Making slightly better concrete in Blender - Tutorial

fr dude grows up lmao

[@randomcctvcamera8137]

bro the two year difference between his first and most recent vid is crazy lmao

[@raphael9104]

In the next video he will have Corpes’s voice XD

[@1vEverybody]

Legit just watched the Lego tutorial from a year ago and it’s crazy

[@stirrcrazy2704]

I’ve been learning this software for almost 3 years and it took me until today to understand the purpose of “Project from View (Bounds)”

[@Derny.]

I like your new format, where you just press record. It has a very authentic effect and represents good how you approach specific things (live trying out and so on...). I love it, can't wait to see more!

[@landgrenwilliam]

Thanks!

[@GibbsonTV]

nice tutorial, I always lowered the bump strength instead of the distance, so ill try that out. 5:32 you can also just create a second bump node, and then plug in the normal from the first bump node into the normal socket of the second bump node. then the second bump node just goes into the principled shader but your method also does give more control

[@GraggleSimpson]

Get out of here

[@bigsili]

dude.. everything you make is just- beautiful

[@liamcheetham9333]

Might I recommend using a decimate modifier instead of combining by distance? it allows you to actually define the poly count you want, preserves the shape better, and doesn't cause as much of the black tris you were getting. Great tutorial btw, was not expecting to stay for the whole thing but you made it interesting.

[@durf_gamz3620]

i watched your 2 year comparison and clicked this and your voice is WAY different. nice tutorial too

[@fisherman10101]

you could rebake the texture (with a normal map as well) then apply it to a low poly wall

[@CreativeDrone]

You're back dude! I love your stuff so much! thanks for the tutorial i finished my donut recently and im loving your channel! you're such an inspiration!

[@christophercarrera7486]

This video makes me soo happy and angry cause of how simple this actually is and absolutely blew my mind thank you thank you thank you

[@DerFinder]

I always wondered about distance and strength and yeah you're right it looks way better. Finally understanding that xD

[@gangsterroyal7720]

YOU ARE THE ONE WHICH I WANT FROM 2 HOURE ON SCROLLING AND FINDING

[@chrisgoart6335]

You need to set your image node (with the bump texture) from "sRGB" to "non color" - this would be a first step for better display of your bump texture.

[@immanismjr5606]

Also I think that the Specular slider is not really PBR suited. As all things are equally reflective in theory, so only roughness should be used.

[@jaychoi2812]

Ur insane, one day maybe I’ll have that strong mindset of yours

[@ahmadkhansial]

Finally another video from husky voiced William Landgren 🙆🏽‍♂️

[@SuperIceteapeach]

Wouldnt it be better to use "unsubdivide" instead of "merge by distance"? you would remain quads instead of tris. Nice video as always, got some new things to setup materials

[@euclois]

tris are better for this occasion

[@m3d_arts]

excellent technique, I will also propose it on my channel.

[@guywithasuitcase8432]

*shows up* *talks about concrete how to make good concrete* *talks about concrete being hard* *refuses to elaborate further* *leaves*

[@michaelcooney9368]

I actually kinda keep my bump strength at 75-80%. It softens it a bit, but helps simulate a bit of light bounce back on the virtual bumpyness. A real rough concrete or rock might be better with that diffuse shader with roughness. Something about jagged surfaces being non lambertian or something.

[@HyewonSeo_WON]

Thanks for sharing this super cool tip!!

[@I_am_Spartacus]

This is great, cheers Will! You've got a new fan here... I enjoy videos like this, just a simple how to make things look better...

[@xzombiefx]

Ty for this! Realy happy to see you back! :D

[@chj.schwarz]

quick & dirty but useful, thanks mate.

[@greentokyo]

Have you tried the Adaptive Subdivision option under the Advanced tab? I think it helps with the polygon count not getting out of control.

[@landgrenwilliam]

Yeah but I really don’t like the feature. It’s very unstable and slow with lack of control. I prefer this way as most of it is precomputed.

[@duh7726]

Hey, I am on the very beginning of my blender journey would you care to share your setup especially your monitor. It would really help. Keep up the good work

[@lemming77gode]

Thanks for the vid! Can you explain why you didn’t chose to go the pbr route here and instead artistically authored the Specular map? Wouldn’t it better to only use the roughness map for that? (apart from maybe the cavities)

[@wheatlysparble7900]

You're back!!

[@samk9632]

excellent material study

[@lordmanok9995]

HOLY MOLY THAT SUBDIVISION OF 9!!! I cant do this anymore...

[@7piece7]

Can you please make a tutorial on how to render properly cause my builds are always so pixel like and have no realism and don’t know how to fix it

[@aljd3441]

this is exactly what I needed

[@johann-space]

awesome tutorial, really helpful, thanks!

[@exitsalidaexit]

Woah voice got deeper

[@tomasis7]

I appreciate it ! Want more tutorials ...I'm learning gemotry nodes and texturing

[@spydergs07]

Since some of the faces were black, were the normals flipped after the optimization? I check the face orientation to see if any were flipped, if so then just recalcuate normals.

[@syo942]

Hey Man, glad ur back , I've been following your works for a while and am wondering what are your pc specs ?

[@yawnster7274]

9:44 default dude's packing some real stuff back there

[@pgetheelderscrollsturkiye68]

Welcome back

[@SylkieDev]

Maybe I'm just used to a different workflow, but why didn't you bake your high-res mesh to a lower mesh, or use the multires modifier to keep the poly count high in the final render?

[@titouansom]

he is back 😳

[@ttbb6637]

man thats insane! thank you so much!

[@emiliorios8799]

You have amazing work. What computer do you use? What’s your set up

[@JonathanK13]

I like ur new voice 💪😁, btw I've been waiting for new tutorial

[@jonashcgartist1948]

I think using adaptive subdiv would make this more efficient

[@thespider-man2596]

Do you do commissions? I'm looking for people to hire to work on an ambitious spider-man fan film project.

Everyone telling him things he could do differently or alternate methods. Bruh. He’s using his own method to get concrete the way he knows and likes.

[@gameadhyanstudio1410]

Big fan sir

[@captain3d697]

But why dont you use adaptive subdiv. with displacement

[@chek7522]

Hello , can I know your pc characteristics?

[@Short_Shots]

How do you add lens flare to your projects?

[@brickmasterstudios447]

so what does the subdivision do in this instance?

[@ObscureHedgehog]

2:08 Why did you change it to CPU rendering?

[@LFPAnimations]

Why even bother with the displacement on a concrete wall? Seems like you would get a very similar result by just increasing the roughness (decreasing reflectivity) and making the bump/normal more intense.

[@fetti_dama]

man what's this screen size?

[@eclairesrhapsodos5496]

Why not decimate?

[@felixongley2953]

Omg ur voice!

[@johntnguyen1976]

Judging by the change in your voice since your last tutorial…you’re now married with kids, working on a doctorate in art, and working for Ton Roosendal 🤣. Great looking concrete tho, for sure 🙌

[@xaxuelx7987]

Informative however if you scripted this and broke down each step it would be much easier to digest... Cheers
