Bevel Theory in Blender 

This was really helpful and seeing the three different models side-by-side really emphasises the point

Great to get some bevel theory. I recently watched a video that discussed 3 people modelling a glock. The expert criticised the intermediate modeller for using booleans. Would be interesting to have a video on Boolean theory.

My new favorite channel. Very clear explanations, and love that your work is oriented towards 3D printing... that is sorely lacking among all the other Blender channels. Thanks!

I do love this types of videos. As some form of constructive criticism I'd say I'd love if you used some of the last parts of the video to show like an end result comparison of all the different models side by side in a still frame with no movement so that anyone can pause and compare for themselves the different versions. Other than that this was really helpful, thanks!

This is a quality explanation.

I have just found this video, and it's brilliant! More theory please, because this one made me stop and think, rather than following on with a how-to tutorial. Why we do something, should we even be doing it in the first place, is something we need a lot more of.

I really love this kind of theory videos with systematic explanations. Really helps me to improve my work. Looking forward to more of this kind of

I honestly love this video where you show all the bevel methods, including CTRL B in Edit Mode.

The bevel between window pane and its frame, is usually called a seal :D

Never really thought about it consciously but you're right!

100% agree and I can spend hours going through a model playing with different bevel and bevel weights to get it all just right and believable.

Really really enjoy these video that discuss design tips to convey different materials and textures

Good overview of the pros and cons of bevels for different applications.

Great point. Using refferences always helps. No matter if you are doing it for scifi or you are doing it for giggles. (and no, dont use artstation as refference. use real life refference)

Haven't commented in a while but your videos are always useful

I like the design theory/intent explanation. Do make more. 🙏😁

i liked the intro cool video thanks

good point mate!! when i was working on high poly models, interior models, we have the rule to do bevel only on visible and obvious edges

Oh I absolutely hate theory videos! But I want more of them! Just kidding. This was pretty interesting and the 3 examples at the end nearly spoke for themselves. Though I'll mostly focus on recreating real life objects wich leave me no real choice where to bevel and where not ^^ But as of now I find it quite challenging to stick to a given geometry as exact as possible. I would really like more Videos on that topic even if it's certainly more fun to be free and creative and to be more of a designer.

Yes, more of this please ⚡⚡⚡

Very interesting video. Just subscribed to your Patreon :)

Bevel everything

Understanding, improving & attacking new situations -versus- simply "copying" instruction??... no contest!! Now, as to balancing > detail / baking / decal / etc. with low poly / joined meshes / etc (model+materials+light)... Any thoughts?

I was wondering if you could maybe do a video on how to wrap something like a chain around a sword or something. I've been trying to do just that with a katana I made for about 2 weeks now and I just can't figure out how

ggreat video

would i be right in saying tho that this is destructive and the way to make it non destructive is to use a non destructive way i can use weights right?

Great video, and I love the theory. How does beveling effect painting? I'm assuming the hard edges pick up more drybrushing than the beveled ones and change the appearance even more.

hello man will u tell me how do i change the grids to centimeters ? i want every grid squar is 50 centimeter and thank you in advance

completely random question; do you think theres going to be a point in the future where slicers will be able to use normal data (smooth shading) for printing? eg not needing a billion polys to make a cylinder actually print round?

I guess I have the opposite addiction. I like to sharpen things/aka edge crease :D I do like the bevel modifier which I didn't know about funny enough for a while, and beveled a bit manually but after watching some tutorials I encountered the advice of not using bevel and sub divide much and it's best to use edge loops instead of subd. Totally agree the middle one looks the best and the first one looks almost low poly which is a bit ironic because of all the bevel geometry. Could you use a bevel modifier and then come back in and add a different type of bevel to some of it or does that mess up the geometry. I know there's a few settings in the bevel modifier that can apply a bevel that can alter the way the bevel looks just need to play around with it a bit more to figure out which option to do for what I'm modeling.

I haven't started w/ Blender yet & I want to design my own things to 3dp. What videos should I start with?

I’ll bevel whtvr I want bish 💁🏿‍♀️

Stop the bevel madness! 😄

i feel called out :3

Bevel so much, until everything looks like a bar of soap

but i love to bevel :P

Bool tool[add on] Hard bool? fixes geo overlap..me.me .I forget. Sorry.

This comment is beveled!

I beveled my wife :(
