Geometry nodes are basically the reason I gave up on learning blender, it's like learning mandarin. But when I see your gumroad I realise it is a blessing that you genuinely make it accessible for anyone willing to at least try expressing ideas.

[@erik....]

You don't have to learn Geometry Nodes, other than the basics like scattering sugar on a donut. There are many more things you need to learn first, like basic modeling, lighting and so on.

[@hybridroid]

@@erik.... You're right, I believe the frustration comes from simply being too impatient to reach a remarkable and worthy level while using the coolest addons combined w/ basic knowledges

[@TerenceKearns]

stick with it. I struggled with geo nodes. you just gotta find good tutorials.

[@pianoatthirty]

Unless you find that kind of stuff genuinely interesting, it is a huge waste of time. Basic art skills will always be more important - shape, color, proportions, rhythm, etc. I would rather pay to use someone’s node creation than waste precious time learning a coding language someone else has a fun time working in. I look at it like music production - I don’t need to learn how to code a custom reverb algorithm to “sound unique”, i’ll just find a good reverb plug-in and use that creatively. The end result will always be the most important thing, doesn’t matter how you get there.

[@erik....]

@@pianoatthirty I wouldn't say it's a waste of time. There are many simple every day things you can do so much quicker in GN than regular keyframing. But there's a difference between basic understanding which will take a few hours for someone who already knows Blender, and advanced use.

[@user-mu8ui7ke5f]

Bro you're literally beyond normal human to figure this out. Respect!

[@SpaghettiMarinarable]

I already bought it, and now I feel like a got a great deal. Everyone, pay this guy. He earned it.

[@w1zardbeard101]

It is totally beyond my comprehension how you even came up with this. Genuinely amazing

[@AlphaXDE]

Dude, i just wanted to let you know that this is probably one of the most isnpiring things i've ever seen done until now with Geometry nodes, Shaders, Math etc. Following you since i've found your painterly shader and was wondering if you would try something more complex with it. Glad i was right :)! Really amazing stuff! This solution is far superior to the older one, but the older one has probably set you up to create this. Now... we just need a printer from geometry nodes for real life!

[@Tradigital]

Thanks for the support! I appreciate your kind words. Cheers!

[@manubiondo5713]

This is truly one of the most creative things I've seen in a blender video. The fact that each stroke follows the form is truly remarkable. Maybe I'm over reacting a bit, but I've been using blender for roughly six months and I've never thought you could do something like that

[@GaryParris]

yeah i was doing something similar last year in order to create my own, congratulations :)

[@CatchThesePaws]

Oh that’s crazy! I know a guy who worked on the dam keeper! I should share this video with him ^^

[@pierreseaumaire6988]

Just bought it Thank you man ! So many effort put in that !

[@ToriKo_]

I have no idea about any aspect of this, but some of the results shown in this video are crazy

[@ethanalloway5946]

Amazing work! It’s so great to see someone revise and polish something to this level. Can’t wait to try it!

[@xavi4829]

Guess I am gonna watch this video again and again when I learning blender and one day I may know hows the process works, anyway this is inspiring stuff.

[@J0esus]

Looks sick. Very excited to try it out

[@tamicoker]

This new wave of blender creators is inspiring, looking forward to see more from you

[@sanjaux]

100/10 All the power is in those nodes and you managed to connect all the pieces!

[@acloudyskye]

hey i know you

[@sanjaux]

@@acloudyskye hey I know *you*

[@acloudyskye]

@@sanjaux 😱

[@raptorboss6688]

I remember seeing your original video last year and it was already mind blowing to me, this is just actual insanity!! Amazing stuff.

[@mpwzzz]

The advanced shader's oil paint look at the end of the video is amazing and how the brush-strokes' direction emulates the way an oil painting would get painted in real-life is epic. Well done!

[@gladnox]

Loved to see you progress through this project! And really happy that you managed to solve all the problems that I've been bashing my head against the wall for months. I just recently tried to return to my painterly shader tests when I saw what you made. Incredible stuff man! Chapeau!

[@runitseren1968]

So glad that you decided to keep on with your tutorials. You're definitly good with that and more than that, there is a lot of valuable contribution toward blender/3D community. So without any pressure, but keep it on!

