Brilliant! This is what we have all been wanting: a real tutorial, no hot air, no empty talking heads, just a long list of real examples shown step by step.
Many days have I searched these wretched UA-cam gallows in search of but a simple clear concise tutorial of basic plasticity or blender knowledge and alas I hath found thee.
Absolutely love these tutorials! Only problem I ran into was with Exercise 13. I think it may be the version I have, but I only have the Unwrap Face command - but not the Wrap Face command. Also, when I unwrapped the face of the cylinder, it created a new sheet instead of two curves... I only bought the indie version, so I'm thinking this may be a limitation.
This is a great tutorial to use after you've learned all the "newbie" stuff. He goes kinda fast but each model only takes < 1 minute. I suggest watch each model, then pause the video and see if you can duplicate what he models for that model. If not, go back to the start of that model and watch it again. By the 20th model, I was modeling the object before watching the video for that model. Then I'd go back and watch how he did it. Great way to practice what you've learned. Just to let you know, there are several ways to achieve the same model. Practice, Practice, Practice..... Repetition is the only way you learn these tools. Too many newbies wanna start out modeling an F16 or some Star Wars space craft. I've been modeling with 3DS Max for 15 years. Plasticity is a DIFFERENT animal. Wish I had Plasticity 15 years ago!!!!!!
Plasticity is a beautiful piece of software and this is a fantastic tutorial for it. I only wish that plasticity had something like sketches akin to Fusion360. Plasticity is the only CAD program (other than FreeCAD, which isn’t awful but not great either) that doesn’t require a subscription. I know it’s designed mainly for digital assets, but I do hope they keep implementing more traditional CAD design tools for those who like to fabricate the parts they design. Luckily for me, I do both!
I am with you on this. I also do both and this is a great option for me just not there quite yet. I just purchased MasterCam trial but when it runs out who can afford $8K for the darn thing. I am contemplating purchasing this just to help out. $300 is a little high for the Studio package but worth it if it grows
Amazing amazing video! thank you so much, I wish more people made videos like this! Seeing someone familiar with the program go through a lot of different examples of solving different problems with different workflows is exactly what someone new to the software is looking for.
This is amazing. Bite sized lessons for pros and noobs alike. Thanks! I'm just getting started and I've never done any 3D modelling like this before. I have used Revit and ETABS a lot but these are very different. Confusing at first but I'm getting the hang of it.
You are a very good narrator. Your video editing, the length of the video is very well thought out...great. A very good resource to learn Plasticity 3D. Thank you very much for the lessons you prepared, I benefited a lot.
I need some help with 13. It seems they changed the Unwrap Face function because I get a sheet instead of the curve guides. Seems like there is also no Wrap Face 🤔
Man, you are awesome these are easy to follow, I was looking for a easy to understand 3d program and this is just awesome, your teaching is fast, clean but easy to understand well done my man. Keep it up. I subbed.
Thank you for the amazing tutorial. I do not quite understand the Move the Duplicated Circle to the other side. What is the shortkey please? I duplicated the circle but the one did not snap to the other side.
Thank you for practical goods examples! Please, if I would like to create some of designed products from wood, iron, I should need dimmensioning, print 2D viewpoint and list of parts (objects has to be individual objects, no grouping).. Unfortunately nobody is presenting this, so it is not possible? Or need some another program for this production? This is crutial need for me, if I start to dive in... Even I already bought it, I do not want to be in situation, that 3d model will be in Plasticity and rest "on paper"..😔 I need cutting plan, then it could be super useful..
Exercise 11 did not work for me, up to the bottom boolean. The bottom boolean does not seal the interior, not sure why this is happening. Then the other side of this item does not reflect the right side. So in my decades of modeling I did it, I duplicated the larger boolean to either side, and then did the smaller boolean all the way through, it worked.
Hope on the Pixel Fondue Discord and share your file. We can have a look and see what the issue is. I'd also suggest to try from the start again and see if you get same results
@Pixelfondue I tried a few times, but I am happy with the final result. The first larger boolean worked like it should have, but to get the symmetry, I saw I changed the workflow to make it right.
where have you been all my 3D amateur life? Question: Does this pair or compare well in function or file sharing with a printer like a Bambu printer? maybe one more question: do you have any experience with Bambu soft as compared to Plasticity, which can you recommend? Bambu's? or this one? lol lotta questions
Great video! FWIW, 13 no longer works - Unwrap Face creates a sheet, not curves. Even replicating the curves using the sheet edges doesn't work - when you select the curves and cylinder face, Wrap Face isn't available as an option.
Is there a tutorial that explains the tools? No idea how that center arc tool is supposed to work, just keeps pulling corners. 45 secs into the tutorial and I'm lost.
Great tutorials but i cant for the life of me complete exercise 6 properly. The curve that bends inwards always causes double lines at 1 of the circles, which causes funky geometry after the boolean join, which makes it so im unable to bevel the part.
If Plasticity just had feature tree to undo or redimension a solid (real parametric), then this would be a break in the 3D modeling softwares in the market. Great video btw
my god at 4min I don't get how the rectangle I build does't succeed to cut, otherwise everything is so clear and well made even for such the noob I am thank you
@@Pixelfondue oh yeah, first time touching plasticity and I thought this video was for beginners, apparently not, I guess I'll come back after some basic tutorials
I do appreciate your effort.. but there's alot to be said about confirming commands. Otherwise this is just demonstrating the tool and not instructing.
Brilliant! This is what we have all been wanting: a real tutorial, no hot air, no empty talking heads, just a long list of real examples shown step by step.
Enjoy!
@@Pixelfondue - Agreed. To make it even better, edit out the repetitive intro for each segment.
@@Suge212 Well, it tells you what the video is about so you can skip if you want
Many days have I searched these wretched UA-cam gallows in search of but a simple clear concise tutorial of basic plasticity or blender knowledge and alas I hath found thee.
Glad you like the format/content... lots to explore! Enjoy!

