I've never seen videos this well-made. You're very chill and laid-back while also being informative without filler. Your work is incredibly high quality, it's evident you have a passion for what you do simply by your knowledge of how everything works. Your videos are genuinely refreshing to watch. You got yourself a new subscriber Andrey. :)

[@TheMrLeoniasty]

Great work! I love the detail in the tutorial, everything is so clear from start to finish, you are just awesome at making tutorials, can't wait to see more! :D

[@devanshparekh2746]

When I was new to C4D I watched your tutorials and I had no idea what you were talking about. After about a month or two I have come back and rewatched your stuff and I am mind blown. You can see how much work goes into every aspect of your content you do.

[@svenderik490]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Not only is it well-made, but your style and calm voice really makes this a pleasure to follow!

[@AndreyLebrov]

Glad you like it mate. Thank you very much!

[@hotzenmonster]

I’m watching one of your videos every day since returning to Cinema 4D after a 6 year hiatus. So much has changed in that time and I really appreciate these tutorials. You seem like a very cool guy and your videos are my favorite so keep them coming and thanks again!

[@itownboys]

this channel should hit million soon ! love the videos you produce man, please focus more on vfx tutorial also & 3d things!! dope bro

Thanks mate. Well... million might be a bit too much, but I'm happy to read this :D

Sure. That’s the goal 😊

[@Murathanaksoz]

this is the coolest tutorial i have ever seen in my life. and that guy like a cold blood killer so good man 😎

[@HandheldGuy]

I'm dying about how you really share your ideas, It's so huge effort from you to share this knowledge while doing a Vblog and creating out of the box video which you even include VFX on your youtube video. everything just blow my mind!! following!!!

[@HristoKavalov]

As I scramble myself across the depth of internet in almost desparate educational efforts I gather theoretical knowledge. I know that stuff but seeing it presented by different people in a different way twice or thrice helps to turn that info in fundaments... practicing of course as well (if you have a good renderer or the nerves to wait for the slower ones ;d). Latest versions of Photoshop has the option in Filter>3D> Generate Bump or Normal Maps... may be not better then custom maps but an automative process helps to investigate what is what and how it affects the light flow across the surface. Love the owl.... Oooooh! also like how you njoy yourself and have fun when doing those tutorials. Thanks for the work and we are eager for the next ones!

[@AndreyLebrov]

Thank you very much Hristo. I didn't know that Photoshop has these options natively now, excited to try. Previously I was using different plug-ins but they couldn't do it on a good level. I love how community forms on KZbin. I'm uploading vids to share what I know and get educated in return, haha :D Thank you once again.

[@kasschoong3979]

this tutorial is soooo good in many way, its so clear and u even list out the things that u are currently talking about while most of other ppl tutorial be like watching their face/monitor for whole video

[@jay4825]

Really great tut man! u deserve way more views. Cant wait till next tutorial ^^

[@uixmat]

This tutorial is unreal man. I'm brand new to Cinema4D and the level of detail this tutorial goes into within 12 mins is amazing. I've just bought Octane Render today... this weeks mission to photograph some cool textures as you did and make a simple composition using them. Will 100% tag you in the final piece, i'm properly inspired by your work and videos.

Do you have any idea how much did you help me with this tutorial? You really opened doors for me, thank you very much, I'm subscribed.

[@user-fm1do5cz8t]

You made me subscribe right away 'cause this is the kind of video tutorials that makes the viewer feel the artist has put most of his heart and passion onto his craft. Not only this is informative but also inspiring. The last point you mentioned about putting your "feelings" to your craft burned deep into my mind. I'll always keep that in mind. You are great!

Great tutorial and awesome advices too! When I'm in lack of textures (from the internet also), I'm just praying that there is something on shutterstock that I can use.

Keep up the awesome work! Thank you! Cheers from Serbia!

Thanks a lot for sharing that knowledge! That's very inspiring. I'd really like to know how you came with the final result we can see at 9:23. That's the type of rendering i'm aiming for, and quite frankly never achieve it. If you fancy sharing a bit more about this, i'd forever (and my clients) be grateful :) Cheers!
