For me and likely many others you have been the Brackeys of Blender.

I started with one of your Udemy courses and later found you on YouTube. Very helpful!

[_blender_man_]

Nice and clean explanation! No „water“ in between, just what you need! Thanks! U a my favorite YouTuber :)

[DaisyStarlightSL]

This is the lifesaver I've been looking for, for YEARS! thank you

[bossl]

Literally been wondering about this today and then your video popped up. Thank you!

[esurfrider]

Brilliant! Hope I remember lattice deform when I need this one! 😁

[ilhanaydn]

I would really like to see a gun modelling series from you, i hope you do one in the future!

[CharlatanCad]

Yes, this was a ton of help.Thank you!

[brtmod]

Maan this is so helpful, thanks for the tip

[Spiffer]

Oh it so simple, I made a battle pod from Robotech without this function instead I used subdivision tool and extrusion which caused a ton of issues

Haven't watched, but sense this video is gonna be helpful. 🎉
Yep, I was right. Watched it thru.

[donloder]

Idk whether or not you have covered this already, but I'm still having trouble with holes on a curved surface. And by holes I mean the ones with corners, to be used with subdivision later. It's one of those times when I just can't brute force it with a higher polycount base mesh.

Wish i knew this when i was making armor straps. The other methods didnt work well and i shamefully had to manually bend and shape the straps onto the armor.

[backyy]

This is really cool!
do plan on making an advanced blender course any time in the future?

[mudcrab]

Is there going to be anymore of the Intro To Animation short videos? Been finding them very helpful.

[MastersRoger]

Flowify -> Blender Addons Do this work!

[urmcchromez]

When we make textures or add them, does it export as one whole texture file ? As though it’s one single file with its textures ?

[orionionion]

how would this affect shading and texturing? might we have to retopologize and stuff?

[sergpodolnii]

I tried the lattice modifier before, looks interesting (still new to Blender). Just curious, is there a way to edit the parented mesh to its lattice mesh without unparenting first?

[ovrava]

my object deforms when i slide it around the surface? Any Idea why?

[nonknght]

Wouldn't a Surface Deform modifier be better, since it uses an actual mesh and not a poorly-implemented quasi-mesh that is a PITA to work with?
