Booleans work best after applying the subsurf modifier. For some reason, they don't get along well with it while it's active in the modifiers group. You have to commit to the subsurf first. What I like to do is join all of the objects i'm going to be cutting out of a model with booleans, then do just one big boolean afterwards. Also, sometimes there's a glitch in Blender where you'll put difference and it joins the models instead. So if you select the opposite union, it will work property. I have absolutely no idea why it does this, but it happens to me all of the time. :) I didn't know about the alt click to apply to multiple models. Handy little trick. I'm always learning something new in Blender.
I followed along the tutorial. It took me nearly 8 hours to finish this lesson!...=)) Very exciting and very informative! Thank you very much!!!) What I found: in my case the boolean just doesn't want to work this the arrays.. It took me a considerable amount of time to figure that out.. I just kept on trying and trying..) With single cylinders it works pretty nice. So I made only a couple of holes. That'll be my first 3d model =)
The amount of time it takes to make this stuff makes you appreciate the people who make the packs of phone models and sell them online. It also makes me understand why some of them are so expensive.
whenever I try to add a background image as a reference it won't show up, no matter what image i add.....i have check background image and also done NUM5
Great tutorials I will check your patreon site. Would you create a tutorial about getting and loading the add ins in Blender version 2.79 that you are currently using?
Steve, at around 11:37 my Solidify modifier isn't filling in the section between my original shape and the part that the solidify modifier added. I have fill rim checked. Thanks in advance.
The best way to prevent blender slowing down when scaling the objects associated with the boolean modifier is to click the little X next to the object name (in the case of this video, Cylinder and cylinder.001) on the modifier, then adjust the cylinders, then re-select the objects on the modifier. Hope this helps :)
I have a problem with the boolean modifier, the sceond and third boolean modifier i add to cut out the earspeaker and the dock, cut the complete rim. there only the back and the screen left. Could somebody help me please?
hello i have a problem when i follow the instruction and that i want import the image in the scene, nothing happen, the image don't displaying. i really need a solution urgently please. Ps: i use blender 2.78c
I surely wont ever get along with apple , but cool tutorial , Ive learned some new tricks and I will soon make my own "special" IPhone ;P , looking forward for part 2!
you have to set the images properly then after you rotate, enter in edit mode and move the plane then so the center of it stays there when applying mirror modifier to work as intended.
try adding a few more vertices around the boolean objects, also try tweaking the size and position of the boolean objects. And like I said in the tutorial fewer objects per boolean modifier works better. :)
after watching its modeling,the very first question that blow up in my mind is that how i gonna make this ?? but seriously very realistic and glad for getting it
No i could not. Gave up on this one. Might be a problem with our different versions of Blender. IE - A lot of tutorials show drag'n'drop, but on my Version i can't. I'm on Blender 2.78
Thanks friend. I will try that. Trying to do simple objects with minimal faces till i can do cool things like my own ideas.... that are cool... sometimes.
+Θεατρο Σκιων Αλεξιου Yeah, I tried it, but the project is currently on hold right now. The modelling is difficult. :P I tried hard getting the shiny effect right though.
why all your video for Beginner?! i'm not Beginner and i still learn something out of it . hope in the future delete the word " Beginner " just Tutorial.
I'm sure you've answered thus before, but are you using a tablet to do this? If so, what are you exactly? If it's not problem, can you tell me what computer you're using? If anyone else has any input on what they use, feel free to comment. Any help is accepted. Thanks (:
+Daniel Metzger I have it and I use it a little but, but I really cannot adjust to the user interface. It seriously confuses me + I've already spent 600 on octane (Education version of cinema)
When adding the solidify modifier Blender completely fucks up the model. This is how it looks: drive.google.com/open?id=0B2UYVPHE7ryGdHBZM1FHbUpPTWc drive.google.com/open?id=0B2UYVPHE7ryGakU4QXV2VFNNLTg Here I increased thickness to maximize the stupid effect: drive.google.com/open?id=0B2UYVPHE7ryGN013bWpMd3VsRVE It does something completely different to the mirrored element than it's supposed to. Can anyone help?
When I use the mirror modifier to complete the rectangle and check the box for x and z, the other half of the rectangle appears on the other side of the first half rather than connecting to it in the middle like it should. This is a problem I've been having with the mirror tool for as long as I've been using Blender, and while I have solutions to get around it to get the same quality of work without using the mirror modifier, it makes things a whole lot more complicated than they would be if I could get this annoying problem solved. If anyone knows how to fix it, please let me know :). I have a feeling that the solution to my problem is going to be stupidly obvious, but here's a picture of exactly what's going on. drive.google.com/file/d/0B57beWNdAM1xV3hqN3daM0hNcTg/view?usp=sharing
Geez, to me this was horrible. 5 minutes in and I noticed you were hardly explaining what you were doing. At least you should tell us what keys to press and stuff like that. I know that it is at the bottom but I was still having trouble following you.
