the hardest thing in blender is knowing the tools you need to make what you want. Once you getting familiar with a lots of tools in blender the work becomes more fun ayou get less headhache. Sometimes you realize in the begining because your lost that a 5 minute tutorial video will take you 3 hours to make becuas ethere is so much info packed in those 5 minutes but redo this and in no time you will be able to do the same thing in 10 minutes.. Also as you get along your learning you realize that blender is a base product but you can get hundreds of free add ons and pluggins that will help you being more efficient at dong certain things. Im 4 months in and already made some really cool stuff by myself and i aldo fallow tutorials. I think The daughnuttutorial is really the best to begin with and if you fallow the multiple part of it and you still enjoy blender after it you know its for you and if you get bored after 1-2 part of the tutorials you know its not for you but that daughnut is really where its at to begin your journey a 10 parts tutorial with the best biginer information you can get.

@@FulguroGeek I really really really love blender like idk why like it should be hard but it’s not and idk why I love blender. I think it’s mainly because it’s like an empty canvas for me or like legos in the sense that if you can dream it you can make it. The donut tutorial is where I started and it’s amazing(I personally prefer the 2.8 tutorial since that one is photorealistic and I am a huge fan of photorealistic renders whereas the new one is a cartoony one) that tutorial taught me so much and It only reinforced my love for blender. Overall I always ask myself why I like blender because I never really imagined myself doing this kind of thing with vfx work and renders but its the endless possibilities of what I can create that makes me love it and I will continue my blender journey and hope to create even more amazing renders 😀😀😀
Just a tip for people who wanna get better at blender, yt shorts actually have a lot of good tutorials that can show you how to do various things in less then a minute
Don't do the donut It's a waste of time Think of something you want to make and then search for tutorials based on that I made decent progress(started only 3 months ago)
@@Porkupine69 the donut tutorial is basically a beginner’s tutorial about edit mode, modifier, materials, scatter, texture painting, etc. that is implemented into an object so its not a waste of time if what you want is to know what these different tools are, but if you only use blender for example only to sculpt, then its a waste of time
Do the Donut. I did the Donut, was super frustrated with it and made a lot of mistakes. I took a big break after that frustration and I'm progressing much more quickly now. In hindsight, that Donut tutorial taught me the tools of blender. After that, you can start getting into specific things you want to learn and the tools that the donut tutorial provides are going to be applicable all over the place.
I love how everyone goes a different route in learning blender. This progression is definetly one of my favorite since grant and ian hubert and cg geek have really good tutorials and your motion graphics and realistic renders really look incredibly good. Keep it up!
Man, that last animation you’re working on is like straight up exactly the type of stuff I’m learning Blender to create…you even used the music from the movie “Passengers” which is such a beautiful soundtrack, something I thought nobody else would even know about. This just inspired me a lot, great work.
Ngl that last short animation was sick! Really felt like the start to a movie/documentary. Looks really good! Tbh now i want to what that movie even though it doesen't exist XD. It's just super well made! Absolutly amazing! Keep doing what you do 'cause you're great at it!
I have been working in the 3d MAx program for many years. Recently I decided to try BLENDER, I thought the programs would be similar, but I was wrong. I feel like a schoolboy again who started learning the alphabet for the first time.
I just started and I love working with blender it's so interesting, and when I'm not on it I love coming to RUclips for inspiration and tell my self in a year I could make stuff like that that.thanks so mutch for inspiration
My favorite bit is the fire watch tower. Both the picture taken at night and the shot taken from under the tower are both very nice. Can you comment on what you did here in terms of the shading, or maybe, there is a name for the aesthetic you were going for?
These are great and its only been a year. I'm just starting to learn blender. Never had patience with working with a mouse but I hope I can do as well as you have done in that short amount of time. Keep it up!
My favourite thing about learning blender is watching people's progression videos, I find it super motivating to keep learning! Your video, especially as you've done a couple of projects that I'd love to try, mainly your Domineos boxes!
I just wanna say that I watched a few Blender progression videos before this one and none of them inspired me not even just a bit, as a beginner on blender I found that frustrating but your video, wow, I loved it and I love what you realized, it gives me a lot of inspiration and motivation and I'm thankfull for that
เป็นแรงบันดานใจให้ผมได้ดีมากๆ ผมที่เพิ่งเริ่มไม่นาน แล้วรู้สึกท้อกับการเรียนรู้ทำให้อยากทำให้ได้บ้าง (It's a great inspiration for me. I recently started then feeling discouraged from learning makes me want to do something )
amazing work! you're very talented and your progress has been phenomenal. the last scene is so beautiful it almost brought a tear to my eye lol. I just started (re)learning blender a couple weeks ago and your video has inspired me to keep going, so thank you!
For me it's interesting that from the beginning you start to develope some cinematographic vision, particles, camera effects but not modeling. Unfinished piece is amazing btw, looks like beginning of AAA space film.
I love the progress you made so far! As a photographer, I noticed in the project you're working on now when it shows the sun, you have seven "sun star" points, but the sun flare is round. If imitating a camera, I would suggest changing the round sun flares to hexagons, because the seven sun star points go with the seven fractals on the circle, making a hexagon. Very small detail, not bad at all. Overall, love the work! Keep it up!
Good stuff! Keep up the good work :3 Just started my first real attempt at Blender today (obviously making a donut lol). Seeing all these progression vids is really inspiring! It's crazy how fast you can catch on after you get past the overwhelming u.i. I definitely don't have it all down yet but I'm already getting familiar with the layout and have a good chunk of the hotkeys memorized.
This is amazing! Seeing your skills and style develop was simply joy! Keep up the wonderful work, and I can't wait to see what you make in the future (the Mars sequence is looking fantastic)! (Also it's nice to find another Denis Villeneuve fan ;) )
You really like space xD I just started yesterday, I'm amazed by how big other people project's are, but it scares me a little bit, it seems to be hard as fck
@@charlesmeyer3808 Next week comes the next episode of the course 😉 I've also set up a Discord server if you're interested, where you can share your progress and get tips
I am not gonna lie, the last thing in the list made me think that you had modelled a moldy orange, and something was going to come out of it. Great work though :)
Nice work. Inspiring! I’ve started over at beginner level several times. There are loads of good tutorials out there, but switching from tutorials to truly original work is the tricky part, for me at least.

