A little advice;
I am a professional 3D character artist, the first tablet I bought was a very small tablet (Wacom Intuos Small). It has been a very sufficient tablet for me to improve myself. After I started making money over time, I bought myself a drawing monitor(Huion Kamvas), but it hurts my back so much that I still use that little tablet(just zooming in a little more is enough :)).
Someone who has just started this profession / hobby (even professionally like me) does not need expensive toys. All you need to have is the courage to compete with yourself and to be disciplined.
Over time, you will be able to expand your collection and have much more equipment, but none of them will bring you the success that will make you happy. Just work hard and don't delay your goals. It almost doesn't matter what kind of tablet you use. Even for your most detailed work, a small tablet will do the trick. As long as you want to do this job, you will definitely find a way.
Same story for me, as a pro 3D artist (but on the environments side). I can’t agree more with your advice.
Tablets are just tools, we only need the one that suit our goals and confortable every day of works. Whatever the size, tech or brand.
If I may complete about the drawing monitors :
They are too often presented as « the best tool of our dreams », like it’s normal to have one of them some day. Like the final achievement of the perfect pro setup. But its just a tool…. and it won’t do the job better for us. WE do the job as an artist.
I really like you mention being hurt with these devices, not too much people are talking enough about this. I guess we have to test a drawing monitor for weeks to realize and feel how it impact the posture and gesture. And how our working space could be a mess in order to accomodate the device. Even with a standing arm.
What I learned from my dream to get a wacom cintiq and sell it after a month - being hurt too : drawing monitor are suitable and confortable for drawing, because it’s like the natural gesture of drawing on papers or working on a tilt-desk. But in 3D, most of the gesture is concentrate in the center of the screen, meaning a lot of small micro-movements. Or often swinging the arms from corner to corner, to reach the small UI buttons (we love UI and lenu in 3D software ahah). Of course we are all different and some would be fine using a drawing monitor for 3D job without issues, but just to mention it’s far from perfect. Just a tool depending of our needs.
Still love my good old intuos 3 wide :)
@@migueleng7634 I absolutely agree with everything you said. It's really sad that it turned into a very expensive 60hz second monitor after you lost your whim for using the monitor. I am a person who works close to 10 hours a day, even though it has a monitor arm, it causes excruciating pain. Especially if you don't have a monitor arm, using a keyboard turns into a real torture. If there is no chance to take a break of 10-20 minutes at the beginning of every hour, I do not recommend it to anyone.
In my opinion, it makes much more sense to put aside the money spent on buying a monitor and spend it on improving your computer.
I have a xp pen medium sized tablet i am in school for programming but i want to do art as serious hobby 3d and 2d. I am not that good at art right now but i want to be. Do you have any advice?
@@danieleccleston7928 Never delete the files of the first models you made. You will lose a lot of motivation and your savior will be to look back and see how much you have improved.
Don't compare yourself to people who have done this job for years more than you. It always disappoints you...
What I said above are things that will come in handy in the future. If you are very new, I think you can find multi-material concept designs and try to model them.
What I mean by multi-material is: For example, a metal sword wrapped in fabric or an I-pad with a leather sheath. Having more than one material in the model you choose will play a huge role in the development of your skill. Having leather, metal, glass or fabric in the same model will greatly improve your perspective. You can make sure that there are at least 3 different ones.
This may sound silly, but I highly recommend it;
Try not to model by following a fixed tutorial video. For example, do you need to model a belt when making a character? Watch a few different tutorials on leather belt modeling. You will get different tips from each of them, this will speed up your work a lot.
If you are going to sculpt; After learning the program you want to use, you can watch all the other programs, almost all of them are the same. For example, if you decide to use Blender, watching Zbrush courses will add a lot to you. Be careful not to make yourself a fan of a program. All of them have the same brushes, nearly only the difference between them is UI. Not make the UI a obstacle for you. So don't miss the opportunity to learn a lot because of this.