The wrap face command has been replaced with deform command.
Yup milky is right, i was able solve it with deform. I referenced this video: ua-cam.com/video/pUUXY4DltE8/v-deo.html
thank you both!

Thank you for holding my hand through this journey from 3ds Max to Plasticity. great work, not a lot of guessing that often times with tutorials.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was worth buying plasticity for! Awesome tutorials
Glad you like them!

I would recommend submitting feature requests, The developer is constantly adding features and seems open to feedback.
@@Pixelfondue Great idea!

Amazing work as always, guys! I recently bought Plasticity coming from Modo and that's all thanks to you.
Enjoy!
Genius! A Great Software for A Beautiful Mind
Your Tuts are awsome! Simple, Concise, and Precise
Thanks. Glad you like the content.
@@Pixelfondue yes I do. It's just amazing what we can do with just basic shapes... Circle, Square, Triangle, a segment, easy peasy
thank you! really enjoy the tutorial so far

A compilation that we need. Thank you!
Glad you like the compilation.
Even the creator of Plasticity has not done as good a job of helping us understand the software as this dude has.
I need some help with 13. It seems they changed the Unwrap Face function because I get a sheet instead of the curve guides. Seems like there is also no Wrap Face 🤔
Great skills! It opened up my mind to how to use this software. Thank you for the very practical video.
You're very welcome!

I know them all and they are the best exercises that you can start with, and in no time being a YAM YAM pro.
Thanks!
Best ever tutorials.
Thanks! Enjoy!
amazing tutorial that teaches you so effortlessly
Glad to hear that!
you are a very good teacher.
super nice compilation. thank you.

Do you mean mirror?
awesome !!, thanjk you some much for sharing your expertise

Wow, thank you
How do you get the 3d view, mine just has top view with no other options?
Great video you rock!
Thanks so much!

