I Forced Myself to Learn Blender - 100 Hour Progress
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 лис 2024
- Don't learn Blender. It will consume your life. I spent so much time learning to 3d model and animate in Blender. I have always wanted to perform and act in my live streams, and after watching Dr. Disrespect perform in his Blender scenes, I knew I had to learn. So let me know, was it worth it for me to learn Blender? Should I keep making blender scenes as a beginner?

"Hour 50: I realized all my stuff was garbage" - "Hour 97: disaster" -- this proves your story is true. Congratulations -- your end scene came out great !! I've been at it for 2 years now on weekends, and nowhere near that.
I am sure that you are way better than me. I am glad that you liked the video!
if you spent half an hour each weekend day you'd have around the same time clocked in minus the massive time loss included in setting up and leaving every single time.
That’s sad :(
@@alex.g7317 wot
@@OskarSvanI'm not wrong.
6:00 in and it hurts me to hear that nobody in any of those threads told you that you can recover lost files by going: file>External Data>Find Missing Files and selecting the folder where your textures were stored. Also, a psa to make it so you can move your files without corrupting everything: File>External Data> Automatically Pack Resources. This way any texture files you add will be saved as a copy in the data of your .blend file.
Yeah, I tried that but it didn't work. I think some key files were deleted along the way.
I literally watched this video, downloaded Blender and spent 3 hours learning the basics. Now I want to make a Blender background of whatever comes out of my imagination. thank you so much for the motivation!
That is awesome! You should share what you make in my discord. I would like to check it out.
@@AdamBaird I'm just getting started switching over to Blender from Maya 3D and its been a few years. I gotta say, its bizarre how much is different between the programs. Both are super complex, but blender seems to be a lot more user friendly. Some friends of mine and I are working on a game together and I thought I could help with some creative inspiration. Having some 3D Modelling/Animation experience does help, but it is taking some time getting reacclimated. I look forward to seeing what you create!
The best thing is that i's a very high skill ceiling. If you like Blender, you'll spend decades progressing and you'll never get bored.
Nice work!
@@akitaris326 whats the game
@@juandiegoosorio6009 how are things
This is amazing - I think you may have just created a learning and productivity hack.
Do a 100h project - try reach the deadline and if you like it - keep learning - if you don't - move along to the next thing.
You bring up a good point! I did these 100hours over the coarse of a month. I think the key is to not burn yourself out.
/saving comment...
My issue is that I need to have some kind of practical project to get myself into anything. If I don¨t have a set goal of what I want to do with the skill, it is hard to grasp what would I want to actually learn and therefore I lose interest immediately.
this ocured to me as well
@@MikaTuukkanen The problem is when you are learning, nothing is practical. You are a beginner, you will not be making anything practical and useful until you have most the basics down.
Good progress. FYI, if your camera is static with just a few moving elements, you can save a bunch of time by learning about render layers and compositing.
Yeah I started experimenting at the end with that. Rendered the desk and computer separate from the rest.
Man this seems like my new passion
@@sandsgrainofsand5320 cool!
Came here to say that.

First hour: first steps into the world.
from hour 50: *literally transcending to godhood*
Haha
This is amazing I didn’t realize you were going to insert yourself into the scene as a stream overlay! That’s awesome
haha yep! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
@@AdamBaird When I realized that's why you spent all that time on learning that stuff it made me laugh lmaoo. Thank you for posting this tho it's very inspiring and I'm trying to get into game development and dreaded tryna relearn blender (I learned how to use it very poorly years ago) what kinda things should I look up to make sure I'm modeling correctly? Again this video was very inspiring man thanks!
@@Smilxy-music It’s one of those random but useful things to learn
Honestly inspiring 👍
Thank you! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
Yes, I agere!
The finished product was pretty cool, and "Bad Apple" fit surprisingly well with the scene. Seems like gaining the skills is worth it in the long run.
The ultimate Bad Apple mix! Thanks for watching until the end! Yeah, I am pretty happy with the progress.
