- NOMAD FOR BEGINNERS - sculpting a character on the iPad
We decided it was time to get right back to basics and start a new Nomad sculpt TH-cam series for complete beginners.
This Nomad sculpt tutorial for beginners will get you up and running with some of the basic tools. The tutorial is delivered in a project style so that you are not just learning tools and buttons. We will slowly work through how to create a little character in the Nomad Sculpting app and along the way you will learn all about blocking out, voxel remeshing, some of the most popular tools and brushes and even a tiny bit of anatomy.
This is ideal for anyone who has just picked up Nomad Sculpt on the iPad and want to get going with making their very first sculpt and its going to be a baby Grogu and Darth Maul Mash up so it’s a fun one all right!

I am just going live on Instagram with this little model 😀
For all newbies to Nomad, or 3d in general, you’re in the right place. This is where your 3d dreams begin to take shape. Great courses. 👍🍷🎩🎩🎩
Thanks John. Comments like that are really motivational for me.
Very exciting, can’t wait to start making these!
I've wanted to make a Nomad beginners character course for ages.
We do sell one but I wanted to make sure anyone who isn't in a position to purchase that can still get into making cool characters in Nomad Sculpt. I really take me time in this first one and that the sort of pace I'm going to maintain in these beginner videos.
nice :)
Just getting into Nomad and I'm interested in a course (now that cozyblanket AND UV unwrapping is available) where you go from Nomad to finished product for either a 3d print or game development (using mixamo with the retopo model). I know you have videos kind of covering these aspects individually but a full project based course would be amazing.
I’m a complete novice and happened across your videos. Thank you so much. You’ve taught me so much in such a short space of time
That’s awesome news. That’s exactly the comment that makes me keep doing it
Everytime I look at tutorials I find that I need to watch multiple beginners guides to find the answer that I need but you seem to cover it all really well.
I really appreciate your guides here on Nomad, I have also been through your guides on Gravity Sketch and both gave me the basics I needed to get started.
Keep it up man, love your work
Best beginner tutorial I’ve seen so far. You are very patient and descriptive with your steps so thank you for taking the time to make this!!!
Man oh man…. U are doing great for the nomad community and the whole 3d overall It means the world to us.., hopefully one day you’ll make your own character and make ur own shirt films and animation.. I would be so happy 💚💚💚
Getting back into 3D after a 7 year hiatus. Really appreciate your channel.
Love your teaching style, its perfect matey, absolute class
I greatly appreciate your tutorials. This was full of excellent information and at a good pace. Thank you
The eye trick blew my mind! Thank you, your videos are very helpful.
lol. I am glad you are finding them helpful!
This was unbelievable groundbreaking for me! You made me want to start modelling! Thank you SO MUCH for your time and shared knowledge.
You are so welcome! I really appreciate your comment.
Great course Glen. Really kind of you to teach the new users. Thumbs up. 😁👍🤜
Thanks 👍 apprieciated my friend.
A brilliant educator. Thank you sir.
It's a pleasure, thank you for the feedback.
Thank you so much for this video! Just got a new iPad and have a little experience in a few things when it comes to print shops. So excited to step my game up and enter into the 3d world. Great tutorial!
Glad it was helpful and best of luck!
Wow thanks! Love these.... 3D sculpting seems SO daunting but I love how approachable you have made it! Subscribed!
I am glad you like it and thank you so much for subscribing, I really appreciate it!
Good stuff, a pleasure seeing different tutorials.. thx
Thank you, I appreciate your comment
I understood every step, that went so smooth, wow, thank you, you are a great teacher.
Thank you, I appreciate your comment
I've been using Nomad for a year, self-taught, and was looking for a video to show a friend how to get into it. I learned a thing or two from this still, still. Great video.
I am glad it has been helpful for you.
Great video! Just so everyone knows, you don't only need an iPad and apple pencil. Nomad Sculpt is also available for Android and If you have one of the Samsung Tab S7 or S8 series it runs just as smooth!! 😉
Thanks for making these. I was getting frustrated with z brushes weird interface and was looking for an alternative that had good sculpting tools. I haven't utilized my iPad pro as much as i should and this course has been great really well paced simple and direct not skipping steps like many tend to do. It fosters a solid understanding of the tools and how they are used as well as application of concepts and construction.
Thanks Shawn, that is great to hear. I appeciate the feedback.
It’s so helpful for a newbie like me, thank you so so much!
It's a pleasure, I am glad it helped.
Truly amazing work thank you🙏🏽
It's a pleasure and thank you for the comment.
Starting to run out of excuses for not picking up Nomad yet :) , good of you to do these Glen
Now might be the time!!
Thank you so much for this video ! It really helps !
Thank you Renan, I am glad you found it useful
Wonderful. Just wonderful
Thank You!
This is exactly what i needed to start with nomad
Brilliant, I am glad it has helped you.
You make it look so easy...ugh lol Awesome material tho! Thanks Glen!
That is good to hear, Spencer.
thank you for this, genuinely useful start up tutorials are so hard to find! though the fact this is now using a dated version of the ui throw me for a loop afew times.
Yeah that's a really pain sorry. The software had a major overhaul as I was halfway through the recording of this course. The last 4 parts are all done were delayed for a few months while the developer was still adding and changing things around. The last 4 videos all have the new interface (which is awesome) and I do apologise in the latest videos as I know it's a pain in the ass
Ok !! Now a day latter as a beginner and I learnt and understood the basics and foundations of Nomad Sculpt 1.84, now give me the Clay to Play and off to print on my new Bambu A1 mini with my first character
Bro, I just subscribed. I am learning a lot from you. Thanks!
That is great to hear and thank you for the subscribe!
Thank you, so much! Your having started at ground zero is really helpful. I've been looking for similar tutorials for ZBrush, but haven't had much luck, yet.
Although, now that I've recently purchased an M2 iPad w/ 16GB of ram, I'm just going to buy Nomad Sculpt, and put ZBrush on the back burner for a while.
I'm looking forward to watch more of your tutorials.
Thanks Again,