This is the worst tutorial I've ever tried to follow granted I'm using 2.8 and trying to make an iphone 8 but just making the rounded rectangle is not going well. I feel like you're skipping details and bits and going so fast that I've given up after 10 minutes

Damn...Never thought creating a rectangle would be so complicated

Possible tip for people at around 35:00
Don't delete edge loops if it isn't an edge LOOP, maybe try dissolve edges
Really love your intro video
please make a tut about it
35:23 You could delete as 'dissolve edges'. That worked fine for me!
Nice tutorial, man. What program you use for showing shortcuts?
Easy After Effects Its not a program, its just a tab.
You are doing a good job man,well done.
you use pg up or pg dn if your on laptop to change amount of segments during a bevel
whenever I try to add a background image as a reference it won't show up, no matter what image i add.....i have check background image and also done NUM5
Haha loved the intro... and well, the whole video.
0:14 How long did it take that render???? (animation)
Wonderful,great some nice tips annd nice picture.
great tutorial!
i can't find the link to the reference background image in the description.
Great tutorials I will check your patreon site. Would you create a tutorial about getting and loading the add ins in Blender version 2.79 that you are currently using?
Is the giveaway sti going onn? 😓
Steve, at around 11:37 my Solidify modifier isn't filling in the section between my original shape and the part that the solidify modifier added. I have fill rim checked. Thanks in advance.
For the side buttons, why didn't you use knife project?
Thanks for the awesome tutorial can''t wait for part two.
i appreciate you having complications because I know, when I start modeling this, I will have them too. On to Part 2!
How did you create the animation of the iPhone?
why you dont use support loops to help keep the amount of subdivisions in place, I think its more effective than edge crease
It can get very messy though, and if you want to make any minor adjustments later, moving multiple vertices becomes quite difficult.
+CG Geek Can't wait for part 2
how can you see what the mirror modifier has added in edit mode front orthographic view?
Btw I really appreciate your videos, you help me alot xD
when lining up the image the reference image you provided is off from yours so is it ok for when lining it up the mesurements would be off from yours?
The best way to prevent blender slowing down when scaling the objects associated with the boolean modifier is to click the little X next to the object name (in the case of this video, Cylinder and cylinder.001) on the modifier, then adjust the cylinders, then re-select the objects on the modifier. Hope this helps :)
Hehe, you should dissolve edges on a flat surface to delete them instead of getting weird geometry by deleting edge loops. Hope that helps.
can you upload the grey iphone image thanks
I loved it.
What about a remake?😄😅
If someone have artifacts after using booleans, turn Normals > auto smooth ON in DATA
8:50 For some reason I can't even round the corners. It just adds more 'points' along the edge but it doesn't round anything.
Found a fix, I had to remove the doubled vertices.
Stuck in using the mirror modifier. It doesn't go round and when I tick the Z axis it faces the other way. Please help
thank you man, enjoyed the tutorial and learnt a lot especialy alt + click
Are there article versions of these tutorials? don't get me wrong, these videos are great, but are too long. Are there any articles on these tuts?
I can not view the need textures only the iPhone picture which is needed.
Why dont you make crease by Shift+E?
can u follow this with 2.8?
why dont we just the bool tool addon ? :)
0:14 Music?
how do you get into the ortho view?
Press 5, this tutorial is not for you,learn the basics first then practice, and come back here to make this iphone! :D
I like your taste in music tho!
Joker thanks :)
when I apply the boolean modifier for the speakers, they don't change and the modifier doesn't do anything
I have a problem with the boolean modifier, the sceond and third boolean modifier i add to cut out the earspeaker and the dock, cut the complete rim. there only the back and the screen left. Could somebody help me please?
hello i have a problem when i follow the instruction and that i want import the image in the scene, nothing happen, the image don't displaying. i really need a solution urgently please. Ps: i use blender 2.78c
when i add the subsurf modifier the sides meeting at the y middle become spikes meeting at the tip and i havent been able to fix
i figured it out have to increase the merge limit a bunch to 0.020300
how do i rotate
I surely wont ever get along with apple , but cool tutorial , Ive learned some new tricks and I will soon make my own "special" IPhone ;P , looking forward for part 2!
Nice work, ehmm i will like you to do a tutorial on intro logo pls.
Keyframe the model spinning and render the animation out.
can anyone tell me how to flip with snap option ??
When i add the mirror modifier the bottom doesn't line up to the image and i cant change it pls help
you have to set the images properly then after you rotate, enter in edit mode and move the plane then so the center of it stays there when applying mirror modifier to work as intended.
which iPhone model u are making..? 😁
It's the 5s
oh! thanks..
