So I tried lots of Udemy courses, tutorials and books. Nothing gets even close to your videos. The amount of useful information has no comparison. You should create a course and sell it using Udemy or similar platforms, you deserve much more for this level of work.
Tip 5.5: In addition to using Ctrl+Numpad numbers to get the opposites, you can use just the 9 on the Numpad to toggle to the reverse of the current side.
That's great to hear - I 'm very happy that it could provide you with some info. I have so much more to learn in Blender myself, beyond Low Poly stuff especially.
Know your audience. People looking for Blender tips need simple tips to get going in Blender. This video does exactly that. Thank you! Subbed and Thumbs Up
i was a beginner some months ago but i watched a lot A LOT of video like this and i can say you that you were the one that helped me the most cause the developpers ask low poly models a lot
You can rename this video : 20 Tips for Blender 2.8, the basics I wanted to know when i first start blender. It's simple, clear, complete and deserve a lot more views. Thanks Imphenzia
This is by far the best Blender tips video I've seen. Very concise yet really easy to follow, and you never forget to mention which keys you're pressing. Great stuff!
Thank you, Imphenzia. I'm an intermediate user and found this video to be filled with valuable tips esp. the double tap "i" for inset on 2 faces at once. You are the Boss of Blender!
I take it back! This is the best Blender video. I appriciate tutorials but this is so simple and yet explains so much! And the order you have chosen is also great. I'm following along as you go, playing with each new feature I learn. I can't even express how helpful this is. Hearts, faves, and likes all around!!
I have been struggling to do any thing in blender until I started watching your videos. You have explained thing so well for me, I can’t thank you enough 🙏
ha! yes. I think what caused this crash was that he tried to add the cube object into a hidden geometry object while in Edit Mode. He meant to be in Object Mode. Happens to the best of us - because Imphenzia is the best of us! LOL
your tutorials are one of the really few that one can watch for hours and hours without feeling tired/bored/lost. thank you so much! HUGE thumbs up! (without the balls)
pure gold thank you especially loved the uv coloring tip - way easier than creating a whole bunch of materials - and the way you build everything as a single object by adding meshes while in edit mode - can see how that's going to save a ton of time compared to having a bunch of separate objects which is how I've always done things up til now. (just to add to tip 20, SHIFT-H hides everything >>except
Pure gold. Earned a sub. This format of 20 tips for blender , as opposed to just "low poly vehicle", made it super easy to translate these skill sets to other model types. So thank you.
This way of getting colors for low poly models is fast, and then you can have a second properly unwrapped UV map to bake the texture onto later. Excellent stuff, much faster than constantly adding a new material. Thanks for that man.
You've done it again (and over again and again) !! Perhaps the best Blender Hands-On Tips/Tutorial there is. Thank you for putting these together and sharing freely. Sincerely Appreciated! BTW, I am using Blender 3.5.1: I found it more efficient to add Mesh--> Ico Sphere to segmentation div and proportion edit (instead of Mesh-->Cube) for the foliage. Great to know there are various ways to solve to that need.
It's a great tip session. There's a tip that u missed, if u select a vertex, edge or face and press *CTRL* then press any of those away from them it'll select a path between them. If the model is more symmetrical and selected faces or verteices are in a straight path then that whole path is selected. It's useful in many ways, even in this modelling video. Hope this helped
This is brilliant, I've been going through a number of tutorials in the past week and all the other videos feel like they have gaps in them for someone like me that is just starting out. The other creators were great too but I think it is more a case of the "curse of knowledge" that they forget what people need/ want to know when starting out. Straight-forward instruction, good pacing, and still manages to deliver a solid foundation of information.
At 7:08 when you were selecting the faces on the side of the car, a good tip is to click the first face, then CTRL+click the last face and it’ll select all the faces in between. Also, when you were insetting the windshield, another good tip (and a much easier way to do this) is to hit B after hitting E, and your inset will stick to the inner border. This only works when there’s a missing face, as there is when you’re modeling with a Mirror modifier.
The tutorial to end all tutorials. This is GREAT for all blender beginners. Usually, I don't subscribe to tutorials because there one time uses but I'm subscribing since I'm going to be on Blender for the rest of my life and you answered all my questions.
Followed this tutorial from start to finish in Blender 2.8 and am now the proud owner of a groovy little car and tree, and I learnt heaps about how to use Blender :D. woo. Very nice video.
Best video about starting up correctly and setting things to mirror all the work. Thank you very much! People who teach on youtube do it way too fast for newbies, so by the time you find the command, they are already doing something else! Again, thank you!
Great that you found that part useful. It had eluded me for a long time too and I kept manually ensuring X vertices were at 0 so the clipping setting is definitely a handy one.
Just one thing I wanna say... THANK YOU for knowing the difference between Vertex and Vertices! As soon as I noticed you awareness in one of your videos, I subscribed :D
Perfect video for beginners! I really wished I had found this one when I started with Blender one month ago. Wasted a lot of time on other videos that was half as good as this one.
Dude I've been modeling in blender as a hobby for a while and I never knew about inset. I've been extruding than scaling the selection than extruding a second time. I had no idea. Thanks.
great!! this is like your 10 minutes modeling videos in slow motion and with extra clear instructions... perfect for me as a beginner... thanks a lot :-)
