I have so much to learn. I been using older versions of Blender forever. So much so I thought I must have the wrong video because this looks like a drawing/painting program, but I cannot wait to learn all of this stuff. Thank you for taking time to make this video. I finally got Blender 3.3 a few days ago.
Bender is such a positive force, people expressing themselves for free in every part of the world, even in countries where you cannot afford a 3d software. Subscribed ❤
Great tutorial. Update for Blender 3.2, at the time stamp 42:42, you can no longer "copy layer to object." Instead you can click on one object, and then the other, and select "Copy layer to selected" from the same drop down arrow.
Its always interesting to stumble on channels like this early on that are clearly going to be successful. Grease pencil specialists like you pushing boundaries and spreading knowledge of this cutting edge stuff are sorely needed! Definitely make a patreon, you deserve it, the sincere effort you are putting into your tutorials is wonderful
Aw thanks! After running from that stroke placement for months (because it's weird) now that I've gotten the hang of it it's my favourite! Also I saw you recently posted a tutorial too! Geometry nodes, that's something I've never tried before, I'll have to check it out :) I've gotten a few requests for grease pencil/geometry nodes tutorials so I've been sending them to yours, since I know nooothing about that, ahah
Wow thank you! Also you aren't kidding, after I posted this yesterday I basically just napped all afternoon, haha. It took more out of me than I expected! Of course I'm already planning a sequel, but definitely going to approach it in a more balanced (less frantic) way! But yeah that means a lot :) I mentioned your videos in my pinned comment because I've learned so much great stuff from your videos, so thank you
@@SophieJantak So true :D I was also so tired after finishing the 80 tips video. One great tip is when making tutorials is to divide the whole video into segments, also easy to timestamp them, then make the hardest one first and the one you're most excited last. That way it's mostly smooth sailing :D Can't wait for the sequel! Keep up the good work :)
These grease pencil tutorials you produce are excellent. You are definitely tapping into a much sought after type of Blender content, the current YT blender scene is dominated by 3D, but 2D will keep growing, especially now that Blender has such a powerful 2D toolset available. Keep on making your creative lessons, they are grabbing everyone's attention.
I'm really enjoying your channel. You are clearly an educator. Your flow and process of explaining the parts and processes of these projects is just fantastic.
Oh thank you so much! A LOT of planning went into this video (how I ordered the sections and how stuff was broken down) so I'm glad to hear it paid off :)
I've used Blender for 10 years, and I still love to see many times how people use it and discover it an rediscover it and I feel here with you discovering it, thank you for this, it's so nice. I will still take several times to do it slowly and peacefully
Just started following along with this tutorial, and not even halfway through, I find myself lost in my work. Thank you so much for making such a generous and pragmatic introduction to the program.
You're so dedicated and well organized! Amazing Sophie, congratulations for this huge tutorial and for sharing your knowledge with the world! Greetings from Argentina!
Update for Blender 4.0 min 42: go to outliner, select your new grease pencil, shift select you moss ball, click sphere_fills and the drop down button, copy layer to selected, double check if your layer is actually in moss ball.
Thank you ! As english is not my mother tongue, I really do love the way you enunciate distinctly. The content is quite pedagogical as well. Thank you again !
I'm so glad it's helpful and clear! I also transcribe all my videos so if english subtitles can help you those are available as well. Thank you for your comment :)
You seem like the sweetest person in existence, not to mention humor and great vocabulary which allows you to describe your tutorials so well, so it reaches everybody. I haven’t looked into using blender yet, but I am hoping to very soon and am starting with your tutorial. I’m excited ❤️❤️
What a beautifully positive persona! Subscribed immediately and looking forward to seeing more of your content. Not only helpful but also entertaining. Don‘t stop!
Oh wow. This is incredible!!! I'm figuring out how to implement both 3d and 2d art to animate a short video and this is exactly what I'm looking for!!!
this is exactly what i needed and so well explained!!! thank you so much for this resource i love your videos and your such a sweet person i wish i found your channel earlier haha.
What a wonderful video! I've just gone through all of the "Intro" videos on Blender and hadn't done anything in the software yet, but I was able to follow along with this with ease. You've got a real talent for teaching, I feel so lucky I found you!
