He has made "Donut" the "Hello World" of 3D ❤️🔥
What is hello world from again?
@@fusion1203 As far as I know, it comes from computer programming. Look up any tutorial on a programming language, and it's probably the first thing you do.
@@ChrisOsberg ohhh right now I remember XD
a Donut will be ALL that you make!! lol Bet...
Sure 😂😂😂😂
If you’re making this donut right now, don’t give up. It might be difficult to get through the tutorial, but you can do it!! Just think of all the marvelous creations you’ll make once you finish making the donut!
NEVER GIVE UP! YOU CAN DO IT!
we are the senior veterans of 3d cgi.
I only give up because he hasn't released all the parts at the same time 😂
but if you feel tierd you should tkae one day off and then comback you will fell refreshed and alot better in your preformance
Never Give up plus ur under a professional CGI creator who is extremely amazing as a guide to ur Success. Well, I'm also learning with him
@12:30 IMPORTANT TIP about the "Circle of Influence" that I learned the HARD way! If your proportional edit isn't moving JUST a part of the donut but the WHOLE donut, then like me, you've somehow scrolled the SIZE of your circle of influence to be SO big, that now you're moving you whole donut as if in Object mode. As a beginner I tried everything to figure WHY it was doing this. Finally, I decided that my best route to figure out what the problem was, was to begin anew with a new donut. Sure enough, I see the "Proportion Size (Smooth):" on the upper left and notced it was way smaller on this newer file. I was able to go back and fix my old bad donut file. Thank GOD. Hope that helps someone who messes up with the scroll wheel the way that I did.
Lifesaver, thank you. I was panicking because i didn't understand the mistake I made. Thanks for leaving this comment
@@esthersweet6424 You're welcome! I'm too new to lose my faith in this program! Must keep tunnelling!
Holy shit thank you, i began being crazy haha
Thank you so much! I was super confused as to why the entire donut was moving lol
thank you!!!
This is the third donut series I'm following along with for fun since I started with Blender years ago. It's so nostalgic and enjoyable following along with Andrew after all this time. For all you people new to the world of 3d. I know it will feel hard and confusing at first, but don't give up through that first steep learning curve, it's really a life changing experience. After 3 years I was finally able to make Blender my full-time work and it all started with this donut. 🍩
Im going for it hard this year. Seeing messages like this inspires me. I'm happy for ya.
thank u so much
Hi! I cannot get Smooth/Flat shade property through right click as Blender Guru told us. Whenever I do right_click, the donut gets unselected and no property appears. Would you be able to guide me about it?
16:04 - If you are not able to select edge as shown by selecting alt+left_click, it is because:
'You have checked "Emulate 3 button mouse" in preference setting' in previous video.
Yeah ... seriously ... get a mouse with a scroll wheel.
@@BeheadedKamikaze for 50 cents, or from a landfill.
If you do double click it will works
Thanks bro. I got stuck for a hot minute
@@antoniomoreno2837double clicking didn't work for me tho
Once again, Blender Guru sets the bar for 3D tutorials. The depth, pacing, and clarity are unmatched!
@@weplaywax who's that?
right of talking way too much and not explaining to the point of the tutorial you can actually get lost while he is giving A story that has nothing to do with IT
Not too mention entertaining as heck!! I still get a good laugh when watching. Need more tutorials like this. Feels less like a class and more like a hangout sesh with a buddy.
I graduated with an AS degree in 2005 for Computer Animation. I never got into this as my career and now almost 20 years later I'm wanting to get back into 3d modeling and so far this tutorial is just amazing. I spent 10s of thousands of dollars for my education and it is just insane how much information is available online for free. Thank you so much!
I have been using blender for more than 10 years, I use it professionally, I just this second learned about proportional editing, I’ve been loop selecting and circle grabbing vertices and then push/pulling and shrinking to deform things, for YEARS I am going to CRY why is Blender ALWAYS LIKE THIS
The donut legacy must live on!
Yes! More donuts
Hot key for proportional editing is “o”, and you can also change different formats of fall off by clicking the dropdown.
O shortcut for proportional editing mode and SHIFT+O for the Falloff type of the proportional editing mode
Bro do u think 3d world would be robbed by ai?