Really love your video! Learn low poly in Blender been on my want to do list for at least 5 years now. I finally made your car + sitting around and playing around! I say this was an excellent starting video for me + I like your Swedish accent! PS: Ja, I was sitting some hours wounder how I Remove Doubles (Alt + M)
Hey - glad you found the video useful and thanks for taking the time to comment! Yes, sorry about Alt + M, I will have to release a new video now that it's out of beta I suppose =)
This is one of the BEST Blender videos for beginners. I wanted to thank you for taking the time to share this video. I leaned so much from this. 🚗❤️🎯🇨🇦
Thanks a lot for your videos Imphenzia, I am trying to learn how to do assets in blender and use them in unreal engine c++ (as well learning ...), thanks to you I saved a lot of days of trying to gather all this knowledge crawling internet
What a great rundown of tips. And like others have mentioned, yes, Tip #21 or more like Tip #0, save your work! Waiting for that 200K subs many hours long stream now, it’s so close.
If you're using 3.0 or higher and trying to follow along then doing a Shift + double click will loop select on a loop cut. If trying to do it on two edges of the box you will need to click the first vert and the second that you want and it will sometimes select the 3rd one but maybe not the fourth edge of the box. That is because it's connected to other edges on the outside is what I am gathering. So probably best to just do a box select after pressing shift z in transparent mode and one of the viewport hotkeys or just press the button above tab to access the view menu. But an even faster way to switch views imo is pressing holding alt and middle mouse button. Hope this helps anyone who is learning.
Thanks! You are a great teacher. Your family is nice and you are a great help. Keep it up this way. Have a nice Summer (I wish it that it will be better than Spring:)) Greetings from Budapest.
Simple, direct and objective! I struggle so much with Blender for years. Documentation is my nightmare, although it is required to a software to have one. thank you so much for this video. Blender should consider add your video to tutorial section of them, because is the only video that was able to teach me how to model my lowpoly models that i love the most. Now i'm searching a video tutorial for Blender + Unity using FBX or whatever extension is better to use. I think FBX is universal though. Cheers.
This was a really well done tutorial as well as that hour long low poly one. Your edits are clean, you place lots of text on screen and you even voice your commands as you go about your process. I wish I found these sooner! 💎
i watched many of your Videos now and this older one really made me subscribe. Before this Video i really liked all the stuff you made in your videos around the time of this comment, but i thought i could never do that too. Now i just learned modeling stuff just like you.
It is not only low-poly, it's the full-fledged venture through basic mesh selection and manipulation. The absolute basic repertoire of a mesh modeller in a concise, clear demonstration. Absolutely great. Bit the most important lesson is: ALWAYS SAVE YOUR PROGRESS! Unless you feel as calm as this dude after losing half an hour's work just after finishing your object. :-) Just wondering if blender does not auto-save and lets you recover (parts of) your last session after a crash?
Great framework for covering all the basics and getting folks off to a good start. Very clear, economical. Nicely done. One thing.. I've been modeling in Blender for years, can't remember the last time I used the Esc key... right-clicking in those contexts does the job.
Oh, that is great about right click instead of escape :) thanks - I will look through comments of this video and make a followup when blender now comes out of beta too.
This is a fantastic tut, and really well done! I learned some excellent fundamentals here (L mesh select, Shift+Enter G, and the CTRL snapping) that you don't get if you only make donuts 😎👍🏽🍩
Thanks a lot for this video with many useful tips and techniques clearly explained with your car and tree examples. UV coloring method looks very efficient for low poly models, first time I hear of it in a Blender tutorial.
When you press Shift+D and then Y without the Escape you will snap to Y-axis. You can also Shift+D and then press S or R to scale or rotate the duplicate at once...
I watched 1st 15min and already learned things that bothered me before. This video is amazing! Now that I commented that, I can watch the rest of the video in peace. :D thank you!
NOTE: Remove Doubles have now been replaced by Merge By Distance (Alt + M) - thanks for the heads up tmcraig008
and bagylender
Where can we locate the remove Doubles? was it renamed or replaced with another feature?
Thnx i m getting problem in this
@@janjavate1405 I guess you already have the answer, but for whoever that has the same issue, Edit mode > Mesh > Clean up > Merge by Distance
just spent 30 mins trying this part many times thinking i had done it wrong. on with the show
Now it's just "M".
Clean, simple explanation. This channel deserves 1M subs. Thumps up.
Thanks, I appreciate it :)
Thump.
Coudn't agree more!!
Ah yes, thumps up
Thanks, I only have 2 real videos but I will take the compliment.
So I tried lots of Udemy courses, tutorials and books. Nothing gets even close to your videos. The amount of useful information has no comparison. You should create a course and sell it using Udemy or similar platforms, you deserve much more for this level of work.
yes
yes
Most definitely!
Tip 5.5: In addition to using Ctrl+Numpad numbers to get the opposites, you can use just the 9 on the Numpad to toggle to the reverse of the current side.
Lol, so that's what the 9 does. I never knew
This tutorial completely exceeded my expectations. I learned so much. Thank you good sir.
That's awesome , glad to hear that! You're welcome.
As an intermediate Blender user i was skeptical when the tutorial started, but damn i learned a lot from this video, great job and thank you! 👍🏼
That's great to hear - I 'm very happy that it could provide you with some info. I have so much more to learn in Blender myself, beyond Low Poly stuff especially.