@@florianschwarz5541 the first one was released in 2019 and then came Blender 3.0 with geometry nodes so he made a new one
Took me 2 files and 3 tries with the donut, so I feel that. This guy progressed well. I'm about 4 months in and nothing like this.
You were the most honest person who posted a truly achievable progress in one year. Thank you for being honest and great work.
Thanks!
This is great! How much time would you say you spent per week on average? I only have about a day and a half free every week…
I love how everyone goes a different route in learning blender. This progression is definetly one of my favorite since grant and ian hubert and cg geek have really good tutorials and your motion graphics and realistic renders really look incredibly good. Keep it up!
Thank you 👌
I’m still in the first donut phase, this is impressive as hell.
aye we gonna get there with time
me too
just did my first donut today, best of luck to us and the fellas on this comment thread
Me too
@@kuuanu6969 how you guys learning going .
that scene with the tower falling onto the power lines is the exact type of art that is making me get into blender. just simple art. awesome work.
Thanks 🙌
This is the coolest fucking shit I’ve ever seen!
It’s insane to see you go from a donut to that ending animation in just a year Good job dude
Thanks ❤
Bro your first render was just 🔥
Thanks 🔥

I started Blender a week ago, and watching this makes me want to get better and better.
Amazing works, i love the realistic style. Simply amazing!
Thank you! If you're interested I just posted the first 2 episodes of my blender course for beginners
People’s progress on here is so cool to watch. Amazing work!
Thank you!

Looks really good!
Tbh now i want to what that movie even though it doesen't exist XD. It's just super well made! Absolutly amazing!
Keep doing what you do 'cause you're great at it!
Thanks a ton!
I like how there’s a floating dounut
I'm going to be honest this is really overwhelming as, barely, a beginner but i hope things start making sense later down the road
Today I have completed the donut tutorial :3 now looking at progression vids, I love how like in the beginning everyone starts with a donut.
It's always the donut ahah
the heeeell! can't believe my own eye, EVERY piece is so good!
Thanks!!
These works are really admirable. I just started learning from today, love from Bangladesh
Thanks! If you're interested I just posted the firsts episodes of my Blender Course. Also We share our progress on our Discord server
Just started my donut tutorial this week. This is awesome and thanks for the inspiration & motivator! Great work
Awesome! Thank you!
Dude, this is an insane amount of progress. Keep it up.
Thank you!
2:51 i love how the light flashing syncs with the music
Thanks
You made it look like it’s a simple thing. I remember giving up after the donut
It is a matter of practice

I would say you are great but no, its so much more than this ! Lets wait they invent the words to describe how you are good ! i am impressed !
🙏🙏🙏
Very cool and exciting, I was especially struck by the last video with space, I actually thought that you stole this moment from some movie
Wow. Particularly liked the rolling rings effect with the swinging ball.
Your video gets me excited to dive into this creative outlet
Glad to hear that 👌
made my donut earlier today and now i feel like i know nothing lol
all of this is really cool, good job man
Thanks!
amazing, I just started the donut tutorial yesterday and this is mind-blowing
Great! If you're interested I just posted the first 2 episode of my Blender course
finished the donut yesterday, laughed so hard at the flying donut in the forest, it looked incredible XD
😉
Love the blade runner animation!

Beautiful, you really progressed so much. Well done and keep going, you’re doing amazing! ✨:D
This video was so relaxing that I almost fell asleep, great work man
You know I was looking at my one year progress and was proud, then this pops up lol
God this is inspiring. I'm gonna watch this whenever I wanna get motivated to learn.
Your progress in just one year is really great! Keep up the good work
Nice dude. This was quite inspirational and amazing to watch. Keep learning and improving your skills, can't wait to see your progress from now on
Thanks! Will do!
this is frickin incredible, in just a year ?
i'm going to start teaching myself Blender today. great job
next thing u know you're modeling your own things
Thanks 😊

the blade runner one!!!! I'm speechless!!! keep up the great work!!
Thank you very much!
4:39 that's crazy I really want a guide on how to make a city from a scratch
Noted 👌
Ah man, Firewatch, great taste, that game was just 👌
Awesome. Starting this journey myself. Think my old 2013 Mac Pro would take a year to render just one of your animations.
Best of luck!