Thank you was a lot and mean A LOT of information but your explanations were great to understand it and helped me a lot, I really learned many things in its video and not just about grease pencil, your way to show visually were things are in the UI is super helpful, your explanations about navigation setting and easy tricks for tools and general blender features are also very helpful, I believe this youtube channel is very underrated because we can really learn a lot of thins plus your voice and way to explain things are very pleasant, again thank you so much for sharing with us your knowledge and inspiration
This is by far the best Grease Pencil Tutorial I ve seen. I Wish Blender would Just be easier to use, like operations you would use activated by default and not Hidden in several menus.
Thank you so much. Appreciated! I'm only a few minutes in, but already understand grease pencil usage far better than from other tutorials. Fantastic job.
I'm so thankful for you! I'm learning a lot with your tutorials! My draw style it's not like yours (although I love your style) but you explain the tools with so clearly!! Thank youuu soo mutch
thanks for sharing your knowledge. I've used blender for some time now, but never used greasepencil because it wasn't as developed. Seeing your videos now makes me want to try it out someday 😁😁
I've just found about your tutorials and finished this video which I've found very helpful. You are as constructive as you are charming and humorous. Thank you for your hard work and guidance
I love this and I'll definitely be watching and trying more of your tutorials. My only other comment is that I highly recommend outputting renders as PNGs, especially if you have lower-end hardware. The worst thing is to get part way through rendering a video and to have blender crash so you have to restart. It's easy enough to use the video editor to make a video from the image sequence. You can even delete the PNGs after if you're really stuck for computer memory. Thanks again and I look forward to future videos 😁😁
That's definitely a good tip, thank you! I stopped doing that because it usually takes me under 10 minutes for a video render, but I should keep in mind my computer is probably better than a lot of users. I'll mention that in my next tutorial :)
Thank you for the time and care you put into this tutorial. You have an excellent ability to anticipate where your viewers will need additional explanation.
Aw well that's really reassuring to hear! I guess it helps that I was a beginner not too long ago myself :) But also I get some good feedback from viewers and try to incorporate it into future tutorials!
I brew my own kombucha as well, and one time I had some bottles second-fermenting with some blackberries from the yard in it. Well, I went to open one, and it EXPLODED and I couldn't get the lid back on... Looked like a crime scene! Still finding evidence of that explosion to this day.
Oh my Glob! Thank you soooo much! You're seriously a life saver. This is exactly what I've been missing for my sculpting pipeline! Once again, THANK YOU!!!
@@SophieJantak I'm through the video now, and it's very well explaiend! I'm considering doing my bachelor project with Greas Pencil now. I started off with a 2D animation but this method is so much apealing right now!
what a beautiful tutorial! I already wanted to finish to start with my drawings, thank you very much for these well explained tutorials. I will certainly see the others. Thanks!
Girl! Believe it or not, you and dedouze are the ones who helped me learn grease pencil clearly! Thank you so much for your tutorials! ♥ But one doubt: I know you draw grease pencil strokes in 3d space but filling in the colors in 3d space is a lot complicated and confusing for me. I've seen your works, I'm genuinely interested on your work flow, can you make or have a detailed tutorial on filling the strokes in 3d, please? 🙏
Hey, thank you for this! But I'm curious what you mean by filling in the colours in 3D space. Is there a piece of mine you could specifically refer to? I'm just not sure how to answer because what I've shared here is pretty much all the techniques I use.
@@SophieJantak like in your skeleton grease pencil tutorial, the strokes are placed in 3d space, if you were to fill the colors, you wouldn't be able to fill it normally, but in your demos, your pieces have colors filled and also they're 3d. That's what I'm wondering!
Hi! My take= Sophie paints her illustrations with large strokes so it gives the sense of filled shapes. But I know what you mean, Ive tried manipulating GP filled shapes in 3D with horrible results so far.
@@ZoeEvamy60 I'm literally doing a piece like that and I was stuck at the coloring part, I just modeled a low poly object, just a bit smaller than the grease pencil, subdivided, gave it some toon shader, kind of got the same results. I tried converting grease pencil to curve then added skin modifier, because of the complexity of my grease pencil it became really messy and crashed my blender, glad that I saved it beforehand! 😌
Great tutorial. Mine turned out horrible, kind of like the cakes on the show Nailed It! But practice makes perfect. So that's what I plan to do, until I've mastered Blender.
Did you know for that first part where you drew the stroke, converted it to a curve, and then into a mesh there's a slightly faster way? One of the curve tools is a Draw Curves tool that will allow you to "draw" a curve. (Loving your stuff, BTW :D )