I am really glad it helped you out, I will do a follow up video to this too since a few things have changed slightly.
This is by far the best Blender tips video I've seen. Very concise yet really easy to follow, and you never forget to mention which keys you're pressing. Great stuff!
Thank you, Imphenzia. I'm an intermediate user and found this video to be filled with valuable tips esp. the double tap "i" for inset on 2 faces at once. You are the Boss of Blender!
Thanks - Yes, that is so useful. Also remember B if you use the mirror modifier and doing insets, that will take care of the center line nicely.
I take it back! This is the best Blender video. I appriciate tutorials but this is so simple and yet explains so much! And the order you have chosen is also great. I'm following along as you go, playing with each new feature I learn. I can't even express how helpful this is. Hearts, faves, and likes all around!!
Sweet, glad you find it useful! I've learned a lot more since this video so I am thinking about doing a new version for 2020 =)
@@Imphenzia I would totally watch it. I am JUST learning Blender. So this kind of thing is perfect for an inexperienced noob.
I have been struggling to do any thing in blender until I started watching your videos. You have explained thing so well for me, I can’t thank you enough 🙏
Awesome to hear that!
Normally I don't even leave comments but.. but this video is pure gold. I just wanna say thanks!
This video is still my GO-TO for Blender -- even at 3x and in 2022. Thank you so much Imphenzia you are an absolute legend!!
Extra tip save while you're working on your models
Haha, yes, my normal workflow includes that and it should definitely be in a top tip video, well said!
Nice tip I always accidently add a sphere or something to an object with a bunch of subdevisions, and then blender crashes
ha! yes. I think what caused this crash was that he tried to add the cube object into a hidden geometry object while in Edit Mode. He meant to be in Object Mode. Happens to the best of us - because Imphenzia is the best of us! LOL
your tutorials are one of the really few that one can watch for hours and hours without feeling tired/bored/lost.
thank you so much!
HUGE thumbs up! (without the balls)
I have learnt more in first few minutes of this video, than years of other random videos
Happy to hear that :)
I can proudly say that today I spent the best useful 43 minutes of my life
pure gold
thank you
especially loved the uv coloring tip - way easier than creating a whole bunch of materials - and the way you build everything as a single object by adding meshes while in edit mode - can see how that's going to save a ton of time compared to having a bunch of separate objects which is how I've always done things up til now.

