helped me get a home office job as a archviz during the quarantine!!!
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS EVEN THOUGH I JUST STARTED WATCHING THEM HAHA you're very helpful man. Wanted to learn 3D modeling and had my eyes on blender for like a year, and just didn't know what to do. I finally am able to learn thanks to your guidance! Thank you!
Jesus christ why is this so difficult. My brush does nothing.
Don’t give up like I did I realized if I didn’t give up last year I would’ve been somewhat decent at blender
Apply the transformations!
Object mode > select icing obj > ctrl + a > all transformation. Now sculpt mode should be ok!
It's amazing how good this looks!!! Thank you! Excited for the next one!
Finally made it to Part 4 after 3 months of several starts, stops and restarts. Step 3 was making me a little batty because I could not get the icing mesh to look like the video. Finally figured it out when I went back and slowly did things step by step and of course it was user error. Still pretty useful in learning what can happen if something does not behave the way I expect it. I have tried the doughnut tutorial several times it the different version of Blender but never got past Step 5. This time around I do feel a lot more enthusiastic about seeing this through to the end. I've been doing two doughnut simultaneously. One following the steps exactly as laid out and another with my own spin on things.
Had to pause the video to comment about the "Why would you make use do this, Andrew?" moment with the shrinkwrap modifer. I always appreciate when teachers purposefully make a super common mistake to show us what to look out for. Massive thank you for this series.
Thank you for releasing these daily! You're the best!
You are cool man, thank you for this tutorial also in 4.0 i am trying to understand blender and you help me so much
The main reason my donut looks good is because of how well you explain things. Otherwise, I would have been stuck on part 2. Great video.
patting myself on the back now, im 2 hours in on my donut and have rewatched the videos several times. havent given up hope and im excited to see my finished donut hopefully before the end of the day.
I'm really loving this tutorial! Amazing teacher! 🤓🥳Excited for the next part!
I made it ! After YEARS that my friends didin't stop to tell me " you definatly should learn Blender to improve your editing and SFX skills"...I have to admit that after just a few hours and your tutorials, it is way more fun and easy than I thought. Shame on me !
By the way thanks for this series. Of cours I continue the trip 'till the end ! 🔥
Made it this far so far!
As someone with 0 (visual) artistic background, I wasn't sure if I would have any success in Blender, but so far your tutorials are very comprehensive and easy to understand! Hopefully I can make it through the whole thing and have something delicious looking at the end of it
Dude, thanks for cheering us on. You explain it too good
What an amazing thing you have made here, thank you. Great tutorials and just a joy of teaching. thanks for the help
Loooove these tutorials! And thank you for making a series for the new version of Blender!
This guy's smile made me didnt give up honestly
Great introduction to sculpting, interesting to go through. Gotta keep this ball rolling!
I finished part 3 just minutes before you uploaded this part, what a fun surprise
Thank you again for your amazing generosity!
Bro YOU ARE THE BEST TEACHER IVE EVER HAD, so easy to understand u and u so inspirational, love this vid bro
i am a few years in blender now, but still following this tutorial and finding new helpfull stuff :) it's gonna be my 4th donut haha
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I'm really enjoying the learning process and you're an awesome teacher. This is very helpful 😍
7:58 there is alternative modifier to subdivision surface, that allows to sculpt ON the modified surface. It's called MULTIRESOLUTION MODIFIER. It works very similar to subdivision as for useage, but allows for sculpting it without applying modifier. It also supports (if i recall) dyntopo
i like the way you explain everything, easy to understand, ngl i'm in blender 'cause of school before this, blender seemed very hard to use but now, hey it's easy and fun thanks to you :D
Loved the skills in this one, lots of fun slupting
This is such a fun way to spend my weekend!
@blenderguru Bro, I've been struggling with Blender on and off for 10 years. I mainly tinker with the Unreal Engine, but I realize that I can't get around Blender. Blender 4.0 and your donut really open up new worlds for me. Many thanks from Germany to Australia.
P.S. If you ever do a tutorial for a game-optimized medieval enterable house, I'll hang a photo of you on my wall :-)
I find that having some gradient with the mask helps it come out smooth with no adjustments
Watched the video twice before starting. On the third view, I followed along in Blender. Watched it two more times to cement to memory the process. In the last viewing, I stopped along the way to play with the different sculpting tools. I am completely enthralled. That was fun. Blender is very, very cool. There were some keystrokes being used that were not introduced in the video series, but I read through the shortcut cheat sheet and found them (shift + tab for example). Another great video. My donut is looking great. I am excited to post it to the Discord at the end of the video series.
At 13:17, for those who haven't set many levels of undo like me , you can delete the mask with ctrl + click.
I'm happy that the answers to the questions I have are always in the comments! Thank you.
@@phubans Peace and love man ♥
These series make me hungry af. Keep up the good work!
Man, this tutorial is like therapy!
"and that's how you create a skin leasure on a zombie" lol. I love the light-hearted way you teach such a complex skill! Thanks for the amazing tutorials!
Thanks for the good tutorial, i havn't seen a tutorial that good.
I can't stop, it's like binge-watching. 🥳
Thanks for your great videos i dont know what i would do without you!
it makes me smile thinking about the fact this time im following the videos at the same day they released : )
OK....this sculpting tool is the bomb. It's awesome!
These videos are great, struggled a little at the start because I was using this plugin drawing pad instead of a mouse but I've decided to stick with the mouse until I get a hang of things
I'm learning 3d modeling to make a game, and I'm starting out with these tutorials. very useful, easy to follow, and fun to do
@@Secret_Pilot1 thanks! I'm actually pretty far in the donut, but I dropped it to make a model for the game. I'm VERY happy with it, these tutorials got me really far
this series has helped me so much with developing food models for a game im creating, thank you so much for this! you're a hero. you earned a sub
You are creating a game 😮?
bro has a phD on donuts
Thanks a lot for this series! Just wanted to entertain myself with sculpting, but didn't want to dive in a complex stuff.
Your videos are so helpul. Thank you so much 🥲
this is a really nice tutorial i started it a few days ago knowing nothing and now I am a donut making pro
Thank you for the tutorial ^_^ this was very clear blender tutorial i've ever watched
Hey hi Thanks for your Videos i Learned so much about 3d already. your so good at teaching us the basic of blender
good stuff, i highly appreciate your work.
Never give up, never surrender. I've done lots of modeling using apps like Fusion 360. Blender is more an artistic form of Fusion IMHO. I really want to learn Blender but still find it overwhelming and confusing as there are controls all over the place in the app. Sometimes there appears to be no rhyme or reason where they put options in menus for functions/features. Best recommendation I have to others who want to learn Blender from this video is to watch them over and over until you get it. I personally watched parts 3-6 several times.🤔
This is why i love you tube, pausing and rewinding every time i start zoning out.
It's definitely not tedious man, thanks so much for this.
I keep making mistakes in between as I progress through the session. I simply run the video again and find out what went wrong. Really great help for a beginner like me. BIG THANK YOU TO ANDREW
Thank you so much for your great Blender-Tutorial-Series! Im coming from 3ds Max and Maya, and to be honest, ive had a hard time, to get used to the blender hotkey and navigation-system.. I mean it isnt a complete different pair of shoes, but also it isnt that easy. But thanks to your great tutorials, i think i can learn it 😊😊👍👍
It’s nice to see the pitfalls and solutions
I use these videos to keep me sober. I need. It’s a need. Thank you
Title of the series: "Beginner"....
Me: 4 years of blender and still learn a lot of things watching this series. Really cool this Donut
If you ever feel useless just remember that there's people out there who dislike Andrew's videos