No problem Jim. Thankd for your comment. We are being asked a lot about ZBrush so there will be more content around that very very soon.
Great tip with the mouth, I could never get those right.
Mouths are tricky until you learn a few of those tricks then it’s a breeze from then on. If you learn the anatomy in terms of the fatty bits and the plane changes it gets much easier very quickly. And new artists always make a mouth flat instead of wrapping it around a face.
The short cuts and the eyelids just the whole video I can't wait to watch more of them
This is an amazing tutorial! The only question I have about nomad is how to make hollow objects? I’ve been wanting to make a few but I just can figure it out
you are grate maestro 👨🏫 👍 thanks 🙏
Most welcome
Loved it
Thanks!
that. was. great !
Thank you!
thank you!
It's a pleasure
Fantastic video thank you
It's a pleasure!
We're waiting next of this concept. :)

Nice!
Thanks!
So cool. Love the concept and the price :-)
I wanted to make it cheaper but it meant giving people money to watch it lol.
Nice course very much appreciated. My yoda sculp looks like he chain smokes for 45 years
It's a pleasure!
Holy shit I just finished this video and I can’t believe I just learned how to sculpt beautiful lips! Say what?? You are such an amazing teacher! Gave this character some young Angelina Jolie lips. XD. I am honestly speechless how good this was. Of course now I have to order all your courses.
Thank you and I am really glad you liked it!
If you were to get a new Ipad which memory option would you recommend and which pencil? I’m coming from the parametric modeling world and this looks like a fun challenge. Also a great excuse to get something new.
thing i like about nomad sculpt is you can use it with a key board like a traditional 3d program.
This is a really great tutorial. Thank you for this!
The only thing is (and it might just be me) I would have an easier time understanding what you're selecting if you just had the view with your hand and stylus.
Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it.
just for those budget conscious, i use nomad sculpt on my samsung s6 lite which cost me $250 (including the pen and the cover). Nomad sculpt has been a treat for on the go 3d sculpting (max ram is 2.6 gb - but thats plenty for a beginner). Disclaimer, i primarily use irl clay and also have a pc that I could use for blender. But all i use these days is my samsung s6 lite, me clay over there collecting dust. sigh. great tutorial btw!
Great tutorial thank you. Just wondering why you keep holding down the smooth button when smoothing with the pen? Does tapping on the smooth icon not select it so that you can use the pen?
Where can I find the reference image?
Thank you for such a great tutorial! I just got and Ipad pro 2nd gen 2020.
Is it possible to have cursor for the brush move when you hover over with the pencil so you know precisely where you going to make a brush stroke? On android cursor moves across screen when you hover with the pen. This is driving me crazy on the Ipad.
Hi, what are your thoughts on Armor Paint for the ipad? Have you used it? is it worth getting? Thanks!
Ur the best
Thanks, that is very kind
Thanks for the tutorials!! I was recommended to your page :D One question I have is how is your model so smooth and mines not? I have tried to increase the resolution (currently at 500) and i can still see 'lines'. I'm using a 2020 iPad Pro.

