For those lost at @1:38:19 where he has a New Material. For some reason he skipped a step. Here is what to do. 1. locate the thin bar that is between the view of the sword, and the view of the nodes graph area below 2. locate the middle of the separating bar, where it says "slot 1" 3. it probably says "Checkers" if you have been following along 4. click the X button to the right of the material name to delete the checkered material 5. now you have a button there to create a new material called "+ New" click this. 6. He names it "Blade" so you can name yours "Blade" also. Now you are caught up with where he starts.
thank you
That was exactly where I got lost, thank you kind stranger!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
Thank you!!!
My savior
The fact that he gave us a 4 hour in depth course for free, is just amazing.
I WAS LITERALLY ABOUT THE COMMENT WORD FOR WORD. THIS MAN IS A HERO. IM HAVING A BLAST!💓🤘🏾🙌🏽🙌🏽
It made me consider buying the whole course.
god bless capitalism
I bought a Blender course on Udemy for about $20. The course was outdated and slow, what took an hour on the course took twenty minutes with this video, I cannot stress enough how amazing these free tutorials are compared to that "professionals" want to charge
it feels illegal
For those who can't apply bevel modifier: you probably have duplicated vertices.
To Remove Doubles: In Edit mode, select everything. Go to the menu in the top left corner of the viewport. and hit Mesh > Clean Up > Merge by Distance. This will remove any duplicated vertices.
It usually happens when you extrude a face, then cancel with the right-click. Right click only cancels the moving of the faces, not the creation itself. For that you also have to press ctrl+z.
THANKS!
Thanks, it was driving me NUTS!
youre a LEGEND
It still wont show the bevel
Im stuck on 36 minutes
Couldn't make a donut but my sword is looking🔥🔥
awesome....
Lmaoooo same 😂😂😂😂
Same that’s because this tutorial is just simply better at teaching you blender instead of hey that’s how you do that now let’s move on like bro you be teaching blender like how schools teach everyone
That's funny I nailed the donut but I cannot keep up with this guy and I feel like he's skipping something sometimes because my sword has weird seams all over it and I followed him pretty much 1 to 1.
@@sweatpantsninja599 u prob forgetting like cuts and stuff
When i thought my lost my blender battle over a donut, and here you came with sword and won over. This is such a quality tutorial and literally fast track!
yeah i messed up the donut too but made dope sword lmao
Same haha, idk why but that donut was hard!
Exactly, I don't know maybe I was having hard time trying to feel confortable moving and panning. I had the same experience with the donut, but this was super easy for me. And yes, I'm not clear about the reasons.
donut is outdated
a lot of options changed since
These tutorials are the best on TH-cam. Period. I've tried 4-5 now and got frustrated with the explanations. These are well-paced, steady, and assumes you know nothing (which, if you are watching this, you really don't). This is the real deal.
Very true!
I always got stuck on the uv and texture part.
This is very well explained, so now I'm unstuck! :)
Guys lets appreciate CG Fast Track for this VERY LONG tutorial
Bro I mean this tutorial would cost a hundred bucks but they taught us how to use blender for free!
49:25 If you cant scale vertices here, there is a chain looking icon at the center top screen, change that to Median point
Same... im stuck at that part, if you know how to do it please tell me
@@sayobaki It's the icon to the left of the magnet. The grid snap toggle button. Click the thing to the left of that and in the pulldown menu there is median point. He has it toggled to median point but he doesn't address it.
@@RobertZabriskie can u please show in a picture. i don't understand
You lifesaver
oh god thank you i thought i was stuck forever
I can't believe that such a quality content is free, you're truly an amazing person, thanks ♥
My thoughts exactly, I learnt sooo much
@@tomk6292 lol dont give him the idea to make this stuff for money
hey cg fast track if u read this dont feel upset its not against u its against those who do everything FOR money
@@uprise2229 True
@@adityar7370 everything i s1y 8s true soooo....
