When I first started to get into game development, I scoffed at the notion that low-poly assets could look good. I stand corrected after watching several of your 10-minute modeling sessions.
Been a Blender user for about 6 years now. But I set time aside each day to watch and follow one of your 10min challenge videos. Keeps the blender skills sharp and I always learn something new or a new/easier way to model something. I look forward to it every day. Just wanted to say thank you and keep up the great work!
I think that the "Bonus Material" - after the 10 Minute Challenge, is just as valuable (if not more so) than the standard material. The slower pace, the "error, think, correct" thought process is super-valuable. I have become a lock-down Imphenzia addict.
I think it's called knut (corner of the house) due to methods called knuttimring, used to basically lock the logs to each other in the corners, in ol' log cabins. FYI! :) Great video. Love the randomize transform on the tiles on the roof. Great way to give it some life!
Haha... that chimney looks more like a huge gravestone was hurled into this poor little cottage's roof. Thanks for sharing again. I'm getting better at this, thanks to you.
@19:20, you can hit R 2x, for gimbal rotation. It takes a bit of playing with to understand how to push/pull and roll left/right, but I use it all the time for this sort of thing. It makes aligning a long object to a surface easier, as your view alignment doesn't matter as much.
Hey Imphenzia. Really love your stuff. Still one of the best Unity tutorials I know. Please let out the Unity and some more detailed animations tutorials. All in good time of course? Love from Nigeria.
Thanks for the effort that you put to share these works with us. I have started to watch recently so i am not aware if you have shared before but, could you share your viewport settings with us? your screen has nice shaded look on it instead of dull colors (i mean the even the default cube or your piece, compared to the dull grey default look.)
Imphenzia! Thank you very much for your music! Especially for "First One", a very strong composition! I listen to her for motivation and inspiration for my first game. Good luck !!!
for the loopcuts on the broken geometry you can just make 1 cut in the center and bevel it to get the 2 borders rather than having to make them by hand
Wow that technique of making the roof tiles was just amazing. That just speeds up the workflow so much. Just want to say Thank You! as your videos are great to improve modelling techniques, have helped me so much, things like using UV to color the model with scaling the vertices down ( I wouldn't have thought about that ) in an effective way and so many other techniques including this one. Your videos are very informative. Keep up the great work! :)
@@Imphenzia yeah I know, even I viewed your old videos of your channel when I subscribed your channel. I subscribed your channel from since like 2 or 3 months. That's why you deserve more than 10M. 😁 I hope you got a J curve in your channel success. Sorry if there's any mistake in my English. Actually I'm so bad in English.
That house is pretty cartoonish. It inspired me to learn history of cartoons. Like... Why the curved edges became so common in some genres of cartoons, especially Disney ones.
I love the extra bit at the end where you add all the details! But I think your daughter might get mad for cheating! Lmao Also, at the end when you were fixing the cliff, when you go to delete that vertex, you can do "Dissolve vertex" from the delete menu, and it would have kept all the faces there without that middle vertex.
sorry for the comment spam, but i noticed that the edges of your faces look slightly highlighted like a sort of revers ambient occlusion. How did you achieve that? is it sometihng to do with the shader averaging the near colours on the texture or some other way? I like it
it's a really nice end result. while watching i was thinking "whoa that's a bit extreme" when you were proportional editing, but then it all just came togethrer at the end and all just works to produce a nice result. good job, im going to attempt to replicate this style as ive been making low-poly buildings just now but i wasn't happy with them - their look was just too basic. I think if i took inspiration from your style then that would give them what's missing 👍 as always, loving your content, and im looking forward to whatever you come up with next 😄
Really cool again, question, we created our tiles and lost our selection (and undo buffer) what is the best way you recommend to reselect the tiles, we ended up having to circle select each one.
Have you increased the undo buffer? It has saved me a bunch of time. Also you can make vertex group if you decide to make some other changes after you've already selected vertices.
This is the add-on I mentioned that allows you to inset and extrude with one command. I haven't used it myself, but I thought you might want to play with it. It's at github under /anfeo/Blender_addno_Extrude_Inset
Hi, thnx I use C at times but for this I thought the more angles the more character :) I don't use any rederences during the modeling, I don't have time to look anywhere haha. But for somw I look at references first, like Star Destroyer
@@Imphenzia Well, I'll try then one day, now I'm a bit busy because I'm doing research for my major project for uni (it's a degree (BA) project). I would be in a realistic style, i mean the whole environment. Anyway, thank you for that kind of videos, that inspires me a lot.
I love these videos. One thing: I noticed at the end when you were adding faces, you selected all four edges and pressed F. Not sure if you know, but you can save time by just selecting two opposite edges and pressing F.
Hi great Video. But where can i find your video to setup blender the same like yours? Your video in the description link ist not working anymore. Is it possible to download your color palette? Thx so much. And why when i start to scale an object i didn´t have the line to scale? I only can scale by clicking on the X/Y or Z.
I'm the same as you, i have OCPD which means everything has to be lined up neatly and in order, i have a nightmare trying to model anything organic or "wonky", i can spend hours with one vertex trying to get it perfect.
BTW - another thing for speed, if you're doing F for creating faces, you only need to select the two opposite faces (not the full four ) if you're working with quads . It'll save a you a few clicks! :)
I think it's probably just the look of the "Solid" viewport rendering (or the Workbench renderer). The shadows in Solid view don't follow the actual lighting, it seems.
Can you model an octagon shaped castle with square shaped towers in the middle of each wall, where the lower part fits onto a cherry MX key switch and all be manifold in order to 3d print it? I failed several times after all geometry is done it simply turns out not being manifold and therefore it can not be sliced for 3d printing. It's like I join two basic shapes and the result is always not manifold... :-( Help
Hey maybe Im a bit late with asking but, when I use your color palette the colors wont show up in edit mode but when I got in object mode the colors on the block do show up how they are suposed to be.. Anyone know how to fix?
you can use the geometry pointiness in Cycles, (only, not Eevee.) use a color ramp to generate enough contrast, and it works a treat. Don't know how to do it in Eeevee yet. The fact its in the Display port, means it should be in the render.. but can't find it yet.
@@muklin But that only works when you have lots of geometry - if you do that on a default cube, you won't see anything (try outputting the pointiness straight into a viewer node, or even amplifying the amount the pointiness value differs from 0.5 - you won't see anything). Certainly not as crisp as the Cavity setting gives you. And a lot of the style of these models is because of that effect. Maybe if it's only for exporting into a game engine it's OK, especially if there's a way to replicate the effect in the engine.
Hi! I had the same question and I find the answer in the 20 tips video (link if it helps: th-cam.com/video/_HLMmaQM8Pg/w-d-xo.html). Thx for your great and impressive work!

