As someone who never uses prefabs and downloadable models, it’s funny to hear one tip be learn how to model. It’s by far the most useful tool for 3D. Don’t get into environment art without knowing modeling!
Modeling is a super skill that u need to learn but dont say that people that cant model cant try doin environment scenes. 3D is more than modeling, even if u dont know how to model u need to know how to setup lights, tweak textures,etc.
@audio technika yes, basic modelling skills are important and beneficial to have. still, it's not always necessary to master every detail, especially when you're just beginning. for instance, if one aims to create a video featuring a car, it isn't mandatory for them to know how to model the car from scratch. instead, focusing on developing skills in composition, lighting, and animation might be a more efficient use of their time, as these skills can significantly impact the overall quality of their project. in a professional setting, it's about leveraging expertise and resources. for instance, a professional motion designer might be wasting valuable time and effort by trying to model a car, when they could potentially purchase a high-quality model made by a dedicated 3D modeller everyone has their own approach when it comes to learning and creating 3D art. there are various roles within the field and not everyone needs to be a master at everything. as long as they're producing quality work that they're proud of, and continually striving to improve and expand their skill set, that's what truly matters
We tend to use prefab models in the industry solely as a cost & time measure. If you need a ladder in real life, you go buy a ladder. You don't build your own ladder. But knowing how to build one, how the ladder works, why it works, what material you need it made from etc. So when it comes to a scene or environment that needs a cg ladder, we approach in the same way. Why spend 5-8 hours at $200/hour (agency rate, not an employee's hourly) to build a photoreal ladder that matches what we need, when we can spend $20-80 for a piece that an artist has created. We might adjust the mesh, we often retexture and build the shaders from scratch, but that artist put so much of their creative energy into creating that ladder that it would be absolutely foolish to create a ladder when theirs is available. Knowing how to model and texture is crucial, but knowing how to budget your time is equally as important.
I agree that true artist will know how to use all their tools. Ive usually just downloaded pre made models and used them for architecture. Honestly saved me a lot of time. But in the end i sometimes wish to make my own
Spent the entire video nodding in agreement with everything said here, been doing this for 4 years and i amazed how similar the conclusion we came to are. Love all your work.
I started learning blender when I was in exactly the same situation in life. I also mostly did environments. And look at me now! I've started freelancing and am earning from 3d. I couldn't have imagined these things happening 2 years ago.
everytime i sit blender down for a few days I stumble across one of your videos and get instantly motivated to hop back in! Very inspiring work, thanks for staying consistent with the great content! always looking forward to your videos and they've helped me level up my work tremendously!
Hey Max, you inspire me a lot. I' genuinely shocked about how you started your 3d journey because i am currently in that exact same spot and had to go through the same thing. Thank you for all you do. -HappyNoodles
As someone that’s working on music production, everything you shared in your journey applies to mine as well. Success principles are always the same. Thanks for your insight and love the work you do!
i have been doing blender on and off for two years now, and lately i have found videos like this quite useful. of course there is always things to learn but a lot of stuff you have to find out yourself, and there isn't always a set way of doing things
Your work is very inspiring. Thank you for your good tips. I started as hobbyist, with time I became an environment artist/terrain modeler and I had the opportunity to work in projects for great studios. I can confirm what you said, time, passion and efforts can really make you become a good artist and earn some money. Now, even if I made my life choice, it was (and in some cases still is) a wonderful adventure.
Just out of curiosity, did you ever attend any college or courses to get that job or learn your skills? Or did you just do it on your own and use the work that you had already done to show your skills?
Hey Max, been watching your videos for a long time now. You're a huge inspiration, and I love that you made that course available to us! Will definitely be checking it out
I wish I could like this twice Max, I've been waiting for you to put out a course for a long time. You've been the artist making things that tick off all of my own personal boxes of both things I like to see as well as things I'd like to create (scale, light, life, brutalist architecture, futurism, ancient ruins, etc). I've been struggling with focus, inspiration, and motivation for months now, I think this might just be the thing that drags me out of that hole.
Thank You so much for this. I started Blender last year and your videos have given me a big boost in creativity and speed. Was wondering if you would ever make a course. This is awesome. Thanks again.
