I DID go to fashion college and spent 20 years in the industry, You definitely have a vast knowledge of sewing details. I am super new to MD (1 month in) and This is completely different from using illustrator/photoshop (what most of us use to design). Your videos have helped me IMMENSELY! thank yoy!
I also studied fashion and this is useful. although I wish I could just add darts anywhere I wanted and not have to worry about the seam. maybe one day we will have a 3d rotary loom that could weave bespoke shapes.
I appreciate everyone who everyone who watches and comments, I have made a link if you'd like to donate. ko-fi.com/jetsetgeometry I'll keep making videos and sharing what I know, and they will always be free. When I first started learning 3d art, I was totally broke (like most artists) but I very specifically remember the people who would put out free tutorials, and I was always so thankful for them. Without those free tutorials back then I absolutely would not be where I am today, so I want to do the same. Every time I upload a video it's overwhelming to see how many people want to learn, and you're learning from me. It's... really cool. Thanks :)
i just wanted to join the chorus of praise to say this is absolutely one of the best possible entries to the world of not only Clo3D, but the critical fundamentals of pattern drafting, as well. 2 hours is a long time to sit down and watch what is essentially a lecture on making clothes, but i find myself watching this repeatedly, and discovering new nuances as i grow my understanding during my own practice. more than once i've found myself curving a side seam while whispering, "it's just a dart... they're all just darts..." in wonderment. all this to say, creators like you are what keep the University of UA-cam™alive and well.
Although the creator may no longer be active on UA-cam, I wanted to express how much I enjoyed this tutorial - it's truly the best! As someone who works with multiple 3D software programs, I found it incredibly valuable.
im not gonna lie this is hands down the best beginners tutorial I've seen 0 wasted time 100% pure knowledge no fumbling or distracting inner commentary that usually balloons out the run time of most tutorial videos thorough explanation of the process and how it makes sense to you. Thank you for sharing this
I can’t thank you enough because I was just getting started to learn Clo3D but was overwhelmed by the fact that I do not know anything about patterns!!! But your video just made my day and way! Thanks a million !!🤝🏻
I have never understood darts. No matter how many tutorials I looked at and what I read they didn’t make sense. In 30 minutes you explained them so well and I cannot thank you enough. You are absolutely incredible!!! I can’t wait to watch the rest of this video and all of your others!!!
This basically sums up every mistake I ever made and even shows how to fix it. None of the three MD courses I bought and followed so far showed this invaluable basic knowledge. Thanks Daniel, I’m a subscriber since you only had 100 subs or so
I think you know this, but this is beyond valuable ! I watched a handful of tutorial by other people but had nooo idea why they did what they did. I feel so much more confident about trying things now !! Thank you !
This should be standard MD/CLO3D training for everyone, thank you so much - it helps the fitting / refitting, creation of patterns towards a character and understanding of the why followed by the how to achieve the what. Only downside is that I immediately saw all the changes I need to make to all the garments I created to far to make them better (ok, that is an upside, too).
I did go to some expensive fashion schools and worked in the industry for some time and wow nobody was really able to teach dart manipulation this effectively. Really wish we had clo back then. Thanks for this awesome tutorial mate
I've been working in the industry with MD for 6 years now, and this is hands down the BEST MD channel I've seen, covering so much important stuff that is usually ignored or glossed over. Many thanks!
Hey Daniel. After learning environment design and basically the whole pipeline, I'm learning characters and sculpting for the second month now. Clothing for characters is one of the most important things in this process and learning from You is one of the best things that happened to me on my journey. Thanks a lot for your quality opinions and courses/tutorials, keep up the good work! Love to mention You when people asks me where I've learned some tips, tricks and overall workflow.
Hi Daniel! This is the most valuable MD tutorial I ever saw! I learned to use the tools in MD earlier but I never understood the basics of darts, curvatures and angles. I struggled a lot with figuring out what to do and I was thinking to apply to real-life sewing courses to understand these. Now you showed almost everything! Thank you very much! :) Can't wait to make some new garments with this newly learned knowledge. Btw, I'm thinking to switch over to Clo3D. The fullness tool looks like something I always needed but never knew about :)
Thank so much for this tutorial, there's fundamentals here I've never seen covered or explained so clearly anywhere else and provide an amazing conceptual framework for really understanding what's going on in patterns. I feel energized and excited by what I learned here and how some of my gaps in understanding that I didn't even realize I had now feel addressed. Will be recommending your videos to anyone I know who uses MD, and am eager to watch more and follow your work, thanks again!
Thank you, Daniel! My husband is a 3D artist. I showed him your channel, and he was so happy. He said this is the best tutorial he’s seen - including Gumroad and Artstation ones that he paid money for. This helped him a lot!
I really didn't want this video to end. I learned SO much and learned how to fix so many of the issues I thought were unsolvable at my skill level (which is, complete beginner). Thank you so much for putting the time in to make this.
