@@withercreeper8465 Hi there! Now the project file must be oke to download! As for the alpha maps, import the bump map into photoshop and ad a curve effect and crank the values until you remain with clean white and black colors, then delete the black colors and save the image as PNG with transparency.
This is the first time I've ever seen anyone use this alpha blending technique in over a year of learning Blender. It's so simple, lightweight, and effective. It's one of those things that is so obvious now that I know about it I can't believe it never occurred to me before.
I can't tell you how frustrating and satisfying it is to see this. Here this whole time I'm thinking I'm a terrible artist and that everyone else must be some kind of genius that individually creates every single smidgen of detail in their models, only to come to realize (And recognize) how most of em are just using something like this. Thank you. I learned more in the first 4 minutes than I ever thought I needed and it's amazing.
It's been about two years from now I started learning Blender, but I never actually considered using alpha channel like this, and now I regret it! It'd have been so much easier and less time consuming if had I used it. Great tutorial mate, keep on uploading!
I've only ever used this technique for simple things. Wire fences, shudders on windows, and the metal parts of canopies. Never thought to use it in such an epic way.
Such simple yet top notch and marvelous ! This the the difference between the person how have knowledge and who don't. Thanks you so much for sharing your technique and works!
Thank you! I don't have that much knowledge but this method I found it myself through trial and error. Later I found out it's a well known method, so there's nothing new :))
Simply fantastic. The art style reminds me of the artwork for Levaithan Wakes but with the beautiful subtle camera motion. It's so high detail yet low poly that I find it really sucks my brain in to the scene. Can't express enough how awesome this is. I'd love to have something like this as a desktop background for wallpaper engine. Especially in the 21:9 format you've recorded this whole video in
I love the result! Something simple to implement that could help the final render would be a space hdri with stars and galaxies. Would make it look even cooler. Great job! I learned a lot.
@@StefeligaFlavius Oh, interesting. That is good to know! I had just based my idea of of most movies which have stars, but that makes sense about exposure.
I was expecting someone to say that will try on other software. PLEASE let me know how will end up! Send me via facebook or instagram your result! Cheers
This was absolutely amazing - I would be delighted to see more content of a similar sort, and consider yourself having gained a new subscriber and follower! ❤️
После того, как сделаете это, пришлите мне, пожалуйста, рендер. Я хочу собрать все мои подписчики рендеры об этом космическом корабле и снять об этом видео.
I imagine you were pressed for time, slowing down the animation by a lot would really help sell the huge size. Even though this is above my skill level your tutorial really got my creative juices flowing.
Can you suggest any other place to download JSplacement? the link in the description is now working. I checked and saw that the original site is down for sometime.
Awesome tutorial, thank you for sharing! I have Paul Chadeissons original artwork as my desktop background for about a year now and was so surprised to see your video in my feed!
Not scumbags, but amazing people that think that I've stolen the tutorial. There's someone else who posted a tutorial before me a month ago and it looks almost the same but little did they know that my animation was made 27 of April 2020, a year before any tutorial about this was uploaded. If they enter my Facebook page, they can check the date of this animation. :)) Frustrating and funny at the same time.
@@Corza dear Corza, I don't know even who are you and what you did, how many times do I have to tell everyone that I did this last year, 2020 only the tutorial is uploaded recently...
@@StefeligaFlavius I also think its some kind of bot/youtube thing because litterarly any (even videos there nothing to hate on) have dislikes + i think dislikes still help the algorythm

How to generate an alpha photo? I want to download the project file but it is expired.

@@StefeligaFlavius Thank you so much!!! That really helps me out!
I know 3D and how Blender works, but I'm still amaze by how insane a render can be just with a simple mesh.
Awesome job
Thanks
what? A tutorial using my full widescreen? Alright now I finally feel like living in the 21st century
:))
@@StefeligaFlavius me too, I feel validated. Suddenly the world seems brighter.
@@PeterNeill i don't know what you are talking about, i can't see this comment as the video fits my screen properly.
Wasn't even sure if I'm still watching a tutorial or have time traveled into the 23rd century :D
@@PeterNeill it isn't , it's dark, bitter and all manipulated, ... you know those foldfish , they used to handout un plastic bags ??
bro, this is insanely cool i learnt so much, subbed
Nice logo

Wat a u doing her?

Step 1: Add a cylinder
Step 2: Make it a spaceship

Its one of the oldest tricks in the smoke & mirrors book :-)
@@thomashovgaard3134 I've even used images with alpha transparency but it never occurred to me to use the alpha shader channel and edit the UV.
It's used in games a lot, at least it used to be.
I think you did just the right amount of taking some basics out for an intermediate tutorial. The results look phenomenal!

