Man I always get pumped when I watch your videos!

[soheilsh]

Great job ! I love your works ! I know your workflow in ( maya zbrush substance), but you still teach me everything! ♥️

[Stp]

Hi, I love your work, I would like to know what plugin/extension or what are you using in the minute 4:21, when u are defining smoothing groups

[phreakii]

Only thing that’s bothering me is the strict thing I learned about using quads and triangles. Tris at the knifes hole. Not so important in games but else or when then?

[alvarancar]

This looks beautiful. Also, which program do you use for the final render? Thank you, keep the great work, you are spiring me so much. I started modeling 2 months ago and hopefully one day I can reach the level that you have. Have a great day ^_^

[gherson]

Hello Bro nice video, I have a question what are the HDRI or lights, configuration that you use to render in the minute 9:38

[philmehrart]

Hi, do you mind going over the curve/cable creation at 2:40? Have tried this on nurbs curves but don't seem to get the same nodes as you? I know there's probably a cable script that can do it but would be interested to know anyway. Thanks

[seruji_shard]

This is amazing, your videos are a blessing to the 3d community!! How do you avoid getting weird edges if the blade is too sharp?

[flyingangel]

hey !! Why we have to sculpt the edges and corners? any specific reason ? does it affect anything ? 5:18

[noobscongafas]

Hi, could someone please tell me why? When I say extrude in inputs, only "extrude" appears and not "nurbstesselate"

[Jason-os]

Cheer~~~depict or treat in a mannered and nonrealistic style.😊

[hasanzig]

2:25 can anyone teach me how to use cv curve tool in perspective view... i can't do it

[airconditioner]

Hello, do you sell this on art station? My gumroad got some trouble

[sashunita]

how did you go from extrude1 to NURBS Tessellation with one click ? can't find this option

[ragerungames]

Can you slow down i want to learn how you do

[anywayanytime]

good modeling, btw can u tell me what title for the bgm music?

[declanmark]

Handle looks out of scale with the blade, the handle is quite small, looks like it would snap off

[fipzee]

How did you keep the hard edges in Zbrush? Did you bevel in Maya before bringing into Zbrush or crease or bevel in Z?

[Oretal]

Did you make the rope by wrapping a curve around the handle? Also what did you use to control the mesh of the rope?

[Anarkyp]

where you get so many brushes in Zbrush ?
