Well done Zach! This looks fantastic
Thanks a lot, Jared! :)
@@cgboost please how do I make the cw shader please, I don't have money to pay for the course, I just need the shader or a tutorial please
@@ricciillmatic5352 Here you go: we.tl/t-QQxxAvqxXZ (When using it on an object, you have to go to Edit Mode, select all faces, press U > Reset, to reset the UV map)
can u share cw shader too..
The artistic quality of the entire scene is absolutely mind-blowing! Everything from layouting to compositing has been perfected to the last detail, resulting in a yummy feast for the eyes.
Tks Zach. Your simplistic and powerful solutions are fascinating.
The thing i like the most is the concept, this sort of iron golem stuck in the terrain look perfect, actually all the scene look so cool in the low poly art.
Great job!
The pop-up workflow is super cool and easy! Thanks for sharing, Zach!
thanks for all of your videos zach ,you are the best blender teacher out there
The rendering is very beautiful !!
Well done! This looks great!
That object scatter is great!! thank you; and the art looks great
So good man! Loved every second of this breakdown! :)
Awesome stuff, keep it coming please!
Awesome! Thank you for this Breakdown 💪
Great course! Really good video.
Zach, dude you are the star. Others are fantastic, but you are a gem.
Marvelous and outstanding!
Thanks for showing and happy blending with blender.
Really cool scene!
Yeah looks really good. well done!
Excelente Video Zacharias.
So insightful!
14:20 what an absolute sick scene. Kudos on the art direction!
Zach your tutorials & this low poly campfire animation breakdown is awesome :)
Thanks a lot! :)
Subbed after this breakdown
loved the overview nd i will give it a try
the animation was only what i needed and i couldnt afford the course so thank u soo much for the breakdown
Me too
Beautiful
One video. So much info!
Pretty cool!
Man this thing is blowing my mind
This is mind-blowing, so inspiring 🌟
Glad you liked it :)
~Daniel
great video !!!
great job>3!
Awesome!!!!
best sense of *style* ... I hope you are proud of yourself, because I am!
Your sense of film is great 👍
Thanks!
I Love it! I will get it for sure
Thank you!
Well done..... 😁👍👍
Amazing
Thx dude i don't have money to buy the course but this vid help me ❤❤❤
Waooo..Just Amazing
Great Breakdown! Might buy it for future projects. How do i reverse the animation of the pop up? and how did you made the ground pop up?
It's taking me forever to get through the course- I need to get my priorities right XD
More these VIDS!
Wow! I would love to see a tutorial on how to make that scene but very high poly and realistic! Like a fallen titan or something.
So coool....would be interested to Enroll on it.
You can follow the link in description :)
Yes, already saw the course, very exciting and looking forward to join pretty soon. 😍
很棒的效果
Zach Ma Boi !
Awesome, thanks zack, a tutorial please
Check the CG Boost website. There is the whole course ;-)
~Egon
would love to support but i cant afford the course,so here's a sub...really cool
We do have student discount if that applies to you. Simply contact us here: cgboost.com/support/
Thank you! What influenced your decision to use a cube with a principled volume shader and not a mist pass?
A mist pass is all over your scene, and you can only push it into the distance. When using a cube with a volume shader on it, you can also move it up and down, and add texture details to the volume. So in short, you have more control over it. 🙂
Considering a purchase, but I was wondering if you could tell me if the magic material you use for everything is able to be recreated in UE4 so that things look the same if they were exported into the engine from Blender.
The shader is quite simple, so I guess it can be recreated in UE (I never used UE before, so I can't tell for sure).
Make more videos like this
Will think about it, thanks.
Very nice video
Can I do this on a previous version of blender like 2.7 or 2.5 because I run a low spec PC
Hi, thanks for the comment. It will be hard since 2.7 is pretty different from the new versions, so it will be very hard to follow what's going on the screen. Also, I'm not even sure that the add-ons Zach uses there run on the older version. You can give it a try anyway, but it won't be easy.
~ Masha
@@cgboost Ok thanks. I will try, if it doesn't work, I will have to get a better PC
I am sorry for the question. Is this Pop-up animation cube sold as part of the course or is it free to download?
The whole how to process is part of the course.
~Egon
I want to quit working to finish your course lol
Thank you for the amazing course!
😁
Will there be any discount on this course?
Hi, thanks for your comment. We have some discounts time to time. In this period, we don't have anything programmed yet, so unfortunately there won't be discounts specifically for this course for a while.
Anyway, we have a regular discount for students. For more info about it, you can contact us at support@cgboost.com.