I dont need ur opinion
No im just kidding
@@uprise2229 well said
CG: You're a very good educator. Concise, instructive and straight-forward. I'm so sick of donuts!
i couldn't do the donut tutorial
try the chair tutorial
TBH, Andrew's doughnut tutorial is just as incredible than this one. I think it gives a better and more thorough introduction than this one, but also a lot more to remember. Also this one has a much cooler end product
@RoCryptO Yeah me as well, part 4 level 1 was it? Yeah apparently there were some settings not discussed during the earlier videos, not only that but Blender Guru was apparently using a somewhat older version of blender, which apparently changed the UI enough to make those who follow that specific series tutorial more confusing and harder to follow.
@@mike3828 yes probably because i was using 2.9 version i couldnt follow him much, and got stuck at the icing too
30:00 If anyone is having trouble with the Alt-Shift-Click short for selecting multiple loop cuts, just double click the loop + Shift.
P.S. You are a lifesaver CG Fast Track, thank you so much for taking the time to teach everyone from the ground up, I've seen a lot of tutorials over the years but yours is hands-down the best!
Thanks a lot!! : )
@@yungshreddy yea same...
thank you
Dude, fuck yeah! Lifesaver over here.
you're a lifesaver😀
This is probably the best tutorial of anything that ever existed. It's not even a tutorial, this is a full beginner course worth a good money. Incredible you share it for free.
Totally Agree! DONOT watch 8 hours before you watch this!
11:31 Also F9 works if that menu disappears
Excuse me??? Only 2 thumb ups for this tip?!!! This has bothered me since I started!! I thought Blender cannot be so stupid that it does not allow me to bring back that menu if I accidentally click off. There's gotta be a way right?! Yet no beginner blender tut includes this tip... Thank you mate! (Of course the tut IS awesome. I salute this channel. :))
You are welcome dude, I actually knew of this in the comments of the donut tutorial
@@antonioalejandroaa5699 Me too
For some reason when i add the shape it that menu doesn’t even show up
I wonder did you learn blender?
If anyone’s confused about 1:38:38 , he created a new material with the button to the right of the checkers tab and then deleted the orange shader. Took some time to figure out since I’m new haha
Thnx bro I am just doing this and I don't know how did he do this
Thank you!!!
im still confused. it would be great if you can explain in another way, if thats possible.
@@asalhia19 click new material tab button to the right of the name checkers rename it to Blade, then click on where you see image texture and click remove. That's it.
Thank you! I was looking forward to actually completing a tutorial without it going sideways on me and went slightly bonkers when I couldn't figure this out. I owe you a pizza.
did any of you observe there are no even adds on this tutorial playing , thank you CG FAST TRACK for providing this amazing tutorial for free of cost...
I can’t stress this enough. THANK YOU!. Tried getting into blender a couple years ago and the tutorials that I found were either rushed or would skip steps that a complete rookie like me wouldn’t get. This is hands down the best I’ve found. So thank you again.
UPDATE: Part 3 will be ready and uploaded tomorrow (Late Friday night PCT the 23rd).
damn did not expect a 2 hour video :D will start on this tonight! :D
@@MrCruzor me to
I saw the other video and then i subscribed i searched for the other video and it was like uploaded three hours ago. I was thinking," god is showering me with gifts".
I was wondering if it was comin
I am extremely waiting for part 3
i followed the 2.8 version of your tutorial and i finished it this morning
now i learned something that i can be proud of myself beside just playing video games
thank you so much sir for the knowledge you're sharing
i'll start to make a completely different scene with the sword
Hey can you tell me..
11:38:39 how he remove only blade checkers colour?
@@dhruvsoni6818 he removed the image texture node for it
I already had a lot of respect for you for giving us this amazing course for free, but then I noticed the clips you used in the beginning from your portfolio and realised you're far more than some cool guy who likes to teach people stuff, you've worked on one of the animations that made me want to learn this, the clash of clans videos, i absolutely love those! Thank you for all of your work and for inspiring so many people!
I would just like to say thank the creator of this video so much. The entire 3D Art community is top notch when it comes to teaching each other. So wholesome and gives me a warm feeling.
I love that you use footage of the sword to transition between chapters, it serves as a frequent reminder/motivator of what we're working towards!!!
This is a lot cooler than the donut making tutorials, Omg I've never learned so much about blender until now, And here comes the King of Blender Tutorials!
Thank you so much CG Fast Track. Well I have to say this is really a fast track towards blender and the 3D World!