If that was done completely without no prior knowledge of Blender then that was very nice and yes, you should definitely continue developing your skills in Blender.
Nice job!
This really was my first time touching blender. Thanks for the nice comment!
@@AdamBaird And Maja? Or some other program?
@@AdamBaird in 10 years of my work in maya, houdini and then in 2020 i tried learning free version software (blender)
not gonna lie u did fantastic job for someone who had no prior knowledge to 3d modelling software. if you ever continuing your tutorials in blender i would suggest get a graphic tablet (keep the mouse as well) learn sculpting i feel like you will enjoy sculpting just like you loved the boolean.
@@theeddytor3490 Because YT tutorials exist. It's very easy to learn out of prog and then apply when you get back to the station.
I'm about to put 100 hours in too now and see.
Nice Job!
Blender tip for saving files:
Open up Blender, go to file, and then external data. There you can click on automatically pack resources. This will save all of textures and other exteral data in the project file, making reorganizing your files a lot easier.
Yes, but you need to do this toward the beginning of your project or else it might not work. I tried activating that option after everything was done (right before the export) and I just got errors.
@@AdamBaird I had this same problem for a Star Wars short film I made and I had cut the links between every single one of my hundreds of textures and relink them. It was a pain but I’ve learned my lesson
@@AdamBaird Also if you lost the textures I think external data has an option to search for textures in your files
Don’t just say “got errors”. What were the exact errors? For example, narrow it down to particular files being missing, and fix those.
@@AdamBaird (If still relevant) Directly under the "automatically pack" option there is another option called "pack all into blend" which can be used to put everything that the Blender file already uses into the blend file.
I finished the donut tutorial and felt great, took a few weeks off to work on 2D animation stuff, and forgot 90% of the 3D stuff lol. Time to make a new donut. This was so cool to see. Glad you were able to get the textures working again.
Yeah I for get everything between projects too. It comes back quickly.
From Blender Guru?
@@zoterodisuke4398 yup. The donut tutorial is the best if you wanna get an idea for how and why you use something. Not just “use this cuz I said” he tells you why. So worth doing.
@@nikonikosensei6682 I really want to know how you learn like your process of learning, cuz I'm trying to but not sure how can I make it the most effective way to learn.
@@zoterodisuke4398 I’m not sure I’m the best person to ask lol. I’m still struggling to remember everything, but at the end of the tutorial he says to make like 5 or 6 different donuts from memory. So watch it a few times, follow it, maybe play with a different version at the same time, watch it again (the video you’re on) I try to take notes and review them, rewatch them video, review again. It’s likely you’ll forget a lot, it’s how our brains work. The more important your brain thinks it is, the more you’ll remember. Enjoying the process is arguably the most important. Mixing up tutorials, too. So you don’t get burned out. There’s so much I wanna learn, I forget to review what I’ve learned before. Lol.
I have nearly a thousand hours in blender and I’m going to say you’re amazing. You picked up so much so quickly that usually takes people so much longer to. The final result was great and you could really see the detail, especially in the computer. Good luck in your journey
Wow, thank you! I bet you are way better then me... I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around, because the show is just getting started!
@I am me • 25y ago Soley based on the free human model id say it was a How to Make an Interior video by blender guru. But thats about all i watched so idk if theres other people who also suggest that same model.
Its slow bruh
@I am me • 25y ago you kind of just have to wing it, make basic stuff and stuff you actually want to make first and you'll eventually get to building a complete scene
I'm a certified 3d artist and I don't learn this much in my 2 years journey keep it up!
Thanks! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around, because the show is just getting started!
You got soooo much further than i did in 6 hours. I am still stumped on making basic things happen... I learned on my own that if you duplicate an object outside of object mode, it doesn't appear in my menu to the right... and it messed with me for awhile because I needed to do something specific with those duplicated objects so... yeah :(
But man it's cool to see this. Incredible to see someone so dedicated. Very excited for you!!
Edit: What a creative way to stream!! Wow!!
This is a way to separate your objects in to separate objects. I think you can "separate by loose parts". Thanks! For sure stick around for the live streams!