I still can't believe my eyes that those were all Alpha maps.. great work man..
Thanx
This looks like a movie i would love to watch
Phenomenal work. 😊
Thx
Would really love to see the editing and chromatic aberration work you did after all the modeling
Awesome way to add intricate detail in 3d models
The Chad of modelling workflow
That was legitimately one of the best blender tutorials I've ever seen. It was so easy to understand and follow what you were doing. Thank you!!
If you make the spaceship please let me know, I want to collect the renders of those who saw my tutorial and see how you approach the subject :)
The end result looks mental, very nice tutorial!
amazing! those alpha channel textures give you alot of free detail while staying lightweight, what a good idea!
This is such a great rundown of the steps you used - thanks for the insights.
You're welcome
@@StefeligaFlavius very easy steps!
I could listen to you forever
special thanks for links, files and textures
U're welcome! :)
You only have 1k- subs? You deserve 100K! Keep going man and thanks very much for your tutorial!
Thank you, it means a lot!
I will keep uploading tho :)
Stay awesome!
@@StefeligaFlavius absolutely looking forward to seeing the future!

Thank you for making this! I love megastructures, space renders, and giving the illusion of size. I learned a lot from your method thank you!
Thanks buddy!
SO cool,thanks!
Very nice space ship, love the idea how you dealt with the antennas.
I love the result! Something simple to implement that could help the final render would be a space hdri with stars and galaxies. Would make it look even cooler. Great job! I learned a lot.
Thanks!
I didn't added stars because in space is hard to see them because of too much exposure :D
@@StefeligaFlavius Oh, interesting. That is good to know! I had just based my idea of of most movies which have stars, but that makes sense about exposure.
I'll give a try later on Maya, great video !

Me after hearing all the steps and finishing the tutorial:
-Yes.
:)) you make me feel bad, It's my first tutorial ever, so please understand :D
@@StefeligaFlavius sorry! it's not your fault, it's just me who is a noob in blender and still gets lost with shortcuts and modes! ^^'
Flavious start ur own tutorial series. Ur method of teaching important principles is highly recommended.
I don't use Blender on my Uni course, and even I still saved this to my references page for the future. LOL Beautiful work here man.
NO WAY ITS ALMOST LIKE THE SAME THINGS HAPPEN IN ALL PROGRAMS
What are you studying in uni? :)
the editing and your voice made me want to subscribe, how informative the video is made me insta-subsribe
It means a lot! Thanks
This is one of the best tutorials I have ever seen- thank you so much! 🙌
The only one for sure!
Very nice post production too!
Wow you are a hidden gem man, it took my breath away. I just subscribed to ALL of your videos. Brilliant work.
Thank you, I appreciate it.
absolutely gorgeous!

@@StefeligaFlavius вау ! Хорошо 😄
Wow the end result looks amazing!
woah, never knew about follow active quads. That's so powerful!
there's also an add-on called UVsquares which does exactly with 1 button
@@carlossaliba3478 i tried uvsquares like a year ago and had a bad time. That said, I was fumbling my way through unwrapping back then
@@bannanafruitsalad did you ever watch any videos on it? its a really simple add on
@@carlossaliba3478 nah, I was literally just self teaching back then. I believe you
@@bannanafruitsalad fair enough
Amazing
Gorgeous, especially that shot at 17:06 ... this technique is brilliant for that sort of camera distance
Pro people doing spaceships, noob people doing donuts tutorial, me trying to make a basic square shape.
Damn..You are absolute legend..
Fantastic! You made my day! Excellent Tutorial. Thank you very much.
I imagine you were pressed for time, slowing down the animation by a lot would really help sell the huge size.
Even though this is above my skill level your tutorial really got my creative juices flowing.
I tried to slow it down and managed that a tiny bit with After Effects...but not too much.
@@StefeligaFlavius I just realized after watching it a few more times I was partly mistaking the camera movement for the large ship moving, by bad.
@@joeytheghost4211 No problem :D
Amazing tutorial dude
Now we know what you all are up to , when the Gay-parade is being canceled ..... and you mean Dudu
Holy f*ck... the post production is amazing!
We want more of these tutorials please!
Whoa! So impressive!
this is insanely cool. Hats off :D
Thank you
Incredible. 👍
im getting serious ian hubert vibes. Super cool. Great content :)
that was just great from start to finish.. finally got a small insight of how those "giant" spacestation renders in [any scifi movie] are done ;) tyvm
Thanks! Tho some giant spaceships from movies, are made on a real scale without this technique :D
please make more tutorial , i like the way you explanation its easy to understand and not make me bored
hahaha thanks man
Thanks man! I appreciate it! More are to come :)
I also use this add-on JSplacement, a very cool thing, you need to support such people. Nice tutorial best regards.

its suprising how less you have to model if you have the correct knowledge its awsome
Thanks :)
Insane talent 🔥
Amazing video, thanks for sharing!
Nagyon brutál!
Wow! Excellent tutorial!
Awesome tutorial, thank you for sharing! I have Paul Chadeissons original artwork as my desktop background for about a year now and was so surprised to see your video in my feed!

Maybe on facebook groups, I posted this animation last year on blender groups.
This is scary good!
