I recreated St.Paul's cathedral... in 3D! Here is how I did it

[@reb5920]

Another proof that this guy is a hidden gem, cant believe what i just saw, great job

[@hbitproject]

Thank you very much!

[@darkframepictures]

Right? “Solid attempt” is about the most humble thing he could say about work like this. Masterful would be a better description. 🙏

[@ArchitekturTV]

@@hbitproject Would you like to recreate a small art nouveau building? That would certainly be very interesting for your viewers. Just google "Düsselschlösschen". I can give you the detailed plans of it.

[@X22GJP]

I believe everything I "see" because whatever my brain tells me I see, that's what I see, whether you see it or not.

[@meadow-maker]

it would have been a better compliment if you'd spoken to the author rather to the other viewers. I, for one, don't need someone else to tell me what to think.

[@mattburridge9452]

This being 18 hours of work is absolutely mind blowing

[@lucaslugao]

Coming from an engineering background, my introduction to 3D design was through CAD. This has made transitioning to Blender quite challenging as my deep-rooted need for precision often holds me back. I feel compelled to ensure everything is perfectly aligned and sized. The act of approximating values, whether it's distances or angles, consistently feels like a hurdle.

[@izzak6189]

Old comment but this is funny to me because i have work full time now in 3d but i come from a standard 3d modelling background and its a challenge for me to make sure scales and blockouts are precise instead of making it "look good" as fast as possible

[@geo.33]

This is exactly what I felt when I started to work with blender but once you get over being perfect you start working faster and faster!

[@fxsrider]

I built aircraft for 32 years. For General Dynamics and Boeing. F-16's and 747's. Anytime I'm working on a project at home, I'm as anal as can be when it comes to perfection with 2X4 lumber. I'm also very concerned with how much weight I may be adding to my house when I work on it. Drives me crazy and I'm the one doing it. Nuts!! Old habits die hard..

[@hirschgrotte]

Your channel is a GOD SENT since I'm currently working on a gothic cathedral and I can learn so much from your clean modeling techniques, they are beyond superb!! You are also a great educator, very pleasant voice, amazing channel overall. I will make sure to mention your channel in case I ever finish my project 😂 Thank you so much for sharing!!

[@hbitproject]

I'm very happy to hear that! thank you so much :)

[@bencronshaw8666]

This is insane how easy you make this look, I'm struggling to make a simple house. But watching this helps so much

[@21barnuska]

The end result was incredibly beautiful, congratulations on your talent, keep it up! 🤍🤍

[@hbitproject]

Thank you very much 🙏

[@bschropps]

I don’t know anything about digital art or Blender but this was absolutely fascinating and impressive. I would love to see more videos of recreating famous buildings!

[@annekedebruyn7797]

I have paid hundreds of dollars for a single courses that weren't edited and explained THIS well.

[@Ladsas]

It's truly fascinating to watch these creators on KZbin work their magic with Blender. They make the intricate process seem so effortless, even though in reality, it's incredibly complex and often feels almost impossible to achieve the simplest results. And don't even get me started on the nodes - that's a whole different level of challenge! Kudos to their dedication and talent in navigating such a powerful tool.

[@Lighthawk28]

I really love how precise you are with explaining what you are doing and don't jump over anything, also the editing really good and easy to follow along. Thanks for the video!

[@guilhermesouza8833]

Finding your channel was one of the best things that happened to me this year. Incredible job!

[@hbitproject]

Thank you! I love to hear the content is useful

[@SirKoolHFace]

Beautiful man I could literally see this being I'm a videogame

[@ruuii3d]

The detailing and simplicity in the instructions, you are real hero of saving time, pls make a tutorial on how to make and use textures please

[@guvalflores]

Amazing work. And thank you for the "Shear Tool" tip. That is going to save me tons of work hours!

[@hbitproject]

It's really helpful I agree!

[@kuritho5903]

Gosh, your models are absolutely gorgeous. You are such a good educator, always knowing how to mention which steps and methods to take to achieve a desired effect without becoming pedantic or over-elaborative. Bravo!!

[@hbitproject]

Thank you! I really appreciate it 🙏

[@neolinksrv]

Genio do Blender! Não é pra qualquer um chegar nesse nível!!

[@sneezar]

Im not a blender modeler but seeing your videos and process shows good techniques that are cross platform. Great work

[@hbitproject]

That's very nice to hear. Thanks!

[@Rockberries]

Dude you're a true master, the way you think and adapt reality to a 3D process is straight up genius / mad scientist level. Please keep up the Blender architecture tutorials!

[@hbitproject]

You're too kind 🙏 thanks!

[@mup8661]

This was the first video Ive seen from him and that move at 5:30-5:55 solidified his genius for me. Insanity how how uses the tools to achieve the exact outcome he needs.