I know this is late but if you hover your mouse over the duplicated object in edit mode, press L to select only that mesh and then p and select "selection" in the menu that pops up your duplicated mesh will become a separate object. I know it's been a month but I'm writing this for anyone else who finds this with a similar problem
@@AdamBaird bro you're a genius!!n
That’s so cool man! Congratulations,I bet the final product was absolutely rewarding to you! Looks awesome!
It really is! thanks for the nice comment!
I've never dared to venture past the first few hours of Blender, so this was cool to see the progression and how many hours it took someone else to learn different things. Your final product is incredible!
Thanks! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
I have been using this app for 6 months and still didn't reach these skills
Keep it up!
Don't give up! you got this. UA-cam is your friend for learning this!
You did pretty decent for a beginner.
The reason you did well is you had a specific goal.
You had seen someone put themselves in a scene
so you actually had a scene in your head that you wanted to be in.
Yep! Thanks for the nice comment!
You got to admire the sheer determination pushing this guy.
Thanks for the nice comment!
This was so cool to watch through! Currently working through learning blender right now and haha it’s super relatable! Awesome progress and video!
This is absolute amazing! I wanted to learn blender for years now and finaly decided that 2022 is the year i will finally learn it. So I stumbled upon your video and it gives me so much motivation! Thank you!
For sure! I am glad that you liked the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
if you haven't started learning yet, i suggest trying to make something from complete scratch with the knowledge you have right now, then make the donut and whatever project you can follow along with after. i made a shotgun shell as my first render and felt so accomplished, then went back to look at it a couple months later. huge motivation boost right there. it's really nice to have an obvious starting point that you can go back to later to see all the progress you've made
Nice to see someone getting into Blender; I'd recommend Royal Skies for basic tutorials and Ian Hubert for more advanced ones!
@@Marshimized I don't anything about these.
Can you suggest me some source to learn these?.
I like animated movies so much and I want to create some things like these in the video.
Where do I start?
Should I need good skills in drawing.
Thanks:)
@@jacobonweb3938 im also wonderign how to start it better, coz i dont have drawing skills at all
As someone who has only recently gotten into Blender in the last tow years, it's awesome to see how someone can overcome similar pitfalls and challenges that I had encountered. Keep up the good work bud!
Thanks! I appreciate the nice comment! Stick around!
I'd be happy just to make a decent doughnut. Great job Adam!
That’s so cool
And creative you used your blender render for your stream background !
Thanks! 😁 I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show it just getting started!
Blender has a missing material/file search function in menu File/External Data/Find Missing Files. Then just navigate where you think it was, even if it is an entire drive as it will iterate through the folders in your file structure.
I also learned the hard way when I started to work with blender. This function is massive time saver.
Thanks!
The intro didnt age well lmfao
This made me realize how old this vid was 😭😭😭
I don’t get what’s wrong with it.
@@gideonsamuel7155 dr disrespect got found of doing some stuff with minors
@@shinyjustyz Oh…
haha yeah... would do things a bit differently now...
That’s incredible. Hard to believe that was done in 100 hours. I would say don’t give up. .you’re a natural.
I downloaded blender just last night and started working on a "simple" 3d logo. I was having headaches almost immediately. Finding your video today has given me a lot of motivation to keep grinding. I'll set a timer every time I work and see what I can accomplish after a hundred hours. Thank you for sharing, king!
Thanks man! This was a nice comment! I think I remember seeing some tutorials on UA-cam for 3D blender logos. Keep at it and let me know how it goes!
@@AdamBaird on the contrary, my dude. Thank you for taking the time to reply. I'll most def come back when I reach 100 hours of training!
@@AngelFreak_ well, how did it go?
@@brycereinhard4674 Hey, man. Still struggling lol. Since English is not my first language I have a very difficult time trying to find the right keywords to look for stuff online. It's been rough but we in there!
I'm really struggling with Blender. Spent about 15 hours with it so far. This gives me motivation to continue. Thank you!
I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around, because the show is just getting started!
