Top 5 Forger Tips

[@neshiah4747]

I was confounded by Forger until I watched your intro to Forger Parts 1 & 2. Now I’m using it every day 🙂

[@SouthernGFX]

That’s awesome. We are doing a full tutorial after we do the Nomad course

[@sampaskin9128]

I've been using forger for about a year now, you have just opened my eyes to so many things I didnt know. Thank you very much such an amazing video

[@sr7711]

I have been using forger for a while now, with no experience of 3D modeling before that. I really enjoy every video you make. Please keep it going!

[@SouthernGFX]

Thanks Linus. There wll be new videos every Friday so watch out for them! 😀

[@DarylNotDead]

Came here for nomad exporting to Procreate…. Stayed for forger which I had had for months and didn’t like. Until these line of videos. Cheers man. ❤️✌🏻❤️

[@brianalinderman691]

Thank you so much!! I am completely new to forger and 3D models and general and was trying to figure out how to get more mesh points as I was stretched thin in some parts!

[@Aran887]

Gracias por los consejos. Muy útiles como siempre.

[@Tecboy08]

Wow what a powerful tool! Thank you for sharing your tips. I am a newbie. Just found out about this software. Keep up the great work. Great characters also!

[@eirpa]

Thanks so much! Really helpful

[@SouthernGFX]

It's a pleasure and I am glad it helped.

[@theagilemaker]

That was really helpful, thanks for sharing! Watching the remeshing section was especially beneficial for me, personally. I’ve just started with Forger, and watching you model and use immediately helped me learn quite a lot about how to even just use a blocking process...

[@SouthernGFX]

That’s great to hear. I’m all about the basics not specific software so if you know about the technology underneath you can usually learn anything new quite quickly. Nomad and Forger are pretty much the same technology. I would like to review all Ipad sculpting software soon.

[@Tecboy08]

@@SouthernGFX i am a freehand artist that's also worked with CoralDraw, Adobe Photoshop, Gimp, Krita, FrontPage (back in the day) Blender. I am Currently using Nomad & Forger. I absolutely love Nomad! Forger took a lil more time to get use to. I'm really glad you're here. I learn a lot from your tuts! Looking forward to more learning. Thank you again sir!

[@christopherparnell5701]

Great info, Thanks for the video.

[@boyDonavin]

This was crazy informative! Thank you so much for this. I'd already run into all of the problems you mentioned here and just learned how to fix them in less than a half hour😅 KZbin is an incredible place.

[@tedebaer1]

Thank you!

[@pfchan9052]

Thank you so much for this tips! I’m starting up with 3D and I was confused as to how to get started with this app. The Remesh tip has saved me from some interesting polygon experiments I’ve made lol!

[@SouthernGFX]

Glad it has helped!

[@quincyndekwe]

Is there a way to wrap an image onto and image?

[@SouthernGFX]

No not yet. You can make UVs but you can’t apply the artwork back yet

[@alinerdelav]

Wow I didn't want to use it because couldn't find the remesh! Thanks. BTW I can't seem to find the forger folder on my ipad

[@chriscasc1984]

Thank you very much, this video helped me a lot to understand the functions of 3d modelling!

[@p-cell]

Great tips, I'm starting using the app, thank you. 🙏🏼

[@UncleJessy]

Working on a forger app video. Will be recommending people checkout your channel/video. Great stuff!!

[@SouthernGFX]

Many thanks I really appreciate it.

[@Kolba_Team]

Nice 2 see movies like this one ☝ nice work

[@SouthernGFX]

Many thanks it is great to have the feedback.

[@jrmartinez1839]

AWESOME . THANK YOU !!!!

[@SouthernGFX]

You're welcome!

[@Charles_Bro-son]

That helps a lot, thank you!

[@SouthernGFX]

That's great to hear that. It is a pleasure!

[@jascermerced8635]

Lovely stuff! Im waiting for my 2nd gen pencil to arrive and Im going to purchase the app right after. I was wondering if forger has any keyboard functions (ie shortcuts).

