Thanks for watching!

[@coletosh3683]

Thank you guys,, keep up the great work

[@Malte_Paulsen]

so sick! you really make me enjoy 3D-Art!

[@rsg3568]

It´s hard to find good tutorial on YT from the beginning to the final result. Thanks for your eforce! And sorry for my english :c xD

[@Greyscalegorilla]

Thanks for watching!

[@olgapichugina62]

Nick! You have the singer's talent! I made an animation with a jellyfish but I can not achieve transparency and luminosity like you. I do not have a HDRI sea bottom map. I was looking for HDRI of the seabed all over the Internet, but alas, I did not find it! You definitely have, I know! Please drop the link to the cards that were used in this lesson! Thank you, Olga!

[@msklaimelaim]

I finally got it! Thanks for lesson!

[@liamterlouw]

Can you recreate this in Redshift or octane?

[@omriash0609]

a long one, i love it :)

[@irakligariba]

nice one. will recommend to my modesign/c4d friends

[@TonioDC79]

Great lesson

[@TonioDC79]

That ending tho, LOL

[@marjannaeimirad7980]

Everything was going well before.I got caught up from the 33rd minute. When you start working with Content Browser. I purchased the material from the link and installed in Plugins. what is it in the tag column?

[@Carmai7]

There was a lot of jelly on this tutorial!

[@lukegraftonnash8357]

The intro music is good

[@MrElectroPunker]

I'm not a poor guy but that pricetag for that lightkitpro is really expensive.. Which I think essential for your tutorials..

[@artkiko4460]

hey, do you guys have a tut on creating a Squid Animated texture?

[@artistdimension]

i work same way animate this single jellyfish .but cloner and random effcetor time hang and slow no work properly how solve .any tutor video pls.copy drag or put in cloner not work properly it sslow and hang

[@jvalal]

Is there a simple way to apply some motion on a loop to a single jellyfish tentacles?

[@rokey454]

nice video and how to do my model

[@jackran3009]

he is just expert in displacer

[@sl8roni134]

this might be a dumb question; I've never used B-splines before and I dont have it on r17, is it a plugin?

[@benbard8004]

Thanks.

[@darkroommedia7413]

Where you get that intro music

[@darkmoonz7697]

show us how to make that head :D in 2:47 .... btw nice tutorial ! and thanks for this channel! LEGEND !

[@Greyscalegorilla]

+der moglii you can find that tutorial in season 1 of Ask GSG Archive. greyscalegorilla.com/downloads/askgsg-season-1-archive/

[@sebastianbenavides5939]

guy, why ma hair grow from my cirlce to the side and not dow? i cant figure it out.. HEELP plisss

[@Tygenja]

I'm loving this tutorial but sadly my computer is too slow once I got about 30 minutes in, which is just at the end of the modelling phase. I'm looking to spend a fair bit on a Mac Pro so I can keep working and learning. Anyone out there who went down the Mac route for 3D and animation?

[@QuackerJack09]

wind speed 5000 => ooouuuuuuuuwwwww!! :D

[@Vico992]

Appreciate the vidéo and particulary the BOOMBOOM annoying all long

[@Imotepth]

one question: Can I do transparent material without reflections somehow? I mean like this yellyfish underwater: previews.123rf.com/images/lilithlita/lilithlita1206/lilithlita120600110/14050707-Moon-jelly-fish-Aurelia-aurita-Taken-at-Red-Sea-Stock-Photo.jpg Both c4d and v-ray material I tryed, added reflection automaticly with refraction and I dont see any option to disable it. Maybe only with SSS, but its not exactly what I want.

[@Imotepth]

Amazing work with deformers

[@Greyscalegorilla]

Patrick is awesome!

[@infynex9398]

But what if i want to animate the jellyfishs ?

[@DonkeySwag2]

good tutorial but at 34:41 how am i meant to get that file?

[@dannielcriss3518]

the jellyfish in my render result gets much dark（black）area，does someone know how to get rid of it？

[@LookItsHard]

How would you do this without the HDR studio?

[@liamterlouw]

Gaming Cat yes

[@CGFUN829]

Pllllllz can u share the scene am hobbiest i like samples pllllzz maan :(((

[@Yuvhe]

please show the result at the end of ur videos :(

[@Greyscalegorilla]

You can usually see the final result at the beginning. Here is where we show it in this video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5LKn3uQqsyBh5Ym6s

[@altberg__]

ok that may be a horrible stupid question. but where is the b-spline. it wont show up here.

[@altberg__]

oh thanks. just figured it out myself :) cheers

[@chr1st0pher]

wtf this is insane

[@MrAdis532]

32:02 ...that yeah...lol

[@HorstEwald]

Jellyfish don't have brains.

[@cimkep8250]

HorstEwald Some people too

[@begummm11]

Yep that is their stomach

[@animationspace8550]

They have nerves though. Brains are kinda just clumped control nerves.

[@pixelasm]

"my safe function is when it chrashes" really? I guess this was a joke on the other hand I do not understand why cinema defaults to not have auto save active ...

[@Crimsonpattyletsplay]

its an option you can turn on, as alot of people blue screen there machines which can ruin them not likely but it can by filling up there hard drive space with illumni files that they dont even know about, it's a safer bet that someone who is doing this stuff seriously will know to turn it on.

[@wikiecocba]

Re upload?

[@Greyscalegorilla]

Yep. We are remastering some of our favorite tutorials for youtube.

[@Ricardo-de9ju]

Nice attempt, but the shading process, what show of horror! Don't do that guys, look at the reference. Not even closer! That's why native renderer should be extinguished form Cinema 4D. Make RS the default.