Same here. This man is treasure. Every single thing he does in his videos is legitimately helpful. How many people actually explain how to make a skirt look evenly straight from front to back? Or even how and why the folds should look when a character moves in the outfit? I'm sad that he can't make videos anymore because of his career, but he definitely deserves to be paid well for his knowledge. I'm so grateful that he even has videos up to show us his knowledge.
Thank you very much for your work! This is the best video I have ever seen. I can't express how happy I am. Thank you Mr Daniel! I'm sorry, English is not my native language.
This video was extremely helpful, thanks for making it! I'm so thankful you explain the "why" of all these pattern elements. My mind was blown when you showed the purpose of the bodice front dart is to essentially make a cone around the apex. No other video I've seen explains that, not even non-digital patternmaking videos. Making clothes for 3d models is exciting on its own, but I think Clo3d is also a great tool to help me learn how to make clothes in real life. Thanks again!
I've watched all of your videos (except streams, cause they are too long for me to watch), and I can say this - your channel is the best source of knowledge on Marvelous Designer (or Clo3d) out there, free or paid. And I've watched a lot of the stuff on that topic, so I know what I'm talking about. Thank you for your great work and keep on going!
This is the BEST tutorial I have ever seen, you are absolutely the BEST!!! I really enjoy your videos and am immensely grateful to you for sharing your incredible knowledge. I hope to see a new video on your channel sooner or later. Thank you!!
one day i was searching to learn MD..from nowhere I got your channel like god was suggesting me..son this is the right way...I am so lucky in short period of time I learn a lot from you..thanks a lot...I have no words..really thanks a lot....
The changes you're talking about at the 42 minute mark WILL change things in the finished garment because fabrics have grainlines and often prints on them - how you lay out the pattern determines how a piece is cut with respect to the grainline, which changes the drape and behavior of the fabric.
This is exactly what I needed to know and understand and you explained it so well. Thank you so much. I have enjoyed all your MD tutorials. I greatly appreciate your time and effort in sharing your experience.
thank you Daniel, i hope you can realize how helpfull those vids are! I'm currently based in Brazil and working on a project that can lead me to biggest steps like SPFW, and you are being a pillar so that can become true, im forever gratefull
Thank you for doing this Daniel, I've been looking into learning how to make digital clothes and you have been my main source of information as I'm starting to pick marvelous designer up. I really appreciate that you take the time to cover the fundamentals of making clothing and not just cover how the tools work, which I feel is the most important block of information when it comes to building a good understanding and approach towards clothing creation. Hope you have a great day, cheers!!
Thank You so much! If only you could make a complete detailed course on MD and explain everything like you do here I would be the first person to buy it. You have a gift. Please do make the course long and detailed and don't skip anything Explain all the keys you are pressing. The course should be going from novice to advance. I'm ready to buy.
I'm a bit late to the game but I just started with MD and found this a solid intro. Took me a while to get through bc I practiced almost everything in the video before progressing. Long way to go but already the odd shapes of patterns begin to be less alien-looking.
Again - thank you for this amazing explanations... I never had anything to do with sewing and sewing patterns and your video really closes a big gap between these "how you use patterns for real life sewing" tutorials and the question how you use these pattern in a 3d programme like MD.
Many thanks Daniel for this course. As always full of good advices, tips and tricks. You have a definite talent for teaching and passing on knowledge. What people may not realize is that it took you a lot of your own time to build that knowledge and your are spending even more of your time teaching (and for free!) Really grateful. Thanks again
just pausing the video @ around 28 mins when ur getting into the recap. Dude. Ur really REALLY good at explaining things efficiently. aight back to the rodeo.
i'm so glad you're back. your videos have been so helpful in learning this program. thank you for everything you do and thank you for sharing this info.
Thank you a million,billion,your videos are so amazing,I love them all!I stopped liking Disney,since I understood they were so selfish to make you take the rest of your videos down,why,what would that hurt them,selfish bastards. I wish you all the best of course,you deserve the best!
Thank you very much for this video! I did go to Fashion school and have to say a few things. I know you said that you may say incorrect things and I dont want to correct, but give a few "tips" I'd say. And yes you can say and do whatever you want, but maybe it will help some people. • Horizontal measurements are called width, not length. The length is vertical, and by saying it correctly you directly know what's meant. • Darts aren't designed and put in the place that fits the model the best. Darts are a part of the design and have specific places(where they make the piecebest fitting), which vary by a few cm(or whatever length and width). The length and width vary depending on the measurements of the model. Fashion exists since centuries and therefore there are patterns that fit the best and make it easier for creators to create fitting clothes. I recommend every person that spends more time with creating clothes to look into some pattern books😊
48:30 OMG I tried making a shirt like that following Flipped Normals' tutorial on it and tried to fit it to a female mannequin, I had pointy edges and it got me so frustrated. *GENUINLY THANK YOU*
Really helpful stuff right here! Thank you Daniel, it's much clearer now how this things work 💙 p.s. It was a surprise to see some patterns from Soviet magazines/Russian forums :)