Waaaay way better than the donut!!
I've now seen 3 completely brand new Blender users (people in my family) make donuts that equal or exceed Andrew's donut thanks to his tutorial. For literal 100% brand new beginners Blender Guru's donut tutorial is awesome.
It's not an end all be all nor was it intended to be, neither is this video, speaking of after completing the donut tutorial I'm tasking them with this sword tutorial because it covers a different set of skills which will be very useful for them to learn more about topology.
as someone who's tried getting into blender several times over the past decade, I agree. This feels like the time I'm actually getting somewhere
@@Otie64 I tried the donut and i gave up but it took until part 2 to give up this time
FRIENDLY REMINDER TO SAVE *VERY* OFTEN!!!
blender crashed while i was doing the rune part and my last save was from modeling the blade. Don't let it happen to you!!
I'm glad that you guys made an easy to follow tutorial that gets straight to the point.
This is the first time I've had my attention held long enough to learn the basics of blender. You do a really good job of teaching this stuff. You are going in the right order. I worked in Lightwave back in the 90s so I had a rudimentary understanding but you have brought this into sharp focus for me. Thank you.
DUDE!!! Coming from a rival package I can no longer afford now that I'm unemployed, I just wanted to thank you for Lazy Viewport ! Well done. Great tuts, also.
Definetly one of the most beginner friendly tutorials on the platform saying from a beginners perspective in this series you can learn all the basic blender stuff you use to upgrade ur knowledge later on.Great series loved it !
Fantastic tutorial. Your explanations are really clear and you've got a great way of speaking which isn't annoying.
Quick tip if you're on blender 2.8, the "Merge" option for vertices is under the "Vertex" tab, instead of "Mesh". Took me a while to find it
THANK YOUUU!
Quick tip if you're on blender 2.8: update
thank you
thank u
🤍
Coming from Maya and getting confused by the way the transform tools are activated, I praise you for the lazy viewport script. Praise, praise, praise!!! This just made my day, week, month or even years I will spend in Blender.
This way of teaching is brilliant. There is no comparison to live lectures. When you’ve missed something, you go back a little bit, and focus on the mistake you made. Great lecturer!
Ngl when i first watched this it feels like your working at insane speed, now that ive come back to it (to finish it) i know so many methods and hotkeys which make it so much faster.
Absolutely love this tutorial! Honestly been feeling sort of lost and this has sparked true now and passion on working in. Definitely going to be something I want to not just be a hobby but a line of work too.
Definitely the best tutorial I have come across. I have always had problems learning blender, but so far you guys have made things super easy for me!
this is the most entertaining course I have watched until now , the steps are easy to follow and I don't get bored while watching it like other channels
These videos are so helpful for me! I just got a Wacom One from my boyfriend for Christmas. I have been following along with my laptop on here and I am learning a lot! So nice of you to offer these tutorials for free! I am more of a hands on sculptor and have been very interested in digital art, this will definitely help me! 😊
You encouraged me when I felt it hard to model, and, now I am again feeling like I can do it. Thanks ! Keep it up !
thank you so much for simple tutorials it is the highlight of my day when I get a project finished and I have no problems whatsoever
2nd trainer I've watched and I really like your approach to going through the interface thoroughly. Its a VERY intricate interface and requires a complete breakdown, often with examples to understand the concepts. Thanks!!!
This is probably the most lucid and complete explanation I have come across! Many thanks!
dude, thank you so so much
stopping at the beginning of sword modelling for today- but i already learned so much more than i did from blender guru
i can make a gear in abt 50-ish seconds by memory and that was from seeing you make it once
seriously, thank you so so much :)
11:15
alternatively, you can press f9 to bring that menu back up
Whaaaaaaaaaaattt
@@CGFastTrack yea, its kind of like a quick recall of whatever you last clicked on, but if youre halfway through designing or editing the shape it wont :(
question though: im trying to apply the bevel thing but it isnt actually doing anything, even when its the only modifier. any way to fix this? thanks :)
During the blade part, you will not see it’s effect until the subdivision is on.
