The Nordic mythology says that trolls are Giant human looking creatures that turns in to mountians in the sun.... that one didnt even have a single tree on his head

Doesn't have to be that kind of troll.. Maybe it's an internet alien troll, like me? MUHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA...

[Sega1544]

[301million]

what's your problem jack

[Noahwig]

hahahahahahahahahahahaha, wtf!

[tristenmajor]

Wow That Looks Like Yoda !

[onemanarmy675]

how is that spam?

[mrledfeb]

how do u mix colours coz yours has 2 colours or more in the alien please help me

[avideojoe]

I just have multiple blender textures in stacked layers. Each blender texture has its own color (which defaults to hot pink). Just pick a good background default material color and add a few different blender texture layers. You can make some really neat stuff mixing 3 or 4 layers. While this was done with just blender textures, you can use real textures and their transparencies to achieve same types of results.

Happy Blendering!

[COBHCFAN1994]

Is blender easier to use than anim8or?

[dudewithweirdhair]

yes blender is easyier than anim8or

[davvader]

YODAAAAAAAAAA

[Bruticus666]

Great first sculpt! I am amazed!

[CLOFS]

it looks like yoda kinda

[XraklingX]

first sculpt my ass

[avideojoe]

No, I'd rather sculpt an alien troll. =P

[XAutomatedOwnerX]

@avideojoe Lol XD

[basketballdude138]

@avideojoe lololol nice pun to make off a jerk

[Esoxlucius95]

nice, maybe a bit more depth in the face and more deforamties and lines in the forhead and it would look very realistic

[brdhunter3]

YODA !!!!!!!!!!!

[Seizuretoast]

Very nice

[laxwolf]

i suggest fixing the skin relfect on that figure... it doesnt look right.

[2FarClose]

i need help usng blender u look like u know wat ur doing mind giving some tips

[avideojoe]

I'd be happy to answer any specific questions you have, however you'd probably be best served by going through online tutorials. Another great resource, which you can buy on the blender e-shop, is called "the Essential Blender" Its a great book covering the basics, the interface and keyboard shortcuts, ect. I learned a great deal from it. "Bounce, Tumble, and Splash" is also good, but covers more advanced topics. I hope that helps. Good luck and happy blendering!

[Tomy2132]

How many polygons are there in the model???

[avideojoe]

If I'm reading this right, looks like a little over 250,000. This was before I learned about poly reducing and keeping vertices down. It sure is smooth though! hehe

Thanks for watching.

[igetby1125]

deffinately Yoda

[moffboffjoe]

yoda epic fail

[avideojoe]

Any resemblance to yoda is coincidence... the only connecting factor I can think of is I am a child of the 70's and subconsciously pulled a similar image? No fail I assure you...have a good one

[dngl21]

NOT a fail! Anyone who can even turn this application on gets a gold star from me...lol! btw it looks nothing like Yoda. Anyone that knows Star Wars, which thats me, would know Yoda doesn't have a pointed chin & nose, so disregard those comments. To me it resembles a goblin of some kind but overall the model looks great...very creative and has a nice texture form!

[avideojoe]

Thanks!

[KuanDeedee]

haha you got told

[adotaproductions]

move the spec to zero so you dont get such a plasticy look.. good job

[avideojoe]

Yeah I have since learned that one, but I appreciate the positive input. Thanks!

[bart2pl]

bad shader,and terrible texture

[avideojoe]

I'm glad you like it! Anything else positive you'd like to contribute? Roflmao.

[chickenchoppers]

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wow!!!!!!1!!!!1!!!1

[killer64NL]

blender is one wierd program to work with

[avideojoe]

I completely agree. When I first started using it, it felt like a foreign language. But once you get through a few tutorials it starts to come together. Now I feel completely at home in blender and appreciate how it feels the same regardless of what OS I am working in. Once you get over that hump you'll even begin to 'gasp' like it! Thanks for watching!

[ZayLong]

i thought you were making Yoda. lool

[russianbadboy2]

I like maya better :)

I got it cracked and it work perfect

[UshoZeek]

nubittles.

blender ish the win!

[warrat300]

Blender a good program is.

[sk8punk170]

hey nice job =] i just started blender today cant wait till i can do stuff like that and o yeah'

alien troll also known as goblin =p well it looks like that kinda

[avideojoe]

See usmanater response...now THAT looks like Yoda... =)

[BlenderPython]

Sweet

[avideojoe]

I put hair on his ears and a slightly different paint job. (see video response) Still look like yoda?!?! =)

[brunoobao]

its looks lika yoda

but is a good work congratulations

[writing4life123]

what program did you use

[avideojoe]

Its called Blender. It runs on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. Its free and you can download it at blender dot org. Its a little confusing at first, but after you get through a few tutorials you'll be making cool stuff in no time. Good luck!

[DonNixso]

Yey, Yoda!

[ludwigxpaiste]

its yoda

[rejoycement]

grrr.. My sculpt tool makes my computer lag, so everytime I make a small adjustment, I have to wait 5 seconds while my computer catches up, basicly, it takes 5 hours to get a freeking eye

[avideojoe]

Start with few vertices until you get basic model the way you like it. You shouldn't get any lag until you pump up the number of vertices. When you get to that point, you can hide the vertices you aren't using while working on the mesh and improve performance again. As you increase the number of vertices in your mesh, having large system memory helps alot. Good luck!

[dzikiben4]

this is yoda

[InsaneComedy]

I think it does look like yoda.

[raeeees]

nice...

how did you get that see through bit by bit effect?

To improve work a little bit more on 'nor' mapping and experiment with spec. I'll leave it upto you. I think you could do better on there.

Still very good, keep it up!

[avideojoe]

Using the 'build' modifier. Seems like it has limited uses, but still pretty cool.

Yeah, this was my very first sculpt try, so I never went back to it...but I'm tempted to now and setup some rigging and play with shape keys...too much to learn and to little time! Have a good one.

[Janaikana]

hello! It's really great I think, I try, but I can't translate all the words to German, so I's more difficult... But It's great, what you did there... I don't know wether I can do something lika that...the people who say: Oh dear! Thats bad! (or worse) they are stupid and silly, most of them can't do anything with blender!

[avideojoe]

Thanks!

[godthegourd]

haha glad to hear someone who doesnt care that blender isnt full power program.

[BradG902]

Great! ***** How long did it take you to learn Blender and then how long to make this?

[avideojoe]

Well I'm still learning, but it took me about 2 months to get all the basics down pat. The alien troll model only took about 10-20 mins to make with the sculpt tool. The render took much longer.

[ismacou]

we`re not alone hu hu hu huuuu

[DjosueD]

haha, hu hu hu huuu!! X-files!

[ncddavis3]

it looks like yoda

[soulblader7]
