your discord invite cuz it's invalid
I think the link is wrong. It tells me the specs of the pc
Not a demand, just a pov from a fan: your works are amazing but I think you would reach a wider audience if you did more step-by-step video tutorials as these attract beginners and intermediates alike. The current videos you produce are a mix between educational and entertaining, which is not wrong but when I watch your videos it feels like I am there to be entertained, not specifically educated. I know you want to capture the fun side of education but sometimes I think it is a little overboard. Thank you for everything. I have learned a lot from your videos and i hope to continue learning.
He made a lots of those in the past.
So true thank you
Yes, I agree
Plenty of tutorials already. I like him the way he is.
I think those longer, step by step videos are generally a thing of the past. Look at all the other educational videos out there, none of them are real time anymore.
these 2008 models still look better than the ones i "try" to make since last year lol
keep trying tho bro
Me too
Same bro.
I already gave up. I tried so hard but it didn't work so in 2020 i gave up trying.
@@goomemode3336 maybe try something else? maybe you will enjoy motion graphics or procedural shading or anything else!
3D has no future.
You've been so much fun to watch over the years. I have always especially loved your sense of humor, those Bob Ross videos with the wig being some of my favorites. Here's hoping you have many more years of success and happiness.
Wish I could grow such a beard 😔

Good work! It’s very inspiring to see how much you’ve improved.
Thank you so much, man. You and BGuru taught me so much about blender and 3d art, in general, more than another course online. Andrew demonstrated to me how to use blender, but you show that I didn't need an ultra duper computer to make something amazing and to expand beyond expectations for free software.
Thank you so much
Looking back at development in 3d skills makes me happy. It’s amazing to look back at how people learned to use the software.
I recently got interested in Blender but at the same time I did not know what to do.Thanks to you I have been educated and enjoyed the tutorials.
Big fan of the channel, Steve! Here's to another great 13 years of Blender!!
I'm at the beginning of my Blender journey and you've been an excellent source for education as well as entertainment. Watching this just made me pick up my MacBook and get started on today's checklist of tutorials. #inspired
(Also, the link in the description for the giveaway seems to be wrong or broken. It just loads the product page.)
That's awesome!! and try the social links in the description!
@@CGGeek I figured it out! I should have read more before I posted. My B! Thanks a million (again)!
Don't do it!
show us your work
are you still doing modelling and/or animation with blender? if so how's it goin man?
It was cool to watch your whole blender journey in just eight minutes!!!
Your "Scene in Under X Minutes" videos were *invaluable* to me learning material nodes! You showed a lot of techniques and I was able to get an idea of how they worked, then if I needed more info I could go off and look for it.
A lot of great insight here! Really appreciate all the work you put in to educating. I started my blender journey about 2 years ago and your channel was one of the first I came across. Always love seeing your process.
Look how far you have come!
GREAT WORK! 👍👍
Really been enjoying your work and videos man keep it up learned so much from you!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, your tutorials are simply amazing. I look forward to more content in 2022, enjoy the year-end festivities.
I love your channel!. I'm a begginer in 3D animation and your videos helped me soooo much to get around Blender and understand how things work, what I have to look out for and how to make an ok begginer project. I still have a lot to learn. Thanks so much!! Hope too see more great quality tutorials from you ❤️
Always love videos like this. I think they’re really inspiring for artists in all stages but especially beginners who have a lot of self doubt in their abilities. Stop doubting yourself! Deliberate practice everyday and you’ll be surprised what you can do!
Nah, when you look at the best and try to be better it is a hard road. And barely rewarding this days =(
U are right and all the begineners, u are awesome cause u are trying to learn something new just be focused and keep practicing.
@@samhamsord7942 That’s not a healthy perspective imo. I’ve definitely felt that before, but what keeps me going is hearing industry professionals discuss how they felt they’d never be good enough for decades sometimes. If you work hard and strive to improve, your time will come.
@@Jham3D Nah, I have different way. I decided learning it only when I realized exactly what I want to do with it - make adult animations. In that field, it doesn't takes all that much skill as it would in professional CGI. And having 4 years of very lazy work behind, I have all the skills I need to start doing epic stuff and improve as I go, somehow I always do. Problem is, can't say this work can be exactly a hobby. Even though I naturally like working with polygons, textures, shaders, somehow bothering that things don't turn out as perfect as you want them to be makes me always force myself to actually go and work on my projects, being a gamer means I don't see Blender as the best way to spend time. Idk, perhaps when I have a bit more skill I'll enjoy it more. Cause now I don't like even looking back at my work, cause I just don't think I made it good enough. (I remember when I was scared of nodes, now I just build huge trees of nodes to get some effects).