@@18th_angelo Yup
thank you! I was wondering why it was not working

Finding your channel has inspired me to start trying to use Blender, which I had downloaded but didn't use because I was overwhelmed at first. Your tutorials are very clear, informative and of a high quality. Keep up the excellent work and thanks very much for sharing it.
How is this not pinned
@@EdansGaming probably because the vid is over 4 months old.
I had bought a few online courses and they really show a lot (they explain pretty much every function) but this is the first time I've really enjoyed a tutorial. As mentioned in the previous part, you don't need to know everything. Praxis is almost more important, everything else comes with time. I can use the purchased courses perfectly as a supplement afterwards, but for learning and memorizing the basic functions, this tutorial is unbeatable! Thank you so much for your time and effort, you are just opening up the world of 3D editing to me. 🤗
I've seen some breathtaking creations on the internet but I always deemed it impossible to ever learn myself. Last week I saw some amazing fantasy world and I finally decided I want to make something like that too! I found this tutorial and I am so happy I did! Your instructions are so clear and it makes it less overwhelming and very fun. 😀
Hi! Can you share some of the works/artists that you like for 3D? I find it hard to find them for some reason, my algorithm didn’t detect this part of me yet😅
This series is a reunion of all kinds of artists newbie, seniors and also many legends.
And regardless of skill level everybody want to follow along him and make the donut .
Thank you so much sir for this beautiful series
I have been working with blender for years. I learned more in the past two videos than I have in that entire time. Things are so much faster with all the hot keyes!
learned blender on the V2 of this series, forgot it all and now I'm back! It's honestly just as fun as I remember and the instructions are so clear its hasn't left me looking for answers. Thank you so much!
Learning from a very small village of India. This guy is literally my Guru.
why is it always india
It doesn't have to be India all the time, I also learn from Turkey. ;)
But it may be that India's population is really high (1.5 billion)
Turkey's population is 85 million. So you don't need to be surprised, normal 😁
im learning from Venezuela xd
im learning from the Netherlands
@@gavyndadog9498 And why being in a very small village matters this much? lol
I'm working in 3D field for 20 years, but I love following that tutorial like I never used a 3D software before ❤
I took a break from blender 6 months ago, but my new years resolution is to be good at it again, I've felt like this video has taught me more than I remember!
I’m working on making my first donut now, but I gotta say, those last 40 seconds or so was the most valuable part thus far. It is a steep learning curve and we are in the middle of it and it does seem very foreign, but it’s been fun. Thank you thus far and thank you for the encouragement too.
I've been dabbling in 3d for too many years to count. I created and animated an Eagle Transporter from Space 1999 in Povray when there was no graphical front end, you had to code the shapes, distortion and movement in a text file. I played with the Blender Game Engine a few years back, throwing balls at a wall and dropping rain into puddles. Now I'm back and starting from square 1. Thanks for starting your series again for v4. I'm really looking forward to getting some great results. And when I make it to Hollywood I promise to put a donut in my first movie! 😁👍
for all of you out there who are struggling, KEEP GOING, you will get it. I learned blender less than 4 months ago using this man's 3.6 tutorial. It's the one you want to watch. I would rewatch every section of each video 5 to 20 times each so ik it can be rough. I'm re-watching the tutorial to learn the new 4.0 update but I've only replayed maybe 3 sentences total. So it really will get easier.
Dude I went through that struggle too. It get's pretty crazy but also alot of fun when you get to Geometry Nodes.
For real, I’ve been trying these donut tutorials since the first one and I still can’t make it past Part 2…putting aside that there are parts of Part 1 that I have to skip because I can’t figure them out. In so many years of trying to learn the basics of this program I still don’t understand what any of the keys or features mean, I haven’t been able to memorize how to navigate around, and I still rely on File>New project as my Deselect button because there just doesn’t seem to be one.
I feel like I’ve wasted years of my life and I hate myself for being this stupid. I don’t understand why people say this stuff is fun 😭
I'm 2 videos in. I'm no expert and I'm sure things will get worse but so far everything seems semi logical
Hi! I cannot get Smooth/Flat shade property through right click as Blender Guru told us. Whenever I do right_click, the donut gets unselected and no property appears. Would you be able to guide me about it?
@ayeshajaved8243 You are probably left clicking. If using a laptop, make sure you are using the very bottom right of the track pad to cause the right click menu to pop up.