I'm just a random person but i'm really proud of you and your achievement, it's really inspiring and thank you for making this video too because I know it is a lot of work to edit and record too while learning so much.
Thanks man! That means a lot! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around, because the show is just getting started!
be glad. not proud
there's actually a button under "files > external data > FIND MISSING FILES" in case you're loosing some textures again. its way quicker than downloading and relinking everything 😅 or if the textures and so on are not too big, you can save it in the file direcly. then you dont have to worry anymore abourt file paths
Yeah... that didn't work for me... I must have deleted something along the way,.
OMG BRO,THAT LOOKS AWSOMEEEEEE!, The idea and textures are great
As someone who's been modelling and texturing for well over 10 years, this is quite a phenomenal progression in just 100 hours. You should feel very proud of yourself :)
As a tip though, if getting further into 3D is something you want to do, it would pay you early on to switch Blender's navigation style to "maya" in the user preferences. This is because that's what nearly every other piece of software uses as it's standard navigation. And since you might want to get into advanced texturing with Substance, advanced rendering with Marmoset or advanced cloth creation with Marvelous Designer, breaking the muscle memory early on it much easier than trying to do it after months or years of getting used to it (first hand experience there).
Top work!
That's a good tip thanks! Stick around!
you should not do this because it will make it 100 times harder to follow tutorial and allot of the setting in blender will be harder to find. just get convertible with blender because learning how to move in the viewport takes 20 second to leurn and 1 hour to get used too
That is a good point... thanks
I work in about 5 different software packages all with different navigation. You can adapt. At least blender lets you pick left click vs right click now! If you want to do it professionally and you hop between software then configure everything to your level of comfort. I work mainly in CAD and going to blender the pan vs rotate keys are switched but after a fumble or two the muscle memory kicks in.
Amazing progress in 100hours!
Thanks, this will help me.
Amazing I love how you used the scene as your background now! ❤
Thank you! 😄 Grab some popcorn and stick around! Show is just getting started.
It's crazy how you learned this much in 100 hours as I just finished my blender donut 😂
For future reference you can go to File>External Data>Find Missing files and if direct it to your texture folder it will automatically fix missing textures.
Thanks!
I’m switching career fields from software engineering to 3D modeling because of the freedom to model anything desirable in any given field (video games, CA, architecture, etc) and always dreamed of creating models for video game devs to use. This project you did is very similar to where I want to be. I just started but the learning curve is huge in the course I’m using. However it’s still very interesting for me more then computer science. I’ll hope to get similar results in my first 100 hours
I wish you the best of luck! It Definitely takes a creative eye. Stick around!
You are right, 3D modelling is much more fun and interesting than computer science, computer science is limited to abstraction while 3D modelling lets you create a simulation similar to our world. Computer science can also do that but 3D modelling gives you a visual simulation
That is Awesome !! Can you please share your 3D modeling learning track ?
I wanna say thank you because you inspired me to use blender more. Now I use blender more oftenly
That is awesome! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around, because the show is just getting started!
@@AdamBaird bring it on haha
I have taken several runs at Blender, but apparently don't have the patience to learn it. I really don't have a need for it with the type of content I produce, so there was no overwhelming push to learn it.
I do congratulate you on sticking with it and completing a project. I am sure you will do many more. Cheers.
Thanks for sharing! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
Your progress In the amount of time is amazing. Your final render came out incredible!
Thanks! Not bad for my first one :)
Impressive mate. Goes to show that anyone (who has an eye for design) can achieve huge leaps on their goals with just persistence.
I feel like so many people give up as soon as they just feel slightly overwhelmed, not knowing that it's the standard feeling you get before you start ticking boxes.
Well done.
Thanks man. I appreciate your comment! Stick around!
Dude ngl you're truly talented!!
Thanks! This was a really nice commment!
This is awesome! Going to give Blender a try again tomorrow, made some simple objects but seeing your progression really motivates me to try again. Thanks man!
Sweet! Wish you luck!
Reporting back, started making my own stuff because of this video and will keep going. Thanks for the inspiration, Adam! ua-cam.com/video/bdAM1qUKtlg/v-deo.html
How much you wanna bet he gave up on the first day after the wave of motivation?
