[@Maxwell_Kenway]

Thanks Erika. This is a great tutorial. For me as a beginner, with 0 to no knowledge about anatomy, this is still easy to follow and I’m happy with the outcome.

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Super happy to hear that :) Thanks for the support

[@vampirexev]

Thank you SO much for these videos. I’ve learned so much about this program in 3 days thanks to your videos and I’m totally going to be doing all sculpting in Nomad now!

[@SmallRobotStudio]

I'm excited to hear that! Looking forward to seeing your creations!

[@notDanielClancy]

Erika thank you so much for these tutorials. It only took one or two for me to get going from scratch with Nomad sculpt as a complete beginner to the iPad and the app Nomad itself - now I'm creating awesome models of my own in a really surprisingly short amount of time. Many Thanks from Sydney, Australia.

[@SmallRobotStudio]

You are too kind Daniel, thanks for such a kind message. I am happy to hear the videos have been helpful so you can create your own models ❤ If you ever share them on social media feel free to tag me, I'd love to see them!

[@Notho-gaming]

you are amazing, literally learnt this program all thanks to your help!!

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Aww you are too kind!!

[@johndeggendorf7826]

Thanks, Erica…this one belongs in the “essential viewing” file. 🤔 Right off the bat, your use of the project tool is going into my bag of tricks…hope you don’t mind. ✊☕️🎩🎩🎩🙏

[@SmallRobotStudio]

I'm honored John! Please feel free to use any of the tricks I show, that's why I put them on the videos :) As always thanks soo so much 😊😊😊

[@nunyabusiness9043NunyaBiz]

I agree. I have been making it harder than it had to be, plus I didn’t realize that we could postpone validation (of the objects, not of ourselves, which should never be put off for very long if at all). And your delivery is so pleasant and assuring. Thanks.

[@kikalashnikov]

amazing. i'm new to NS, and videos like this are very appreciated !

Genial, voy a intentar hacerlo. ojalá y puedas hacer una versión en español.

[@mica4977]

Useful tutorial & I love the disclaimer at the end about the editing making it seem easier than it might be, particularly for beginners. My second day experimenting with Nomad & other than some minor hiccups (such as not understanding the behavioral change of certain tools within certain scenarios) it has been very smooth & easy to work with. Am enjoying the results of my first figure so far after following this tutorial! Thank you for the content Erika

Very nice.

Incredible! So easy to follow along and very concise explanations. Thanks so much for another useful Nomad tutorial. I feel like giving up in Nomad a lot but this makes it feel easy 🤌

[@AThr-nj6zp]

What did you do to make your custom brush different from the default brush?

[@brianstefans9108]

I love your videos and have rewatched a few as I train myself on Nomad. I started with Blender but Nomad is much easier and more fun and will help me when I try to model again in Blender. Thanks for your kind and amusing personality and the well-organized tutorials. I couldn't tell you were Mexican by your accent, I thought you were central European; must be that New Zealand thing. I have many Mexican friends and go there frequently but still don't speak Spanish! One question: you usually start with the default sphere, which is really a cube that has been rounded, rather than adding a new sphere like I have seen in other videos. Is there a reason for that? Is it both the same? I've also started retopologizing with Cozy Blanket but I haven't tried to animate a face yet. But you are very helpful there, too!

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Hey! Sorry I didn't catch your comment before. You are very kind, thank you for the lovely words :) Unless I need a perfect sphere I am happy with the rounded cube, especially for organic sculpts. Sometimes I use it just because it's there but I will also often get rid of it and use the primitive that is more convenient. Hope this answers your question ☺️

[@tyrannosaurus_rex4226]

Can you please share the reference image, which you used. Thanks

[@starryproductionsinc.131]

If it's alright with Ms. Casab, how about try a screenshot? 0:28 should be the right time to pause, make the window full-screen, and screenshot to use later

[@SmallRobotStudio]

We usually share the reference through Patreon. But it's true, we cannot control what screenshots you peeps decide to take :)

[@spaghettidoodle3611]

For some reason the mesh blur button isn’t working for me, is there another way to taper a box? Also why is your mask already blurry when you first select it?

[@ninaisnl]

for some reason, my sphere keeps showing triangular poly’s instead of squares, when i try to use the gizmo for ex the jaw, it doesn’t looks smooth at all either, does someone know what affects this??

[@GILI1230]

Hey Erica, your video is super helpful!!! I have a question that I couldn’t find answer for.. you can upload a 3D object to nomad and work with it? Hope you’ll know the answer for that ! Thank u for doin what you’re doin ❤

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Glad to hear you liked the video! You can def import models in the Project menu. The best bet is OBJ format

[@f_maylon5525]

Espectacular muy muy genial, que posibilidad hay de hacerlo en español ya quiero ver un personaje echo por ti así 🥺🥺🥺🥺

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Thanks a lot mate! Truly appreciate it.

[@chkdsito]

Mas tutoriales en español 🥺

[@vizeath]

Anyone else experiencing issues with their saved views? I don't know why mine keeps going crazy... And sometimes when I click "move" or "drag" from the sculpting tools, it moves the entire object to a whole new location instead of sculpting it... 😅😅 Maybe I'll try again tomorrow... Btw, can you make tutorials of how to make clothes/accessories? Let's say you already have the entire naked 3D model, with face, hair, and everything like a complete character. Just needs clothes & accessories.

[@kyb9623]

yes! I appreciate the tutorial, but I can't follow it at a reasonable speed because I can't get the camera views to work

[@vizeath]

@@kyb9623Hi, I think I found out the reason why... When you add a view, the nomad sculpt created a camera and treat is like an object inside the Scene menu. So when you need to add a second view, make sure that the first camera object is not selected...

[@aliazizabadi6726]

Hello, I had a question, do you upload android tutorials too? I watched some of your nomad videos, and I found some abilities that are in the pc version, but not in android ( as I know) So can I ask you to make some tutorials for android version too? Thanks a lot

[@SmallRobotStudio]

All of the videos we upload for Nomad are recorded from iOS, the features and workflow between iOS and Android are identical however. There is no PC version of Nomad.

[@aliazizabadi6726]

@@SmallRobotStudio oh,OK, thanks for answering

[@jordiejubilee836]

@@SmallRobotStudio What version are you using? I brought mine recently and it doesn't have some features like yours does, locking views or being able to switch easily from perspective with the click of a button. Mine doesn't even have that option on my lower left toolbar

[@SmallRobotStudio]

@@jordiejubilee836 The video was recorded in Nomad 1.65. Some items of the inte interface might be different like the bottom menu. Use the Display & Interface menu to configurate it (:

[@totoysarmiento8952]

Erika what is the minimum requirements for tablet ,do I need higher specs tablet? Thanks for this tutorials😄❤️❤️

[@SmallRobotStudio]

Sorry for the late reply. I'd recommend asking this question directly to the developer in the Nomad Forums or Discord. He'll be able to guide you!

[@MyAramil]

I have a samsung galaxy tab a8 2022 edition and it works pretty well. Only really lagging when I have a lot of stuff going on in the scene.

[@jfhiramia606]

How to put articulate for this body?

[@SmallRobotStudio]

It's not possible in Nomad. You'd need to retopologize and rig. Blender can do both
