[@saikatazad5631]

these topo studies are gold. Thanks, man.

[@masterxeon1001]

Glad you like them!

[@mateuszwodarski4073]

They rly are :D

[@MarkBTomlinson]

Love them redirects and the toons were stompin'

[@ojonasdev]

Hey,Can you make a time mark on the part that you thought was cool?I'm learning english and 3d. But i don't get it the "..toons were stomping" part

[@darnassiannightsaber7835]

@@ojonasdev i know this is late but im assuming this expression refers to the music in the video :) (toons = tunes (songs, music), stomping = usually means crushing onto a surface but in this case refers to the crushing beats in the background) hopefully the comment author corrects me if im wrong :D

[@mateuszwodarski4073]

Good one man, i cant wait to watch others from topostudy series. Love it.

@@masterxeon1001 wow! You are incredibly productive!

[@niclascravaack3347]

Hi I have a questione about that spline at 0:23 how do you get this to align your vertices along it so that you get this good curves? And which Addons would you recommend to a beginner in Blender?

[@godwinyo5206]

Ctrl+Shift+Alt+S

[@tomh.6261]

f'n gorgeous. Love that topo.

[@masterxeon1001]

it was a struggle!

[@1DInciner]

Organic surface modeling! Be careful, this is a one way journey to 100% quads baroque animations. We all started with this... Also nice to see Mira tools by Geraskin, named after his daughter. Nice addon's pack.

[@masterxeon1001]

I was thinking about trying one in a segment. It is the apex of geo.

[@darnassiannightsaber7835]

[@xxspecterxx]

Amazing my favorite to model is gun parts

[@stephenmackenzie9016]

A man who fears not the triangle 👍🏻

[@masterxeon1001]

no fear no geo

[@evilotis01]

wow, this is super helpful. i could never quite get gun grips looking right, and i'm delighted to learn from this video a) where i was going wrong and b) that, reassuringly, my approach was largely correct-i was just missing certain steps/techniques, like insetting the textured hand-grippy bits before pushing them inwards. hurrah!

[@masterxeon1001]

get in there!

[@nightblade178]

No voiceover? I love when masterxeon talks :(

[@masterxeon1001]

timelapse is my end goal!

[@mateuszwodarski4073]

Love commentary too :d

[@1DInciner]

When modellers talks during timelapses it sounds like a hamster, so we prefer to replace that with music. A dirty secret behind the post production. JK)

[@clemenceau1196]

What tool do you use for curving those vertices to the reference at 0:28 ?

[@NightingalePenguin]

Me: doing meshes not too optimal, moving many single vertexes, pressing many ctrl+z, wish to whatch, how professionals are working Professionals: doing same job, but very quickly 😄 Thanks for tutor)

[@treymoon346]

Can anyone tell me what tool is being used at 0:21 to “curve” the verts smoothly like that?? Currently I use bevels to achieve curved edges but this looks like it would give me WAY more control.

[@londfon3233]

How do I get these smooth edges? I tried everything and it doesn't seem to work properly.

[@silencebhardwaj8377]

How did you make the curve with 4 verts, in 00:21, it seems like 2 blue dots appeared, I'm struggling to work with curves, plz help mn 😭

[@muhammadhaseeb4398]

On 0:26 How these edges are vertices are getting aligned using path?

[@den_temny]

vertex curve guide what is addon that?

[@ThisPhotoshopGuy]

Hey man, is there a chance you could explain what exactly you do at 3:00? How do you bevel the shape like you do after the Solidify Modifier? Would appreciate it, thanks for your work!

[@LeoD.J]

One month later lol. If you're still wondering what he did, he simply added a sub division modifer; you can see it on the right side. He used a shortcut which iirc is ctrl + (number). The number you click will add that amount of sub divisions. For example: ctrl + 3 will automatically add a subd modifier with 3 levels of sub division. Hope this helps

[@LeoD.J]

And most of Blenders shortcuts are muscle memory to me at this point so I don't exactly remember them too well, but if ctrl + (number) doesn't work, try ctrl + shift + (number). It should be one of those 2

[@mamadvanguard620]

Whats the add-on you move vertecies with drawing

How did you do the thing where you clicked and moved the vertices to where you clicked

I have a permanent one buts its temperamental. Sorry about that.

it's way too flat, especially front side of it. it should be more round imo.