I just had to come back to write a comment i just finish the entire sword animation and im so happy i found ur page such a great teacher. This was made so easy to follow and understand i might not understand everything yt but its a perfect start...thank you
I just love how in depth this is showing the full step by step instead of just using shortcuts, means i can actually learn what the hell im doing
this is one of the best tutorials i have ever seen on youtube. thank you for uploading
HOW? How do you not have over 10 million subscribers yet? Your tutorials are absolutely amazing man.
I can not believe that this video is free. The amount of work that went into this is just great! Thanks, brother.
Downloaded and installed the lazy viewport addon. I have to wonder why Blender didn't do it this way from the start. Thanks for that handy tool! I have played around with Blender for quite a while off and on, but gave up on it out of frustration with tutorials that assume prior knowledge of the program, or fly through stuff so fast you can barely follow along. This series is much better.
First of all: Great content. Really easy to follow along.
Secondly I just wanted to mention a little issue I had with the UV on the blade. After following all the steps the checkers material was still warped and my UV display was only showing one side of the blade.
After spending an hour trying to correct it by trying different things I decided to just rebuild the blade from scratch and try again. This came out with the same results. This time however I was like, huh, only 1 UV side for the blade isn't how it's supposed to be. So I right-clicked my UV-thing-ma-bob and saw the option "Mirror X", I wondered what that would do so I clicked it and that basically fixed my UV map.
Thought this could be usefull to someone in the future.
Thanks again for all the amazing content!
Thank you Bro. I wasn't sure why this issue was happening either. So happy i checked the comments!
thx for saving my time :D my uv on the blade was reversed i don't even know why so i was about to spend hours figuring out
Did you have any problems with the pommel? Cause I'm struggling to figure out what I'm doing wrong.
@@SM-zf6ye what issues do you have w/ the pommel?
Oh my fucking god, thanks bro I've got the same problem and I've been trying to fix this for 30 minutes. I almost gave up. Thank you so much man.
If anyone else's bevel modifier doesn't seem to do anything, turn off "Clamp Overlap" under "Geometry"!
This is by far is the best tutorial i've ever watched after struggling with blender for years, i always end up giving up on it but i learned a lot with you and started to love it! thank you. i'll purchase courses on the website to support you!
Bruhhhhh, this is really encouranging for us that dream one day be working on vfx and animation
Can’t wait for part 3 I followed along so easily I’ve never seen someone explain blender this good thank youuuuuu👍👍😄
11:43
Him: It changes the vertices!
Me: Sets it to a million
Blender: Dies
Yup.. i get this same in 57:20 .. crash and 2 hours of learning gone
@@snipechan3480 If you go to File, Recover, Auto Save, yo may recover a good chunk of that work!
honestly tho....
@@snipechan3480 It's not gone, you learned a lot and you get better by repeating the proces. Always look at the bright side ;)
Pc becomes a vacuum
Absolutely fantastic video thank you! I learned to model 3 years ago in Cinema 4D and haven't used it since. Picked up blender for the first time and got straight back into it with no problems thanks to your video 10/10. Absolute saint.
that is one of the best made tutorials I´ve ever seen! As a real beginner I thank you really very much for this work!
Okay really cool. I’ve been debating on jumping into 3D Modeling for cosplay/3D Printing. I saw you have a tutorial on building a mask/helmet as well. I might start with this sword build then checkout the subscription option
Yea I'm thinking about paying for a month, his tutorials are well paced for a noob as me.
Where did you see the helmet one
@@rodrigo76387 I believe it was in the link in the video description. Showed available video classes. One was a helmet if I remember right
Your videos were part of the inspiration for me to learn 3d modelling too, nice to see you here. :)
@@umeshsharma-dm8vl its good keep it up !
When trying to adjust the runes into the right spot, I found that if I adjust the scale in mapping for that assignment, I got the runes to fit just right. So, instead of 80 to 10, I played around and 77 to 10 was perfect. Instead of having to make a whole new assignment for the back!
I'm really loving this tutorial by far the best and clearest one I have found yet. Thank you guys! I'm almost through the whole thing and can't wait to keep learning:)
Your channel is amazing, I've searched for a Blender tutorial to start modelling to my games, and here I am. It's easy to understand and practice. Thanks.
Bro, this is a great tutorial!