Being good at one thing is much better than being average at many things. I recommend that you choose your focus within a maximum of 5-6 months. You may have to decide whether to design the character or the environment.
@@Rallba alright thank you for the wonderful advice i will keep it all in mind. Im probably going to learn more ob the generalist side but i think i would lean more towards 3d.
A picture's quality is determined by the hand that draws it not the quality of the pen. That being said though, quality tools are very nice to have.
Hmm not really true, better pens have better technology and features than a pen like this for example and those features make it easier, faster,more accurate and overall greater quality
I just bought Veikk A50 and I paid only $16.99 (Walmart) and it has a huge drawing area (10x6") and so far it works flawlessly with Blender. I can't believe we pay so little for this amazing tech. I love your channel Yan and just learning the ropes! Today is my first 'session' using tablet and a pen!
Hell of a deal, same tablet is $50+ online even at walmart.
I love this format, it shows how you manage your workflow and the tips you give can be useful aswell
Thanks for the input
I love this format! It's what I've wanted from you!
After that video i bought HUION inspiron h640p and im startimg today thanks for inspiration man!
It's nice to see a format like this sometimes, so I like it.
And yes, I'm looking forward to your VR sculpting, I watched "your first try" with this and it was interesting.
😁 Thanks
This format is marvelous, keep up the good work
Thank you!
Amazing job honestly
Love this new format of video 👍 keep em coming
Thanks!
I only use Huion tablets. They've always worked super well for me. Love em.
Thank You Yan❤🔥
Welcome!
Watching these videos always makes me want to sculpt as well, might actually sculpt Hellboy from the comics, always wanted to Sculpt him ^^
I have a very cheap Huion tablet too - thankfully mine is slightly larger though ahah. Deffo drew me in to your video again with that title ^^ Gonna watch this in bed rn :)
I would recommend keeping camera somewhere in the corner and smaller, Im not saying you have an ugly mug but 1/4 of the screen real-estate just for face-cam is a bit much if you ask me :D
Video is a massive help for me as a beginner in the blender, I learned so much just from watching you sculpt! Subscribe for sure and Im going to look at your other videos. :)
Thanks for the input :). I made that choice because I try to give the impression of being there as much as I can (hence recoreding tablet, or sound of strokes on my latest video). The bigger image is for that too. It doesn't cover any important part of the tablet as well.
I find it to be a bit more immersive in a way, maybe I am wrong dono.
That said, it doesn't mean you are wrong, it just means I would like more opinions on this. I learned that when I try something new, there will always be people liking and hating, so no harm in experimenting and getting feedback ;).
I've been rocking the wacom one tablet I got for 50 bucks, it's great for my mobile laptop station, feels great and works well enough! I make up for it with a 120hz screen (1000% recommend high refresh rate)
Sweet Hulk sculpt
😅😅😅i used a mouse for the first year and a half when i started sculpting in blender. like i literally couldn't afford a cheap tablet also, getting the shipment to where am at wouldn't have been worth the hassle, but thank you cause it was your naruto timelapse that inspired me to keep practicing. keep up the content, 3 years later am still here getting inspired.
🥰
Proof that: it is not the tool, it's the talent. 😉
really cool work
Thanks!
On sale now for $19.99 Great video for people on a budget. Subscribed!
As someone who has the smallest possible tablet (about that size) because it's easier to use than bigger ones because of my disability, you absolutely can use a small tablet! And my biggest advice for it - zoom is your friend! Although it's not good for making a tutorial or speed sculpts (I tried speeding up some of my work it gets very dizzying XD)
thanks for sharing:)
my pleasure!
This definitely works
Wonderful gren hulk indeed.
before i when i was starting. i was using wacom intous small now Im using Huion kamvas pro 16 2.5k res its just perfect!