Thanks so much for this tutorial, I've been using Blender for a couple weeks now, and it's been pretty discouraging. You've made it a ton easier for me to get into it, and follow along.
You remind me of my design and manufacturing teacher… very calm, easy to understand, fun, just all the good traits
Great News! I just made a donut-oid in Blender 4.0 !!! I've just watched previous versions of the donut tutorials but now I did it ... finally. So far so good!
Now I'm saving a link to the playlist and wait for more! :D
My first time ever using Blender and you're making it so easy. Thank you so much!
This has a million views and over a thousand comments.
But I still want to say that this is so cool and fun to follow along having no prior experience.
It nicely shows off some features I never knew existed while also explaining it in a way that makes me think I actually understand what's happening instead of just repeating the steps mindlessly.
I'm coming from the 2d world with Affinity Designer and really appreciate this course. Helps me a lot. There is so much going on in these menus and toolbars, I needed a gouging hand like this.
At the end of this course I can redo my profile pic in 3d, I'm already confident in this one.
I learned a lot of things since the old tutorial but it's a pleasure to watch it again. By now I am very comfortable watching and trying to catch that little things I missed on the old one. There's always one more thing to learn. You are encouraging people to get into blender, kudos to the Guru!
Hi! I cannot get Smooth/Flat shade property through right click as Blender Guru told us. Whenever I do right_click, the donut gets unselected and no property appears. Would you be able to guide me about it?
i've started working on these tutorials, and i'm amazed at what i've managed to do! thank you very much
I just began learning 3D with Blender, and this donut tutorial made it so easy for me. Thanks a lot!
Dear Blender Guru 🙏 I just did the monkey and am now on my way to those faboulous looking donuts - I started my blender journey years ago, but too often got distracted by something and stopped learning. Following your tutorial has made me want to really go all the way with blender this time - and I am happy to have found your great tutorials!! 😍thank you so much for your work!
When this dropped yesterday every 3D artist known to man grabbed the popcorn and strapped in for some viewing pleasure! BLENDER GURU 4 LYFFFFFFFFFFFFF!
P.S would LOVE more intermediate level tutorials :)
I have tried to learn blender, but I never could bcz of no good playlist for it on TH-cam. But he is making it very easy to learn, specially loved the way he is teaching each and every detail (like explaining every button settings and every shortcut key for different OS users), these details make it very easy. Also the way he teaches making it look simple even a 5 year old kids understand his teaching easily. Couldn't resist without liking his video, commenting and subscribing him. Bcz he is providing them for free where as even paid courses never teach this easily and in detail. Thankyou very much sir.
i love his accent, it makes the tutorial comedic a little bit and that I enjoyed while learning blender on this video and the genuine teaching us how to work blender in a very understanding way helps out a lot on the learning there as well so thank you!
Got inspired to try blender after a group project, so glad I found your tutorial its great to follow along with and learning the shortcuts is gonna save so much time. Thank you!
Thank you so much for updating this tutorial for 4.x Andrew. You’re a star.
He is the whole Moon... 😝
Good look to everyone who just started! Keep at it! If you manage to reach the end of the donut series, a whole new world awaits you!
Pro tip: Don't forget to save often!
Finally getting into blender to augment pre-made things and make them my own. Appreciate the encouragement that this can be learned well from home. Maybe I'll eventually get to making my own assets but I'm experimenting for now!
This is how you teach a lesson. Every moment where someone could have gone astray the recognition and solution is there.
I think you'll find that blend is indeed a word. 😉
I did the full series a couple of iterations ago, and I'm doing it again because they're great!
Petition to change the official Blender file extension to ".blende". 🥸

Taurus? You mean Torus?
@@geminiRA Yes it was a mistake
12:26 didn't get that 😅 can you explain more about 😅
where are options? I don't see anything there.
@@coolkid006did you find out? I can’t find the bottom left options either on mac 😭😭😭
Doing this tutorial for the 3rd time over the last few years, thank you so much for making these!
first time i made the donut i gave up 80% into the build.. but now after i have done lots of other tutorials - I'M BACK BABY!!!.. challenge accepted!!! :D
I just finished part 1 and now part 2 is up didn't have to wait! 🙌
Good luck!!!
Don't give up when you see that the tutorial series is long. You'll the necessary skills you need to make whatever you need. Best of luck to you!

