For anyone who was confused as I was at 5:20 ish when he did the loop cut - If you did the modifier like he did in the video, make sure you're not in edit mode (tab) to switch and then there will be an arrow near the top of the modifier panel. Click it and click apply. After that simply press control r and you should be able to do the loop cut.
good tutorial but if you're reading the comments before the vid try to keep vertices count as minimum as possible without it looking trash because it will save you a lot of work
Guys just a heads up don't be an idiot like me at 4:00 if your sword looks see through/clear hold down z and switch from wireframe to solid it took me an hour to figure out why my sword was see through and I thought I did something wrong
Honestly i think this method is pretty good, but i suggest using subdivision and just voxel remeshing later to get a better topology after you make all the details.
its a good tutorial tbh but beginners or people who just wants to design something for fun cant catch up and also you mention things that beginners cant understand
@@brokensmiles2240 no😕 even asked reakol about it personaly he gave me some advice but it didnt work. If you really have a problem join his discord server and dm him
Cool tutorial! I made my second sword with this! 1 question: my camera is always focused on 1 point (3D cursor or middle of the object). How can I move freely like you do?
I don't understand 5:24. I can only place a specific loop cut on the sword, and not one that moves onto the line in the middle of the sword. I don't get how I am supposed to make the blade sharper.
If this is too confusing, you should probably take at least a few beginner blender tutorials, or you could also watch the part one of this video which is less complex
the basics are cool but what about the things beyond that. details and so. applying textures and exporting them. I have to go to about 5 different videos to get the whole processs to learn
Im still stuck on the loop cut part, like everytime i do it my model just freaks out and starts going wild. Could you please explain clearer what we are meant to do
would NOT recommend watching these types of videos without getting to know the basics of blender & important stuff you need to know. I would recommend instead watch a beginners video and then come back to this when you gain more knowledge on how blender works.
I didn't get that I was only suppose to model the blade first and not the whole sword, so i have to restart the entire sword😭. but good tutorial though, thank you!
@Reakol Just a quick question man, for the camera view after I place it on X axis, how do I lock it into place? I tried to look it up on google and all it brought up was before versions that I barely understand and made me even more confused
To move around while being locked in the X Axis you want to hold Shift as well as the middle mouse button and it moves the camera while keeping the same view.
I really want to believe this is a good method, but I know from experience that using this method gives you bad topology and gives you a overall okay design. Most of the time you spend more time troubleshooting shading problems and have to scrap the whole project all together. /: Trust me, it's easier to model the base from a cube and adding the hard details later on.
Every time I go to export even something simple like a tree into Roblox studio, it gives me an error message. I made sure I exported it as the correct file type and did everything correctly in studio, please help. I do not know how to get rid of the error message and make it work properly.
@@Reakol alright, i checked, it didn't pass 10k tris. I really need this fixed, but nobody can figure out what my problem is. but thanks for trying, if you have any other solution or some way i could show you please let me know, very sorry to be an inconvenience.
For a tutorial you went way to fast I lost you around 1:20 seconds can you make a slower in depth version for beginners literally just downloaded to day
I'm extremely new to game making, I mean I've made random bad games with free models and a few models made by myself (mostly bad), and I never really TRYED to make a good game but I'm gonna try now hopefully this goes well (if you have any tutorials you could recommend on scripting or just making games in general pls give me them! also if my grammar is bad its that I don't care Grammarly is helping me rn lol) (also I'm copying and pasting this on tutorials I watch xd)
Hey I'm having trouble moving up and down to get by design and everytime I click the middle button on my mouse it makes me rotate instead of moving around. How can I fix that?
just a tip explain some more for beginners since some people will probably not understand what youre doing even if they look at the keys youre pressing
@@ReakolThe whole video was extremely fast paced and I had to slow the video to x0.5 to get a grasp of what keys you were pressing and when. You did specify in the description for this video that its for both beginners and advanced modelers, but it didn't come across that way watching and following along with the video. I agree with nado that certain things should be explained more (or maybe the process should be slowed a little) Though, this video is old, so im sure this pacing issue is something you've already been made aware of, or it was just a time limit forced by youtube 👍

bro thanka
OMG THANK YOU
Your voice is so chill and humble, not in weird way or anything.

thanks man it helped now i can start creating more stuff with these methods and hopefully get into the ugc

I started this week and I understood it all. I guess if you don’t understand something you can just look it up
Amazing vid, as always.
Glad you enjoyed!
when ever i try to add the middle part at around 5:10, it spazzes out when i try to scale it

