Nomad Sculpt: Beginner's Tutorial

[@YuLikePie]

14:05 For anyone who’s following on a newer version of nomad, I clicked Lock & Radius under sculpt and clicked Sub on the left hand side, then did the same drag from the middle of the hourglass to get the same effect

Ok I’m in SHOCK by how good and informative this video was. THANK YOU! I’m new to nomad sculpt and this video gave me courage to start playing with the app.❤

[@ghostbgone]

glad to see an updated tutorial to nomad, watch the other one with the book it was a great video still to learn

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Cheers! It was due, the software has changed quite a bit! I'll need to do this every year!

[@GuardianSpirits13]

As someone who tried to learn Blender a few months ago with limited success, I am so excited to learn Nomad sculpt and you are such a great teacher! You explained every step so well, I am confident that I will not get lost with your instruction :)

[@dennishansbury6362]

I have been struggling with Nomad since downloading it a week ago. I last modeled with 3D Studio Max in 2005! Your video just made all the issues I’m having make so much sense! Can’t wait to watch the rest of your series and see if this very old dog can learn new tricks! 😂

[@MazingerZX]

Thank you for the tip on doing details of the skull, REALLY helped to understand how to get clean details.

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Yay, happy to hear the video was helpful ☺️

[@nulsh331]

This is great! Many thanks! I just picked up Nomad Sculpt. I have used Blender and 3DS Max in the past, but I am not familiar with Nomad's interface. I watched your tutorial with my breakfast, and it really helped me out! Cheers!

[@NineTailedOtaku]

I just watched 2 hours of skillshare tutorials and didn't get anywhere. I'm 5 minutes in and this is already so much more helpful thank you so much!

It sounds like a young person’s voice . Whether I am right or wrong, it is extremely clear and well organised. A potential first class teacher.

[@SmallRobotStudio]

You are too kind! Regarding being young, that depends on the POV. My parents think I am, but my nieces see me as old 😝

[@dopapier]

Ok. So you’re making a business of it. Great! I’m going to be bold (and possibly totally wrong). I’d say 13, perhaps male but your fluency, attention to detail and speed of demonstration and delivery are amongst the best I have ever seen. Your nieces must be toddlers 😂

[@dopapier]

No. Now I think female. Oh I don’t know. I give up. Whatever, I think you have a helluva future potential.

[@missham]

As a beginner, this was the best Nomad tutorial I've watched! Thank you so much it was really helpful! Oh also, your voice is also very comforting

[@Verttigo1982]

Great introduction to Nomad!

[@Floweenka]

I had no idea yesterday that something like that exists.. I was amazed how easy was to understand everything, thanks a lot

[@OhSixy]

Thanks for this, it showed a lot of great concepts in a clear and concise way. Also the way you say 'lathe' is super cute

[@oleww50]

Excellent video thanks! I really with the was an align tool or auto align center or similar in Nomad. Also a quick “alt/shift” button like adobe illustrator or similar for the smooth or a chosen brush/tool etc.

[@Vi11anueva_]

This was soo helpful! Amazing video! I just got a tablet and I’m excited to start making my own models!

Nomad Sculpt ver 1.76 Hexanomad , I dont have the "Stroke type" to make the hour glass to deflate properly , thank you for the reponse great learning video

[@boblacy1599]

Help did you ever find the solution

[@Shrimp_Insurance]

Awesome tutorial! Btw "lathe" is pronounced lay-th, I assume it's called that because it creates objects similar to what a wood lathe can make

Did I miss something around 9:30? Where did the reference image come from?

You can select the Mirror group in the Scene menu and drag it where you need it.

Hi!! With the new Nomad Sculpt ver 1.76, I dont have the "Stroke type" in the "Inflate" tools to click the "Grab- dynamic radius". May I know where can I find it? Thank you so much!!

[@boblacy1599]

Help did you ever find the solution

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Same menu, the options have been divided in several tabs

[@wkghrs]

Flatten appears to raise the entire surface almost like it's pulling it up. How is it being done where it actually flattens the surface?