@@ayeshajaved8243trying changing modes either object or edit mode then try right clicking
Wow!
Part 2 dropped, way to go!
I have been following you for a long time and I have been making these with you in every version of blender. Although I am much more advanced now, it is still fun to do and I also like to compare them with the past versions I have made. I think my first one was in version 2.8. Thanks for all you do.
Such a great tutorial vid. Great pace, explaining the reasoning behind the tools, yet still concise and clear. Well done and thanks for making this series!
16:04 the one that works in my scenario is Hold Shift+ Double Left Click to the edge
And so it begins
yo dude how is it going, achieved something yet?
The most useful part of this video. Deleting the default cube, the best way to start your 3D workflow
Thank you for the tutorial and the whole series, i'm trying to learn how to use blender so I can animate, and you have really been helping me! Your tutorials are fun and simple, and very understandable. I really appreciate the amount of work you put into your tutorials. Thank you!
Whoo! Part 2! 👍
Such a great tutor Blender Guru.
I'm really loving that "free course" about blender. It is open to the new entry on Blender!! Thank you!
Just started Blender after working a bit in Nomad Sculpt. The switch was mainly to be able to do animation. I'm hoping to learn it one hour a day as that's all my schedule leaves me and the tutorials have been incredibly helpful!
You've donut again!
I'm using a macbook pro to do this.. found out that at 16:00 he uses alt click to select the circumfrence. I don't have alt haha turns out double clicking did the trick
Been using C4D for 20 years on a daily basis, always avoided learning Blender. I still love c4D but feel I should know more tools. thanks for these tutorials. much appreciated.
i actually was kinda decent in the blender world but i stopped for a long while so i forgot everything i did the other donut tutorials too.Thank you bro really useful
With the path blender tutorials have been going through recently, im surprised the blender 4.0 donut guide isnt all just geometry nodes
That would be absolutely brutal 🤣 trying to teach a complete 3D newbie geometry nodes without knowing how to model first. They would (rightly) run away screaming!
hello fellow blender learner, let’s see when i give up. my prediction is episode 6.
This tutorial is really good. I literally never made anything in 3D animation before but I feel like I understand how it works pretty well
Insane confidence boost, my program crashed and I lost everything, but I was able to get back to where I was in the tutorial on my own super quickly. It was like a lil pop quiz lol (definitely remembering to save often from now on!)
Pro tip: You can array a modern light special tracing algorithm to be efficiently implemented within a real-time rendering pipeline, considering the challenges of managing complex scene geometries in the option menu in Blender. This is a very easy concept you should know.

Finalmente vou ter a chance de seguir esse famoso tutorial junto com todo mundo! o antigo eu fiz inteiro, amém!
i literally build aircraft for a living and teach new people to do the same. I am very much not computer programme minded so something like blender always seemed so terrifying. however still early but so far these tutorials are amazing. so thankyou.
just me watching this for my 29th donut attempt
When I press F9 key, that radius and dimension window doesn't appear. I don't know why...😰
It nay be because you made edits to it.
Watched your previous tutorial years ago. Glad to see this one (because hoping back into blender action) and getting so much more knowladge about more of the creation process. Thank you, sir.

@@ayeshajaved8243 in what system do you work on? I never heard of that problem though
i like how i havent even finished it yet and im already proud with what ive made
1:17 I DONT HAVE THE BOX
make a new torus
um actually its call a VERTEX
Thanks for this series! I increased the size of the interface icons since they were rather small to be closer to yours. Under Edit, Preferences, Interface set the Resolution Scale slider to 1.25 - much easier to see.
I had just started your previous playlist for the donut, but got stuck due to newer version, but you started the new series at just the right moment.
The Donut tutorial gave me a lot of confidence in 3D modeling as a vfx/technical artist in videogames, don't miss this out!
Thank you so much, you helped me to take confidence in my future carrer as a producer. I've created characters for my scripts and now I'm gonna give birth to them. You're the best teacher I never had. Hope you health and prosperity. Patrick
Thank you so much for these! I've done this tutorial two times already but I'm so happy to make a donut again.
