Bonsai Tree | Let's Build It In Blender

[@mmckn1885]

You're really getting around with this whole tutorial thing. You got your own channel and now videos on other channels. Insane. Keep up the good work.

[@ВадимСумаков-г9х]

Thank you, I noticed a few tricks for myself. Keep making content. You're cool!

[@cg_cookie]

Happy to help! Thanks for checking it out friend. -Chunck :)

[@animatorizwan]

Tutorial + Jokes + Awesome man. Subtle and fun. 😍🔥✌️

[@Zicore47]

After searching a few hours, this is probably my favorite workflow to make trees. (Extruding single vertices with skin + subdiv modifiers.)

[@Gatz3D]

Your tutorials are awesome. So much information broken down into digestible pieces. Fantastic stuff.

[@cg_cookie]

Hey, thanks Gatz! They don't call us Digestive Cookie for nothing! Er, I mean CG Cookie! :D

[@Gatz3D]

CG Cookie 😂😂

[@beatsburst4848]

so excited to watch this video

[@cg_cookie]

Can't wait to see you there! -Chunck :)

[@SpartanHawk]

Thanks for always showing which tools you are using, so I know exactly what to do. /s

[@julianvo5033]

Very Nice Video. Thank you. I also very like the instructor

[@G4ADStudios]

"It opened it's own branch", you got me with that one

[@elyasafaloni8925]

Some great tips you got there, especially the leaves and small branches! Very cool indeed. 👌

[@cg_cookie]

And you only needed to suffer through a few terrible jokes. Happy it helped out!

[@_pinkangels]

can you please tell me how you get the leaves to show up on the hair particles

[@davoa4665]

I really like the tree and ur jokes too 👍👌

[@mattshu]

this is my kind of tutorial! thank you!!!

[@Thisisnttravis]

LMAO that intro was 10/10

[@alithomaga]

thanks dude, that's pretty cool and interesting. Now I will do the same.

[@theredfox2073]

helping me in my IT class thanks man

[@cyano3d]

These are amazing my man. This is gonna be the next thing i make in the morning

[@cg_cookie]

Can't wait for you to get started! -Chunck :)

[@ordoni7878]

I was just planning on modeling a bonsai tree awesome timing :)

[@cg_cookie]

What impeccable timing! Hopefully this has given you a place to start. -Chunck :D

[@guy_roh]

These are soooooo goood

[@AK-sj6vt]

thats cool

[@gentlem8247]

You can probably do multiple branches with different leaves pattern and put them in a collection and use this collection instead of just one mesh, add some scale randomness may be even weight painting to control the spread of the branches

[@lazywizart]

This was a very helpful tutorial for me ! And I learned a lot of new things ! Thanks !

[@alexdib3915]

Thank you!

Great tutorial!

[@notsure1969]

Thanks for the great video. The jokes were...um...terrific.

reminder on ;)

[@cg_cookie]

Looking forward to chatting again, skeppy! -Chunck

[@Scarlov87]

THANKS!! :D

[@JaKlaro]

2:01 I didn't know that! I would make this with sculpting, but this is better

[@cg_cookie]

Makes it easy for if you then decide you want to sculpt too! -Chunck :)

[@_pinkangels]

when i make the branches, the leaves do not automatically show up in the particle system....i dont understand what to do next am i meant to parent them or something?

[@BobDunlock]

There were so many puns in this tutorial I started over-analyzing everything you were saying because the way you were delivering your lines sounded like a set-up. It was a bit distracting because it felt like you were looking beyond the root of the tutorial and couldn't leaf the puns alone. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree, but if every tutorial is like this I might need to branch off to some other youtubers.

[@raiden-kun8406]

Bruh HAHAHAHAAHHA

[@cg_cookie]

Like poetry. Might need you to write the next episode for me! -Chunck :D

[@douglasgerge6434]

i even heard more than he most likely intended, after being primed by this comment. like when he said "bevel the heck out of". häck is swedish for hedge

[@cg_cookie]

@@douglasgerge6434 The puns have gone multi-lingual! -Chunck :D

[@SameHat88]

Great voice.. Very calming yet educational.. My first video of yours

[@cg_cookie]

Looking forward to many more! -Chunck :)

[@SameHat88]

@@cg_cookie never stop learning as an Artist.. So definitely 😁

Nice tutorial. However the leaves leave a lot to be desired. I wonder if there is another/better way for them?

[@cg_cookie]

It really boils down to how much time you're willing to spend on them. For more intricate leaves, some more fine tune modeling will likely be required. - Chunck :)

[@floatingmonkeyhead939]

Eventually fine tuning with weight painiting could do the trick

[@josephbellamy2587]

Try importing an alpha hashed image texture of a leaf/branch as a plane and modify to your liking. This makes the material side of things a lot smoother also.

[@funwithblender485]

wow....One of the best Bonsai Tree tutorial.

[@nottodayrender]

thank u

“I now a guy that nows a guy who nows a modifier”... you have to introduce me to your friends 🤣

I have the same glasses!

[@cg_cookie]

Twinsies! -Chunck

[@raV_3d]

Leaves looks like crap (or cat vomit) but procedural skin modifier for a trunk and branches is great!

[@arshadajas6792]

Why does we have to use ctrl+A to scale the vertex and not S?

[@MrEbawu]

hi! could you please link the reference image?

[@frosts1lent19]

hi! where'd you get the picture for the bonsai tree? can you please send me the link. thanks in advance :D

Stupid me for searching 1st part of “Bonsai Tree” tutorial 😔

[@cg_cookie]

Oh no! You're right, the title and thumbnail could be a little confusing. Will take a look at trying to make future episodes look more uniquely episodic! -Chunck

It's only a good joke, if you laugh about it yourself. Hehe... But seriously: good jokes and great tutorial -> simple, efficient, entertaining. Thanks!!!

[@cg_cookie]

Oh believe me, I definitely laugh at myself. :D Thanks friend, hope to entertain you more with the next video! -Chunck :)

[@zelnaschutte9828]

How do we colour the tree?

[@1thatman1]

Excellent tutorial, a little suggestion: when setting values for example the scale of noise or strength of modifier, could you please take a second to show what values you ended up using( for example at 2:20). Would help A LOT to follow along, thank you.

[@kg13]

Hey guys! I'm a subscriber at cgcookie.com, you say in this second episode, could you link me for the first one?

[@cg_cookie]

Sure thing! However, just fyi the first episode is Chunck making a Desk Lamp, not a bonsai tree! kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2bPnqqViZ14ppY

[@kg13]

@@cg_cookie perfect! Thank you!

[@anoopjs]

Should have distributed the leaves in all direction in the branch instead of just one plane. That's the reason leaves looks artificial.

[@Micha-hb4gx]

Poor insance left behind when lamp was made :(

[@vizionthing]

Getting pissed off with my feed being filled with 'Premieres' SET REMINDER and its growing to the point where I have to search my feed for content i can watch now, so now its an instant unsub when one of these lands in my feed, I love your content, and with any luck some of your future work may end up in 'up next' - just thought you should know

[@cg_cookie]

Hey there! Appreciate the candid feedback. We're still figuring out the premiere feature. Do you think it's better to have a shorter premiere window, or simply not use it at all in your case?

[@vizionthing]

@@cg_cookie I jump on CG cookie's videos as soon as they are posted, the whole premier systems seems to be completely pointless unless it's used for live streams, I'd be much happier if I could just turn it off my end and as far as I can see there's no way for me to do that, I'd be happier if it was not used regular posting.
