Do you know how fast that Nostalgia hit?

This is an old animation/render test i made for a now abandoned project from 2016 i think. (Sheesh was that really eight years ago?)

hi can i use this video for a school project ? Won't be shared

I go more in-depth with the creation of this character on my socials like threads (@ lanceberyl) and insta (@ lance_beryl) but will probably do a tutorial on the IK telescopic arms eventually. LORE for people who want lore: So, this golem/automaton is actually one among many which tend to the garden and other facilities of the Heartbase. They (as I'm writing) don't have any assigned gender, but I'd like to hear ideas for names of the various golems. "Charlie" is one I really like.

😭 Promo'SM

This is a really cool exploration of different ways to do this. I was wondering about a different issue I'm having though, when the grass particles are set to "Children: Simple" and you increase the radius, it makes them spread outside of the emitter, and they'll overlap objects that are next to the grass, but if I switch it to "Interpolated", it stays contained to the emitter, but the texture doesn't mix the colors around in a more natural way. Any ideas of how to solve that? I haven't been able to find a way to mask out the stray grass pieces at the edges. Using booleans still has overflowing particles even if you use it to change the shape of the emitter.

Where is the bob omb walking now one knows but the bob omb itself

Is it just me or does it feel like the floor is moving faster than his walk cycle?

Getting ready for Wonka I see. xD

Probably not the final version, will keep working on it. (See description for info.)

Dedicated video on the creation and animation of this character will hopefully come eventually. (See description for additional info in regards to the animation and future prospects.) This was a very fun and informative exercise that helped me realize what's possible with Blender's various tools and culminative study/experience. This exercise also revealed many ways the rig and my process could be improved.. for example. I realized very late into animation that she does not have a swivel set up; so she can rotate her tripod independent of her body, but not her body independent of her tripod, which is a limitation I'll need to fix. ..As I mention in the description, I'm not entirely sure what to do with her voice or sound effects, but not in a hurry just yet. Vocaloid/voicesynths may be something I'll continue to look into. Currently her name is "Camm," short for Camera. It's a very simple but fitting enough name. I've entertained alternatives like "Cami," "Cordalynn," "Cordaline," "Camalynn," but I'm not the best at coming up with names. Open to suggestions.

I’m working on something similar but I like where you’re going with this idea; it’s simple and can easily transition to a still pose for your gameplay.

Very clever design. Also pun. 🤣

Very nice work keep it up.

I've always liked the idea of having a more diegetic setup versus the standard webcam in the corner / floating screen most creators have. Getting the proportions and positions right has been a headache, and I'm still not 100% set tbh. Gameplay channel to feature these animations in description!

Very impressive. Like you said, a little finicky, I’m noticing clipping here and there; mostly your shirt into your jacket when you sway. No arm tracking, that’s definitely a tough one, especially with a full custom like this one.

My new let's play channel featuring this avatar if you're interested: kzbin.info/door/4LFJvu8fTMO5VW64wWm3vg

can this be done with Cycles render?

my grass is inverted how do fix

If you're coming in way late like i am, here's how you get this working... Follow the original tutorial up until he starts making an object for the grass particles (about 16 minutes): kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6G5YYR3bdGWbaM Then, add the Normal Node as shown in this video to the front of the Diffuse shader he added. You're supposed to duplicate the ground plane shader, and change it's shadow method from Opaque to None, and use that on the particles, but... i'm in 2.93.8, and everything is working fine (actually kinda better) just using the same material on the ground and the particles. Experiment. Thank you, Lance (and others), for all your hard work and experimentation with this!

Great video! but for some reason I cant get the shadows to work, they also disappear when I put the stuff of the tutorial file into a new file and I have no clue why, does someone have an idea? Edit: Nvm, I figured it out but in case anyone else struggles with it: make sure you also have the right world shader stuff Edit No. 2: They work in the viewport but not if I render it? I tried to render it in Eevee and other shadows in the scene work but not the shadows on the ground, I'm not really proficient in Blender yet so any tips on how to solve this is welcomed :D

thank you so much man ! this was so helpful

Will you be doing more videos about NPR style stuff!!! 😍😍😍😍😍 I’ve been looking for npr style tutorials stuff like forever.(clouds,grass,water, trees) to name a few. You could be the channel that has every thing I need. If you do more videos actual tutorials.

I think that at the actual blender version this grass by hair particle doesn't work anymore

If anyone understands how the particle systems use render as paths instead of objects and still have the grass shape instead of hair strands i would be eternally grateful for an explanation.

I really love your video! thanks 💖❤

where is the tutorial starts at guy?

Sadly dropbox no longer exists; would it be possible for you to upload a new link to the file?

Hey! I loved your video! When I create new objects and use the same particle system it doesn't work properly, for each object I have to reconfigure the particle system from scratch, why is that?

I love you.

Amazing.

it works fine but is there a way to make it react to light coming from an emission object? it reacts well to light from a source like sun light or area light but when it comes to objects emitting light like a cube with emission shader, it just doesnt react to it. i am new to all these so please explain

It's strange but even with normal node the grass keeps casting shadows on itslef, and it look weird. Even if I open your project from gumroad the resual are exactly the same

Did you just disappear?

Does anyone know how to do this on maya?

the sleek definitely have a better facial read

Unfortunately this method clashes with contact shadows. As soon as I turn them on everything is back at square one. But I don't want to leave them off because then the rest of my scene looks bad. Any suggestions?

anyone else getting the issue where shadows aren't even showing up?

How do I affect the distribution of the grass if I want thick/thin patches or taller/shorter grass?

is it usable in a game engine like Unity to make a big terrain?

I hope someone makes an actual tutorial out of this ...

I know this is a bit old but I managed to stumble on to this video. At 33:31 minute in the Base Ground Color/Texture frame if I use a mixrgb node after the colorramp it overrides the colorramp node and messes up all 5 of my grass colors. In order to fix this instead of a mixrgb node I used a brightness node and it work! Thanks for the video.

Really nice tutorial, I was impatient to just see the latest method, but I'm glad I watched the whole thing. Learned a lot about shaders that I wouldn't have otherwise, and I wouldn't have understood how amazing it is at 26:05 when *it just works* lol. Thanks for all the knowledge, appreciate how much you put into this

hey that works pretty nice! I checked out the file too, it was very useful in understanding what's going on. Thank you!

looks gorgeous!