I just started watching your Blender tutorials and I am already subscribed to your channel. I can't wait to continue learning from you on the next video for this series. Thank you for sharing your talents with us newbies with Blender! U R Z Best!!!🤩🤩😍
bruh.. i have blender downloaded for video game asset making and its always been so hard to grasp... these tutorials make me excited to learn something... keep up the amazing work
Iam proud to watch this again after a long journey in blender started with ur donut tutorial ❤
my new year resolution was to learn blender. This video series helps so much. Thank you!!!
Just started with 3d again after years of depressingly dropping from design and visuals... Been following Andrew since 10-15 years ago when I started back in the years before Evee, before the Principled Material (Yes I studied his class about Fresnel and Metalliness comprehension and to do deep nodes configuration to imitate it... just weeks appart from the next version of blender dropping Principled), before cycles, before denoising, before Poliigon, before the very first donuts tutorial...
The perfect time to start again! Please master! give us the whole series!
I changed the levels viewport value to 12 or 16 as soon as he explained that the subdivision surface modifier adds resolution. Me and my PC found out split seconds later that it is exponential. Enjoying the course.
I just were doing the course of beginner blender 3.0 using 4.0 and then I see that you just upload this new videos, you're amazing and really fast.
I'm just glad i love donuts... made me like these tutorials even more!
Just finished this part, thank you you're amazing can't wait for part 3!
A new version of Blender. Time to make more donuts. I actually waited to install 4.0 until this tutorial series came out. Cause I had a feeling some little changes would be made. Such as how the modifier menu would be setup compared to previous version and having this is giving me a lot of help in learning more about it and 3D along the way.
In addition really liking how you've edited this one compared to the last one. (Which was still great series I learned a lot from). You go really good a cutting out the 'dead air', but didn't go so far that it's hard to follow along too.
Thank you, it makes so much fun learning this with you. I can imagine my Tattoostyles will change a lot with this tool.
thank you so much for this tutorial, your videos are actually fun to watch and work along with
Man, I am so excited to finish this beginner project. And you Sir have a very clear and beginner friendly explanation of the fundamentals of Blender. I am definitely subscribing and will watch your other videos. Thank you so much.
This is how a tutorial should be. Today is my day one at blender! And this seemed like a cake walk all because of you! Kuddos to you, man! Thanks a ton. I'll subscribe
Man, I usually hate learning things from videos, because the speed is either too fast or too slow. I've never tried a tutorial as perfectly paced as this-I never had to fast-forward or skip, and I've barely had to pause either. Thanks for sharing your awesome teaching style!
In Portuguese, we still don't have anything like this playlist about Blender 4.0. I'm not fluent in English, but the way you speak makes it easy to understand a lot. Thanks for the videos!
Thanks so much for this free course and finding the good words to make me smile and keep my motivation at 200% ❤
This was so helpful :D I've been wanting to model on blender for years now, but didnt know where to start. Thank you so much!
as I'm nearing the end of this video, I feel like I'm just *barely* getting started... I've played around and made a few dinky models before (I made a nifty crow, but then I rigged it wrong and god punished it for my sins) but never really had actual fun with it. It always just felt like something I need to deal with if I wanna make graphics for the game I'm making. But in just the last video and this one, I'm learning about tools I wanted but couldn't find, and I'm seeing the tiniest incremental progress and it's making me giddy as a little kid again. Thank you for what you do, Blender Guru, you've made me feel something new and amazing I never thought I'd feel about 3D, and I can't help but feel like I'll finally be able to express myself before long.

@@ayeshajaved8243 sorry the reply took so long, and also sorry that I don't really have an answer... I've never dived deep enough into Blender that I encounter bugs like that. Maybe make sure you're on the right tab? I'm really not sure at all.
ITS OKAY. THANKS MAN@@HerrDoktorWeberMD
Many thanks Andrew. Perhaps my third work through of the Donut tutorials on various versions. It is just great that you do these for new Blender versions.
It's so much nicer when you know what to expect. That first time is always tough and then it gets easier
Super helpful tutorial, coming to Blender from Fusion360 and the world of 3D CAD.
I think the biggest hurdle for me so far, is that a lot of Blender is just "feel".
Like you said, if everything is perfectly constrained by set values, then you lose realism.
Honestly a very exciting feeling, liberating even, like I'm making art!
man u made my modeling experience alot more funny and easier, i sat there for 5 minutes making my donut twerk with the proportional editing.