[@JohanMood]

As a engineer who mainly works in Solidworks I'm both amazed and horrified

[@hbitproject]

I hope these balance out still ok 😄

[@ultraboy99x]

Absolutely awesome!

[@frankparis9408]

A good free interpretation.

[@TheJackalxy]

That is beyond impressive, truly a masterpiece! Btw maybe not everyone know but you can do 11:36 directly in blender, there's a texture brick node that's higly customizable so you don't have to use other software

[@caleb7257]

What a joy of a video to stumble upon. Incredible work, both the cathedral and the video itself!

[@bro-rubro]

i can't express how thankfull i'm to have found you, can't wait to binge watch it all

[@bitlong4669]

Holy moly, it looks so real it is real lol.

[@fedfed96]

What a watch. Vey solid work, brother

[@robertsontirado4478]

Awesome, I’m doing the same thing with NYC Art Deco buildings for my animated film.

[@steveneltringham1478]

That's the difference between me and a professional. You have a sub.

[@herkulesii.3898]

so many times I wanted to try to do something like this, yes you do too I love you. I follow you and like you.

[@kazes]

I did not know the Shear tool, thanks for that

[@neuvatn]

Whoa... I am so glad I stumbled upon this channel!

[@NezarecSh]

I feel like I shouldn't be allowed to watch these videos for free... the quality and the amount of things to learn from is insane. Also, the workflow is definitely the best I've ever seen 🥺

[@KaiserSaucy]

Found your tutorial! Thanks so much for posting!

[@dkaloger5720]

Amazing . Very good example of a 3d modeling workflow . I feel like having spent some extra time on color grading and lighting could have made it even better

[@dplus1105]

That is insane!!!

[@graphguy]

Amazing work

[@khalatelomara]

Impressive ❤ I watched the whole video and yet it is one of the rare videos that talk about real architecture in blender

[@clyarts]

truly top tier creator right here

[@rafasulinski4721]

Great job, I like how some things are nicely cheated saving much time. And love the material setup. It's simple but those multiple layers make it look incredibly believable. By the way 9:15 I recently realised that for b&w texture maps you can pack 3 of them into one texture using r,g,b channels. That might be useful in the shader editor as it makes less mess and it's memory efficient. Can't wait for another video!

[@hbitproject]

Thank you! The RGB tip is super useful, I'll need to cover that in a future video

[@hectorthespector]

Outstanding modeling, beautiful as always 👏

[@trebilicious]

Thank you so much for creating quality architectural modeling content. I just discovered your channel and your videos have been a huge source of inspiration to me. Keep up the good work! Cheers!

[@reenko]

BRAVISSIMO!!!

[@akashthesky3366]

I'm working on a temple rn, hope this helps, my biggest enemy is the nodes it gets so complicated i don't even know what to do, btw great video 👍

[@tomsonpl123]

Man this is one of the most amazing tutorials I have been seen for the las months on YT. I'm so grateful for sheering, cheers mate for your amazon job 🍺🍺🍺

[@hbitproject]

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! 🙏😊

[@roebnhuy]

I love all of your videos

[@Igoreshkin]

Outstanding work. It's looks so simple in this video, it show how you mastering and craft your skills.

[@HungNguyen-kp8yu]

TRULY A MASTER

[@finn3721]

currently modeling a city hall so this is great reference, especially the texturing part. thanks a lot.

[@finn3721]

also, doing this in 18 hours is insane. im surely busy for more than 30 now.

[@ebaroni]

My jaw just fell down. Great video! Thanks a lot.

[@apatsa_basiteni]

Amazing wotk of art.

[@kaydevious]

I just started watching Blender tutorials recently and your videos are torture, they make me want to skip ahead in the learning process so badly. lol Really great work and thanks for the videos, sir. Hopefully one day I can get to your level 🙂

[@hbitproject]

Thank you, I hope these videos can give you a few extra techinques to work with!

[@pauljarvis5384]

Wow, great video 👍👍

[@pberezin]

Brrilliant!

[@traste_imundo]

beautiful 👍👍

[@JohnMalcolm]

You've earned yourself another subscriber

[@myriadrhea]

Impressive! you showed more progress in the first 8minutes of the video than I often see in videos over 40minutes long that are time lapsing! Looking forward to future projects like this if you choose to make it a recurring practice 🙂

[@sayedally4521]

awesome work man!

[@J_Stronsky]

Brilliant work. The big difference between the two scenes is white balance. I'm a noob at blender (especially compared to yourself) but decent at photo editing, so no clue how to do this in Blender, but I'd have exported and sorted the colour in photoshop - adjusted the angle/skew of the image, add some magenta tint + warmer WB, add a colour overlay(s) to get the colours right at the different brightness levels & then maybe used Hue/Sat to adjust the greens in the image to match. But that's all photo trickery, getting the underlying mesh to look as 1:1 in the time you did was brilliant.