How do you make that edge gradient shader on eevee ? I know you can do something like that in cycles with the pointiness in the geometry node but no idea how it can be done in eevee.
I'm using a very simple trick here, which only works, since we are working with cubes here. It is actually a spherical gradient UV projected onto each face of the model. For a better edge gradient effect in EEVEE, check this video here: ruclips.net/video/2stkQE0buqA/видео.html
@@cgboost thank you answering ! I'll check that right away !
So that's where default cubes come from. The fire
I like your shader, It is on sale?
Hi, unfortunately, we don't sell our shaders and assets separately. But you can have them all together, with the course: academy.cgboost.com/p/cubic-worlds
~Masha
how to make the particle effect in the fire so smooth and slow?
You can learn it inside our Cubic Worlds course: bit.ly/cubic-worlds-4
~ Masha
hey sir, can you take a quick awnser on how to make this "roll up"/"build up" animation at the beginning / end ? cant believe this is made in one scene ? thanks , i need to understad the technique and what addon you used to make the objects dissapear like squeezing together befor vanishing...thanks sir
12:19 ok nice, cool. but the ground looks littlebit different with the particles in front, could you help on this ? thank you sir
@@blackswan6386 The particles are done with a particle emission system emiting cubes from a single face of the ground object. It is all explained in detail in the Cubic Worlds course (a bit too much to explain in a YT comment :) it is not super complicated though once you get the basics of particles in blender.
@@cgboost i iwll take a look on your " cubic world course" thanks sir, priciate that, ciao
how can we have access to the shader? I really like the gradient..
Hi, thanks for the comment. The shader is included into the Cubic Worlds course as well as most project files.
~ Masha
I tried recreating the shader in 3.0 and the edge gradient texture doesnt want apply itself onto every face. Just the top so i only get the gradient sphere on the top. I unwrapped it and put all the faces on top of eachother which did the trick but I dont wanna have to do that for every object cuz thats just too much work ahha. Anyone know of a solution? BTW when I moved the gradient texture using the mapping node i tried to make make it so that its in the middle and evenly spread through the model but that didnt work.
Indeed you have to unwrap it for every object, but it is actually super simple. Just select all the objects you want to unwrap, go to Edit Mode, select all faces and press U > Reset. Then it will put all the faces perfectly square on top of each other.
Can I use blender 2.83 for this course?
Basically yes, the only thing that is not available is the Asset Browser. However, in the course I also show how you can work without it.
How can I do this animation in the unreal engine? Any help will be really appreciated:)
Hi Tanzim, sorry for not being able to help you, but since we don't use UE we don't know either. Hope you will find someone that can help you.
~ Masha
This CW shader is amazing, where can I get it please I need something like that
The material is created and explained in the course itself. Plus you have the source files.
~Egon
@@cgboost Is there a way I can get it without joining the course, please I would join the course if I could.
You can download it here: we.tl/t-vutQF6vxb4 (In order to use it, you have to select the object, go to edit mode, select all faces and press "U > Reset".)
@@cgboost Thank you so much! I really appreciate it, Iv learned a-lot from your tutorials thanks
@@cgboost ❤️❤️❤️
What is the version of blender you had made this
Cubic worlds course was created with version 3.0 alpha as asset browser was introduced there. Thou it can be followed with older versions too.
Anyway, as 3.0 is out, we recommend to go with it.
~Egon
is there a way where i can find this pop up cube ?
Hi, if you have purchased the cubic worlds course, you can find it in the asset library provided by Zach.
Here is the link to the course: www.cgboost.com/courses/cubic-worlds
~ Masha
plz make video on cw shader
Hi, thanks for the suggestion, we will take it into account.
~ Masha
how can i get your CW shader
Well, it is of course provided with the course.
i'm buying your fucking course
Love that enthusiasm! Haha
~ Daniel
so how do we get that sweeet shading
Had the same question!!
he goes over how to make the shader in the course. Its actually near the very begging. In my opinion you can't go wrong with the course. You are modeling with primitives (cubes) but the concepts are a bit advanced, its really a unique way of teaching as the modeling doesn't get hectic, allowing you to focus on the concepts and techniques. Everything I have learned in it so far can be applied to low and high poly modeling as well. I will be getting into the animation part this weekend. :)
I sort of replicated it here: www.blenderkit.com/asset-gallery-detail/770f7d0a-5b68-4806-9fea-b796949c0e46/
Hope that helps!
Is rendering lowpoly animation faster?
The question is: Compared to what? In general, I would say yes. The great benefit we have here is that the scenes look pretty decent in eevee already, so you can render them out in eevee. Also, we are using no complicated shaders here, nor any glossy or reflective surfaces, nor any textures. So it is rendering faster than usual 3D scenes, with a lot of polys, textures, shaders etc.
@@cgboost thanks a lot.
I asked you this as I want to make a car chase animation. I used some models(realistic ones) and when I started to render, the time for rendering each frame was 10mins. I was disappointed as I really wanted to make it so I am starting all again, but this time I will use lowpoly models (trying to imitate what we see on cartoons)and is hoping the render time is atmost 30sec per frame.
Yeah, if you try to make it look good in eevee, then you can render it quite fast.
object & collection this is addon ?
No, this is available from version 2.8+ of Blender.
@@cgboost how to activate ?
Hi, I would like to buy this course but I need information. I am switching from 4d cinema to blender and am used to fast render times (with redshift). With this course, can you learn the basics of cycles X (I think it's the fastest in Blender)? I have a notebook with rtx 2070, i7, 16 ram. Information about rendering times for your course?
i need that shader color plsss
It is created and described in the course ;-)
~Egon
You can also find it attached to this video here. The characters provided are using the shader: ruclips.net/video/MFbQZSpSG_Y/видео.html
I'd invest, but there are no details as to what's contained in part 1. Really want to learn how to do a node set up and custom sliders like that.
Hi, have you checked the product page? There are videos explaining what you will learn in each chapter (you have to scroll down a bit, and further down the page, you can find the full list of all videos included in the course): academy.cgboost.com/p/cubic-worlds
And yes, I explain in detail how the node setup was created in the course. :)
@@cgboost Thank you for the speedy reply and for the help too. I will eat my own words now; can't believe I just didn't scroll far enough lol.
Shading Tutorials?
It is part of our courses.
~Egon
LIKE 4KX100000
those system specs , if i just have a GPU i would do wonders in blender . getting a gpu is hard and the one i already owned got fried . sedlyf
You can do wonders with CPU too ;-)

