I avoided Blender for years cause I was scared about all the things to learn. I've tried so many tutorials and none of them could get me into it. Then I've found your video. You are crazy talented with teaching. Everything is clear, pertinent, easy to get and at the end of this evening I sculpted my very first head. I am impressed, really. Definitely subscribed and so grateful that this time KZbin advised me the right video.

[@007gollum8]

I might be late to the party here, but this is probably the best beginner tutorial on sculpting I've seen. The simple fact that this tutorial focuses on the technical side of sculpting and actually shows the tools that are neccessary to get started is incredibly helpful. For some reason, so many tutorials on sculpting only tell us what we're supposed to be doing, without actually telling us how to do it (the old "draw the rest of the owl" problem). Now that you've shown the tools to get started, I can finally follow the tutorials that focus on the artistic process behind sculpting and learn that. Great tutorial to get started!

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks so much! I'm glad it helped.

[@albertobueno7805]

As someone on the verge of throwing the computer out of the window by being unable to figure out Blender sculpting properly, thank you so much!! Specially as I tend to go "ugh" with 30+ minute videos and skip a lot, since many people aren't able to find a good pace for their tutorials, not repeating themselves a lot, but giving information at an understandable speed. I didn't really feel the need to move forward on the explanations, so that's a great sign!

Glad the video helped. Thanks for watching!

[@DrMerle-gw4wj]

There are a lot of people on KZbin who are experts at Blender but are totally useless when it comes to making tutorials.

Years later this tutorial is still useful and relevant. I guess I'll echo what other commenters have said on this video, your teachings are clear and straight to the point digestible and understandable. If it's not too much to ask, if you read this, could you make an update tutorial in 3.0 with a nice looking character? Something not too complicated, but to get you used to using the tools And that you can build off of to other projects if you want to do so on your own. Thank you so much for this.

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks! yeah I'd like to make an updated sculpting for beginners tutorial.

[@fyrea]

Notes to future self: - Shift+C puts cursor back to center (3:27) - Shift+A brings up the add mesh menu (3:31) - Radius changes brush size, Strength changes brush intensity. - Brush settings by default appear both above the viewport and on the right-side menu, and allow you to change the brush's various values. - Can drag out the left-side brush toolbar to expand it, allows for seeing the brush name. - M1 to add, CTRL+M1 to subtract - Draw brush & clay strip (+autosmooth 0.1 or softness) brush seem to both be useful standard brushes. - Inflate Brush seems fairly similar to Blob, maybe might be more subtle? - Blob Brush is fairly self-explanatory, adds/subtracts blobs of volume. Seems like it could be good for defining rounder shapes. Not entirely sure what the difference is between this and Inflate. - Crease Brush seems to be good for creases (obviously) as well as sharper additions/subtractions than the draw brush - Scrape Brush can be used for defining planes of the face or other distinct planes - Grab Brush seems to be super versatile, literally just 3d liquefy. - Snake Hook pulls out thin strands, seems super useful in specific scenarios. - Pose Brush is used to adjust parts of a sculpt, seems useful for character sculpting. Jank if used in places it shouldn't be used in. - Smooth Brush is self-explanatory. - Top-right dropdown can be used to change "MatCaps", affecting how an object is rendered. Ryan recommends searching out additional tutorials on importing/creating new MatCaps. - Mask Brush can stop other brushes from affecting a defined area. Can be inverted by using CTRL+i/I, allowing extrusion. ALT+M removes the mask. - Dyntopo & Remesh are both used as ways to provide more mesh to edit when you're running out. Remesh is manual while Dyntopo is automatic, but both have their own benefits. - Destruction modifier can be used to downscale the size of models while conserving visual detail. - Scaling a shape will lead to the sculpting being scaled as well. This can be fixed by applying the scaling via CTRL+A -> Apply -> Scale. Overall, fairly useful tutorial.

14:30 just a quick tip, if we use F key to change brush size then normally we have to LMB to confirm. We can also customize it in the preference (keymap) by turning on 'confirm on release' so we don't need to LMB to confirm , just HOLD the F key and release it after we change the brush.

This tutorial was exactlyyyy what I needed for the project I'm working on so thank you for this amazing and absolutely helpful tutorial! Just a question though, if I were to model a full character body, would I be able to decimate, rig, and then use the character for animation?

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for watching! Yes, you could do that, although I would recommend retopologizing the object after you sculpt it. Then you can do the texturing, rigging and then animate it. proper retopology will make the object move and rotate better when its being rigged and animated.

