Kev thanks for creating the materials from scratch in blender instead of making some sensational title and then directing everyone to a website that sells a material texture to use effectively pay wall blocking us. It is really helpful and I learned a little bit more about it the way you did it
Your tutorials are the future. Things that would have taken 30 minutes to an hour for a UA-camr to explain have been shortened to a mere 5 minutes. Thank you 😊
Thank you! I’ve been struggling with a format that will work for things that have so many steps but keep people interested. I’m constantly refining and hopefully “getting closer.” 😀
There's also IanHubert making 1-minute super fast tutorials for more intermediate users. At some point we'll get the full range of video lengths from 50-min low-level tutorials to "want moths use boids" "k thx"
Shallow? If you can call my latest video shallow, especially the node part, I don’t know what to tell you other than feeling that I’ve wasted my personal time helping you in the past... nice....
teenstarlets.info no, they are not shallow, they may be quick, but but I think this is a way better type of tutorial. Instead of telling you everything, he encourages you to add to the fairly simple (but great looking scene ) that he has made! Mabye these are not the best for complete beginners, but for intermediates or experienced artists, these are great. You may have your opinion, and that’s ok, but at least show some respect for this guy!👍
I have a question - do you know of a way to create a deep sea underwater effect for an environment? - i'm working on a project and i'm struggling to find a way to make my subjects look immersed in deep murky water. Any thoughts? (or if BlenderBinge doesn't see this, can anyone else help?)
I see this. That’s actually my next video I believe, but shhhhh ;). I have 3 I’ve said I’d do, so it’s on the list. I’d create some sort of ground and use volumes to simulate the murkiness. Objects will move into fog and make it work. I have some tricks for other things you’d see under there as well. The volumes are key.
Lol! Nah, I’m not competing with him. It seems that we have a similar level and years of experience as generalists, but he has real street cred with Blender. He actually directed a Blender open movie in 2012. I was leading a Maya centric team back then in a Fortune 50 company and not using Blender at all yet lol. Thanks!!
Only made it through the first minute before I got distracted and started animating a storm on my planets surface by adding a texture mapping to the musgrave and rotating that in sync with the rotation of the rings and adding some math nodes to the distortion to give a little stormy look... in other words... I got inspired following the beginning of this tutorial and am pretty excited with what it started. Have yourself a like and a subscribe my friend. Thanks for your work.
That’s awesome!!!!! I’d love to see it when you finish. If you’re tackling math nodes, it’s probably going to look amazing. Thanks for sharing, and welcome aboard!! 😀😀
@@KevBinge I think different people will have their own preferences. I like time to follow along so your chat is welcome for me as it gives me time to catch-up.
That’s cool. I still plan on longer videos as well. I have a few planned that will need to be that way 😀. Thanks for your honesty. I appreciate it and it helps!
This is awesome dude thank you so much ;) I just started with blender yesterday and I got a saturn look alike in 3 hours thanks to your tutorial (not as refined as yours but it will come!). This is awesome. Subscribed
That’s great to hear! You’ll see that your refined look will come faster than you think, then you’ll plateau, then move forward again lol. I’m happy to help!
@@KevBinge right click menu is something theyve needed in blender for a long time, they really needed to make blender act like all other programs do, and with 2.8 theyve made massive steps in that direction thankfully.
Looks like Ian Hubert has set the trend that other tutorial creators are following. Loved your tutorials regardless, but shorter and more to the point is better! :)
It’s more of seeing what the community , especially intermediate users really want. Instagram forces you into 1 minute, so he did that there, put it on UA-cam, and set a bar for that style. I still think 10-15 minutes give people more detail and better foundation, but it’s a trend that people crave. I wouldn’t do this style for pure beginners though as many would just throw their hands up and give up out of frustration. It’s about balance. Thanks!!
I did it got all the way to the rocks duplicating them then I get crashes after 4 or 5 times I finally made it to the end learning more now about the nodes shading and rendering. Now every step I take I save it. And I put all my work on a Dvd flash drive so I can keep my computer clean. Thanks bud
Can you make a more generalized nodes tutorial, explaining what the different nodes do and how to come up with a node setup for your specific use case? That would be awesome.
Great tutorial! I don't suppose you can clarify making the rings or give the exact values could you? (2:05-2:19). I'm having a helluva time getting my torus stretched so thin like that.
That's quite decent, but the rings should be much more dense. Also, I'd suggest using an actual ring as an emitter and not a circle, for realism's sake. The reason is gravity. Gas giants have immense gravitational force and the objects that get too close to them are just torn to shreds. That's why there is usually a clear gap between the rings and the planet itself. Also, there is a show emitter check in the viewport display section of the particles tab which is responsible for showcasing the emitter in viewport exclusively. Hope that helps ^_^
That helps a whole lot. I was going more dense until my computer was crawling. I had a ring in there with noise in addition to the dust but it was killing the sun affect and I wanted to actually finish a video. Thanks for your explanation. The clear area always made me question it. I figured it might be gravity but had no idea and never looked it up. It all helps. Thanks!!
Tutorial was hard to follow a few times but love this style I learned so much thank you! Having a problem with my asteroids not rendering when I make them smaller, wondering if anyone had any idea why?
Really nice tutor, very big thanx!! But can you explain in more detail what you did with the torus on 2:14 , How did you "scale it down and scale it out" creating a disk from ring (torus)??
Thanks for the QnD tut Kev, I'm working on a couple personal projects that will eventually make it to my highlight reel. The shorts I'm working on involve little Grogu and his misadventures. Being able to create multiple crazy looking worlds is a necessity for a Star Wars themed short dontchathink? So thank you for this, I certainly appreciate it my dude. As I tell my Blender friends and fam, Keep on Blendin' brotha!
Hi! Thank you so much for this quick and amazing tutorial! As a new Blender user these kind of videos inspire me so so much! Since I'm a beginner I got stuck in a step so I would love it if you could help, right when creating a Torus, I do the Major/Minor Exterior/Interior settings, scale it down and back up but the ring comes empty inside no matter what. Like it is still a ring and the inside of it is empty. Is there a way to fix that? Thanks a lot!
Thanks! In hindsight, I wouldn’t do the radius thing, I’d just flatten out the normal torus and scale it out. Another commenter generously explained why there would be an empty space near the planet due to extreme gravity, so I’d leave that space there, and a normal torus will give you that. Does that help?
@@KevBinge Hi! Thanks for responding to me! I think I failed to ask my question properly, what I meant was I was having a problem "flatting" my torus. I do what you show me and when I scale it back up it doesn't come back as a "disk", it still looks like a bigger version of 2:11
Ahhh... I get it. Hit shift + spacebar and choose scale. That should give you the manipulator handles. You could also hit “n” on the keyboard with the torus selected, and on the Z scale, enter like .001 or something small.
Yeah, I went a bit fast. To do that, first adjust the inner diameter to make it a bit wider in the properties , then just scale it down on the z axis and out on the x and y. That makes it flat with a wider inner radius, if that helps?
@@KevBinge Thank you man for the tutorials, the final piece was great, hair particle system and all with dust, how you can model a gas planet, didn't manage to do it but I created a ring!
You make it look so goddam easy lol! I've only been using Blender for about a month or two and I've been trying to tackle procedural texturing, figured it would be a good idea for some reason! Just about starting to understand it though, and tutorials like this are the reason why. Definitely giving this a try, thanks for the lesson