He got overwhelmed by all the buttons and tabs. He is one of us. Instantly liked and subscribed.
Haha nice! Welcome to the crew! Stick around!
I've always wanted to try Blender in a while but afraid it'd be tough and never gave it a go. This gave me motivation, I'll start with the basics.
Yeah! Glad to hear it. Start basic and pick a project that you are excited about!
@@AdamBaird Hi Adam , can you show me where I learn Blender basic ? Thank you so much.
@@quoctam1719 Start with the donut... Blender guru is the youtube channel you're looking for.
Yeah, I thought it'd be very hard to do, but it's actually super simple, especially with AutoCAD and Microstation experience. I'm learning it alongisde UE5 rn, and the initial intimidation has mostly withered away.
I've just started blender for the same reasons for making backgrounds for streaming! so much inspiriation!! that scene looks amazing, and documenting your journey is freaking awesome :D
Thanks man! I wish you luck! Come share on discord what your making, I would love to check it out.
Oh my god, this progress! I tried getting into blender several times now (always unsuccessful) and can't believe how you could make a 100 hour project with no knowledge of blender! Your Motivation must have been imeasurable. Have a nice day
Thank you, I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around, because the show is just getting started!
This shows the power of Blender. Kind of similar to my journey recently. It's not easy... but still, if you are dedicated enough you'll be able to create some fantastic things within no time.
Yep, blender is really cool. I am glad that there were so many resources that could teach me along the way.
How do you bother with long render time tho? I wanna get my hands on blender but afraid it would destroy my poor low-spec PC.
Use Google colab
@@id6441 what's that :o
Edit: Ohh, thank you! Didn't even know such a thing exists.
I always enjoy watching people's progress when it comes to learning blender, as that can take while, but, when i noticed you were playing a Bad Apple remix by the end of the video, now i know you are a man of culture. Amazing! I hope you continue with it, and get better and better!
Haha thanks. I am glad that you liked the video :) The struggle is real. Hopefully the next project will go smoother.
Link to the remix?
for a beginner this is insanely good, not alot of people can do this you have the talent, keep it up!
I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
Found this video encouraging and inspiring for those of us getting started with Blender/3D. Short term my goal is to focus on character design, modeling and animation, but after doing some basic tutorials and learning of environments, lighting and stuff I realize there's lots more to Blender than you realize. Plus I've got an additional motivation: after 25 years in web development, I'm eager to switch to something else to put food on the table and I think 3d is my ticket, as demand will likely increase over time. Thanks for sharing 😀
Cool! I am a web developer by day. UA-camr by night. Keep following the dream!
I don’t know what blender is, but this video is amazing. Congratulations. :)
It’s something you use to shred food into liquids
in blender they pay you to 3d model blenders.
Thank you! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
This tutorial was well detailed. Earned a sub. I can confirm this is legit.
Thanks for the sub! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
Thanks Adam - I've not tried Blender but much of your "learning curve" was familiar having learnt Sketchup in the last year and now tackling Unity. Thanks for sharing - you should definitely keep going - 3d modelling is a valuable skill for which the demand will continue to increase.
Thanks for a nice comment! I will definitely keep at it as I have big plans for my live stream:)
Omg! This is so so beautiful! Thank youuuu for sharing. Just got started on Blender and well, everything looked soo strange.
I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Dont give up! Grab some popcorn and stick around, because the show is just getting started!
I have done a similar thing but I’m about a year in. My advice is to stick with it guys! Blender becomes far less intimidating after a while
Dang I bet you are good. You should share some of your work on my discord!
Goddammit. This is amazing.
One thing I'll say: doing this project back to back is probably the reason why you improved so much. 100 hours split into a few hours here and there can get you, at most, a donut. Ask me how I know.
Thanks! I did it over the course of 2 months. I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show it just getting started!
