I would never have imagined the neck starting as a square plane. The techniques this teaches are awe inspiring. Thank you!

[@deniskhakimov]

I like his engineering approach to making these tutorials :)

[@Klelcken]

I am always excited when I am going to do your tut.... Always sure that i'll learn a new thing in Blender. Thanks tutor.

[@attenurb44]

Amazing! This 4 part tutorial is the best I have seen. Very clear direction, especially for this Newbie/old guy. Until recently I thought 3Ds Max was the top program for me, but not now. Blender has shown it's depth and power - and it is affordable. Keep up the good work. Can't wait till the next one.

[@wmlgaminghd7576]

A friend told me that when starting Blender, you can never miss with tutor4u... after 4 days, I can already follow easily Blender Guru and more quicker "teachers".. but still, with this guy I have already made Pool balls, Soccer ball, Realistic ring, and now Ukulele! Keep up the good work!

[@spottedshadows5056]

This is probably the best tutorial series I have ever done. Big thanks to tutor4u for making this awesome tutorial! Looking forward to seeing what you make in the future!

[@nxght6694]

at 2:40 when i scale on the x axis by 0 it flattens out the faces, but it pushes them inwards to the center of the mesh

[@raulsanchez9258]

Your tips and techniques are so useful.

[@riwajrai]

you are awesome and one of the best teachers on youtube with so much of details that is required to the beginners. However, while learning in 2023 with blender 3.6 its kinda difficulty as the menus and the way they have been placed are different. Anyway I am able to manage looking into other options and playing around. Keeping helping us man.

[@probablynot7611]

when tutor4u dies, he will be a CG legend.

[@GirishManjunathMusic]

He is a CG legend now!

[@StanislavZaburdaev]

May he live long!

[@BobAlbion]

+Stanislav Zaburdaev Tutor4u he can't die he is god he made all of us. But i think it was a practice session when he made me and left quite a few bad verts and I'm sure he didn't recalculate my normal's so I'm a bit screwed up =0

[@fivesix3868]

I hope he does not die soon, though! May God bless him for educating us about this great but advanced and difficult software

[@noise8592]

Dude your videos are amazing and so fun please never stop making these!!!!! They're perfectly paced for me and descriptive enough to understand everything, which is huge for a beginner like me. Keep it up!

[@AlexandreSampaioTheBoss]

It's an amazing work, i really recomend this Tutorial. I'm always excited when I am going to do your tutorials. having a lot of expectations

[@chandrasekhar_vijayalakshmi]

i like the way you teach.I tried some of your blender text tutors .thank you so much tutor

[@jonathan_ball]

Brilliant set of tutorials. Thanks for doing these.

[@PioJak-bf9rr]

Great job. The best tutorial I ever seen. Can you make a Gibson Les Paul or Fender Stratocaster tutorial? It would be awesome.

[@problemimentali]

I can't believe I got this result. Great tutorial

[@asbitola]

best for tutorials

[@petelozzi7298]

Watching your videos is an extraordinary experience. I can only describe it as what it must be like to learn sorcery or spellcasting. Your cadence and tone and manner are mesmerizing and if I was stranded on a desert island all I would need is a PC with your channel and blender on it. Is there some way I can send you some money!?

[@petrajaneinvielleichtmeine198]

It looks very good. I can only repeat myself. Well done. Thank you.

[@galaxypassco8486]

I REALLY LOVE YOUR VIDEOS

[@yarahiko1461]

thank you so much you have the best tutorials in youtube

[@evg.sidenko]

Thanks a lot for this video and tutorial. Your describing is very understandable!

[@raycraighead]

Love your tutorials. Can you explain why you choose NOT to use creases to sharpen edges?

[@LDMTX6]

Great tutorial! You're a great teacher.

[@nmnovice2320]

Very useful techniques. Thank you sir.

[@hherilshah5733]

[@mlifj3521]

[@thomasarnett1087]

[@tilitila88]

Wow, you're amazing.Thank you so much!

[@vaoc2735]

Professional job!!!

[@QuitschisMobileGaming]

could you explain how to make a small cartoon-video ? for example a Minecraft- based intro?

[@iamdaboya5728]

Love these blender vids. Spot of bother though at 17:28 when I press 7 on numpad, the grid divisions stay the same size, they don't become smaller as shown in the video. Help would be greatly appreciated thanks

[@spex357]

14:13 insert cut loop, move it to the end, press G then X followed by 1.26 extends the left edge out by 1.26. If i add a minus sign it extends the right side edge by 1.26 even though the cut loop is at the left side, proportional editing isn't on and I can't think what else my be the problem, any ideas?

[@danAzure]

Same problem. Think I sorted it out. Insert loop. Pull to far left. Hit ENTER. Press G, X and 1.26 and it should work out...

[@camodious]

This worked for me, kind of a huge detail he left out. Good catch!

[@Ryan-kq8mt]

Daniel Faucher thank you soo much

[@TommyKurpowic]

I was stuck on this part for 30 minutes thank you

[@jakhan3067]

THANK YOU FOR THIS TUTORIAL!!! TOTALLY AWESOME. PLEASE DO MORE TUTORIALS - YO DA MAN. SPRINGFIELD VA

[@kokenmillen5415]

Thank you so much for this!

[@rezkel7404]

Remember Kids, turn off your proportional editing when done, or you're in for a bad time

[@ZicajosProductions]

Very true!

[@niemanickurwa]

Even more so for merge verts button.