[@gursimratsinghganda]

really amazin thing man.. thank you for diving so deep into it

[@MrMargaretScratcher]

Bought this a while back but only just had a look at it - amazing work!

[@krysidian]

Wow, that is simply incredible. Thank you so much for breaking all this down. I've been tinkering with painterly effects for so long but never have I come even close to this level. That Occlusion trick for the outlines is so useful!

[@sajjadabouei6721]

WOW, this is another level

[@StwdDesign]

oh my respect for taking the time to do this

[@samg3456]

this is outstanding man. i'm looking into doing a painterly look using cycles and an external compositor, and the stroke flow technique you're doing is like nothing I've ever seen. All of it looks incredible.

[@LoubnaKHIDER-yz7ni]

this is pure genius ! Thanks for the tutorial and for sharing all your hours of work this is mindblowing

[@bigscheesy4982]

Awesome job, as someone who loves painting this has a very convincing effect, I wouldn't bat an eye looking at these. Great stuff.

[@PanewsONE]

Just wanna add I watched until the end and the flexibility you get from your advanced setup is actually really cool so yeah, really cool stuff

[@aspermypreviousemail5907]

This is one of the most impressive things I've seen done in geonodes. Way simpler setups already look like magic to me, but this is something else. Outstanding procedure and outstanding result!

[@PrivacyEnt]

I was expecting to see yet another kuwahara filter video when I clicked with a hope of very basic addition to it in post... I was so wrong, such an incredible node tree and concept! love it so much!

[@alexzandriathegood]

I'm so excited about your mission for this channel. As an artist, I see this tutorial as a major step forward for the Blender community. I am hopeful you will share more about applying these tools to high resolution meshes.

[@RogueAstro85]

This is genius!! I love that you show the frustration you experienced and showed your research and colaboration. So many assume that people who do amazing things just know how to do them and don't consider the work that goes into it. You wanted an effect and you didn't stop until you figured it out. Your perseverance is incredible!

[@iwein]

I've found this super interesting as someone with 3d blender skills (mostly for animating, but recently made my first toonshader based on the "lightning boy studio" toonshader) but a way stronger preference for the 2d animated look, I've been looking more towards greace pencil for that, but this makes 3d mesh really exciting again!

[@tle90]

This is pure wizardry. The fact that you worked all this out is insane to me!

[@lena5325]

I've never used blender, but I am a painter, and this looks amazing. You really understand how painters think to create this stunning effect 👏

[@AbyssalSoda]

I'm happy being a beginner with nodes so long as I can create beautiful stuff, this shits amazing and took a degree of skill I can't comprehend

[@GUYX10]

wow. im not even a blender user and im blown away by this. thanks for the awesome tutorial

[@mortalgar]

wow this is sick

[@SZMIDEL]

mind blown...just wow

[@xpez9694]

the first attempt reminds me of the ingenious cloud rig that was used in the Paths of Hate from Platige Image..from 2010-11

[@cannedcorn-vt1rz]

I saw this getting popular, what a great way to make things more efficient. Never thought that you can bind a camera onto a plain to act as a "filter"

[@daeuslamb8191]

This would make a really fun movie

[@leobatt3337]

I'm shocked. this is probably the best tutorial ive seen out there. I dont make comments usually but cant avoid telling you how mind blowing this is and that you would be kind enough to share your findings in such detail. Thank you!

[@Piccoclolo]

This is crazy good

[@Omobsterrrr]

This is such a game changer. ive been working at somthing similar in geometry nodes but got nowhere near as complex and succesful. honestly this is so sick 🔥🔥🔥

[@mopozuJIko]

bless the algorithm for recommending this masterpiece to me!

[@grahamconsidine8229]

I love it! thanks for the breakdown

[@timdub_cg]

Thanks for the explanation and nodes setup. It will be very interesting to play with them.

[@zeeyannosse]

wooouuoooOAOOo! bravi bravo ! i have to pause the video at 3:03 ! and gives you a huge thumbs up congratulations for the " KEEP ON THE GOOD VIBES TRYING TO ACHIVE SOMETHING THAT IS THERE ALMOST THERE, NOT YET THERE YOU GOT IT BRO ALMOST HUM... YES ! THAT'S IT !" felicitations !!! can't wait to experiment with it ! merci! yann

[@Erindale]

So jealous you got the joy of making this work so good! Amazing to witness your journey to this point 😁

[@Tradigital]

Definitely couldn’t have done it without your help!