Blender is soooo addicting for me,i just start learning blender for like 2-4 months,once you figure how to shape thing you just can't stop,im still far from blender guru or blender master,veeeerrrryyy far,and all i can do is like make a small scenery or detailed item,watching this video is really capture what i feel with how the scifi computer you make before vs after you learn more,and its motivate me to make big scenery like cantina bar
I totally agree! The best part for me was to paint the whole scene. I am glad that you are enjoying blender. I am just getting started. Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
Dude anything that will help you secure your future and make you profits is worth learning, provided that you love it and enjoy doing it.
Well said! Thanks for commenting!
@@AdamBaird
You're welcome Adam 🙏🏻♥️
I remember watching this video a long time ago, and being blown away by the progress you made! I don’t have blender myself, I don’t even have a PC or laptop, but this will be the first thing I try if I ever get one. This is so impressive on so many levels, great work here!
Thanks! This is a really nice comment! For sure give it a try when you can!
incredible progress in such a short amount of time. I envy you. this skill is worth a lot of money.

@@unrealstudent2239 regardless of his intention, I'm still envious.
Bruh. Awesome progress for your first project! You challenged yourself and stuck with it. The reason most people fail is because they burn out before they see the results they expected from day one. and choose to give up instead of persevering It doesn't work like that. Good Job!!!!!!!

wow well done, mate. great job on your 100 hour journey and kudos on making the video such a joy to follow along too. nice one
Glad you enjoyed it! Feel free to stick around!
A tip for animations, if you use the Denoise Node in the Compositor, you can get away with using fewer samples per frame, hence speeding render speeds. Although, gotta have enough, so it looks visually consistent.
Yeah with all the dark spots the denoiser wasn't working well so I turned it off.
@@AdamBaird Ah, understandable.
@@AdamBaird since the end result isn't quite photorealistic why didn't you render with Eevee instead of cycles? It would have finished rendering in hours if not minutes.
100 hours and you actually made something pretty cool - I'm impressed and motivated! Great video.

I have maybe 3 or 4 hours on it at most. I’ve had it for like 8 or 9 months but the most I’ve done is use it for a school project and do some very small stuff and I haven’t forced myself to sit down and actually learn it until last night and now this video popped up and to see your progress in just 100 hours is definitely inspiring
Well thats great! Don't give up!
Nice job man. Honestly it’s hard to get that good that quick so be proud of yourself man.
Thank you! That is really nice of you to say!
You have crazy talent! I wouldn’t even be able to do this in a year!
I bet you could! Dont give up!
@@AdamBaird never! I could not! And im more into 2d animation😅
But thanks for the kind words!!!
Wow 10 years in here, and I’m finally going to leave a comment. Hard work and persistence pays off man. That’s amazing
Thank you so much! Thanks for leaving your fist comment here!
That's why taking regular backups of your files is important!!!
Amen!
Just picked up Blender to add to my game design skills. Seeing the progress you made with the software from scratch is really reasurring. Great work!
Great to hear! Thanks for the nice comment! Stick around!
We can help with that :)
With a basic knwoledge you did this man... congratulations!!! I just learned the basics of Blender, and I'm SO ready to model all the existing objects in the entire universe hehehe. Thank you for the video.
You are welcome! I am glad that you liked the video. Don't give up in your blender learning!
Right from the get go your scene set up and camera placement was really good imo. That's what I struggle with the most when making a scene
This is really awesome but also really discouraging because I have a little over 300 hours in blender and I thought I was getting really good but your scene is so much better and high quality and you did it in a couple weeks
I was super focused on achieving this one objective... I am not very versed in all over blender and will have to learn many parts over again.
don't be discouraged man. he had very clear idea - that moved in the right direction very quick. the way you thinking about it right now is not good for you, you have to adjust that if you want to improve your life. watch futur channel, he has alot of good thinking patterns going on there, which you can pick-up on
are people just casually recording the amount of time they've spent in blender lol
If you installed through steam it tracks your blender hours for you. Also they're right about not getting discouraged. Blender is such a versatile program that you can spend thousands of hours using it, and still have no idea what most of the UI does. I've put in over 4000 hours and I could tell you all about creating functional character assets for video games, but I would be incredibly lost if I had to make a scene like this.