20 minutes in, and it's taught me stuff that could have saved me hours in the past...
I'm in the same situation, wondering every why other materials I've learned are even not close this one

ppl: everything really is a dart!
Daniel: always has been.

This is one of the most illuminating videos I've ever seen. Really helpful for understanding patterns and contouring in a simple, visual way
Thank so much for this tutorial, there's fundamentals here I've never seen covered or explained so clearly anywhere else and provide an amazing conceptual framework for really understanding what's going on in patterns.

Came to learn basics about Marvelous Designer...left with a strong respect for darts, curves and angles. Amazing tutorial! Thank you so much.
This was such a pleasure, I watched in one go completely rapt, thank you Daniel! ❤
2 hours of useful and exciting knowledge without any unmeaningful pause, man your voice is like music
just within the first 30 minutes of this video, it's a must watch for people learning MD. Thank you dude
I really didn't want this video to end. I learned SO much and learned how to fix so many of the issues I thought were unsolvable at my skill level (which is, complete beginner). Thank you so much for putting the time in to make this.

Thank you, Daniel i finally understood something about darts and curves
The best one I have seen till now. I cant thankyou enough for making this video! Great work!!!

That chapter with curves and angles was amazing. Super usefull! Waiting for more of your tutorials, buddy.
I never attended my classes because of morning classes. But i learnt more in this video conceptually than 2 years in college. I love you 🥺
I'm a bit late to the game but I just started with MD and found this a solid intro. Took me a while to get through bc I practiced almost everything in the video before progressing. Long way to go but already the odd shapes of patterns begin to be less alien-looking.

thank you so much, that was unexpectebly much more usefull than lot of other tutorals or coureses
just pausing the video @ around 28 mins when ur getting into the recap. Dude. Ur really REALLY good at explaining things efficiently.
aight back to the rodeo.
i'm so glad you're back. your videos have been so helpful in learning this program. thank you for everything you do and thank you for sharing this info.
This guide was insanely helpful, thank you so much for the effort and your time making this.
Thanks a lot, as for me it`s the best tutorial in the field of 3d patternmaking👕💛👖
Thank you a million,billion,your videos are so amazing,I love them all!I stopped liking Disney,since I understood they were so selfish to make you take the rest of your videos down,why,what would that hurt them,selfish bastards. I wish you all the best of course,you deserve the best!
We miss your videos, Daniel!
I stumbled among this video and I must say, I am impressed with the detailed content you deliver. It's sad that you stopped making videos.

I love how you humble looking to the camera say "Hello" )
This is the best video I have seen about patternmaking and marvelous designer. please make more videos
Thank you!!! This is so cool. You're widening how I think about pattern making.
I agree with Jaakko, you’re a wonderful teacher.
WOW this is the first time someone has explained the logic to me!
Very thoughtful and precise explanation. It helped me a lot as a virtual clothes beginner. Thank you a lot🙂
A true masterclass, thank you ❤
Dude this is mindblowing and super useful! thanks so much!
You're awesome, dude. Your content is pure gold!
i was so disappointed to find i already liked the video when i went to like it again mid-watch :P
This has been super helpful, if you ever drop a full course on fashion design would love to buy follow it.

This was truly useful for me!! It helped me to understand a lot of things, thank you for your work!