+Daniel Metzger or the SE
whenever I try to add a background image as a reference it won't show up, no matter what image i add
did you check the box that says Background Images
did you check the box that says Background Images
And you need to be in orthographic camera view (numpad 5)
The bevel tool isn't working for me, it's making a weird triangle.
You mean bevel on a screen surface, I have same trouble, but when change Mean Crease for 0 in line in screen bevel, then it work fine
Subscribed!
there is no link to the iphone picture
Thanks for the heads up! Fixed.
any help with boolean? doesn't work for me, difference or union doesn't work i tried eveything.
try adding a few more vertices around the boolean objects, also try tweaking the size and position of the boolean objects. And like I said in the tutorial fewer objects per boolean modifier works better. :)
+CG Geek thank you! But I think I know why it wasn't working before, I wasn't hiding the cylinders, after I did that it work fine.
after watching its modeling,the very first question that blow up in my mind is that how i gonna make this ?? but seriously very realistic and glad for getting it
how to flip ?plz reply
0:00-17:26 Part 1: Basic Model
18:39 What is that ghastly screaming?
Probably just someone getting bitten by a Vampire.
Steve can you and i make blender films together?
I hope you wore your garlic necklace then
***** what makes you think that?
+CG Geek Thanks for the tutorial one of my favorite easy to understand nice job
The boolean part isn't working for me... :/ Doesn't do anything.
Great! Now I just need to watch it again to do it....
I really like your intro...
Hello, the boolean doesnt work the same as shown for me. The thing I get is without inner walls so if someone can help I would really appreciate it.
Create Samsung S7 plssss
I'm so into this I will start a channel based on smartphone concept designs :O
Take a shot every time he says cool
I put my iPhone in blender but it got smashed to bits..
Please how did yours survive. (Just for laughs 😂 )
Actually, I'm using this to create my own phone ideas.
same
Me too
same
Same
My Ctrl+B just creates triangles and scrolling does not increase the vertices the right way. not a round edge, but a straight edge.
Same, found a fix?
No i could not. Gave up on this one. Might be a problem with our different versions of Blender. IE - A lot of tutorials show drag'n'drop, but on my Version i can't. I'm on Blender 2.78
No worries, I found an easy fix. At the 'corner' you want to curve the object, select it, press W, and click "Remove Doubles".
And I use the same version
Thanks friend. I will try that. Trying to do simple objects with minimal faces till i can do cool things like my own ideas.... that are cool... sometimes.
Thanks for the awesome tutorial :)
But next time, please make a tutorial on the Oneplus 3 ;)
Hey steve i need a 1100$ pc for 3D modelling and render ehere could i get one assembled ?
Good one. Just get a decent gpu.
Yey! Thanks
I think I'll try to make a Galaxy S6 watching this tutorial :)
Did you try it?
+Θεατρο Σκιων Αλεξιου Yeah, I tried it, but the project is currently on hold right now. The modelling is difficult. :P I tried hard getting the shiny effect right though.
To be honest, why the iPhone 4? I recently made an iPhone 6
The one created in the Tutorial is an iPhone 5s, but the same process is used for pretty much any smart phone.
+CG Geek Oh excellent! Thank you for sharing!
please! upload a tutorial for making a whirlpool in blender! Show how to create a whirlpool.
Forgot the ear piece.
Those creases always bite me. Great tutorial though.
why all your video for Beginner?! i'm not Beginner and i still learn something out of it .
hope in the future delete the word " Beginner " just Tutorial.
When I say beginner I just mean easier, your right there's always going to be tips and tricks for even for advanced users. :)
what if i wanna make a samsung
Just change the logo

Jesus, you can make all of that in Blender cycles but I cant even make this with Cinema 4D octane... :(((
The good thing is that Blender is free, so why don't you download it? ^^
+Daniel Metzger I have it and I use it a little but, but I really cannot adjust to the user interface. It seriously confuses me + I've already spent 600 on octane (Education version of cinema)
It's all about months and years of practice mate
+Yannik W. (PXL Graphics) true, although I've never tried texturing a phone, I'll try it one-day
lol xddd
Hahaha nice start
When adding the solidify modifier Blender completely fucks up the model. This is how it looks:
drive.google.com/open?id=0B2UYVPHE7ryGdHBZM1FHbUpPTWc
drive.google.com/open?id=0B2UYVPHE7ryGakU4QXV2VFNNLTg
Here I increased thickness to maximize the stupid effect:
drive.google.com/open?id=0B2UYVPHE7ryGN013bWpMd3VsRVE
It does something completely different to the mirrored element than it's supposed to.
Can anyone help?
this takes a surprising amount of time...
All 3d modelling does. I recently created a snowy field with some foot prints and tire tracks. Took me about 11 hours.
I'll try to make iphone x after watching this :)
I just want to make something to import into Roblox

Lol know I can make fake concepts and people will believe its real
Haha this sounds like fun
"Guys, this is totally how the iPhone 8 is going to look."
Lol
