Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to share what you made with me either on Instagram @james_films or by linking it here! Can't wait to see what you come up with :)
you know using the primitive cube is a holy sin
I think that's a misunderstanding of old scriptures. Recent empirical studies indicate a small increase in good karma if you don't delete the cube.
@@juutuub0 the default cube is full of sin, it's deletion and recreation is done in absolution.
Im going to proceed to only use cubes from now on
maybe ill make a multi-million dollar game :o
No default cubes can be deleted, nor created. They just are within us.
Well, half of my projects i started with the default cube
Behold the tame impala covers!
Damn you beat me to it
hey could you turn on the overlay that lets us see what you are pressing because rn its really confusing to see what you are doing
yeah boi
One of the best blender tutorials I’ve seen, great work
I've been following your posts on r/Blender and been waiting for this! Thank you sir!
Came for the sand tutorial, stayed for tips for improved lighting! Thank you for sharing :)
This is amazing. I can't believe how effectively you've taught all these concepts in such a short video
Lots of good stuff in here! Appreciate it!
Finally, this is what I was looking for
Thank you so much, it looks beautiful
This is amazing. Good job!
It’s what i really wanted to know. Thanks!!
these are some incredible lighting damn!
Your blender environment videos are unmatched. The dreamy liminial atmosphere of each one is incredible...please don't stop making these tutorials
For the random light streaks in the volumetric, one can also use a noise texture with the density and volumetric shadows enabled; this is more accurate to the natural random fog. Great tutorial btw!
Thanks man!! Great tutorial
I love it when I come across a random video that answers %90 of my thoughts in Blender. You sir are amazing! Well "digestive" content. Subbed.
realy great work man!!!
So much good info in this. Thank you!!!
GREAT tutorial
Dude, had no idea about blenderkit. Thank you so much for this tutorial, blenderkit just changed my game
This is very helpful thank you!!
Thank you for this tutorial
This really helped me, thank you so much.
This is awesome
this is so awesome
excellent tutorial.
Man! You are Awesome!
Glad to have found your channel 🙏🙏
This was actually really enjoyable to just watch, and not follow. Your calm voice and the optimistic mood is really quite soothing :)
Aww thank you!! Means a lot :)
You Sir, have made my day.
Thank you soooooo much.
wow! thanks so much dude!
Keep up the good work
Thanks for the tutorial really helpful 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Be sure to share what you created!
I love this! To the point any beyond :)
omg this is gold
you are a genius
Thank you so much.
This tut comes quiet handy as I‘m currently setting up a scene for my 25pdr WW2 field gun in the NA desert. Thx and well done !
Awesome tutorial, watching all the way from Namibia..
thank u so much!!
great one. You deserve more subs man!!!
Your channel is underrated, awesome!
Cheers! Slowing growing on here :)
For zeroing out values (like when resetting the camera's location) you can press backspace while hovering over the value
Hello James, not so easy to follow for a beginner, but by working passionately we find a lot of tips that make progress, thank you and have a great evening
Agreed. I have to keep pausing and rewinding in order to follow suite. But I like the style of it.
Nice finally got my scene looking the way i imagined it, thank you!!!
That's awesome to hear! Link it here - I'd love to see the result!
@@James_Films instagram.com/p/CEUiRJGDcie/?igshid=wr4lpyputdkq
I used the volumetric lighting technique thank you
Love Sossusvlei. Absolute Gem
Thank you sir😊
thanks dude, i gonna create my own
The gobo trick is really useful
Use ctrl+b to limit the render area alt+ctrl+b to disable
Super - easy to follow - and so good! Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Easy to follow"
I have to rewind every 5 seconds
Thank you:)
Great tutorial, so much I've learned from this one video. :O
awesome please do more! The only thing i got such on was the volumetrics part at the end i could not get the rays to show, then watching closly i saw you cranked the sun light to 45 and that did the trick!
Awesome!! Glad that trick worked for you!
@@James_Films keep up the great work!
Thx man
Awesome tutorial !! Had a lot of fun making my own sandy render and learnt a lot along the way =D
Would love to see the result! Glad you enjoyed this :)
@@James_Films imgur.com/a/zAjJaDJ I don't have any socials so I hope the imgur link will suffice!
thank you so much for this tutorial! You are great at explaining and I just love the artistic angle you bring to it and that you are willing to share your "secrets" is really kind of you. I know a lot of artists who think if they explain how they do things it will make them somehow less (worth less, less interesting, less magic,... I don't know how exactly to explain, I'm sure you've met the type though).
Fun fact: I've been admiring your work on instagram for months and since I'm only now starting on 3D and I come from the Photoshop side of things it never crossed my mind before that this could actually be 3D - I always thought it was "just" a clever edit with stock images and Photoshop. I tried to find stock photos that would work to create something like this but just couldn't figure it out. Since it was never on my top priorities list or anything, it was much less dramatic than it might sound here, just something kinda nagging at me. Then when I started with blender around Christmas I started to view your images in that new light and realized you were using blender (first time actually looking through the tags... yeah, I know ^^). But it took me searching on youtube for "sand scene in blender" to find this tutorial -- imagine my surprise when it was you teaching and sharing your tricks :D Thank you again, so cool!
this is an incredible tutorial bro!...i kinda like it better without volumetrics cause that beautiful sunset background was more visible, with volumetrics it looked a lil bit too perfect and kinda heavily edited. idk great stuff learned alot.