Especially that rendering, it took TWO DAYS?! I don't know what I'd do with my life if I had to let my PC just chill and render for that long. I'd probably start googling render farms so I'd never have to do it again, lol.
@@AdamBaird But this is precisely how you learn when it comes to technical areas, for example, if you wanted to learn to utilize Photoshop, you would require a project first.
You have talent man, you really should get into it deeply, it could change your life forever.
That's so cool!! This gave me motivation because I just started learning. Thankyou!
That's awesome! Excited for your first project!
Adam lol that ending was Epic.. good job man, your videos are a ton of fun

This was mind-blowing. Well done and thanks for sharing the journey with us 👏🏽💯

You telling me not to learn Blender and seeing your journey only makes me want to learn it more.
haha all according to plan ;) Let me know if you make anything cool!
That looks epic! This video was so entertaining, and also made me realize I don't wanna make compacted scenes in blender lol
Glad you enjoyed it! haha yeah I can understand that feeling. Stick around!
amazing man, you're that guy who pushes through hurdles.
That was very nice of you to say! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
I appreciate that you used the actual render as a background for the stormtrooper
For sure!
This is just amazing! Always wanted to try out Blender, just looks so daunting.
Keep up the great work.
It really is daunting... took me for ever just to figure out how to navigate around. Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started.
I see a lot of work, effort, blood, sweat and maybe a little bit of your soul put into this project and even though you put 100hrs into this project its still impressive, it gave me some motivation but not enough to do thing of my own in Blender ^^" ANYWAY!!! love the video, liked the video and congratualtions you got yourself a new subscriber

This tutorial is amazing and you are really good at teaching !! great job sir !
I am glad that you enjoyed the video!
Well done!! That's the 3D experience, doing something and then redoing it... but a little bit faster.
Haha so true! Hopefuly every following project is a little faster!
Thank you for being so clear and explaining with the right amount of complexity
You are welcome! I am glad that you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
He did a scene that was a million times more complex than what I could do after 4 years of Blender!!!
Haha not sure about that. Thanks for this comment!
I've learnt that some people have two superpowers called patience and attention to detail that allow this to happen.
I never manage to stick to the same project for more than a few hours max.
It loses all emotional value to me once I see how I *COULD* have done it and all that's left is going through the motions of learning and doing.
@@cyberneticbutterfly8506 Ehh, I live with ADHD and I can tell you... My life is a living hell... And the worst part of it is that most doctors don't even know about it in my country, and I can't get the medication I need. Sorry for being negative, but I'm in a really bad state rn. I just want everything to stop.
@@googlemail9992 please dont say hell like that
@@giovanni545 I can't
Good job on this. And thank you. I have been looking into learning Blender for something I wanted to do. You have shown me that I simply don't have the time to learn Blender like I would like to. It took you 100 hours to get from 0 experience to a 15 second segment which is very impressive. But I simply don't have that kind of time. Blender is obviously very powerful. Nice work.
I've been working with blender for 3 years on and off, you've made something better in 100 hours than I have in my entire time in this software 😭💀
haha I am sure you are better then you think! I am glad that you enjoyed the video. Stick around!
Dude I am so impressed with this. Literally made me smile! Good work
Thank you! I am glad that you liked it!
Incredible man. Your problem solving abilities are clear and present. I hope you had a blast and continue to fall down the blender rabbit hole.
Much appreciated! I am glad the you enjoyed the video! Grab some popcorn and stick around because the show is just getting started!
You learned blender in 100 hours that is awesome I started learning it almost a year ago and still am lagging behind it is mainly because of my laziness but you made me want to improve my skills thanks for that :)
So cool! I am glad that you liked the video. Blender is pretty complicated. When 3.0 comes out there will be a lot of cool new features!
Maybe it's not laziness, maybe you just need to set yourself an ambitious goal. Try to find the edge between nice to have and too ambitious so you'll give up preemptively. That is the big takeaway in this successtory I think.