[@hbitproject]

Hello and thank you for your feedback! I definitely need to learn how to manage colours properly and how to post process in general. Do you have any particular tip/resource you can share in that regard?

[@J_Stronsky]

@@hbitproject not sure about a 3D workflow - same boat as you there. Your colour matching of objects/textures within your own scene is great, I want to be clear that the tinting difference is only between your final image overall and the original. In this instance if it's just the 2D image at the end; I'd render and export to PNG, send that to Photoshop (GIMP if you don't like Adobe). For tutorials I'd recommend Piximperfect, but there are so many for colour correction and matching. This is a poor solution for general post process though - it's clunky if you're doing more than one image and no good for anything animated. What we'd want is global scene colour correction or maybe a HDRI that casts the correctly tinted light onto the scene - something to save retexturing objects one by one - but as a said, I'm a noob haha.

[@yols5]

God level. Impeccable! Love seeing more videos about architecture modeling!

[@albertorey5662]

FIRE! 🔥🔥

[@VillaAroldi]

Amazing work! I know nothing about blender etc but this was amazing to watch!

[@aliceus3315]

You deserve a lot of respect. You are a gem bro

[@skeletonking4119]

Thank you!!!!!!!

[@StuartWoodwardJP]

That’s a really wonderful result and a really educational explanation.

[@hbitproject]

Thank you! 🙏

[@samdavepollard]

extraordinary ♥

[@naeemulhoque1777]

super good

[@KofteciRamiz]

Incredible work!!! Please share videos more often!!🤩

[@sureztv5836]

Awesome

[@handlehaggler]

imagine i just found out about blender a week ago and am so proud i made a donut then there's this guy. omg man. could i check the file out somehow?

[@brahimdogan160]

Congrats. Bro it's super from beginning to final..👏👏👏

[@moritzmaisky4989]

Incredible work! It reminds me of the Black Mirror game series (2 and 3).

[@emmapearl6859]

wonderful videos - thank you so much - que bello, grazie mille ^^

[@intgr]

I salute you. This is next level dedication and skill.

[@hbitproject]

Thank you 🙏

[@federrr7]

What you are doing is really beautiful. I dedicate myself to art and illustration, and I have been using Blender recently because there are a lot of things I would like to add to my scenes, such as backgrounds and buildings, which are hard to achieve in digital painting. 3D is the solution, but it is extremely challenging. I would like to do the same as you one day. Yes probably I should use photo or AI for this, would be easier and faster but I really appreciate the crafting and the process of doing.

[@albanr8028]

Congratulation !

[@PolyRidge]

for the windows, you can enable keep original and it will just add the wireframe on top of the existing mesh, then just use material offset to have the glass and wireframe as different materials, but the same object.

[@hbitproject]

Thank you for the tip 👍

[@NinoDefoq]

This is incredible!

[@victordhalluin2167]

impressive !! great work with combining nodes !

[@benjaminesqueda2100]

This is amazing. Your skills are master level. Thank you so much for sharing! I want to apply this to Mesoamerican cultures. Greetings from Yucatán, México.

[@AllieThePrettyGator]

i cant wait to see the west towers and possibly the bells because hardly anyone explored that part of the cathedral

[@damirces]

Just amazing man. Thank you very much for sharing.

[@theslashr]

Pazzesco! 👏

[@ianmyles9025]

simply stunning - am hugely impressed !

[@ErisedMediaCo]

This was amazing! So impressive what you were able to do, especially with only 10 days!

[@basselassi5355]

Goat, love it.

[@lizardltd]

I wish that blender added a way to input only one of the dimensions, like the height something should be, and at what height should it start, and the model will automatically centre all of the other positions, and scale it proportionally from the lower point to the higher point. That would make sense for a lot of things and will remove some hassle. Would also be great if it worked for collections, or selections. Any Blender/addon devs, free idea that would save a lot of time for some people!!

[@alexjanaqi]

Insane

[@pier-oliviermartel713]

Man that was awsome !!! You should do more videos like this I would literally live on you channel haha ;) Great job !

[@fsalad]

Was very interesting❤

[@michaelsmusicinstruments9980]

great job, the textures are incredibly good!, you are a role model for blender architecture visualization, respect!

[@deepeshsubhash7915]

Superb😍

[@rileyb3d]

Solid video! Clear sections and great work explaining your process and methodology. Subscribed!

[@hbitproject]

[@real2late]

8:00 you could use the weld modifier to make this non destructive

[@hbitproject]

True that, thanks for the tip!

[@sankyu3950]

Amazing work of art for such amount of time!! Any techniques or idea to create leaf ornament especially seen on the exterior of the Louvre museum?

[@dfghj241]

wonderful, thank you very much!