[@TheTheSusssu]

This is insanely cool! Thank you for sharing.

[@vthrash7832]

You are a Genius!! i cannot comprehend any of the technical aspects that you explain in the video, but to me it looks like you made magic, something that to me seems impossible. I appreciate the effort and talent that you put into this shader, i'll give it a try!!! Thanks so much!

[@GrandThriftAuto]

Outstanding! As someone who’s still at the frustrated stage doing even quite basic things in Blender, I have huge respect for your skills *and* perseverance 👍👍👍

[@bazebaze2657]

Absolutely crazy and amazing

[@LenzGraphics]

This is absolutely beautiful!

[@MichaelHickman3D]

This is phenomenal!!!! Wonderful job!!!

[@johnathanhodges9366]

Bro i immediately started smiling at the beginning of the vid

[@1zymn1]

This is the best method I've been able to find. It is also the most complicated, it makes buying it for $10 all the more tempting.

[@collincolson1614]

Nice! Just got the new update a few days ago, can't wait to watch this.

[@chocobovonhauske8518]

whoa, I lack words to express how I feel right now

[@slightwave]

you did it, because you are a genius, with this approach you would have painted it with paints :)

[@paulstocker9525]

This is erindale-level stuff! Awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[@blakeXYZ]

I love your genuine attitude & how you formatted this video, you shared your journey and gave us some awesome insights into Geo Nodes. The result is terrific. The memes sprinkled throughout is a great touch. Thanks, Alan! Whatcha plan to explore next? Cheers!

this is absolutely insane i am so happy my algorithm brought me here

[@seleven07]

Looks like the style of Across the spiderverse credit scene THAT'S SICK

[@Sondelll]

Gotta appreciate the absolute mountain of work it takes figuring this type of stuff out. I've spent years of time into tinkering in 3D software over the years, and still this is some of the most impressive and inspiring work I've seen. Now best let that hair you ripped out grow back for a bit

[@ryanoconnor7957]

I'm impressed that @9:03 it can even do Van Gogh style

[@jojosize4552]

This is so awesome and complex, You literally make nodes to work like dozen of painters making polish movie "Twój Vincent". And in realtime! That's sick ;)

[@lawrencetyrpa]

Wow, this looks really impressive!

Looks awesome

[@3D_PROO]

Thats really great work!

[@ezzahanam5326]

thank god i found your channel

wow... i commend your determination, im looking into creating a new art style thats simple enought to use for 3d animations, on an amateurs artists laptop. this video has really shown me i have alot of experimentation to do and stress to deal with lol. well done! and thanks for sharing vid

[@MarkArandjus]

I've been in artist in all kinds of digital software my whole life, but for some reason nodes never appealed to me, so I am just amazed by this! Wow, truly.

[@naephyyyy]

just randomly stumbled upon this and wanted to tell you that is some amazing work! I dont even use blender as a main software but this makes me want to haha. Wish we had something like this for engines like unreal

[@JohnFerrier]

Wow... Just wow! That was amazing work

You are an absolute genius. If I could give you 10 thumbs up, I would!

[@AngryApple]

A while back I tried to create a black and white pencil scribble look with freestyle lines and the compositer, it worked quite well but the scene had to be done in a specific way, especially the lighting. I get so many new ideas how I could improve on this idea by seeing this

[@aaronmarkstaller]

Share it

[@AngryApple]

@@aaronmarkstaller always wanted to but its quite a mess and I have to get it right and cleaned up to be shareable

[@erionmema1]

this basically was a fantasy for me growing up, the idea of "wat if I can make a movie by painting each frame to perfection so it blends in to the next frame" but realised 3d mixed with some filter was probably the way to go, but never imagined that it would become a reality some day

[@danm3d]

This was frickin' cool!

[@With-faze]

I love this! I have been looking for something like this for quite a while. I found this channel about 8 months ago. Sadly. I am not able to buy anything in dollars nor do I have an advanced experience with geometry nodes, but I have learned a lot from your videos. Thank you.
