New course purchased! :-D Just 2 or 3 weeks ago, I introduce your Blender 3 beginner tutorial to my 10 yo son. Your instruction was so clear that he could follow most of the steps and only need my help occasionally. He is now following your "get good @ Blender" series and getting more fun with Blender. I purchased your new course for me and also for my son. I will show him the purchased course on his upcoming 11th birthday as present. :-)

@@grabbitt Hi, a minor question: Did you set some age restriction on THIS video? I was giving this video to my son but he cannot view it with his account logged in while he can watch your other videos. This video is available when he logged out or using my account, so I am wondering maybe there're some setting problems?

@@hiankun that's very strange I have no idea why that would be. Perhaps it's something to do with advertising restrictions on UKpostss end. I have to tick a box as to whether it's made for children or not and I always tick no as it's not specifically.

Exactly the kind of tree I want! Not too clay like, not too realistic, I want the one in between! And that kind of tree looks more nostalgic than most low poly game trees nowadays.

Having just made some low-poly trees by hand with arduous vertex dragging this is a great vid. I never would have thought to use the sculpting mode for an organic shape then the decimate modifier to make it usable, great stuff!

Hey Grant. Your new addition to the environment blender course is great. But I would love to see you make textures and the foliage alpha textures from scratch and then use that in the texturing process of the foliage. Your video that demonstrates how to handpaint a wagon. I would love to see this method used in the texturing process of foliage and rocks, for your environment course.

Trees in Blender have been the bane of my life. I create projected backdrops for theatrical productions and forests feature quite often. I've always had to do a trade-off between modelled trees and "billboard" trees in the background. These low(ish) poly trees that look realistic are going to be a great help.

hey grant, i have been learning a lot with your videos both on youtube and on your awesome paid courses. Thank you so much for all the great content, you make it possible to digest the giant meal of learning blender possible for a newbie like me. I was wondering if you could show us how to make the tree's leaves vary in color/shade procedurally so when you duplicate the trees with geo nodes in a scene they add more realism to the scene. I did this once following a low poly tree tutorial a few months ago but cant remember what video i followed and i dont remember how to do it. thanks again!

I've always searched good blender instructions and failed frequently for years...

Thanks for keeping it simple and speaking so clear! I've never made it until the end of a udemy course but yours (always lost interest or just failed anywhen. You described it just so well that no irreversible failures occure). ^~^ keep on the great work and thank you so very much!

for very low polycounts (less than 100 for the whole tree) you can take the same idea but use the whole branch texture as multiple branches with a three-sided stem intersecting halfway through it.

Hi, sir. I really appreciate your help, this is a wonderful video. Nonetheless, I have a problem with which I don't know how to solve. When I export the tree, as .fbx or a .gltf file, the textures are saved in a wrong way. The mapping is absolutely ignored, as well as all my other changes in the nodes, and no matter what I do, this always happens. I have tried to embed the textures, but that does not work at all. By a chance, you know what is the problem and what can I do to achieve my purpose?
@TheRealNefty
@TheRealNefty 7 місяців тому
Attempting to export the completed tree as any version of GLTF 2.0 results in the bark texture not appearing (the tree portion is all black). Any idea what causes this?