[@andreaseveso2818]

Hi everybody, i've found this tutorial real immersive and interesting but i've found a strange behaviour at the beginning of the part two. After i select the top vertexes and remove it from the oval when i sligh rotate the view in my blender the y axis is in opposite to the tutorial one. Did someone of you knows if there are settings that i miss ? p.s. i'm using the 2.77a. Thanks in advance to all of you give me some ideas about it.

[@CrazyIdiot1000]

when i try first extrude it goes into opposite direction

[@According2Marcus]

at 2:15 when i try to scale it, the whole thing goes to the right

[@DimeF1]

In many cases (not all), after the whole "Cursor to Center" command, you have to open the Shift+S menu again and select "Cursor to Selected"

[@alexpolusyan3704]

Meercoos please help when press the eye button, the neck doesn't show up

[@울카메롱]

Perfect Tuto!!

[@yvetteconatser9077]

Is there no concern about triangles and ngons? There are triangles at the end of the neck. Is that okay?

[@mike_dex3221]

When you went into render view after you made the nut, my fretboard was not the dark colour, it was the normal wood colour. Why was this? @tutor4u

[@samafiza6133]

Great tutorial! Why my render is so blurred (made with Geforce Gtx 960)?, render samples 1000, but even if I increase samples, it doesn't make any difference. This render is so sharp and clear. Could it be a setting issue?

[@CelestialMeatballs]

check your light setting

[@deniskhakimov]

Did you solve your problem? )

[@rblihovde]

Awesome!

[@happyfish7260]

Amazing

[@SubramanianBalaji]

i wish that you should have mentioned about measurement in the beginning. i setup in mm later i changed to inches now nothing matches. my bad..

[@rajatgupta8339]

at 9:08 when i am try to scale the vertex down, the whole base is getting scaled along with it. please help me.. thank you :)

[@maryamsadiqsadiq9121]

I have the same wood picture as you but when I press rendered view the wood is vey dark almost black but when I press materials the wood is lighter and easier to see. What do I do to see the wood texture in rendered view.

[@radbot1]

have you got your 4 lights set up? It was shown in the previous video.

[@mkfggamer3791]

I was stuck but I figgered it out

[@MorroWolf]

its not unwrapping correctly for me there are areas where the texture is cut and different on the neck. Anyone know how to fix this?

[@Lbmaniak]

Thanks again !

[@OfficialMeep]

11:20 it rotate for my in some fucktup way

[@hai33nb]

i noticed that my cursor does not move with what i select, I always have to move it myself, how can i change this? please help!

[@snowfanatic]

Right to the viewport menu (solid mode, wireframe mode, etc.), there's setting for pivot point. Set this to median point.

[@Blendarling]

ミラーモデファイアを使わないメリットは何ですか？

[@mnvview1084]

25:52 when i click. i don't see body T T how to fix this?

[@billythebullet7447]

Did you do the first video? Where you MAKE the body?

[@michelmichel3866]

bonjour je ne parle pas anglais mais a la minute 2.48 minute comment faire "s ok mais apres ?

[@insignamiadamaregesu8755]

At 2:45 it does not work properly for me. It pushes all the faces into the neck when scaling to zero. I have tried this multiple times with the same result. I cannot get my sides to flatten. I think the reason it moves all the faces to the center of the neck is because the cursor is sitting dead center at the end of the neck. I have no idea how to fix this. Can anyone help?

[@ZicajosProductions]

He doesn't mention this for some reason in his videos.... In many cases (not all), after the whole "Cursor to Center" command, you have to open the Shift+S menu again and select "Cursor to Selected". In your case, it should solve the problem. Once the cursor follows selected, then proceed with the action you were trying to do and see the desired result.

[@insignamiadamaregesu8755]

Thanks for the help guys. I did manage to finish the model but it took several tries using different cursor settings to resolve the problem I was having. It must have taken me 8 hours to complete this model but it looks great! I brought this model into a 3D animation program just to see how huge it was vertice wise. It contains almost 1 million vertices. WOW!

[@ZicajosProductions]

Insignami ad amare Gesu Wow indeed!

[@glorieldeveraux]

I had the same problem, thanx a lot.

[@ggessex]

I had the same problem, thanks for the tip!

[@ScaryBRIT94]

Hey when I get to 1:56 when extruding, it also extrudes the top of the plane, which makes sense so why doesn't it for him?

[@ScaryBRIT94]

+Vegetarian Titan Nvm, I just realised I'm an idiot and the view is from the bottom of the neck :D Isn't perspective fun?

[@devontaworsley]

Same thing happened to me. I was so confused. 😂

[@dang3rk1ll]

wow same happened here just realised it bro :D

[@okamiakira5731]

Shit, me too, I even was searching about normals and stuff like that, damn, Rofl.

[@kristiandiaz5474]

the distances aren't matching up with my scale,

[@CytheriaXylia]

For some reason when I begin to extrude the plane at 1:51, it extrudes as a solid object and I'm not sure why.

[@TheCoolBacon]

same

[@Luke-Sando]

Its is meant to his camera angle is just looking from the bottom

[@waynehalina4563]

at 22:20 when i click the eye button to show the neck it doesnt show anymore :3 i also tried the body and it's also gone. HELP!

[@waynehalina4563]

damn im currently in here. and something fucks up! Deleting my file then!!!!

[@Maxulle3]

Hope you didnt, I had same problem and solved it. You need to hit either the slash or the period on your numpad :D

[@alexandrosp537]