Man, I keep coming back to this video, and learn something new every time. Bravo!
That's cool! I'm going to redo it now in 2020 - so many more things to include and some changes from the older 2.8 versions to cover.
32:05 Damn I had a mini heart attack. I thought my computer got crashed. I was watching in full screen :D
This way of getting colors for low poly models is fast, and then you can have a second properly unwrapped UV map to bake the texture onto later. Excellent stuff, much faster than constantly adding a new material. Thanks for that man.

Tip number ten at 14:50 is so important! (Vertex Snapping)
Yes, that has been suuuch a huge help when modeling, I agree!
Followed this tutorial from start to finish in Blender 2.8 and am now the proud owner of a groovy little car and tree, and I learnt heaps about how to use Blender :D. woo. Very nice video.

Great that you found that part useful. It had eluded me for a long time too and I kept manually ensuring X vertices were at 0 so the clipping setting is definitely a handy one.
Your English is phenomenal and your videos are even better. Thanks for all the tips!
One of the best Blender tutorial I have found. Thanks a lot for making this !!
Thanks, I am glad you like it!!
You deserve the best sir. I modeled my first low poly object, I still can't believe. Thank you so much. You're really helping me.
Just one thing I wanna say... THANK YOU for knowing the difference between Vertex and Vertices! As soon as I noticed you awareness in one of your videos, I subscribed :D
Thank you for the videos. This was easy to follow and my car has me doing a little happy dance right now.
what a clean explanation i mean this is a compliment this video helped me a lot
I can now model many things. Thanks to you bro. You made me from coder to a 3d artist. Thanks
Perfect video for beginners! I really wished I had found this one when I started with Blender one month ago. Wasted a lot of time on other videos that was half as good as this one.

Easy to understand and remenmber tutorial.. good example of car !!
This is one of the most insane like/dislike ratio videos I have ever seen. No one can dislike such a concise explanation on how to do this.
Love your explanations, clear and to the point, a lot better than some paid courses, learnt more in this 40+ mins than hours of others
great!! this is like your 10 minutes modeling videos in slow motion and with extra clear instructions... perfect for me as a beginner... thanks a lot :-)

That's great to hear!! I'll add some more detailed tutorials/tips videos too.
All the techniques are really awesome and very good for beginners like me , Thanx a lot!! it was very well explained 😃
Very nice and useful tutorial. Usually to get to this tips you'd have to watch many different tutorials and try and remember them.

what have you made now?
Thank you vm for putting in the time for the description. It's super helpful.
amazing work !
I am really happy to see the channel grow very fast finally. Your persistance will pay off :)
keep up the good work.
I'm so thankful I found your youtube channel. You have a very, very talented way to teach. Thanks a lot!
This was an incredibly helpful video, I will definitely be re-watching this video until each of these 20 tips are burned into my brain.
Fantastisk bra och informativ tutorial, många att gå igenom vilket jag ser framemot. 😊
This is the best of all the blender tutorials I’ve watched. Thank you so much.
Your videos are extremely helpful. Thank you for such thorough information.
Simply the most useful blender tutorial on UA-cam! Thanks a lot!
Thank ypu for solving my "mirror" issue with the deleting of the face!
When you press Shift+D and then Y without the Escape you will snap to Y-axis. You can also Shift+D and then press S or R to scale or rotate the duplicate at once...
I feel like these types of tutorials are very effective than just learning to make a random thing in blender
It's better to give people the tools to do what they want than to learn by doing something you don't
I watched 1st 15min and already learned things that bothered me before. This video is amazing! Now that I commented that, I can watch the rest of the video in peace. :D thank you!