Middle mouse button
Use Shift and Middle Mouse Button (MMB)
Video idea: How to texture models in blender or photoshop or whatever.
photoshop? wtf?
1:05 how you rotate plane?
as always an amazing video !! 😀
Thanks!
just use a plane/cube instead of verticies, you wont need connect them and fill faces
Nice tutorial even tho I don’t know how to use blender
its a very good tutorial but one question: how would u color your weapon model?
this tutorial. IS PERFECT.
I don't understand 5:24. I can only place a specific loop cut on the sword, and not one that moves onto the line in the middle of the sword. I don't get how I am supposed to make the blade sharper.
me too
Hello! nice video
Thanks!
Saw the Notification and clicked immediately. Thanks dude
same
same
Appreciate it!!!
Thx for this video 🤩
The loop cut literally does not work the vertices won't even go away u skipped half of the things you did
how do u do any of this it’s so confusing how fast your going and you expect us to know practically all of this
To be completely honest what he showed barely touched the surface of blender.
Of course, he had experience with this which made it look easy.
If this is too confusing, you should probably take at least a few beginner blender tutorials, or you could also watch the part one of this video which is less complex
i dont think this is specifically targeted for beginners at blender but for people who are more intermediate with the software
I agree it is hard, but it’s coming from a beginner who probably should watch more tutorials first. Lol.
This is also a super inefficient way of using blender
How do you make the dots cus when i do that they end up too far back or too far forwards they just never stay aligned how?
Amazing just amazing :D
Thanks!
This is part 2?
why did he start the video at 09:11 no time stamp just look at the star in right bottom corner
I cant figure out how to fill, i select all the edges and press F but it wont create the actual model, only a weird white ish space, but no model
honestly you made this so freakking simple
i do want the blade to be sharper but ill have to trial and eror
it wont let me add the loop cut down the middle, what did i do wrong?
where can i download blender
I also Wonder
Does anyone know what he did at 1:36 cause the white is blocking it for me to see
my image wont drop into blender.
this helped me so much thx
good video, but with this method (delete vertices of plane) u can't texturize it....
Thank you! 🙏
super duper tutorial u helped me a lot ty
-Vojin
How do you do the edges part?
im stuck on sharping the blade, idk why it goes wild and not like in your video
Are you talking about around 5:24 when he makes the loop cut?
this is very epic
"Easy? Who ever said this was gonna be easy?"
How do i change the color of the sword to multiple different colors. When I try to do it my sword becomes the same color as it wad before
the basics are cool but what about the things beyond that. details and so. applying textures and exporting them. I have to go to about 5 different videos to get the whole processs to learn
when i try to scale my loop cut it makes the entire model bigger. How do i fix this?
When I trace the image, the vertices go behind it, how can I fix that?
This what such a great help
can someone make a tutorial on how to model mm2 weapons in blender?
yo, when i do like that the point almost like they slip backward and forward and go through the picture, how to fix it?
thanks, dude.
Im still stuck on the loop cut part, like everytime i do it my model just freaks out and starts going wild. Could you please explain clearer what we are meant to do
Fr he talks so fast like it isn’t even a tutorial
would NOT recommend watching these types of videos without getting to know the basics of blender & important stuff you need to know. I would recommend instead watch a beginners video and then come back to this when you gain more knowledge on how blender works.
Hey I have a question why when I click f does it turn translucent instead of opaque
Hello I'm your biggest fan
Hi! Thanks!
Do you remember me btw I used to comment a lot
it makes a hole on the whole other side but then its solid on another
at 3:02, whats the benefit of making the lines between points straight and parallel?
probably without it would be somewhat messy and as good in the vid

@@Reakol Thank you man I kept rotating it instead of actually being able to move to see better
help i can't see the loop cut
how do you do the sharp edges? i tried to loop cut but it wont let me cut it on the middle unless its on the face of the sword
If you used the solidify mod, you have to apply the mod first
5:03 dont mind me lmao i had to redownload blender once I realized I still have an old version xDD
How do I find a reference image that kind of looks like his
can you make a new version but you say it it a way for the beginners to understand
I really want to believe this is a good method, but I know from experience that using this method gives you bad topology and gives you a overall okay design. Most of the time you spend more time troubleshooting shading problems and have to scrap the whole project all together. /: Trust me, it's easier to model the base from a cube and adding the hard details later on.
That's what I thought
Good for someone that starts now like me
can anyone tell me what app that is?
please, i would appreaciate it.
Can this become a accessories in roblox? I realy want to creat my own sword. 😗😗
Yo what’s his sword call
if i were to hire you to make a 3d model how much would it cost I cant model and need someone to do it.
999M
PER HOUR
4:00 can't you just select all of the edges by holding rc and outlining all of the edges?
i cant do the start i cant move the sword to blender :(
can someone explain the steps through 1:07 - 2:34? it's too fast
The sword: hi welcome to skyrim
i cant zoom in on my picture and places the vertices like you do
make a slow fully begginer one please properly
What's your pc ram and how old is it
General questions
32gb, and about a year or so old.
Nice mine is like 8 year old ;-;
confused how u traced pls explain
after i merge to last evrything desepears
Im curious is there a certain website to get reference images as Im not really able to find any
what blender version is that can you give me the link
It's the latest version, www.blender.org/.
I dont have the option to Merge Vertices after i've traced my weapon on the plane
if you select the 2 vertices and right click and click "merge vertices" that should be one fix.
@@Reakol yeah but yours says merge last. Mine only says merge at cursor, merge at center.

To be exact, the error message gives me a link to a mesh part troubleshooting page , and even the contents on that page do not fix it.
If you're talking about an error when you import an object just import it again and it fixes it usually.
@@Reakol i've tried to re-import it over 8 times and it still gives me an error message
@@cryoniccodex8604 Only other thing I can think of is you're either exporting the model wrong or you've surpassed 10k tris.

So to do that hold shift and move with your middle button
how/where do you find the images of swords tho
I just used Google most of the time or Artstation.
@@Reakol but what did you search in google?
I dont understand how to do faces
can you give me the reference link ?
how do i import the photo
for anyone wondering why loopcut doesnt work its because you have to place the loopcut in the middle from a birds eye view
just a tip explain some more for beginners since some people will probably not understand what youre doing even if they look at the keys youre pressing

how did u do the rotation thing at first im new to blender
Press R then X/Y/Z depending on what axis you want to rotate in.