Love your work man! Subbed now. Great point about lighting, keeping it simple. I was always intimidated by how to light a scene, but one day this guy I was working with in film said "Start with what you can't control and work up from there", and that made approaching lighting way easier for me, it makes it methodical, not just a creative choice. One approach based on that approach is to add in a HDRI and get it to look as good as possible, then use a light or two extra in the scene to highlight what's important or way too dark. I hope that helps someone who is struggling with lighting xD
My work quality improved over 500% since i started watching your videos.... ❤❤ And when you shared your past experiences u really felt connected.... Love your videos ❤❤🙌🙌
Also this is beyond helpful and generous. I wish I had this, and I’ll definitely give back in a similar fashion because if I had these I’d have been more directed. A lot of time was spent on finding my bearings😂❤❤❤❤ Another tip with lights is to have a small group of lights that have been set with all the attention, while another group can be experimental and is dispensable can later be considered unnecessary and discarded so you don’t get carried away and make a mess.
Stay motivated, invest time, get help for the things you can't do yourself, ... You did not just gave a blender tutorial, you gave a life tutorial. Thanks
Amazing video, and thanks for taking the time to talk about your personal backstory in the beginning. It was worth every second and very inspirational!
These tips help me so much with some of my work. Still have so much room for improvement and you have inspired me to keep practicing and practicing. Thank you!
As a 3d artist and an artist in general, I know that the only way to improve is to practice and as you mentioned in the video, seek help and guidance from already good artists such as you, so for me buying this course is a step in the right direction, it will help me learn new things, improve my perspective, and elevate my art. I will definitely buy it, your art is the most inspiring and eye-catching to me and I want to replicate it, adapt it, and improve it in my own way. Btw will you keep updating this course and continue adding to it? and one small note: I noticed that in most of your renders, you use people to give an essence of grandeur and scale, will you share where to get 3d people models from? either in the course or in general.
My jaw litteraly dropped when you mentioned your course. You're a huge inspiration for me and have massively improved my 3D art. As soon as my exams are over I'm buying the course! Tbh you could charge double for it and i still think it would be the most valuable 3D course out there. Thanks for your amazing content.
I love all these and I’ve been waiting for you to start a course! I will definitely be buying it! I think you should make a skill share as well and do classes! You are very talented I’ve been looking into learning 3D for a while now. I’ve been on and off but couldn’t find the course that fits my style of art but yours dose thank you!
This is literally the moment I’ve been waiting for. Your work is exceptional and I’ve learned so much so quickly from all of your videos. I’ve never really been one to pay for courses and stuff because I’m stubborn and just want to learn it trial by fire style but I’m definitely gonna invest in yours.
great story. its amazing what "lazy" or "aimless" people can be capable of once they find their true passion. happened to me to. i was a good for nothing until I discovered filmmaking. it changed everything
This is really great, thanks. It's getting to the point where O see one of your images and think hey, that was probably Max Hay. There are very few people I can do that with. I am totally distracted with details and modeling and tools and game but I'm learning I really enjoy environment design.
From what I know You can only use quixel megascans in UE. "Please note this unlimited Megascans access is licensed for use with Unreal Engine and Twinmotion only and treats Megascans assets as UE-Only Content under the Content License Agreement that you have accepted under the Epic Games account."
You have no idea how much this video and your journey fit with my 'life'. Literally the 2nd video I've watched with learning about Blender. I love photography, videography. My pc file system is completely organised into folders. I used to love having my own asset library with Cinema4D, but life got in the way. No money, mental health crap, dropped out of college, twice! Etc etc. I sit at my pc every day inbetween therapy sessions, playing fcukin angry birds or Anno 1800. That's literally all I do. So this video hasn't just made sense, it's also hit home. Yea, thank you :)
You are the guy who got me into making environment renders. My laptop can not handle much geometry at this point but still I am trying to optimize my scenes as much as I can and your tutorials helps a lot. :)
1:03 thx for calling that out im in a similar situation. ill turn 20 in a month and a year ago i was struggeling to find something i wanted to dedicate my life to. always searching for new ways to express myself i stumbled upon blender and also found a great friend on discord. we almost spent all year online and met irl a few times. he really got me into blender to the point that i say i finally know what i want to do :) was a really hard and important question to answer to me
This is amazing, and you do some amazing work🔥 I would love to do your course but bit high for me atm 😅 but will definitely save it for when I have the money💪 love from South Africa 🇿🇦 and keep up the great work and advice you share
I'd love to get good at Blender but it's such a massive software. So point 1 - getting good with lights and cameras makes me happy, as I am a filmmaker. That's what I do day-in and day-out so I guess I kind of know my way around cameras and lighting 😂
Okay, so I just found out, that you are the creator of my reference photos. You are a huge inspiration for me. Even your story is similar to mine exept that I don't have the experience you have. I'll be definetely checking out your course next month, as soon as I have money :)
resonated with the intro getting laid off started it from me I hope to make arts like this in future as I will be starting to learn blender or c4d and hope my 8years of photography experience helps...
