[@DT3D_PRINT]

Just installed this so I can make some 3D printed characters. Your vids are great. You're like the Bob Ross of Nomad Sculpting. Chilled voice and very informative.

[@HamsaWay]

Thank for all the tips, greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷

[@esCodepl]

nice stuff. i love organized work style. what U just showed changes model appearance at once and all gets much easier. thanks!

[@DonLow]

This is great! I will always come back to this if I forget one thing or two.

[@isacienfuegos9210]

Thank you! i started with one of your Skillshare classes and this one has come so handy!

[@00DeeHam00]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! Your videos are helping me become a better sculpter day by day!

[@ValorArc_Designs]

These are outstanding, thank you for taking the time to makes these videos.

[@AluminiumPanda6]

great video man! I love the content you put out, it's really helping me make sense of Nomad.

[@Swizl3r]

Awesome!!! Setting up a default BG for sure. Thank you

[@pandaengine]

Thanks for this video! I played around with the app a lot, but you show the nicest tips and tricks!

[@sodablower]

Aha!! I FINALLY found the rounded edge video 🥳🤪🥳 Been looking for ages for this. Phew! 😙💨

[@jufreir1998]

Can you make a video showing all your settings on nomad?

[@thewhitneyrichmond]

This is incredible. I’ve learned so much from you

[@mixitupwithmagic]

nice video! you can also smooth out the edges but increasing subdivision and lowering density before you validate too

[@timecop808]

Brilliant Dave! Thank you so much.

[@ProdbearUK]

That was a great run through

[@drugfreedave]

Huh? 🤔

[@ProdbearUK]

@@drugfreedave sorry that wasn’t very clear was it. I watched this through last night and it helped me get a handle on Nomad. Thanks :-)

[@drugfreedave]

I think I read it too fast as “that was a great run though” as if we were at the end of the road! 😅- glad it was helpful! Thanks for swinging by, I’ll be making many more like this! 💯🙌🏾

[@Studio8Worx]

Awesome n Generous as always...50%what I know in NOMAD is bcoz of DAVE.

[@Ghiền_anime_wibu]

Thanks so much. It's clear and easy to understand

[@tranism]

Amazing tips Dave. Thank you.

[@sirvazo1633]

Great tut as always 👍

[@fulv_uk]

Great tutorial as always. You are the best. Thank you

[@TaeKwonMoe]

lol....I have that batman statue, and flash and superman. can't wait to do this tutorial!

[@costabrava60]

Muchas gracias!!!! Bajé la app y tiene muchas herramientas y opciones. La encuentro mucho más complicada que Procreate pero estoy fascinada con todo lo que se puede hacer. Tu video me mostró muchas cosas interesantes. 👏👏👏👏👏

[@jmgalaxytab2325]

No existe programa de esculpido más intuitivo / facil de uso, pero tiene tantas posibilidades q lo hace más "complicado". Cosas q me costaban meses años atras, ahora cuestan tan solo unas horas. Comprate el programa, por 15 dolares me lo compré de inmediato, es irrisorio ese precio, las actualizaciones son gratis y ese programa es tan bueno q no te arrepentirás nunca. Si erés serio en querer esculpir digitalmente, conseguite una tableta con stilus q detecta presión (Samsung con stilus "Wacom" o un iPad), y comprate Nomad. Tengo un Samsung Ultra con pantalla de 14 pulgadas q compré para hacer arte digital, y me compré Nomad. Es el mejor programa de esculpido q he usado hasta ahora.

[@salocarrillo4344]

Great tutorial. Thanks!!

[@t33na1]

Really helpful, thank you. My only gripe is not with you, it’s the fact that I apparently have a different release of Nomad, as it has a few things different, things missing or in different places. This means I have to stop the video to google where to find things. Eg I couldn’t for the life of me work out how to do soft shadows, as the slider you used just doesn’t exist on mine. Very frustrating. (Again, nothing you’ve done, it’s when apps get new versions and updates, really infuriates me!)

