Hi Keelan, thank you so much for sharing your story! Usually I put EN subtitles since I am a japanese, but your explanation is very clear so I can understand. I started learning blender few month ago and I found your amazing tutorials recently. Since I watched some random tutorials on UA-cam, your video is the best! Every time I made blender arts with your tutorials, I really enjoy blender and more interested in 3dcg art. Moreover, I love your voice XD Sometimes it is hard time that I can't make things what I image in my head, but I will keep trying and do my best ! Again, thank you so much! Lots of love from one of your Subscriber.
You are a big inspiration for me! just yesterday I thought "why do I need 3d and 2d, what do I need from that?" I decided to refresh myself with your energy, thank you!
I started with Ducky3d and now you. I believe both of you are amazing and my favorite Blender content creators and teachers. It helped me become so much more passionate and confident with the software. Thank you so much Keelan!!
Love this journey!! 🧡 This motivates me to start working on blender again!! Thank You for all you have given us!! Lots of love from one of your Subscriber!! 🧡🙌
Hey! I’ve started learning blender not too long ago, and I’ve been watching a bunch of blender progress videos. This video in particular has to be one of my favorites, so I’m dropping a comment to say thank you. So uh, yeah, thank you! I’ll probably rewatch this multiple times in case I need motivation.
Hey man, is good to hear from you, thanks to you I have learn how to create this style which, same as you, I couldn't find anyone else teaching it. So, thank you, and looking forward to see new tutorials from you.
MAN, what an amazing journey. After watching this video it seems like I'm in the same boat. I'm UI/UX designer & frontend developer, I really want to achieve this same style as I was looking for & couldn't find it elsewhere. Keep going man & release amazing tutorials for us. I'm starting off today to learn blender bec Idk the ABC of the blender.
I worked as a banker for 7 years and then I quit my Job because it was too hectic and damaging my life, working up to 12 hours daily non stop, after quitting in between the time im looking for a new job, i came across blender, never heard about the software before because i was never in the 3D industry, i got inspired and probably found something i love, started learning basic stuff and object editing tools, took me about 2 months of learning and practice and then start modeling some cool stuff, still learning as there is much and much to explore to learn, but in the end im glad to say I found something i truly love. Thanks for sharing your story.
Hey, I'm just in the middle of the Donut tutorial on my Blender journey. Yesterday was my first day using Blender. I hope to improve and eventually create amazing 3D characters like you do. Thank you for the inspiration.
I just found your channel only by chance and I'm really happy that I did, been looking for a channel to learn sculpting from but all I found hard and complicated and made me disappointed. but the way you explain things is simple and fun made me subscribe, looking forward to learning from you and get better. thank you ;)
You're welcome, I'm just a beginner so I'm trying to learn many things from modeling, sculpting, lightning, texturing and all.. surely I'll appreciate it if you do more sculpting tuts but I'm also sure whatever tut you do I'll like it 🤝🏻
Hey! Thanks for sharing your journey Keelan 🤩 you’ve honestly developed and defined your style so well over the last 24 months - you are a huge inspiration and I look forward to see what you create next! Best wishes 🏴
Super happy I stumbled upon your channel! I've been wanting to move into learning more character modelling etc, and feel like your work and tutorials are exactly what I've been looking for! Excited to see future work and videos from you :)
I started trying to actually learn blender during lockdowns (Prior to that point in time I had been off and on again trying to learn it by myself for like 6ish years), but I definitely feel like I have mostly finally figured out a good enough portion of it to make stuff (at this point I think I have hundreds of incomplete models, and only like 10 ones that I've actually rendered out), but I have too high expectations (despite knowing I've only just really begun) and it is a massive drain on the motivation to even open the program. Biggest hurdles for me I have a hard time focusing on learning these sorts of things via a video tutorial, partly because I don't like noise when I'm trying to focus on doing something brain intensive (like even when I was a kid, I had to mute game sounds if I was having a hard time with sections), and the other part because for some reason it just feels like someone is looming over my shoulder watching me.