My good old Intuos 3 is really small too. I am professionaly making all sorts of work on it - never felt need to go up with scale. But hey, there are always people who think you need 27 inch Cintiq Pro to make something :D First and foremost you need skill.
razer viper ultimate with custom mouseskates, a man of culture I see
A proof of that it's the craftsmanship that matters, not the expensive tools.
This!
still working on wacom bamboo. though i'm a beginner sculptor.
p.s. hulk's render looks great. would like to see the light setup.
I've used a wacom medium for years. The workapace is customized down to half the area. My hand stays fairly stationary and moves around slightly much like yours in the video.
I don't need all that area.This tablet would be perfectly acceptable to me.
I made my first 3d sculpt using a udraw for the Wii, I think I got a pretty decent result (at least I hope so 😅) it was way cheaper haha
i have basic drawing tablet and the problem to me so far using it was that it fill very difrrent from mouse in term of where you move your hand to get to spesific place on the screen and i need to put effort in practicing this which i didnt do yet
Wow)) thx, I'm thinking to ask this question "can i use my mouse or need....." , and as we can see, if you don't hurry enough you can save some one (YanSculpts in this case) nerves
For half of the vid Hulk looks like Obunga
I love it
Haha!
Funny enough, I own this tablet. It's more for games like OSU!, a rhythm game. Some prefer the smaller tablet size because it's easier to play the various 'maps' in the game
As long as he is green he is hulk.... Maybe is muscled gamora... 😂
you should try a $30 aliexpress graphics tablet they are way better than that avarage size tablet
How to adjust proportional editing size while using a pen tablet?
At least, a video who is not going at 200 km/h... I was leaving your channel because always : your videos were too fast... So, they were almost unwatchable for me. This kind of format is perfect. I can now follow along with you, and I can see and understand all what you are doing almost in real time...
And what about the retopology of these characters which you are making??
Would I do it manually using shrink wrap modifier or with any oter technique??
Tell me the solution for retopology.
The end result looks a little like a slightly ticked off Andrew Price cosplaying as Hulk. 😀
VR sculpting videos would be great! Which VR sculpting program would you use?
I’m gonna try 3d modeler !
@@yansculpts I haven't heard of that one. Is it newer?
I use a APP called SUPERDISPLAY From my samsung tab i should say the experience was very good and it is definitely bigger than what you have
AND i could also see it so if you have a tablet and s pen you are good to go
you guys should take a look at the VEIKK line of tablets. The highest end one is $500.
Any good?
@@yansculpts I use the lower end priced at around $70CAD after my intuous died. I was impressed. I'm getting the highest end next.
I havent used a pen in 4 years and ive been using mnk for the past 7 years to do work and play games. I just started working in blender and I actually really like the mouse but would you still say a pen is better?
how to go from one mesh to another without going through the layers. Is there a shortcut for mesh switching? thanks
Alt q
Haven't seen any of your videos tractor retopology
I don’t have a recent one nope
Yan you are very charming to watch!
Thanks :)!
Yan I only do 2D art getting into 3D little by little, could you 3D print this? or would you have to go about the process in a different way?
You probably can
Hulk is eye is the weirder part small tablet so smalll😂
Which school you learn sculpting - ESMA Vancouver films Goblin
If only my computer could handle the blender sculpt mod.
I don't think it requires the best, how old is yours? What are the specs?
If they want to sculpt with a mouse, let them sculpt with a mouse. I'd say this is a great showcase of how you can upgrade for cheap to step up your game. When someone doesn't feel like the mouse is holding them back, there's no point of showing a tablet to their face. Also second-market can give you a bigger tablet for $30 that can last for years!
How did mesh resolution increase without u doing nothing.
I WILL SCULPT WITH A MOUSE AND I WILL PERFECT IT lmaooo
Do you have a video on settings for tablet button shortcuts you recommend?
I don't sorry, I don't use tablet buttons.
@@yansculpts thank you for the response
anytime!
So i have a question, can I sculpt with a mouse?