If you have that much time in photography, your experience going into this would be very improved, nearly, unmatched! You know about the perfect angles. This is so key, and you have that skill down. Now you only need to learn more about the modelling process. You can do it. You can do it my friend!
The beginning of the video is what got me hooked, because that is what I want. To be able to choose my entertainment, to choose and create the exact vibe I want. Thank you. I also have a question, how much money can you make from this as a career?
I feel like you right now bro l but I'm stock on a 9 to 5 job but I'm trying learn blender and unreal engine because I don't wana work for a moving company the rest of my life this video was very helpful.
I relate strongly to the struggle of finding something to do for a career. Since highschool for me began I was pressured to choose a path but nothing truly caught my eye that I could see myself doing for the rest of my life. I'm 20 now, never did college or anything and am working in a place that could be a full time career but I hate it. That being said Blender is something I am new to but nothing would make me happier than being able to make my imagination a reality for an income. I hope some day I can leave my job and pursue something like this.
hi max hai i give u thumbs up because u show us the higest blender can do its inspired me, because most of video on you tube they compare blender to maya and else , but your work is the goal i want in my imagination . welll its so usefull when you say camera and light is a bottle neck. i experience it by default blender so dim feel so bad. but u can arrange it great way, so now i have a clue=) thx u so much
Hi Max. Im just about getting started into doing proper scenes after modeling quite a few things. But i still am unable to render dark scene such as your tutorial for bonfire in dark forest type without getting many noises. I did increase the sampling but that took about an hour per frame (8gb vram my rig. Is there any other way to reducing the noises without increasing the render time too much? On a low sample 128, (noise threshold 0.5000) render time was 1min30 seconds, but after changing both to default sample and threshold to 0.0100 render took 1hr for a frame. Please do share some advice on how to get it at least a bit faster and less noisier.
0:51 I'm in the same situation (26M), where I don't have a job, can't choose a career, no "friends", aquintances, yes. Thus no girlfriend , 😭 People, family at gatherings ask questions ❓😞 I mumble. I do have a Computer science degree but that is not what I like as a career. _Although in India if you don't work at a MNC IT company you're gonna die poor_ Over here there's no place for Blender. It's all Autodesk , and Adobe. How I found about Max is through ILLENIUM. I listen to Odesza ILLENIUM Nurko etc etc. I think that's the best thing happend to Max , he gets to make the artwork for his favourite artist. How cool is that!🎉
So many people loosely saying they are artists. I won't put myself near being an artist yet. I am a 3d hobbyist and a photographer. Some might think I am doing art in fancy sense but I am just exploring and learning new things. Nowdays people think they are what they decide to be in snap of the fingers and it is so unauthentic and plasticky. First put 1000 hours into it and then see if you are something near to what you wanted to be.

You are the guy who got me into making environment renders.
My laptop can not handle much geometry at this point but still I am trying to optimize my scenes as much as I can and your tutorials helps a lot. :)
Omg finally someone understands the struggle lol. Every time I watch a tutorial I have to taken into consideration what my MacBook will handle 😭😭😭
@@ciarawaggoner3748 Exactly. Recently I have been experimenting with vegetation & trees in my scenes and my Laptop can not take it anymore. 😂
@@xDaShaanx there are ways to optimize vegetation and fauna. Look into some tricks. Render the scene only or try different techniques
I downloaded blender because I wanted to bring my fantasy stories to life.currently 30 hours in and wow so much to it. great video
I’m good at everything around character modeling. It’s bending my mind
That efficiency tip is very important regarding not focusing on little details too much they take away the most time and provide soo little.
congratulations on going past 60k
good luck on the road for 100k
and really nice video
Thank you 🙏
This is exactly the video I needed thank you
Needed this video bud, thank you for the motivation.