Thanks! Yeah I figured I'd show how to add volumetrics in case you'd like to apply it to this or other creations
3:54 scared me to death, but I really enjoyed the video, very informative. Thank you!
Hoping to save you from the horrors of searching through hundreds of layers named "PLANE.001, PLANE.002, PLANE.003........" to find the one you're looking for haha!
that`s so cool, remind me of tame impala
Ahh!! you cool man XD
Very well done and you have a pleasant way of presenting! I have been looking for a good sand tutorial, so thank you! Only minor criticisim I have is about those audio bumps, not sure if it's you hitting the mic or what but those are quite distracting and not pleasant especially while using headphones, otherwise good work! Thank you for sharing your art and knowledge!
hi James Thank you for sharing your process! I really like your renders. not sure if you knew, but there's a great free add-on archimesh that allow us to quickly create doors, window etc. : )
Tks Bro super útil
you can add noise shader to the light instead using gobo effect
16:30 perfect pronunciation of Mont Saint-Michel! 🤩
ikr was looking for someone who noticed it
The slow rush :D
A little fast paced but really nice tutorial!
Wayyy too fast paced
Very very noice
man I wish there were mesh modeling tools similar to this for CAD programs like solidworks, that way you could mix exact models with organic models for scenes
@Alex Alfons Use Rhino and mix up a bit
Please add lots of surrealism tutorial using blender ♥️
Hey loved the tutorial, so I'm trying to recreate the volume gobo but the the shadows that the gobo projects are too harsh, your render does not seem to have that problem, how do i get rid of that?
the first displacement voronoi is way larger than yours, I am not sure what I did wrong I followed the steps please help
I think I figured it out, make sure if you scale the plane up in object mode that you apply the scale in edit mode. Ctrl + A in edit mode. Or you can just scale inside of the edit mode :)
@@FinnyPlartz Thanks! I was struggling trying to find out where did I go wrong lol
@@FinnyPlartz you saved my time love you .
This tutorial is sooo good that it gave me workflow glimpse👍👍👍..I'll tag you😉..but it's not your tutorial level be aware hahaah
I have an issue with the displacement textures. The first Voronoi y use is totally different, as if flipped. Does anyone have this problem too?
2:15 The righmost bottom corner image is the windows 10 wallapper
If you zoom In you can see that there are many many default cubes
Nice to meet you. I'm watching the video and practicing!
My question is, the chair I selected in blenderkit from 17:00 is transparent.
Please let me know if you know how to fix it.
with so many possibilities. I also tried so called best free DAW programs (if I managed to at least install it h Cakewalk) and I didnt like
Hey man, I loved this tutorial and the render, thank you for this! I wanted to ask what your computer specs are because rendering stuff on my Imac completely decimates my computer and to work in Blender I was thinking of trading this in and build my own PC, thanks bro!
can u pls tell me how did u remove shadows of scarttring on wall, while sun rays are scrattring??
Bro in new to this I’ve been doing step by step the exact same thing but for some reason the plane turns into a crystal deformity 💀😂
Hey I just liked this and wanted to make something like this what kind of system specs do you have?(for reference)
whats the difference and uses for the principle volume vs the volume scatter? I looked it up but im too new to understand what the other words theyre referencing really mean. Does the principle just have more you can do with it, since like i saw there is a spot for emission that volume scatter is missing
Tame Impala!!
It never occurred to my dumbass that Blender-kit also had materials. Thanks a lot James.
how do you open the face context menu
can someone plz tell me what happened there 12:18 what mode did he go to
Can you do something like very easy for beginners to understand?
I can’t get the footprint displacement? When I click on the link it doesn’t appear. Is it an old link or can you send it to me? Many thanks. Great tutorial
@james tralie At 3:02, how do you snap the bottom of the object to the center (0,0,0)?
I think the audio is desynced from the actions. It feels like you say what you've already just done. Like really cool stuff you're doing but it's really hard to keep up with it since I hear you say something and then have to rewind video each time to actually see you do it haha.
what makes the room so bright? mine is still dark
good afternoon. unfortunately, the plane of the sky is blocking the light and I can't turn it on. the sky plane settings do not match the settings from the video. please tell me how to fix this in blender version 2.93. thank you
Does anyone know why when i use the inflate brush with the displacement deactivated ( on 5:35 ) everything looks fine, but as soon as i activate the displacement again everything looks like a mess? pls help i can't find my error.
I’m having the same issue. Did you solve it?
youll need to turn down strength on the displace
The displacement doesnt work properly in blender 4.0 with the footprints...
I couldn't scale/apply the UV thingy at 9:00 !! Do you have any fix for that?
Amazing, thanks for sharing. I've had the same problem others have commented on, when applying the Voronoi displacement texture it looks crazy, not similar to your tutorial, wondering what went wrong.
hey did you ever figure out the solution? I'm trying to do this now and I am having the same issue :(
@@davidrivas4758 you have to rescale the plane to 1 before adding modifier
@@hoorains1333 how?
@@sundayblues to scale it: ctrl A > click on scale should do the trick ;)
Apply scale control A before adding displacement!
Please answer me, I don't have a button on the right "blender", but only 3 "vie", "tool" and "item" on the panel when you added the sand texture. Tell me how to activate it, please
Dunno if you still need it, but BlenderKit is an addon, it's not there by default.
To get it, go to Edit - Preferences - Add-ons, then type "BlenderKit". It should show up now on the right.