[@ianfavreau9776]

0:50 Anyone reading this - Don't let this dissuade you from sculpting! I've never used a pen or wacom tablet, but it just takes a little time to use the mouse. It's similar to asking someone what kind of pen or paintbrush they use. Its all about making the right strokes and less about what utensil makes those strokes. You can also use the stabilize stroke option to make the stroke lag behind a little to give you more even, flowing forms.

This is really great, clear explanation and the fundamental tools of Blender sculpting. Kamvas 20 arrived yesterday and now learning my way around the interface. Thanks for the insight and guidance.

[@RyanKingArt]

Great to hear that! Thanks for watching!

Being left handed, I've been struggling to learn (or get accustomed to) using my new tablet. I was immediately relieved to see you are also left handed and have the same setup. The only thing I've added is CTRL+Z as my second pen button so I can undo quickly.

[@davidfoster7015]

easily the most informative tutorial I've seen. Great pacing it was easy to follow along without having to constantly pause and replay. Which version of blender are you using?

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks! For this tutorial I was using Blender 2.91

[@cringekiddo]

I thought I was good at sculpting… I was delusional. I found this video and I have gotten SO much better! Thanks a ton, man! You covered like everything.

[@RyanKingArt]

glad it helped!

[@AlexoStripes]

Holy cow, you are super good at teaching! This taught me so much! I got excited with the new stuff I learned XD

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks!

AMAZING VIDEO MAN one of the BEST intro videos I've ever watched for anything EVER!!!!

[@RyanKingArt]

Haha, Thanks so much : )

[@chicao.do.blender]

dude, you're effing amazing, i watched more than 2 hours of video editing tutorials in your channel only today and not only did i learn new stuff(and i thought i knew the basics) but ALSO i hyped up and watched your sculpting tutorial(i have never considered sculpting beforehand) you are a sight for sore eyes, and i will gladly take this knowledge and give it back to people(maybe in my own mother language) i dream of making/supporting a tutorial like bob ross did it for painting but for content creation instead(i also program in unity)

[@RyanKingArt]

Very cool! I'm glad you enjoyed my tutorials!

[@JayAnAm]

Hey nice one again Ryan - but you should update my screencast keys addon, new version just looks better:-) Keep it up m8!

[@RyanKingArt]

Hello Jayanam! Thanks for checking out my video. Can you give me a link to your screencast Keys addon so that I can update it? I don't remember where I found it online.

[@RyanKingArt]

Never mind. I found it though your channel. Thanks for creating the addon. It works great!

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks! Sometimes people have asked what Screencast keys I use. So next time they ask I will send them this Link. Thanks again!

[@4krll]

best tutorial for a beginner, thx!

[@RyanKingArt]

Glad it was helpful!

[@vantablacknl]

when Im done with my model, is there a way to (select) outline the eyes on my model so I can add emission later on them only and not the whole mesh, like to only manually select the area and disassociate it from the rest of the model so I could apply texture on it only

[@RyanKingArt]

Yes you can do that. First add a basic material to the model. Then, Tab into edit mode and select the area that you want to add the new material to. Then add a new material in the material slot, and press New, to add a new material. Then press the assign button in edit mode. The selected area will then have the material that was selected. Hope this helps.

[@vantablacknl]

@@RyanKingArt WOW this helped me a ton, took me a minute to figure what's going on, thank you so much for the reply this is what I love to see from creators giving feedback and helping around!

[@vonranz3200]

I dont comment a lot but today I will because your tutorial is so helpful and crystal clear. Thank you so much!!

[@RyanKingArt]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your comment and thanks for watching.

[@pixelpsychologist]

Thank you so much, Ryan, what a nice tutorial! I used to sculpt a bit in Blender back when it was only introduced but didn't take it very far. Now, years later, and with v3.x I thought many things would have changed but it's basically ZBrush! Time to get back sculpting!

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks for watching!

[@MrRed-yj5jq]

12:09 i like how you made it look like a head crab

[@RyanKingArt]

Haha, Yeah.

[@Monty72]

I’ve been looking desperately to find out how to make it mirror my strokes for better symmetry, how do I turn it on?

[@RyanKingArt]

On the top right ish of the screen, there are X Y and Z buttons. Turn the X on and it should mirror your sculpt.

[@MrShroombot]

Just bought a tablet. I suck but I'm having fun!

[@RyanKingArt]

That's the important thing! Having fun. Very important, especially at the beginning. I sucked at sculpting as well at first. Lol. Just keep on practicing, and you will improve! : )

[@KegAndKrow]

This is the best video i have seen for sculpting for beginners. Thanks.

[@RyanKingArt]

Welcome!

[@britishthought4018]

This is the best introduction I have ever seen for sculpting.
