3D model character creation in blender, increased speed

[nikos677]

Tutorial?

[SuperNEKO64]

is this x16?

[nikos677]

@SuperNEKO64 For a nice speed moddeling x16 is perfect.....x8 is too slow!

[ZoyncTV]

hello anyone that is still watching this old blender vid, I'm going through the basics of character creation right now at /watch?v=l2AN_suywZc they progressively get more complex, so experienced users can watch too! :)

[BrokeStringGuitarist]

Dude Thats Pro!

[snarky132]

I downloaded this video and made it slower... :D

Very Good job! Keep up good work!

[Trashcansam123]

Yeah I've got nothing going on in my life. I'm decent at drawing, I go to a school for that. but I don't have any experience with computer works. And if I want to make commissions, I can't do it with my hands (a shame for the oldschool artists).

[lelu1010pes]

do you have the slow version ? :D

[AstralAbraxas]

So do you recommend starting out with as little detail as possible in the beginning and going back and filling the detail in? Because the problem I have is attaching limbs and keeping the topology nice...

[JilutheFang]

When these blocks stacked to a human shape and then were subdivided and further edited, I suddenly realised that the "Plane" mesh was not the right start for my character.

Awesome! :D

[LeviBarros25]

Holy shit you are a PRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kyy656]

YO! wanna check out what I HAVE done in pure blender, some of works postmodeled in fucking zBrush, mostly i use zbrush for norm/bump mapping and speculars, but sometimes i get wild

[Toqwert33]

@Draigliar wireframe= press z or the button by the edit/ object mode...

[Draigliar]

I'm new to Blender. like... just downloaded it like four hours ago. and I have a really newbie sounding question..... What the hell is a wire frame and how do I get to it in the 2.58 version?!

[outdatedinvalidname]

how did you make those instant cubes? pleas answer!!!?

[Ragor005]

you are a blender-pro!!!!

[someSHET]

AHHHHG! u cut off his head for a sec

[someSHET]

the first few seconds u modeled a butt :D

[MultiMirs]

how much time did it take? 12hours or even a week?

[ItsNateBro]

Im making a character in blender and i wanted to know how to give the character more deffinition in his face and muscles. i was wondering if you could put a link on your website or makee a tutorial on how to do that. Also how to smothen out the skin of the character so it will not look boxes

[cubeolution]

@ItsNateBro To make the mesh smooth in blender 2.5 you need to select the mesh you want smooth then under shading select smooth button... the flat button will take it away. A good way to get the propper facial muscles is to look at human anatomy and study it, takes practice and I suck at making faces and drawing them always have its actually somthing I struggle to do and takes me usualy the most time.

[bohgirl11]

At least you warned us that it would be fast, but you didn't warn us about the massive eye headache we'd get while watching it. :-)

[rotsebanotman]

increased speed? this is fucking insanity speed

[IceDrake071]

@cubeolution -Do you recommend a tutorial to create a 3D model of this quality? I'm a high school student and I'm looking into getting into this for a career, the more I learn now the better. Any recommendations would be appreciated for a novice such as myself, thank you.

[cubeolution]

@IceDrake071 blendercookie has a decent one on female modeling that's worth checking out in blender 2.5, If you are using max the Joan of arc one is ok you can find that one on 3Dtotal, Good luck hope that helps .

[MrKashaTV]

I know

[GuitaReece]

This video is very helpful, thanks! :) (Y)

[junutci]

i laughed so hard at the square ass!

[keane217]

lolol didn't notice the comment underneath bahahahahaha

[keane217]

MrDillon66 said out a download up that would be nice

[MrDillon66]

Wwwow!! Could you do me a favor? Put it up for download. I really need a character model to play around with :) Any where I show it with an animation though, I'll be sure to give credit to you for the wonderful model of a character.

[cubeolution]

@MrDillon66 Sure can the link is on my website in the description it is in .obj format so you can import it into any 3D program.

[MrDillon66]

@cubeolution It wont go into Blender properly :( How do I do it???

[cubeolution]

@MrDillon66 After downloading extract from the zip file on your desktop then fire up blender, go to file select import then select wavefront (.obj) hope that helps.

[cubeolution]

I finally recovered the file thanks for your patience!

If you guys would like to have the model to create your own characters using it as a base model go to the link in my description thanks for all the great comments guys!

Какую траву курил автор? Можно помедленнее?

[codecrax]

fantastic an' all, but I can't even do half the tools you've been using, I am not going to pay for the damn videos! I need halp!

[cubeolution]

@codecrax It just takes time I been blending for 7+ years off and on and i still have tons to learn myself

[PureT3x4n]

/watch?v=uHyon0gclOw

Best blender 3d human modeling tutorial!

[Vicioushappyface]

Hey nice work ! I just have a question :

What material did you use ? Just a mouse and a keyboard ? Or did you use any kind of touchpad or anything ?

Regard.

[cubeolution]

@Vicioushappyface just the mouse and keyboard

[avataraviator]

are you just using a mirror modifier, extruding and sculpting the cube?

[nabakoful]

nice



[JoshGProductions]

It isn't on the website?

[cubeolution]

@JoshGProductions sorry it is now

[GothBunniGoGo]

also-- r u using a mirror tool of some sort? if you are can u tell me how? D:

[cubeolution]

@GothBunniGoGo no i probably should have i was using an old school method of duplicating and mirroring then merging the sides.

[GothBunniGoGo]

... ever look at somethin so awesome u wanna cry...?

I did when i saw this. :O my dream for future is to work in animation like for gaming or movies or something... but only recently have i gotten serious about it. I decided to pick up blender(cuz its free) and was like "well i wanna know how to make toons first" so i looked it up and this shows!?!? epic man, seriously epic. i can only hope one day i can be that good at it :) ...character creation that is o.o

[LordVercetti]

well, I am still learning how to use blender and i did some sort of model of my own (it was horrible) but this vid actually helped me alot and gave me will to continue practice... thanks man!