Thanks for this video, just what i needed to hear!
Thanks for sharing, I'll get the course when I start my next job.

Congratulations on being so much successful in your life, and thanks for your great work
Your work is really so great.
I knew I recognized that style, its sick that you worked with Illenium
This is amazing, and you do some amazing work🔥 I would love to do your course but bit high for me atm 😅 but will definitely save it for when I have the money💪 love from South Africa 🇿🇦 and keep up the great work and advice you share

U a talented dude. not for normal people doing stuff like u. I'd say, it's satisfying dude
Great video man
The beginning of the video is what got me hooked, because that is what I want. To be able to choose my entertainment, to choose and create the exact vibe I want. Thank you.
I also have a question, how much money can you make from this as a career?
Man one question, how do you make that cloud effects. They look sooooo good. Also, thanks for everything you shared with us. Helps a lot!!! Love you.
Your stuff is awesome!
This video inspired me so much
Thank you so so much
I feel like you right now bro l but I'm stock on a 9 to 5 job but I'm trying learn blender and unreal engine because I don't wana work for a moving company the rest of my life this video was very helpful.
Important tips and totally agree. really good video - one of the best if not the best i've seen
You've made my day !!💯⚡
I relate strongly to the struggle of finding something to do for a career.

thx your suggestions！ I will find the best way to make what I wanted.
nice, a really eye opener
Can you do a video of lighting a night scene? I can't ever get my lighting to look dark, but bright enough where it's needed
Great video Max ❤
Very Very cool video bruv. Thanks alot
Again nice video! Very useful
You are my favorite and very inspiring!!
You are breathtaking ❤❤

Yooo you made illeniums album cover that’s dope asf dude
Hi Max. Im just about getting started into doing proper scenes after modeling quite a few things. But i still am unable to render dark scene such as your tutorial for bonfire in dark forest type without getting many noises. I did increase the sampling but that took about an hour per frame (8gb vram my rig. Is there any other way to reducing the noises without increasing the render time too much? On a low sample 128, (noise threshold 0.5000) render time was 1min30 seconds, but after changing both to default sample and threshold to 0.0100 render took 1hr for a frame. Please do share some advice on how to get it at least a bit faster and less noisier.
great tip brother
OMG, it's awesomeeeee 😯❤
0:51 I'm in the same situation (26M), where I don't have a job, can't choose a career, no "friends", aquintances, yes.
Thus no girlfriend , 😭
People, family at gatherings ask questions ❓😞
I mumble.
I do have a Computer science degree but that is not what I like as a career. _Although in India if you don't work at a MNC IT company you're gonna die poor_
Over here there's no place for Blender. It's all Autodesk , and Adobe.
How I found about Max is through ILLENIUM.
I listen to Odesza ILLENIUM Nurko etc etc.
I think that's the best thing happend to Max , he gets to make the artwork for his favourite artist.
How cool is that!🎉
Thank u for your video 🎉
wow beautiful
This is so inspiring
.....excellent video, I love your approach and the way you present it....keep up the great work....I'm subscribed......
I am glad I found you early
So many people loosely saying they are artists. I won't put myself near being an artist yet. I am a 3d hobbyist and a photographer. Some might think I am doing art in fancy sense but I am just exploring and learning new things. Nowdays people think they are what they decide to be in snap of the fingers and it is so unauthentic and plasticky. First put 1000 hours into it and then see if you are something near to what you wanted to be.
hola amigo, soy de Paraguay..tu vídeo ademas de servirme, también me inspira mucho estoy en la misma situación en la que empezaste
Thank You .
wait,you're the one who made ILLENIUM album artwork?!,god damn ,thats fkin insane
i liked it so much that i attempted to recreate it
You're super skilled at what you do, and the course seems great, but the course page has quite a few typos that you might wanna iron out.
Awesome work Max, one question, do you use Photoshop for the final composition? If yes, will u show it in ur course?