So I think I face same problems as other artists - you can't really enjoy if you aren't sure you are making a great job, and that takes years to achieve. Unless though you make some simple stuff that doesn't takes much time to get good at. But 3D isn't the field anymore where you can be successful with knowing only a few things and skills. And I fell sorry for those that just don't know what to do and aim for some kind of top that takes... decades for fuck sake to get to. Also doing things like daily/weekly challenges.. gosh, what a waste. I only spend time doing things that I know people will appreciate and pay for. Idk, it feels complicated even though I have everything as good as it can be, but those other guys.. not knowing what you aim for and when you will get there.. gosh, such a mess. I mean somehow there is so much people in this field that you can't make simple things and make a living with it, it is a race to be great now, that's messed up. The only ones that make it to the top are actually the guys that enjoy this stuff. That's what allows them to make a insanely long way to success that any other person wouldn't make unless they love it.
@@samhamsord7942 well that's usually the basics, its not a field you should invest your time in if you dont enjoy it, because then it will negatively affect your look on things and your progress
it is cool to watch this retrospective of your journey!
it is all about dedication and hard work!
You have clearly come along way well done
Like I always say u are one of my favorite content creator on UA-cam.
And this video shows why u are amazing.
To learn something, we have to practice our skills and with time, we ourselves and also others can see the difference.
Lots of Love from India.
And Happy New Year brother. 👍👍👍
wow its amazing for a fact some renders were self taught its mind blowing how far you have come
happy holidays and have a wonderful happy new year 💪🏽❤❤
Morning CG Greek you the greatest!! Safe and Happy Holidays 🙏🏾 Thanks for sharing all that You Do👏🏾🥰💯

Just finding Blender a couple of years ago Lovin it!! I want to Thank you for taking the time out to Help me wanting to be better and applying it to second life 🙏🏾👏🏾🥰💯💎
I love to see the journey of every 3D Artist out there. It's fascinating every time.
I'm on year 1 and learning about bool. enjoying every minute of that. constant moments of "Wait you can do that!".
i was trying 3d animation for 1year then 1 day i stubbed upon ur channel and i am making improvements now thanks man
Hey i am one of your biggest fan I have been in love with 3d animation and even want to make a game but due to my parent financial crisis I am unable to get a laptop but still watching your videos gives me happiness like I am doing the 3d animation
:D nice Been really nice to see your growth as a 3D artist gives me the drive to learn more and improve as well in due time. :o also that laptop looks pretty slick It would be nice to try out Cycles X since right now my current rig while good does not have an RTX but a GTX.
What a journey. With patience and practice, one can achieve great results. You are a live example of that. ❤️
Oh my fokin god, the 2021 projects are SO INCREDIBLE
I started around the same time as you and while I'm really happy for you I'm saddened to see where I could have been. Don't ever let your parents stop you from doing what you love, which was "playing video games all day"
wish happy new year and advance congratulations for reaching 1million mark very soon, you helped us with your learning thanks
Almost 1m subs!!! been here since like 200k!
You're fabulous dude!
so that means your skill level at one point in time was same as mine. That is so inspiring
Excellent work! Very inspiring!!
I had followed your channel for years ago and I have learned a lot
You sure have gone a long way
Congrats being pro in Blender 👏👏
The Journey Of a Great Artist!!
Unbelievable work
you’re so talented, I mean when I saw your animations, I thought they were real, they are just so good! I will not even have a half of you’re talent in a million years-
btw I’m a new subscriber:)
Wow, thank you!
Woah you came back yeah
I first started working in Cinam4D R16, from 2016 to 2019, then I switched to blender 2.79 and when Blender 2.8 came out, I have improved a lot since then.
i can totally relate! :) also so much more fun!
I'm learning lots of lots of new ideas from you.....
Thanks 👍😊👍😊👍
Thank you very much
You are crazy, the best in blender, you are my favorite teacher
This is some high-quality stuff. Noice
That LAVA animation looked mmmm So Good !
Bro the best animator I have ever seen much love
Amazing work
Ha ha ha, getting caught up in details, why I did nothing but mushrooms & trees for ages, until I realized, like you, one needs to look at the bigger picture. Entering contests: I have just begun to do that, and since then, I have covered more ground and experimented with more of Blender's tools in the last few months than I did in the last few years. Now if I could only get a handle on lighting and composition. Your channel has been one of my favorites through it all. Thanks for your good work.
heppy new year cg geek even tough its 4 day later pls make a cool happy 2022 firework render
Thanks cg greek i also wanted to become an 3d artist you and peter france were the first to inspire me to use blender
I mean great work u have been the greatest help for me and the only reason i got this far in 3D, thank u so much for the help.
That was a pretty good joke with the Christmas lights. I often have a similar thought: If there are those awful or tedious moments of your life where you wish you could just magically fast-forward... you have to go through whatever it is you would be fast-forwarding anyway, in order to have the 'footage' to fast-forward through. So, you might as well make the most of every moment- and maybe make any changes and jump-cuts in post-production.
And my journey of 1 year will be completed by these new year! Thank you because you were my inspiration!
That's awesome.. would love to see your 1 year progression!
Sure I will!
Thanks man
Awesome!!
YEAHHH
thank you for your advices
Its been a year or so since the first time i ever touched blender. Hopefully my animations get better throughout the coming years