[XXFailzzzXX]

5/5 :D

[RockerzEntertainment]

how much did this actually take?

[d3sertst0rm]

thanks this actually was really helpful. Showed me how to model hands, which i always have a hard time doing

[XORIOTMANOX]

how did you get it to mirror what you was doing

[d3sertst0rm]

@XORIOTMANOX using the mirror modifier. you delete half of the object exactly, then add a mirror modifier in the modifier panel

[rocknroll980]

Which version are you using, looks alot simpler and easier to make models with, im using 2.6, and it is far to complicated and not easy at all to use.

[TWILisawesome]

Can you show us how you make a cube, in increased speed?

[patolorde]

GReat

[MonttuMachine]

Details details details.

[AdamellyProductions]

Great video!! Just started to learn about animation modeling and love your work!

[j00tt]

Does a 3D model made with blender work on java?

[Wireheadking]

@j00tt I though Java was a programming language like C++ and Python and that stuff.

[rocknroll980]

@Wireheadking Java IS a programming language, hes asking if its possible to code it with java.

[Drag0nR]

Lol just cut out the half then In the modifier panel choose mirror modifier

You can google blender mirror modifier if you'de like

[SPcopyright]

wow, this is amazing. I could probably never do this.

[thekingstonshow]

@SPcopyright yes u can, theres a step by step tutorial on the site it self that show u how to di this.

[anastasiszaro]

can you upload it so that we can download it

[Felixfors]

nice man Gj ! : D that is amazing

[Felixfors]

Nice model and good job man : ) but why didnt you use mirror modifier ^^?

[thecooldude0597]

Hey! Awesome character! You must have like two PHD's in CG! One thing though, I wasn't able to find your character on cgbliss.com. Could you help me?

Awesome!! I'm definitely a fan :)

[Andreas958]

[Gamerdad81]

did you use a subsurf on him to round things out or did you just "set smooth"?

[sidneyramonmeyers]

How do you pull that shape from the cube? :(

[MrDrMIlk]

omg u are mint I bet that took you ages omg

[812any]

he did that all with one cube lol nice :D

[garuga0777]

i just got blender and i find it fun but difficult, will it eventually get easier?

[zulonz]

@garuga0777 its just like everything else, sports, video games. it just takes practice.

[haidan123]

great artist this skill can get you places i should think ! i think the main part of being a game animaition any kind of artist is GIVEING YOURSELF A CHANCE TO LEARN!! this is great dont get me wrong but dnt get mad when you cannot replicate what this person has done im sure its taken him a while to get this good :D

[warkey13]

can you do this to a slowly tutorial?

[MetalNat11593]

I love it! Id give you 5 stars...if there were still stars to rate it :(..but, I gave you a thumbs up :)

[Akoa0013]

EPIC!!!!! 0_0

[thekingstonshow]

[dj02tc5]

[Tinak00777]

[xifeelsick]

man, can you make me a tutorial?

Im new to blender.

I dont know how to duplicate and rotate and attach two halves together. And making cuts and snapping or whatever..

And a bunch of other stuff... AGH! the interface is so difficult and you make it look so easy.

[saderguy]

How long have you been using Blender? I must know.

[barberino182]

Guys if any1 can help that would be great... i tried downloading the free trial of this since i need ity for my univericty course but it wont load up now says its not supported or somthing. anyone know how i could get it working or where else i could get a copy of this program? thanks!

[saderguy]

@barberino182 Free trial? Blender? There is no cost to download blender.

[barberino182]

@saderguy need maya since its the program i use an univercity

[nickihermosilla]

i dot find it on your webpage :(

[CoolMuslimsAtWare]

thats vary good do u know a program cold silo

[walter0bz]

does blender have a symmetry modelling mode

[cubeolution]

Yes is does :) Blender has it all.

[Drag0nR]

@walter0bz Mirror mode is a modellers best friend :D

[AidenRuLeZ333]

@Drag0nR how do you get in mirror mode? im still learning and knowing that could help me alot, thanx

[MrFamicom01]

Great video. I just have a question. Why did you take the time (in the beginning of the video) to create the whole character, then delete half of him and use symmetry to mirror his other half? Why didn't you just make half of him from the start, then mirror at the very end?

[CountVaatiVaporpaw]

Great vid! ^^ the idea that such a well animated model originated from the default cube is mind-blowing! but how do you do that trick where you remove half and paste the mirror image? I can't seem to find a tutorial anywhere that covers it.

[cubeolution]

It is simple to do i might make a quick tutorial on it.... if I don't see a decent one.

[WONandDONE]

its simple, you just go to ad modifier, and then click on mirror

[guthixXXL]

@CountVaatiVaporpaw if you didn't find out yet how to mirror an object, I was able to stop the vid at the point where he did it: you select the whole mesh, press shift+D to copy, then you go on the menu bar right under the 3D-screen; the third one on the left called "Mesh" is the one you want. so you go Mesh-> Mirror-> the direction you want to mirror it in; I couldn't find out what the difference between "local" and "global" is though.

[CenSilver]

@CountVaatiVaporpaw Blendtuts my friend... Blendtuts... : )

[AIPThePharaoh]

Wow... I appreciate your work. It's impressing. You have done a wonderfull job!!!:) Just 1 question: how much time did you spent on this character( without speeding up)? :) 5*****

[cubeolution]

It took me a few hours :)

[jasen97]

hey cubeolution can i use that for a game i will selll? i will change it and i will put ur name in creds...(if i can figure out how to do credits) :)