Im a complete noob beginner . Just found your channel. It will help me I know. Great tutorial.
I watched this video with my husband, but you mentioned female audience again and I decided to watch the second time from my own account.
Thanks for re-watching it on your account =)
@@Imphenzia My gf also watches sometimes with me, so you might have more female views then you think, even maybe full 1% more :D.

Hello. Is there alternate shortcut to 0:57 Right mouse, or option? Thats dont work for me.
I found your channel a few days ago and I can't stop watching. How many years of blendering experience you have?
for the loopcuts on the broken geometry you can just make 1 cut in the center and bevel it to get the 2 borders rather than having to make them by hand
Didn't think of it like that.. Smart!
wow! I am amazed! Thanks

Very nice! I finished this lesson for 1 hour.
Amazing stuff. Many thanks for all your great tuts.
Love your tutorials
This is very cool. Learning lots from your channel, thank you.
Discovered that shift + g is handy for selecting tiles under the roof should you need to. select similar on plane or by normal
You could use lattice modifier to make it non destructive
Blir så satans inspirerad! Tack!
When you said “im almost done” i was like nooooooo
Best blender content. Keep up the great work!
Hey, those are some big words, thanks!! =)
I think you're going for 100k so quickly than 10k. 😁 BTW you deserve more than that.

Shortcut for looptools menu is w then in that menu looptools and their is all the features of looptools.
How does he colorized polys at 1:40 ?
You hand out pretty awesome tricks - I just learned mark to vertices and J to connect them - nice :D
Also I learned randomize - also awesome! :D

@@trygvij1604 Vertex Group - great idea. I have always wondered why blender doesn't allow you to save a selection like in photoshop
Ahhh!! U r back..❤
Cool stuff!
Just subscribed, great content. What are you using to paint the faces? (sorry I'm a beginner) and when exporting does the colour also export?
hello, nice speed modeling. And what i want to say, when you press i just press ctrl too, and you will see magic 🙃
Awesome as usual

Do you use references like on a second screen?

Genial esperando todos los jueves para aprender cosas nuevas, gracias.
Estoy feliz de escuchar eso gracias! Bienvenido de nuevo el próximo jueves =)
Lovely cottage :D I really like it, and I think i have to start doing some low poly assets now :D
You should try it - it's fun because you can get results fast :)
@@Imphenzia Well, I'll try then one day, now I'm a bit busy because I'm doing research for my major project for uni (it's a degree (BA) project). I would be in a realistic style, i mean the whole environment.

where I can take a closer look at this way of texturing? Thanks

How do you get the RGB colour pallete
What’s this colour palette you’re using on the left? Is this an add on?
Hello! i love your tutorials and i want ask you. Can i use your models in tutorial in my game?

How do I set up a color palette like that?
Hi great Video. But where can i find your video to setup blender the same like yours? Your video in the description link ist not working anymore. Is it possible to download your color palette? Thx so much.
And why when i start to scale an object i didn´t have the line to scale? I only can scale by clicking on the X/Y or Z.
Loved the bonus material vibe of course, in addition to the 10-minute build. You're pretty cute as a woman.
Can you run a simple vid on how to set up the colour swab and use it please.
Why can't we see the cavity shader setup now... shows unavailable... Thanks!
I'm the same as you, i have OCPD which means everything has to be lined up neatly and in order, i have a nightmare trying to model anything organic or "wonky", i can spend hours with one vertex trying to get it perfect.
Me too. It's helpful when programming, but not when making art.
Really good :D
Whoooot ? A cottage ?
It was too easy for you !

You should make a game with ALL your 10 minutes modeling chalenge models. Plz
I can't believe you don't have more subscribers..
I don't know what happen to your scene, but seems more dark. Have you change any settings on blender?
I think you didn't delete the lights right? There is shadows being casted...
