@@blenderguru why dontyou use jlender for composition
So is his beard.
i was hoping he would say "hi"vsauce! michale here
this guy is the boss... He's doing tutorials for free, giving out free content, doing all the research... for free... and even sending out newsletters to keep you up to date with the latest CG stuff. for free.
I totally agree with you, thank you so much Blender Guru!
Because Andrew is smart. He funnels people from his free videos to his paid products. In the past it was blender guru products like rock essentials, architecture academy etc and now it's Poliigon. Which isn't a bad thing. He earns money which he can use to fund himself and also find these free videos and free assets for us. It's a win win
@Phineas Gage The point is that he could be charging hundreds of dollars to each individual, instead it costs us nothing.

It's crazy how much 3D modelling has changed over the years. I remember a time when 3D Studio Max and Maya were the top dogs
I was a middle schooler spending a whole weekend figuring out how to get boujou for free.
Maya is still heavily used in game development
so what exactly has changed...they still are.
@@doctirdaddy4876 maybe for movie production. Not so much for gaming anymore outside of Maya for models
They (I mean 3DSM and Maya) are still in big studios, but in small studios? Blender is the goto.

As someone who's never even opened Blender, this was an incredibly easy video to follow (even though its obvious the amount of skill required to do so is vast). Great explanation.
I wish I could say the same but I’m too stupid to even understand this
I wish I could say the same but I'm too stupid too even understand this
TL;DR: try to learn blender, it's actually not that hard.
fun thing is: it's actually not that hard! I'd say the "less conventional" steps that a beginner blender user ("blenderer"?) would not think of were all related to the image editing, so, removing seams the way he did, and those tricks he did with the mist and subdivision.
Of course there's a huge difference between seeing a video and going "I'd do that", and actually having to come up with the solutions yourself, but I'm just saying a lot of what's going on is something you learn early on.
Once you start following some tutorials, you start seeing the patterns, common tools and such. Then, it's all about starting your own projects, cause there's only so much tutorials can teach you!
No. Nnnnnnnnn hmm he 4th
Welp. I got blender, luckily. It's fun really . but I can't even move yest-

I love that geometry nodes and other features have made this almost obsolete in a way, just shows the astonishing progress of blender.
it really didn't though... I mean back when this tut was made, you could also scatter instances of objects millions of times, but please try and do that in your current version. See how your computer screams when you instance a million of these donuts across a landscape. Not only will it tax your system resources, it is also 100% wasted computing power for the 95% of donuts you don't see up close. This was always possible without the hacks, but people use the hacks in order to make efficient scenes, and would still opt for the hack even now because there is no use in wasting processing power for no gain.
V z
nah geometry nodes have nothing on this lmao....the amount of computational power this method is saving is actually insane...its miles apart from Geo nodes!
Back when I accidentally came across his donut tutorial, I had no idea that years later I would willingly watch him make a million, let alone follow him step by step, not even going to mention understanding what is going on.
As one taking the first step after downloading Blender, I was so happy to see the guru was a fellow Aussie. You may be brilliant at blender, but what sets you apart is your brilliant delivery. 2 million subs for a teaching channel is a great feat. Bewdy mate. PS I am on the 10th attempt at the donut after getting the sprinkles done, and I only to have them disappear. I am back to the sprinkle section again... Fingers crossed.

Your trick to remove the seams with cross shaped selected models is so amazing.
@@Geth270 you got a better way?
@Geth270 No visible intersecting donuts at the seams? To avoid that (in case of close up shots) it might be possible to copy plane and particle system first, and then animate...
@@ronnetgrazer362 A better way would be to not put donuts on the borders and use alpha.
a better way would be to put the donuts in a smarter way to begin with.
Everything you're doing afterwards is a kludge.
Years later, Andrew popping up from within the dephs of donuts still gets me XD
A person somewhere is attempting this tutorial and creates a sufficient amount of heat from their computer fans to perfectly fry a whole donut.
Edit: I meant bake not "cook"
Edit: I meant fry not "bake"
Furious Flame123 the fans don’t generate heat, the components do.
The faster they would spin, the cooler air and more air would be moved? I don’t see your point YayDude
@@joryjuky3561 The fan air that is being produced doesn't stay cold for that long as they blow the air onto the really hot heat sink. That cold air then becomes hotter and therefore, hot air emits from the computer depending on how hot the heat sink is.
Uhh I don’t know how every reply missed the point of fans. External fans on a computer are designed to keep air flowing, so they dispel hot air. The components release the heat (which you can’t create, as it’s a form of energy) and the external fans get the hot air out the system.
Use water cooling but instead of water use the donut frying liquid

You emerging from an endless sea of Donuts might be the best thing I've ever seen
This is amazing. Really great work on the this. One thing I noticed that would also help reduce the tiling effect with the donuts is the cross pattern. When you rendered the cross of donuts it didn't also render the dark shadows of the donuts that would have been below them. So when you pasted the cross of donuts on top, you ended up with a lower contrast cross section that made the tiling more noticeable.
The plug-in your team made is amazing though, and really creates some good looking results.
