Wow, an actual tutorial that teaches the software, and not hyperfocused on photorealism being a beginner thing! I must be dreaming!

I stopped using Blender for a while and I just needed a quick recap of the basic controls without going on a deep overview of the software and this helped me A LOT. THANK YOU.

[EpicTaarna]

Thank you for starting at the very basics. Its refreshing to click on a tutorial that doesn't treat beginners like they know everything or jump straight into modelling.

Just getting back into Blender after an 18 year hiatus. It sure has changed and I have lost most of what I did know back then. But thanks to you it's all coming back now. Back then you couldn't even undo. you had to constantly save so if you screwed up you could just close out and reopen the last saved good one.

I wish there were more tutorials like this that appeal to those of us who are brand new to 3D platforms. I'd love to see more tutorials like this. Thank you.

Thank you so much, I am just starting out and need this so much, I am trying to build my own game for my daughter and her friends, and I don't really like using the free models in Roblox Studio, so this is super helpful, thank you so much.

[Ulliverus]

Wow, you actually saved my life. I am very new to blender, downloaded it yesterday.
Found many turtorials of people yapping about random stuff whilst i didn't even know how to create something else than a cube...

You really helped me out a ton, thank you so much :)

THIS IS ACTUALLY SO NICE AND EASY TO USE DUE TO HIS AMAZING EXPLAINATION THAT WE ALL WANTED.

[Neptune]

I used to be able to make models like you, but then I stopped using blender for like a year then I reinstalled it and I forgot everything I learned from you, thank you for this

[davd]

Oh god, i needed this
EDIT: Thanks for the likes

[copperkelp]

Nice tutorial! Really understood it. Liked the fact that you focused on actually teaching the basics than teaching how to make a doughnut

[deathbringerdragon]

this taught me 20 times more stuff in a much easier to understand way and shorter amount of time than the several 20 minute + long professional blender tutorials i watched before.

[Timbsta]

Ive learned so much the past 1/2 weeks by watching u and many other creators

[isaiaharagon]

Appreciate this. I took a few 3d modeling classes through fullsail. they taught maya. now out of school im not wanting to pay 1500 per year for a maya subscription so learning to transition to blender

[tammydesigns]

so many " oh, that's how you do that" came out of my mouth. thanks

[savage]

3 years later and still one of the better tutorials for blender. thanks friend.

[notbread]

Honestly this is one of the best tutorials that an beginner modeler can learn from