[@SmallRobotStudio]

On the side buttons (under the intensity/size sliders) tap on Sub that will reverse the operation pushing down. All tools can be reversed with the same button

[@wkghrs]

[@KnotHead1008]

Can you please tell me what screen recording you’re using?

[@SmallRobotStudio]

I use Apowermirror to mirror the iPad to my PC and then OBS to record the screen.

[@airsoftmeister94]

Mine only has half of those slider options for the resolution.. Is there a setting I can use to change mine?

[@ccherry.berryy]

This looks perfect for starting to make 3D models for 3D printing but I just want to know if it crashes often? Because using my iPad not many programs have crashed, but this feels like it would take up a lot of space so I just wanted to know

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Nomad is super stable. I use a first gen iPad Pro (so it's like from 2017ish). If you ever do an operation that might crash it you will usually get warnings.

[@ponkoponko_gh0st913]

very helpful just one problem, I cant sculpt when view points are activated. I have to delete them when I want to sculpt. any help?

[@tossu]

i have a question! does making the auto save at 5 minutes or lower affect any performance on nomad sculpt? another question, when you exit the app for lets say 4~ minutes and you come back to it, does the app reload and, thus, not saving your progress? (a solution to this would be saving your sculpt before leaving the app but i am a super forgetful person)

[@baylaD8]

Do you think this software would be useful for modeling cookie cutters to 3D print? Trying to research the product but mostly see character development and more decorative pieces! Thank you! ❤

[@kashiaher7783]

I think it could be! But you may find TinkerCad more useful for that. It is completely free too!

[@leyalaatasto9096]

If it's 3D, you can definitely make it! I'm learning how to use Nomad to design flat-backed pieces for my jewelry :)

[@ame367]

Cookie cutters sounds like a very sharp, rigid object that something like Blender might be better suited for - however I am sure it’s possible in this software as well. I may just say that because I have used Blender much more and could see it being done in there quite easily.

[@Flornholio]

Use CAD for that if it’s just gonna be outlines

[@JC20XX]

11:07 "la-thee" really threw me lol. Great tutorial though, thank you.

[@bhavyaaa003]

I'm learning these without knowing the use of these models...just because it's fun...but can anybody tell me the correct use of these models please 🥺

[@Mrlemonsyoutube]

You can design your models and then 3d print them, that’s how I’m gonna use this app

[@Shrimp_Insurance]

They can also be used for video games, 3D animations, 3D architectural renders, product renders, etc. etc.

[@hoanchau4024]

What kind of ipad are you using...

Very nice video ❤ just got an ipad 9th generation , is this app worth it on my device , or should I upgrade before buying nomad ?😢

[@slugnasty2395]

I just recently purchased an iPad Air 5th gen and an Apple Pen Gen 2. I've been playing around with Nomad and Procreate. I really appreciate your videos. Would you be interested in uploading a video that goes over each setting? (You may already have one, but I just discovered your channel.)

Why my flatten tool flats more than in video

[@kyliedesire7425]

Dear Erika. Arent You forgetting to make the Splines round at the ends? Ps. I have made my first humble model of candle and wax made from 5 objects. I needed to make high topology for nice brushing the wax. Unfortunately I need to render each object separatedly, because it crashes when I do 3000x3000 transparent render in PBR with golden full metal material. I tried 2000x2000 too...the same...crashes. i do have alot of space and very fast Android phone, so its not the phone. Do You know any way to stop Nomad from crashing? Thank You. Kylie Desire

[@SmallRobotStudio]

The performance of Nomad has to do with the devices RAM. I'd suggest to decimate your model to optimize the poly count while maintaining the shapes. You can do this on the Topology menu under the Decimation tab. Try reducing by 25% increments and test the render

[@kyliedesire7425]

@@SmallRobotStudio Thanks alot, it helped! ♡ I wonder, if Voxel Remeshing of candle wax will make better shape with smaller RAM thus vertices count?

[@SmallRobotStudio]

@@kyliedesire7425 it could be helpful but you might lose details in the process. Decimate will make sure your shapes are preserved reducing polycount were it is not needed and keeping it where details are. Voxel will give you a uniform resolution