[@drugfreedave]

Yeah it’s tricky, Nomad sometimes doesn’t update for almost a year and other times (like last month) about 3 times! I try to continue to make new updated vids often! 💯👍🏾

[@Artbyartcreates]

Perfect video! Thanks 💯

[@kikalashnikov]

Sir, you are a king

[@abigailstephens3440]

THANK YOU! My models look so much better 😭

[@Met_aken]

Thank you!

[@appsdecasa]

Use this grade in objects helps to see whats happening when you use voxel etc... thanks.

[@sander1133]

Thank you :)

[@millman927]

fantastic videos, brand new to this, and great to follow along, you sound a lot like Bob Ross the painter, thats a compliment, do you teach?

[@roughedge-machineworks]

Sitting here with headphones and listening and hearing a door open and closes someone rumaging around, stuff is happening - its faint and in the background so i thought it was in my house.. turns out its in the video clip. .. Geebuz making me paranoidm. :D

[@crossfishcreations541]

I hope they add gradients soon

[@iblackGFX7]

I hope they add rigs and bones

[@arr84.design]

Thanks Dave, very usefull indeed to follow your tutorials! May I ask you if the fact of changing the size of a model impact the resolution of this one? I have some truble to know how big or tall do I have to sculpt an object. Or it doesn't matter if I don't want to print it? Thank you

[@mikaelamaverik2167]

I'm on Android and smooth brush doesn't have lock radius. It has dot, grab-dynamic radius, and grab-dynamic intensity.

[@jmgalaxytab2325]

Your voice and manner of speaking sounds like Bob Ross, maybe you should start making happy accidents in 3D to sculpt a landscape in Nomad 😝

[@jasonplaydsyt34]

So true 😂😂😂

[@darkcult99]

👍👍👍

[@arunk1581]

Can we lock the lights position when we use turn table.

[@tomasdolas4880]

I have Nomad Sculpt 1.9 and cant find the lock radius Option

[@didemakbulut2016]

I did same exact thing to smooth painting but not smooth any Color ı dontknow why..

[@ЗаграфоваИрина]

I can't figure out the first brush.. I do everything as in the video, but at the same time my edges are only trimmed, but remain sharp. I tried to remesh it but the edges don't want to do it..

[@drugfreedave]

Check if you have smooth shading turned on; material menu

[@Haydn2613]

How do you make the light symbols in the scene to disappear once you’re done editing them?

[@drugfreedave]

You can go into the light menu above it, uncheck show light icons 👍🏾

[@millman927]

I meant one on one,

[@jufreir1998]

What are your color settings like? Here, when I add gray it never turns out to be the color I want, the color I chose is always much darker. Also, how do I make all my new objects and added backgrounds look white like yours? on mine it's all orange... I'm really getting caught up in this part of the colors, it's very confusing. I've tried several skins and they all go wrong, if I add light yellow, it turns into a really ugly dark yellow... None of them are the real color I choose.

[@drugfreedave]

Check your environment, bottom of the lighting tab. Those will set a tone for how things look. Try using a white sphere and turn the lights and environment off, then add one light at a time. This is how you get to white! 👍🏾

[@Dayns9379992]

I did everything like you, ill get lot of cool information, but… my lighting reflects looks so squared and not smooth like yours, also on perfect smooth subject with 1m + multi resolution;( heeeeeelp

[@drugfreedave]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKjGq5uQpc2LpNU try this?

[@silencedd9690]

you have to check the share radius box under the stoke tab

[@stephanieviolets]

The first tutorial for rounding square edges doesn't work.

[@DNOJ]

I must be missing something… I did that mask after painting and it broke the cube

[@Ponk_80]

Here is what is up, I just started going on a diet, and started talking vitamins, what is up with you?

[@drugfreedave]

That’s fantastic. I’ve been off my diet and snacking more than I should. Im going on a family cruise in a few days, so I’m gonna be stuffed to the gills. At the moment I’m editing a cute little baby ram that I sculpted. Im also stressing, and need to do a few tutorials and videos to schedule while I’m gone. Gotta stay relevant! 💯😁

[@Ponk_80]

@@drugfreedaveit looks like you have a lot going on, I hope it doesn’t become too stressful, thanks for taking the time to reply on my bit cheeky comment 😅 I really like your down to ground way that you talk in your videos, it’s so nice and relaxing to listen to. Thanks for making all these wonderful videos.