Don't let me send Hulk
Best Advise Love You From Pakistan,
can you sculpt with a trackball? :D
Don't. Just don't
Quick tip, if u using years mouse than stay on mouse.I m more comfortable with mouse.The pen for me is not natural, slow.I m just too much used to mouse.The only one thing witch is better than mouse for me is my wacom sintique but its a display tablet.And drawing on a real display its perfect, top.But those cheap pad tablet i not recomend for people they are used to mouse. Its just so bad.I m much faster with a mouse, better results, movin inside blender feels with mouse so much faster even withou knowing shortcuts.Definitely answer : stay on mouse if you are used to mouse.Only one improovment its a real display tablet, because thats like real drawing on paper, here by tablets its so unnatural watch the monitor but draw somewhere else.Those tablets are so bad for me that i m just like starting to learn sculpting.With real display monitor tablets on other hand i have no proble.I using mouse for sculpting and the monitor tablet for adding details an painting.
thanks for sharing, the tablet's advantages are not limited to that. It is always a challenge to change something you are used to, and for some it won't be worth it for them, doesn't mean one should try. I do respect your opinion though, best of luck!
I painted on my character AFTER SCULPT but when i switches to material PREVIEW it's just showing white material Why it's happening?
you need to add a color attribute in the nodes
@@yansculpts thanks 😊 it's very helpful
Wich is the hot key to change sculp object???
I said it in the video 😥! Alt Q
@@yansculpts hooo I miss it,, i was dishwashing lol..
Its not the size that matters "Thats what she said" ;)
What software ?
Blender
Does pressure points really matter like wacom ctl medium has 2048 pressure points and right now i am using xp pen decon01 v2 and it has 8096 so does it really matters ?
Hi does the pen pressure work for you in blender? I have the same tablet but the pressure does not work for me in blender (fine in any other software)
@@TheBindoS I dont use blender and nor I use XP pen tablet its not good after some time it gets worst, I am currently using Huion Hs610
I have this exact tablet, it kills my wrists
I can see how long hours can cause discomfort, which is why i recommended breaks in the video
..... This cheap tablet is 4 times more sensitive than the old one I been using O_o"
680S only has 2048 levels of pen pressure. Whereas is thing has 8192. I guess it's due time to upgrade.
I was surprised too that it had 8k sens
Is Xp pen brand a good tablet to buy ??
Huion better
Xp has nicer screens, Huion has better driver support for windows, in my experience.
@@yansculpts ok. so both are good in their own ways. any suggestion from your end for one which is good and fits the budget??
Either should work tbh, and prices are similar. If you have amazon try getting through there, there is a good return policy if it doesn't work for you (check the policy, depends if it is sold/shipped by amazon or a third party) Huoin is what I currently use and no issues here.
@@yansculpts ok thanks
I was feeling if any of them might not even be worth using. I felt it’s that bad
Anyways you cleared my query
Thanks again
Can we gain money Form Blender 3d models
Yes.
sure
hulk not angry, is bruce banner
I like this kind of video where you explain along while sculpting, but your facecam is taking too much space imo it can just be in the corner.👍
also the video is very long, I like about 20 mins.
Thanks for the input Doob :).
For the length of the video, I did hesitate, I am actually more on your corner in this one.
As for the face cam, I made that choice because I try to give the impression of being there as much as I can (hence recording tablet, or sound of strokes on my latest video). The bigger image is for that too. It doesn't cover any important part of the tablet as well.
I find it to be a bit more immersive in a way, maybe I am wrong dono.
That said, it doesn't mean you are wrong, it just means I would like more opinions on this. I learned that when I try something new, there will always be people liking and hating, so no harm in experimenting and getting feedback ;).
@@yansculpts All good man😼👍
You recommended a huion kamvas tablet 2 years ago, it sits and gathers dust huion kamvas will not help to connect to blender. I guess I am just too stupid . According to the instructions its a snap but no go igave up!😢
How come? Download the latest driver, open it, and make sure your tablet responses. Blender has nothing to do with it normally
