Anyone who's having trouble with the 'solidify' step, and their mushroom is just expanding into a hot mess. Tab into edit mode, press A to select everything, and choose Mesh>Normals>Flip.

Noted watching blender tutorials is incredibly satisfying, like watching those "building a house out of mud" series

Hey man, loving this tutorial so far. Is there any chance you might be able to turn on the function in Blender that shows what keys you're pressing? It would be super helpful for someone like me who is still trying to learn all the shortcuts.

[daslama]

This is such a good tutorial! It doesn't explain to much nor to little. Thanks for taking the time to make this

[shemdesuuu]

awesome tutorial!!! been looking for that cell shaded look for a while now and turns out it was color ramp all along hahaha thank u so much tip tut!!! the backface thingy that makes it look like the mushroom has an outline is such a great idea, will rewatch later again and apply what i learned to my school projects 💜

Dude I have been looking at NPR shaders for like months, and never have I seen someone just toss a bsdf into a shader to rbg.... thats so insanely usefull. Dont get me wrong, building a complex shader has its advantages for characters and major elements, but I can imagine using this for small objects or background items for speed. Thanks for this!

[pixelsnplay]

Thank you for this! This was a perfect follow up to the Donut one- fast enough where I had to focus but clear enough that if I just went back and watched a little more carefully I could catch what I missed. Again thank you!

[ceci]

Please do continue with more of these! Amazing tutorial cant wait to try soon!

[Khy._]

I DID IT! I followed this tut (first ever time following a Blender tutorial) and minus a couple trial and error issues, it came out looking amazing! And not only that, but with this being my first Blender project, I now feel comfortable with a lot of the keyboard shortcuts. Can't recommend this tut enough.

instructions unclear, got put in federal prison for possession of pscilocin

[kingpow]

Please do more tutorials like this! It's so complete! I feel like I really started to learn how to do it! And I love that you picked a natural element like mushrooms! Please do more tutorials with plants, trees, etc! The toon shader and grease pencil are amazing! I it!!

The combination of cel shading and grease pencil is a game changer. Thanks man. Wonderfully explained.

[ianwinslow]

Thank you for such an informative tutorial! This was exactly the thing I was looking for! I enjoyed the way you taught it and the pace. Keep up the wonderful work!

[obijohn]

Thank you so much for this tutorial, as a learner it was very easy to follow and i had so much fun and am very proud of my end result. i have subbed and shared with my friends. best tutorial ever.

[JayRKID]

Also Ive only just found your channel and i would absolutely love more Blender tutorials, maybe animating faces on the model etc.

[Sin_Alder]

I appreciate that this is not only great looking, but deceptively easy to execute. There are so many things with Blender that feel absurdly complex and unintuitive that having something quick and easy that looks nice is always a welcome addition to my notes.
Half the time I feel like I'm spending more time writing notes than actually using Blender.

[wobbletea]

I cant believe I stumbled onto this tutorial. I've always wanted to do a Toon style blender scene and didn't know where to start, thankfully this tutorial has set me on a good path.

[smitchelldg]

I have been wanting to learn how do this style, and you just explain it so GOOD!!!! thanks so much!!

[malakianknight]

Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to seeing some more videos like this. Also, nice Mononoke-hime wallpaper at 14:53 😀

Absolutely killer of a tutorial mate! Many things learned!