Gizmo and yoga might be from the same planet, they do look alike
If you have problems with moving mirrored eyes, switch “Target” to Vertex, on the left menu. And enable mirroring
Great video series! You said the reference images would be linked in the description, but I can't find them. Where can we get the references?
Hey great video! I'm just having a a problem where right off the bat I can't find topography on the top tab. Iv looked everywhere but no luck!. Any luck?
Really love your tutorials! Just exponentionally improved by watching you work! Do you think, perfecting Nomad can be taken to a professional level? I think, in general learning Blender or C4D for example is a must, to truly level up, but I just wanna hear your opinion on this! Keep up the great work!
Not even close. It is essential that you add full polygonal modeling, retop and loads more skills/tools and features to cope in a professional environment. Nomad is one of the best ways to start digital sculpting but moving on is essential. We use ZBrush and Cinema4D mostly but the C4D part can be blender, Modo, Maya, Max etc. whatever works best for what you want to do. We use Maxon Cinema4D as our main tool because our main client (SKY) uses that for almost all jobs. I love Blender but it isn’t even close to being able to handle what ZBrush can when sculpting. For everything other than sculpting Blender is now exceptional but still under represented in industry. Nomad is a gateway drug into the world of 3D sculpting and it’s used by professionals to allow them to still sculpt when away from the desk.
Thanks for the kind words. Means a lot and make me want to keep making content.
@@SouthernGFX Thank you for your honest answer! Nomad feels the most intuitive for me and I wanted to get a grasp on 3D-Modelling with it, because I still feel intimidated by more complex softwares.
But what you are saying makes so much sense. Thank you so much.
ok that was my question you have to smooth after voxel remesh ;)
Is there a way to smooth the mesh but relax it? I know you showed smooth but if you look carefully it's not clean I find that you can't have a completely smooth curved surface and there's always this result of being able to very slightly see the strokes even after smoothing.
hi, I'm a little bit confused at 18:20 with the new option of boolean action, do you still want to remesh with voxel to fuse shapes? or now it's easier to use boolean? thank you
I like to take an iPad sculpt into blender for rigging & animating
How can you merge the eyes and whole head without losing the roundness of the eyes? Sorry totally beginner here because when I started to voxel merge, the eyes are no longer round and defined.
i need a control crash course for the hidden or less obvious commands.
Hi, I want to buy your course on your Web site but I would like to know if there is french subtile ?
❤
Ty very much! Anyone else not finding this image to add as reference?
I cant find it did you
@@waltertaylor3838 nope I didn’t
will it work on ipad pro m1 with 8gb ram?
Trying to export .OBJ and .STL to use with Tinkercad and Flashprint. Neither program recognizes the exported files. They're not available for selection. Any idea why that might be?
Sir,in the new Version how to drag the layers from up and down
hi there, im new to nomad and trying oy follow this tutorial, but it seems my brushes and starting modal doesnt appear to be as smooth looking as yours and i can see the polygons ...i tried to subdivide but can only do it ounce....says Subdivide exceeded, see max vertices count...i checked but not sure what to do with it...can you help? Im running on iPad pro, 1T M2 chip
Where can I find the reference model/ image. Don’t see a link in the description
Which is better? Nomad or blender?
My eye symmetry is putting the second eye in back of the head for some reason. Does anyone know why?
Hay una dónde puedo hacer vehículo y otros objetos; ¿Me pueden decir que pasó?...
any chance of chatting direct with you? I just got the app and its amazing but like most other apps all the buttons are moved around in comparison to the tutorials and there are many little questions so If I can get answers please message me thanks!
Quick question will it have XP Pen tablet capabilities?
On an iPad? Not sure what you mean sorry
@SouthernGFX xp pen digital art tablet it links up to pc..
Bro you said you would link the photo but I don’t see it. I guess I have to click the sign up one?
Will it not work with an adonit plus stylus? Only an Apple Pencil?
Yeah it's fine. I have tested about 5 other stylus’s. The Apple pencil is the best experience though.
@@SouthernGFX I literally lost mine so I got the adonit note with pressure sensitivity for 60 until is stumble across the apple penicl some place is my mess of life lol
@@EvOkE703 I keep every stylus type I can buy for reviews and comparisons. I have an adonit somewhere but I’d forgotten that it was pressure sensitive. I must find mine now!
The one I have is the note+ to be specific
@11:34 Nomad Sculpt 1.84 has a different menu ... just got lost mate!
Please change the color of the widget to a lighter color such as yellow, orange or green so that we can better understand the settings during the tutorial. Thank you.♥️🙏🏼
why do my interface settings look different from yours? i'm using the 2023 version
did they remove all of the flip options?
Where is the image file to follow along
Hmmm…I thought Z was vertical, as in Z offset.

How to rig nomad character
In prisma 3d ,
First!!
Woohoooooo....Good man.
I like your sculptures and I'm starting making my own character
@@justmark333 awesome.I’m can’t wait to see it. Tag @southerngfx if you post it online
Oops you clarify Zed in the next sentence.
Lots if programs do it differntly. The reason 3D Print software developers chose Z as the vertical was because of the travel direction. It usually means that a model comes into the slicer sofware at the wrong orientation. Even Maya and Max (Both autodesk) have a different Y which is mental. Nomad is like ZBrush and Maya which for me is the norm, Y up, X left and right and Z in and out as in 'Z Depth' and the even the etomolgy of the name ZBrush I suppose :)
N o hay para Android?
There is and it works just as well.
I really need help! I did the ears and they look weird! Like they don’t look like clay, they’re polygonal, and idk how to fix it! It just ended up looking like that, it’s not rendering like clay. I hope some one sees this 😭😭
I might have the same problem but idk how to fix it. In the vid the edges of the cylinder looks smooth and rounded. Mine has a very sharp edge. And it looks kinda pixelated when I use the move tool
About half the time my screen doesn't match yours. I imagine it's because it's been updated, but the part where you merge the parts and adjust the resolution are not even there...
Also smooth tool does nothing.
reference image
i have to stop already, move eyes out doesnt do anything
Alright, that s it, i quit, for the 3rd time...english isnt my 1rst language and some of my icons are diferent so it doesnt help....aaarghl!
nothing you said is working
This is so helpful! I was trying to block out a character and couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t sculpt with multiple shapes 🫠
