[@tonialcala886]

Hello Pablo, I am very interested in UZG, my problem is the language, I need to understand well what you teach. With the subtitles on you tube I manage well. I will be happy to subscribe to the course as soon as you add the subtitles. In the meantime I will continue watching your instructive videos. Do not stop. ​

If you are looking for English subtitles, we do have them already in the UZG ;)

[@tonialcala886]

xe que bo, no pares

[@hamidrezaei341]

Pablo lhe admiro. Sou Brasileiro

[@binyamengdawork]

Thank you For this amazing tutorials pablo. I always have this question of how to see a wire frame of subdiv 1 while being at subdiv 3 or any higher subdivision? It happens randomly but never intentionally.

[@stonestef]

Turn Polyframe On when you are in subdiv 1 and then press D to go to the higher subdiv. It will keep showing the subdiv 1 wire frame.

[@binyamengdawork]

@@stonestefThank you🙏

[@clay-sculpting]