Whooot? No default Cube?! :)
Well, it was a default cube before. :P

Great work!
@@cgboost Thanks you for your compliment… I was wondering if you could improve it further? Long time you didn't review any art work of others on your channel…
@@rokon1991 Funny that you said this yesterday, since yesterday we announced our first livestream where we review submissions from our last challenge: ruclips.net/video/xN8DFlL2Xr0/видео.html (it is planned for tomorrow)
12:50 how to create cube animation pls
Hi, you just add a keyframe on the scale value and set it to 0 and then go forward on the timeline and add another one and set the scale to 1. For the bouncing effect you can add another keyframe before the final one set to a bigger scale like 1.5.
~ Masha
@@cgboost tks very much !
@@huychautinh6796 You're welcome :)
@@cgboost please help me why when copying animation from cube my objects are deformed and bigger
@@huychautinh6796 Hi, hard to say what's wrong without seeing the file. Can you post it inside our community please? community.cgboost.com/home

Hi I want this course please active Family trip 20 coupon pls pls
We have a student discount. Just contact us here, and we can see what we can do: www.cgboost.com/contact
Why can we just just model and very very rough model instead of using various cubes to model a single object?
You can of course model it in any way you like, however, for the course I wanted to have certain constraints to work in, to make the whole progress easier and more streamlined. Just like working with lego bricks, where you can only work with the bricks you have. Limiting ourselfs in certain ways, can help us to be more creative.

Aw man. Please stop doing sound in 3D and videos programs. It shows
It is the easiest way how to do it all in one software package. IMHO not a bad option for many freelancers. For most cases, it is more than sufficient.