I'm making unity games and I figured it's time I jump into Blender; I tried the famous donut tutorial but nothing really clicked for me. This, on the other hand, is a super well done tutorial! Very professional! You've got another sub from me! 😁
Man !!! It's a life saver !!! I was missing gizmos so much as I was familiar to 3ds max and Maya ... Thanks for the lazy viewport plug in... Really thanks a lot ...❤️❤️❤️
I Just finished this course, and I'm super happy about it. It was lot of fun! Thanks CG Fast Track!
I've been putting off learning Blender for years, but this was great. My biggest stumbling block as a Sketchup user was hitting 'O' to orbit around which made individual move/scale operations affect the entire object. Oh, and I spent an hour backtracking to make the blade geometry look the same as it does in the 'Shader' section near the end of the video. The groove that's modelled step-by-step looks very different.
Thank you so much
Bro tu account change karna vul geya 😂
woah a verified youtuber with only one like? lol
@@Plejaden Bro u don't know but he really respected editor and yah He is Indian and No one want to lern Blender that's why no one see his chat here... And if u want to let editing then plz... Checkout him ❤️👍🏻

I WANT TO THANK TO CG FAST TRACK A LOT, LIKE FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE HEART. My sword is not like yours but I'm pleased with the results. May you could make more tutorials. I'm going to part 3 now
You Guys at CG Fast Track are truly amazing!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge
This is such an excellent practice and introduction to patience as well and I realized how this pushes you to pay really close attention to detail and instructions. Very well done!
10/10 tutorial. But I'd like to share 1 tip. Save after u complete each part as different file you don't know where you will go wrong or not. Just that you will regret it at UV shading.
Great tip.
Best Blender tutorial on TH-cam, 10/10!
Just wanted to say thanks for making these available. Great information and clearly presented. Really appreciate it
THANK YOU LAZY VIEWPORT. As someone coming from Solidworks Visualize... this has made blender so much easier for me!!!!
I didn't notice it mentioned but a keybind I find really useful is Shift+Z, which toggles wireframe on and off.
Awesome. I. Skipping this one cus I have advanced so far from the website and completed the original 2.8 version. I have so much to credit you for and I dont even know where to begin. You have made a drastic improvement on my blender game and I'm actually good at it now! Thanks so much for these
That’s so great to hear!
The fact that this is available for free along with blender which is free just shows what a world of opportunity we live in! Great video thank you!
Amazing tutorial led by an amazing teacher! When your creativity is there but you don't know where to start. This is pure fuel. Huge thanks!
In the Bevel modifier section when I delete the subdivision, my edges are still sharp and not smooth :// Can you help?
23 minutes in and I have created five different gears. I timed myself and created one in just one minute! Think I'm a pro now? Maybe not yet. Great tutorial so far.
wow slow down hun
Amazing Tutorial had problems with the bevel modifier on the blade messing up my rune texture but I found a way for it to work and again amazing tutorial!!!!
Tried a couple of other tutorials before I found this one, and although the official tutorial is very good, I found this one superior. Perhaps it helped that I have a thing for swords and armor. Thank you very much to the channel. Looking forward to part 3 and will probably purchase your course.
I have learned Ps, Ai & Ae from YT videos and been trying to learn C4D &/or Blender. This is by far the most comprehensible set of tuts I have come across and the only 3d modeling ones I was able to follow to a T all the way through. Big Thanks & much gratitude. The step by step screenshots sounded like a great idea too, I just could not locate them anywhere.
I just saw your animation reel. I never knew you were the one behind some of my favorite animations, clash of clans and the animation with Messi and other players against the robot fakes
Hi all, if you are having issues at approx 37.30 mins where you add the subdivision modifier to the guard and it becomes a curved shape rather than the squared shape in the video. it's because of the limit method angle on your bevel modifier. I found reducing it to 58% rather than 60% solved the issue. Basically when extruding and moving the face you may end up with a slightly different angles to that in the video so the limit method needs to be adjusted to compensate. Took me a little time to work out so hope this helps others having the same issue.