[@kuyajibs5248]

Hello SouthernGFX how can I move the sidebar to the right? Like yours. I’m also left handed. Thanks so much.

[@SouthernGFX]

Preference>controls>left handed. And you can just drag the tool bars around with your finger

[@kuyajibs5248]

@@SouthernGFX wow!!! Big help thanks a lot SouthernGFX!! Alright! :)

[@julianteal617]

How did you make you model move? Can you animate the models moving like that on Forger?

[@endrehth]

This is great thanks! this is very much a hobby for me but I'm curious, is there any professional work using Forger? or are you always going to be expected to use something like Zbrush or blender ?

[@michaelrees7596]

how do you get your custom ui? thanks for sharing!

[@konami584]

thanks brother. appreciate :)

[@SouthernGFX]

You are very welcome, thanks for commenting.

[@fishington]

Video on making stamps or tips?

[@LannasMissingLink]

Are you able to project high poly detail onto low poly models, like in zbrush?

[@Zeeq-s1d]

What size was it? I’m having hard hearing what size of the canvas it was?

[@Taematoe]

I'm really confused the stamp tool does nothing on my forger program

[@BarPBarPkoyanee]

Will it run smoothly on ipad 6th gen?

[@SouthernGFX]

I believe so. All our tutorials are done on a 2018 Ipad Pro so not the latest version. I will ask Stephan the developer for you.

[@izzydrycow]

Is there any way to view the geometry lines?

[@izzydrycow]

Nvm he answered my question! Praise the lord

[@AA-salehbazyad]

Thanks for the great information but i have question dose it effect badly on the sculpture if i do remesh many time during my work or it is okay ? Thanks

[@SouthernGFX]

Remesh loads at the start then once you have your design locked stop using it.

[@rustonmcdermott1817]

Can you animate on it or just sculpt

[@SouthernGFX]

Just sculpt, paint and use layers as pose morphs

[@A.J.Interactive]

Are layers exportable?

[@MobileTechGaming]

Love this, your videos help alot! By the way are you using the ipad pro 2020 (6gb) or are you on a previous version. Just wondering if it makes a huge difference over the 2017 or 2018 ipad pro's 4gb ram.

[@SouthernGFX]

Still on a 4gig but ordered a 6. I’ll keep both for testing

[@arttutsfromhell6217]

Mickey Mouse in the reference images? Watch out for lawyers. Lol

[@SouthernGFX]

All good I believe under their fair use policy. However! Having a picture of the Mouse on your iPad during a video where you don’t even use it doesn’t even fall under the ‘term’ usage. I was involved in a cease and desist case once with some StarWars imagery (a font) that a student had used. All ended well but it’s not pleasant at the time. A Disney character's name or image can be used without a license if it is a fair use. "Fair use" is a term that broadly refers to using the image in a limited manner that promotes freedom of expression. There is no set list of fair uses under the law, but the most common fair uses are parody, criticism, teaching, and transformative use. The degree of use is also considered. For example, use of a 15-second clip from a Disney movie as part of a critique of the movie might be fair use, but a one-hour clip used in the same manner probably would not be.

[@SouthernGFX]

I must had a Disney fetish as someone else pointed that I have a goofy image in another library. What the hell is wrong with me lol

[@SuperHugoTron]

Hello sir how are you, i am new to ipad and had no idea a 3d modeler was an available tool to have on here, so i downloaded forger i went to bed at 5 am watching your tutorials and came up with something i like. My question is: does forger let you view external assets and include them in to your works? Thanks in advance, liked and subbed!

[@SouthernGFX]

Thats fantastic, you can export your models into an .obj format which can be used in everything even photoshop.

[@uwu7150]

this feels more natural watching in 1.25 speed

[@SouthernGFX]

Because I speak too slowly?

[@uwu7150]

@@SouthernGFX no 🥺

[@umut5614]

I tried 5th tips multiple times but it does not work like it is. My new brushes already there but not behaving like the your tool. I tried 256x256 and 512x512 kanvas size but result is the same. What did i wrong?

[@SouthernGFX]

I’ll take a look for you

[@pumpion9199]
