This is the best looping RGB shader I've seen so far. I was really stuck on how to loop the color ramp in a way that looks nice and doesn't take too much time. Thanks man!

Use can see the Emission in Eevee by turning on Bloom in Render Settings. Also dont forget to turn on screen space reflections!!

Well, I'm just a 1 week blender beginner, 3 hours passed but I finally finished fixing my mesh, now I have a 3d model with good geometry ready to add those nodes! thank you very much excellent tutorial

[jhnart]

Return of the king!! So happy that there is another upload!! Keep it up!

[krissosful]

Amazing job!! The keyboard looks so realistic and the explanation is well constructed:) Keep going!

[ahmedkhalil]

hi nice work ill give nice trick you can use driver in mapping node in location type(# frame*0.1) the number is the speed

[lassekalhauge]

Awesome tutorial - love it. Keep up the good work♥

Hi! It's a great video because I want to do the same thing.

I suggest you make available the Python script that creates this keys and keyboard. Some users, like me, use Python scritps to create Blender object.
It's easy! As you know Blender generates a Python script for each of your actions. See Info view.

You can choose to publish the Info logs raw (now editing) or if you are a Python programmer you can simplify it and structure it by separating parts of the construction into functions. Either way is good for me.

That would be very useful to many viewers.

*Tip* : 5:48 the color channel did not work with the image texture node. I had to use the alpha channel and plug that into the Fac on the MixShader

Can you make a video on reflection map and baking it ?? I have some doubts there and your vids can clear those :)

[dreamedfoxanimations]

I love how you made the image references Downloadable 😅

After I made a low poly keyboard I being thinking on make a more realistic one, but put the key letters was a pain in my low poly keyboar, but Thanks for the video is go to be useful for what I wan to do. Thanks and have a nice day.

for all beginners who just started with blender... RUN AWAY

[MrWarriorBD]

can you share with me how to make realistic bottle cap thread? where the beginning and ending smoothly match the bottle body...

[kirukato]

Hi!!! I didn't understand the extrude part, do I extrude before or after making the cuts? 1:37

[sevenmaggots]

gorgeous. ill have some fun time today, thank you!

[ProRylan]

Amazing stuff,
But i got lost at 2:15 you was clicking to many things to quick and not explaining enuff, you should remake this Tutorial but explain more and go bit slower, i think alot of new people to blender would love to do this one, im still Beginner but cudnt finish this one, good stuff though i know takes alot of time to make stuff for youtube

[jakebob]

Godamnit! I need to make one to use for blender! Not make it in blender its too dark in my house!

[aivarassamauskas]

stupid question, but how do i change the direction of it instead from right to left to go from bottom to top etc etc. I didnt use UV as texture coordinate, i use Normals cuz of my model (making channel letters running rgb effect).