Hi thanks for sharing :) We're all different types of learners so it makes sense that not everyone can sit and watch a video tutorial, there are lots of written docs on Blender in addition to books that are fantastic resources! For me its the opposite, watching videos by myself makes me feel like I can take as much time as I want rather than sitting in a class where someone really is watching over your shoulder xD Maybe I'll need to make a video discussing other ways to learn Blender 🤔 Good luck on your Blender Journey :)
Hi Nervatel, I started my blender journey very recently too, and I can relate with one or two of your feelings like "too high expectation" and "massive drain on the motivation to even open the program". You know sometimes as we watch many tutorials we get to a point internally where we say "I can do this too!" and as we start using the program we realized we can't or there's too much friction getting something simple done. We stubble with the many buttons, shortcuts, navigation of the program, OR even a project idea, etc... I think that's why when we come back to the program we could experience a "massive drain on of motivation as soon as we open the program"... To combat this feeling I would say and this my opinion and experience is to model something simple like a Funko Pop character, there's a hundred of them, give yourself the goal to model one and light it good that makes you proud, and print it or have it as wallpaper on your phone/desktop, the best is to have it as a poster physically around your room. This could be a source of inspiration for you. Next time you open Blender think of it as this time is "practice time" or "project time" on project time give yourself something you can reference, model, light and proudly display and for "practice time" don't give yourself any expectation JUST play with the program. A method that helped understand the program was by reading a blender fundamental book that I got from amazon. I use youtube whenever I get stuck on something that I needed quick tutorial, like quick searching for a preference setting, add-on, a modifier, etc. Anyways I peek your YT channel I've seen you've work on Blender "Fishbowl Mask" and you know how to navigate around Blender. Maybe the issue is not completing something you proud of, which thats happened to me. I'd say I'd keep at it, just give yourself something simple you can reference, model, light it, and print/display out, frame/wallpaper it, etc. Good luck!
@@KeelanJon Oh, don't get me wrong, I love watching tutorials (Your videos have been wonderful), I glean quite a bit of stuff from any ones I watch, I just can't watch and do it simultaneously. xD I have modeled quite a bit of stuff since my last message, and I definitely have improved in quality, motivation is still tricky but I am getting much better at it. c:
Great designs. I started with the lockdown. I'm nowhere near your level yet. I'm just working on a set free characters I already had designed. I'm trying to learn how to do retopology now.
Just found your channel through this video. I'm also a web dev by day and a blender user in my free time so you definitely got a sub from me! Thanks for sharing this great content
Really awesome creations, can you really bring more tutorials mainly about hair creation with different types of hair?(like the ones you showed in the video) i loved the hair of your character (from the website and channel cover) but i really don't know how to make them. I Apreciate your help and i'm loving your tutorials.
Hey man! Love your animations... And really wanna learn the walking animation you do with the characters..... Please make a tutorial vedio on it..... By the way, you're awsome 💥💥💥❤❤❤
Please tutorial course for your skin style modeling it gold new generation because there not much tutorial. From base mesh to detail, rigging and basic animation
Of course, the 3D inustry is booming with jobs and careers paths. Whether it's for game design, interior design, 3d printing, there are countless directions you could take it. But it's also worth noting that it's also just a great hobby if you enjoy being creative :)

It's safe to say that your walking character animation tutorial is greatly awated ^^ your artwork is awesome and thank you so much for the tutorials
"I'm a web developer by day"
+ 1 to your subs! I love seeing devs exploring creative outlets 😄
Hey hey, appreciate the support 😁🙌
It's funny because I started with the donut last week, then I went to the "Well", exactly like you. Now I'm learning from you!!

Amazing journey Keelan, can you tell me where you learn animation??
Inspirational works
your works amazing im watching all your videos when did you start blender ?
Hey man! Love your animations... And really wanna learn the walking animation you do with the characters..... Please make a tutorial vedio on it..... By the way, you're awsome 💥💥💥❤❤❤
I would really like to see the creation of the guy with the bike helmet do you have that video?
Great video.
Thank you 😁
bro thank you soo much
I hope i have skills like you one day
With practice I'm sure you will! :D
Sir could you please teach how to rig and animate like that archer
I know I'm late but congrats on finding that house
Hey, thank you 😁🙌
Nice video. I started 3 months ago in June and have uploaded my projects. They're pretty shite though.
Please tutorial course for your skin style modeling it gold new generation because there not much tutorial.
From base mesh to detail, rigging and basic animation
Really inspiring! How long did it take you to get to this level?
good bro
Is that wizard dude your nft upcoming collection ?!
Potentially 😉🪄
@@KeelanJon I would like to help you lmk if you need anything I am part of a couple of projects.
May I ask...what's the triangle count..
The donut texture is where I'm stuck, I can't really see the texture 😥 I did the nodes and all but no texture
Texturing can be very confusing at first, but I'd recommend having a little re-watch of the section and I'm sure you'll get there, you got this 🦾
@@KeelanJon thank you now I finally finished the donut 😊
You have any fb page?
Can you make money using blender?