Excellent. Best tutorials.
Glad you like them!
Do you know by any chance what could make it so that when I press shift it doesn't create a guide?
nvm, found that it's because i was holding shift and not just tapping it

@@Pixelfondue I think it's now been replaced with Deform :)
Beautiful teaching, these should be mandatory for all beginners. Question: how do you snap rotate aka rotate by determinate increments?
Got it, it's Control ^ on Mac.
Glad you found the solution!
Is there a tutorial that explains the tools? No idea how that center arc tool is supposed to work, just keeps pulling corners. 45 secs into the tutorial and I'm lost.
There are videos for all tools.... Here is one about the circle and arc tools ua-cam.com/video/QaNMygwnnXY/v-deo.htmlsi=WODo25pE4I01lU-7
I actually found it, you have pretty much every tutorial for everything. Thanks!
@@blahblah3403 Welcome
good tutorial...maybe slow down a bit for beginner...i will subscribe plasticity for easy to use and print 3d
Glad you are enjoying Plasticity. It is a great modeling tool.
When's Floyd going to show us the quick and efficient way to turn complex plasticity models into useable, lightweight, UV'd game and film assets?
I was wondering the same.
ua-cam.com/video/z3Yo2etMLSI/v-deo.htmlsi=G70LOCbvD8ngpqYJ
Almost what u need.
Alexei Kolb has a tutorial on that
This video should be integrated as F1 button in plasticity as Help page !
Thanks. I offered the use all of the videos when they were first created and there was no Manual/Help File. Offer still stands.
Is that a Tachikoma at 0:07?
Yup! Ghost in the Shell for the win!
Hey , what video recording software you're using that record keyboard shortcuts?
I use Camtasia for all of the Vaughan in 60 Seconds videos.
Great tutorials but i cant for the life of me complete exercise 6 properly. The curve that bends inwards always causes double lines at 1 of the circles, which causes funky geometry after the boolean join, which makes it so im unable to bevel the part.

Where is the wrap face command. I have the unwrapped face command but not the wrap face command. I I'm using the 30 day trial version.
It's like watching magic
my god at 4min I don't get how the rectangle I build does't succeed to cut, otherwise everything is so clear and well made even for such the noob I am
thank you
These are awesome but a bit too fast for me to try and follow. Love your work though.
Pause as needed... and rewatch as many times as needed.
I wish you'd do the same for MOI3D ;-)
Havnt used MOI3D but will investigate it
@@Pixelfondue take a look at MOI 3D for beginners #5 All the tools explained 2/2
Magnificent
Thanks
0:01 This is how Arlo would look if he smoked 2 packs a day.
Who is Arlo?
I dont belive my teacher is MUPET!
Never knw where info will come from :)
I hope they make you a partner in the company cuz you selling that shizzz b-b-baby!!!
Don't forget to like the video, then add a filet to all edges
Tachikoma model on the first example. I am in :)
Nice... GITS is one of my favorites
I love plasticity
Lots to love about it!
30sec in and im completely lost...
Maybe start with an intro to plasticity video by Greg then attempt the modeling exercises
@@Pixelfondue oh yeah, first time touching plasticity and I thought this video was for beginners, apparently not, I guess I'll come back after some basic tutorials

I do appreciate your effort.. but there's alot to be said about confirming commands. Otherwise this is just demonstrating the tool and not instructing.
Noted
Jesus man, slow down, ha ha. Thanks for the video , it it diamond in the pile of youtube shit.
Amazing tutorials, but please dont put the intro into each part :)
The Pixel Fondue intro was cut for each part - but Floyd was kept because he tells you what the tutorial is going to cover.
Yeah Floyd was cute the first two times and then very quickly gets old 48 times yowz.
Floyd here...(just kidding)@@EPeltzer
“Simple” You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. 😂
Lol... Nice use of that phrase... Great movie