bless
THANK YOU
Iv done a few paid blender courses on Udemy which I always got stuck half way and didn't bother finishing them and never found them this intuitive and fun to follow along. The fact that he repeats many things like having the factor of the loop cut that must be at zero even though that was automated helps us remember for our own projects in the future. Thank you for this course Iv only reached half way but Iv never been this confident to finishing a blender project. The end looks like an amazing animation I cant wait to finish and follow along the next tutorial. 🙏
man u guys r the best..giving everythin with tutorials....textures ,measurements ,extentions ,screenshots , this all this just too good to be true seriously......i didnt imagined that blender will be this fast to lern...its my 1.5 hrs after seeing ur vedio can go everythin on my own right from the start....!! just too awesome man...like seriosuly stopped the vedio nd came here to comment coz this all is just soo perfect soo easy and those screenshots things nd that too without any charges...man uou guys are the best..!! now gettin back to work
just awesome dude...love from Inda
thank you so much for the free lesson, every broke ass student be learning so much from you
This is free?! GODS BLESS YOU. Thanks for this exceptional quality content
You're videos are great. Good explaining, learning from you way more and way faster than from other tutorials.
Very interactive , good
quality of screen , Perfect all in all .
For anyone struggling with the rune letters "leaking"/"bleeding" out of your groove, the issue is you need to add more loop cuts to the blade. To make it really easy to see what's happening, make your blade a simple material that is base color blue and the groove of the blade a simple material base color yellow. Have your bevel and subdivision modifiers visible in edit mode and enter edit mode in the normal Layout view. You'll immediately see the colors are weird and reflect your bleeding problem. Make a new loop cut along each geometry edge of the blade and groove (start at top of groove since this is the biggest problem area) and you'll slowly see the color edges improve. Keep going until you're happy that the yellow color is staying in the groove correctly, then go back and reassign your Blade materials. Hope this helps some people, as I was stuck for a while myself!
Hmmm but isn’t his sword at the rune part completely different, maybe I just made mistake but it feels like the faces are at completely different places?
Thank you, Lucia!
Thank you so much!
and yeah @Liam, the blade of his sword is not exactly the same
Notification CGFastTrack uploaded part 2 = Instant like
you frigging taught me so many things with this tutorial even tho i completed the famous doughnut tutorial ,since i was having so much trouble on how to model sth else besides a doughnut.
I couldnt understand how to smooth edges cause i didnt use bevel at all at that tutorial and now i get it.plus you teach about correct topology which now i start to understand .everything is so smooth .ill buy your tuts and you just got a perma subscriber .ty for this tutorial i hope i can get to your level someday even tho im too old(36) and in a completely different sector (telecom) to switch but i always found 3d scenery and art to be soothing my soul and expressing feelings through someone elses art .
If your UV looks wonky when you get to the Blade, this is what helped me:
**Place the Bevel modifier BELOW the Subdivision modifier.**
Thanks, mate, you saved my sword
Literally a godsend thank you
Genius!
but doesnt this change the shape and sharpness of the blade??
@@OfficialVendettaHD Slightly, but it wasn't a big enough difference in my side of things.
Cant wait to block off time and dive into this 💪💪
The quick favourite feature is now my favouite thing. Coming from max and using the hotkeys for move, rotate and scale to blender where it's completly different buttons completly threw me off so I've struggled with them a bit. I added them into my quick favourites and it's soooo much easier to use now. Thanks!
The fact that you never adress the UV Map's text on it was amazing.
Thank you so much for this course!
I haven't done Blender in a while, this is great to catch back up. the addon really helps, I missed that style from Maya. thanks!
If anyone having problem around 1:06:49 when he applies shade smooth n if u r getting some glitch around your upper middle part of sword then increase your subdivision modifier level view to 3 .
thanks!
You can also go into the Bevel modifier in your properties tab and set the "limit Method" to None. I think in later versions it is set to Angle by default. (Found in an older comment)
@@Blackness1994 thank you i like your solution better
Your Lazy viewport addon is pure gold
This is awesome, really helped me get started out and learn the basics. You explain everything really well
Rune Assignment - 01:52:43 if you are getting problem where your rune texture is not fitting properly in the grove then just add 2 vertical loop cuts in the grove, one at each side and horizontal loop cut just above the grove and then select the faces as shown in video and assign it to the material
