Tutorial: Procedural Textures in Blender

[@matglk2084]

For those who're confused on the thin splits around the sphere and the scale isn't working in voronoi in blender version 2.9, go to voronoi texture, replace the node section from "color" to "distance" in the voronoi texture towards height on displacement.

ty!

it still don't work for me maybe i'm dumb

[@xXpUrEzZXx]

Thank you so much!!

[@simpomme8461]

I love you

[@danielsisk2345]

Best Blender tutorial I've seen in a long time. I liked how you showed the results and the nodes used at the bottom left corner like on 6:55 to 7:18. I was looking for a tutorial specially about procedural texturing. That is what led me to this tutorial and it was delivered spot on. Looking forward to seeing more like this.

[@ronakhunashimarad3781]

I've watched a lot of Blender tutorials, but yours are different. You not only deliver everything concisely (this video is under 10 minutes!) but you also make it engaging and fun to learn. Thanks!

[@sottozen]

I loved this tutorial sooo much!

[@Vrocks_]

Man, I was just struggling for the past 1 month to split the window and join it back to one single window, Thank you so much you saved hours of my time..Love from india

[@JanWischnat]

Man, not only do you share your knowledge, but also deliver it in an audiovisual masterpiece! Impressive! Thanks!

[@Polyfjord]

Thank you kindly!! Glad you liked it!

[@mr.caterpillar5642]

Impressive stuff! Your ideas are inspiring as always

[@SkinnyBlackout]

That short animation is beyond impressive. The little robot is just adorable. Can't wait for the whole thing!

[@thantcinpyone97]

Love the fact that he explained the purpose of the nodes and why he used what. Some tutorials just tell you to follow step by step without telling you why those steps are needed. Really awesome stuff. Keep up!

[@servicesaustralia4329]

I've been following you for awhile now and you work is absolutely breathtaking. Me being a developing blender artist and seeing your work has showed me what I really want to do, I've now elected to do TAFE education instead of highschool to pursue Blender and 3D works. Thank you so much for your influence, it means a lot.

[@wasabin2184]

This tutorial introduces nodes in such an easy and fun way , at first i saw all these tutorials that had 40+ nodes and it looked overwhelming. But this was so easy to understand.

[@Elcodigodebarras]

The result has amazed and captivated me at the same time, it's great what blender can do when you have the right hardware equipment. Good job Polyflord!

[@itsjustme9691]

I was told that you can't connect color to a vector. I feel violated.... Please make more procedural texture tutorials!

[@HelloHiHola]

Do everything they tell you not to and, try negative numbers. Really :)

[@Nicistarful]

Well, color is R G B in grayscale values, vectors are X Y Z. There's no problem converting 0-1 grayscale range into numeric vector coordinates. :D

[@fatal510]

I thought blender wouldn't even let you connect unmatching colored dots on the nodes. I could have sworn i've tried to do that and it wouldnt let me.

[@DeathxStrike18]

@@fatal510 the color dot only indicates its function not its connectivity as long as the two connections output the same type of value needed they work fine, some dots wont connect and that has more to do with the output data not being in the parameters I.E if the node only reads number values it wont accept a script input.

[@RomboutVersluijs]

@@fatal510 Me to, yesterday i saw this guy explaing the musgrave texture. He did the samething and Musgrave has so many option when doing so

[@Stoppskylten]

Bob Ross Blender class? Made a happy little ball.. :)

[@JoelRosenfeld]

These tutorials are really great. I used to work a lot with 3DS Max back around 2003, and did it professionally for 6 years. Then I went into mathematics, got a PhD, and now I'm a professor. I've been doing a lot of work with KZbin, got to resurrect some skills in Premiere (took a year to dust that off), and now I'm looking to get into doing some visuals using Blender, MATLAB, and some Python script in the background. Thank you so much for making these quick and easy to digest tutorials. I know the basics, but I've never worked with Blender before. This is helping speed things up for me tremendously.

[@foyerdeart7518]

I gave up using blender today. Watching our vids for the first time regained the will. PLUS watching these videos is better than a movie for sure.You are amazing!!!!

[@Polyfjord]

Thanks so much!!

[@jackfairman7371]

Out of all my years watching videos and tutorials; I just have to say, you have a magic touch to your teaching in blender, you make it advanced yet simple to understand and fun at the same time. Rewarding for an equivalent amount of effort and giving immediate results after the work is complete! Thank you for making these and posting them! You've boosted my understanding greatly and even more so motivated me to work harder at blender and learn more as much as possible.

[@steelcoyote2868]

Hey this tutorial is great. For anyone trying in 2..9, Voronoi has changed. AT 5:53 I had to use the "Distance" data or w/e it's called and feed that into the "height" socket of the displacement node, in order to achieve the same effect.

[@spicytysie]

Thank You!!!

[@yashilrajbeesetty6628]

Best teacher I found. I've been looking for a beginner friendly tutor to start my journey. thanks pal!

[@poppiskern]

DAMN! Wasn't expecting that transition effect with the different setting of the procedural texture! Keep the good work UP!

[@mountaingoat6393]

Late to the party, but I have to say ... you are GENIUS! And a gifted teacher. Thank you for producing these tutorials for us mortals!

[@JoelRosenfeld]

Holy shit man that B-roll with the ball and the mathematical textures at the end. I felt like I could taste that. Amazing.

[@daddouuuu]

I think that's the best "beginner" tutorial I've seen out there that's actually going to have me pick up Blender for the first time and do something with it.

[@isaackershnerART]

I’ve never watched a tutorial that made me get tingles lol! Nice job!

[@ukaszlisowski6155]

Your tutorials are pure gold.

[@Nate-zs7rm]

Man you are such a great teacher! You broke down these aspects of the node editor so well and made me jump to my computer to start playing with this. Thanks for the video!

[@Polyfjord]

Thanks!!!!

[@SethGardnerVlogs]

Your use of sound design makes this tutorial stand out SO much.

[@AntonioSorrentini]

This is perfection made tutorial. This is how a top level tutorial is made. Really compliments, please do more and more of these. Perfect balance between music, speech, storytelling, and of course content and info. Many should learns from how you're doing it.

[@Atulkumar-sz6tg]

The way u explained, is literally awesome, usually people don't explain anything with such a detail !

[@anixblen]

Wow! The explanation related to geometry nodes was so on point and smooth! Request you to make tutorials specifically dedicated to geometry nodes. They hold so much of power and there's so much to learn, but it's very rare to see such videos where they explain each and every thing by giving examples.

[@simen4613]

I was right. This is incredibly well done. I just watched it to see, how you would've made the tutorial, not for the tutorial itself, since I'm using procedural textures since forever :D

[@nandocordeiro]

Amazing tutorial, and i gotta tell you something, these high quality short clips with the material applied in the object and the nodes in the corner are simply JAWS DROPPING. A super elegant way to showcase the work, great visual language, hope it's possible to see more of it in future tutorials. Congrats!
