I'm from a small village in India. 2 years ago, I stumbled upon your donut tutorial and started learning 3D on my laptop that I got from the chief minister of my state as a reward for performing well in the state exams. And now I'm a 3D artist in an American company for last 9 months where I design character-based products for 3D printing. Thanks you so much, Andrew. Keep doing the great work. God bless!❤

A million times THANK YOU! I was diagnosed last year at 40 with a chronic illness which has left me pretty much disabled, with cognitive issues and no longer being able to work. I still want to find something I not only enjoy, but that also keeps me productive and possibly adds a little income. I came up with wanting to create CC for the Sims games. I managed simple recolours and adding new artwork to frames, but I really want to create from scratch. I downloaded Blender, watched a heap of tutorials and worked alongside them but usually stumbled out the gate with not having a mouse! I had near given up when I somehow came across your tutorial. 4 minutes in and you have included laptop users who don't use a mouse, lifesaver. So far this tutorial is so easy to follow and I'm actually excited to continue 🙏 Appreciate you so much!

I just learned today that this is your 4th donut tutorial. I began my Blender journey with your 2nd donut tutorial. Had no experience and no idea what I was doing. After a grueling several days, managed to cross the finish line with an epic looking coffee and donut scene. It was an amazing feeling of accomplishment that your tutorial made possible. Now begins the journey into your fourth Blender tutorial. The goal is to brush up on basic Blender skills, learn what Blender 4.0 is capable of, and compare the differences between the two. Very much looking forward to it.

A few days back, I embarked on my journey to learn 3D animation using Blender. The first step? Finding a KZread channel that could guide me through with clarity and ease. After sifting through numerous options, I stumbled upon Blender Guru, and it perfectly fits the bill. From what I've experienced thus far, it's an absolute gem for beginners like me. The content is professionally crafted and incredibly easy to follow. Many thanks to Blender Guru for making this learning process so accessible and enjoyable.

Andrew, words cannot express my gratitude to you for teaching me Blender. I might only have watched you on KZread, but I will never forget your lessons.

On a German keyboard layout (likely also some others) the backtick ` works as a so-called deadkey (i.e. it doesn't appear to do anything immediately - you have to press a subsequent key with which it composes into a different character) and is located on a different physical key on the keyboard (next to the backspace key). Which in effect means the shortcut doesn't work on those layouts and you have to rebind it first in the preferences.

I just downloaded blender (as is the case with the majority of these comments) and this series was a big help to get my creative juices flowing. I was looking into blender because I am trying to develop a game with my friends with some 3d aspects and I had never used blender before or really any 3d program. So, thank you for helping me!

i did my first donut when 2.8 came out. now i'm doing my third donut to learn the new things in 4.0. this tutorial series is always nice when major versions of blender release.

This is what I like about this guy. He always makes tutorials for every new version of Blender so that every beginner who just downloaded the new version can cope. What a wholesome guy. Keep it up, buddy. :)

I read comments about how many people have only taught themselves blender through KZread and now have a job. Two years ago, I would never have thought how far this decision would take me... In 2 days I start my new job as a 3D designer and visualizer in a great company and I am so happy that I took this path. Thank you, Blender Guru, for helping so many people on their way. You are a great inspiration, motivation and enrichment for KZread and this great 3D community :))))

I started my Blender hobby when 2.8 got released and your donut series was essential for me. Today I'm really excited about many of 4.0's new features and while I don't consider myself a "complete beginner" by any means any more I'm thrilled to relive this experience and highly confident that there's still a lot to learn from you even in a beginner tutorial. Let's go!

Alright, so it is 2024 and here I am, searching for a new skill to learn. As a graphic designer, I always notice how 3D is always wanted so I am here to give it a try. This "first" video truly gave an introduction and I feel ready to follow along. Nicely done! You earned yourself a subscriber and a big thumbs up sir! Thank you!

Start with your first donut tutorial, it's been so long it's time to start learning again, thank you for still making it

it's been a couple of years since i made my first donut. Since that day i started working on 3D animations as a freelancer and over the last year i built a studio that it is now my life and it's been able to provide for me, my wife and for 5 other people that we hired over the year. I cannot express my gratitude to you, blender software and the community. You changed my life forever. And i look forward to a day where i could shake your hand and tell you the impact that you've had in our community. You've been my master. Thanks for everything and greetings from Chile

A new version of Blender hasn't properly landed until a new Blender Guru tutorial series comes out. Andrew, I first discovered your tutorials at version 2.8 back in 2018. Helped me with lots of projects in between, and still learning! Many thanks for the excellent tutorials that keep on coming. Always fun to follow along.

Andrew, thank you so much for all the work in updating the donnut tutorial and in general for all that you share. Happy holidays, and may the coming year bring health, success and prosperity to you and yours.

Thank you Blender Guru for running this Blender Tutorial Series. I've been using Maya for the past 25 years, and Mudbox and Fusion for the last 10. However, Blender being free, I thought I'd make the switch to learn about its capabilities. These videos are very helpful - thank you for making them! I especially appreciate the perspective of someone who not new to 3D modelling, but approaching Blender for the first time.

Freaking hell. I never progress, but am hooked on picking up Blender every time you put out a new tutorial and making donuts for a few weeks. I'm very curious to see how much things have progressed since our last adventure together. Great to see you still teaching the masses.

You know how impactful Blender Guru's donut tutorial for the community. Almost all of the "Blender Progress" videos are always started with Donut tutorial, thank's for the tutorial and God bless you Andrew.

Started this about a month ago but the version of blender I was using was different, so some things were a bit difficult to replicate. Glad there's a new updated version!

I tried learning blender by skipping the basics and just winging it and that went predictably disastrous so I’m finally gonna make the damn donut 😂 thanks for these tutorials, they’re engaging while still being slow enough for me to keep up 💚

I started my Blender journey in January with your previous donut tutorial. After just 3 months I was applying for a school in 3d animation and visualization. The last entrance exam was held in May and I almost got in. Had a few months break during the summer but I'm back with more passion for 3d arts. Currently learning sculpting, which is something that would have helped with the exams a lot. Thanks for everything!

Real talk - I'm not that great in Blender but I still remember this series for making the donut as literally one of my fondest memories. Learning Blender feels like you're learning how to make a universe with the click of a button. Thanks Andrew!!!!

Thanks for posting a new tutorial with each new blender release. I've been on the fence of learning Blender since 2.x released and only now have gotten serious/sure about it so this is perfect for me.

And I don't know about you, but to ME, the biggest compliment a person can receive is somebody who learned a program based on YOUR TUTORIAL puts the end result of that tutorial into a well-received motion picture like "everything everywhere all at once"..... that sort of homage is one for the record books..... and is a testament to how much a GREAT TEACHER can influence and inspire a student. I'd wager that person wouldn't have even been in animation and 3d to the level of getting that gig if it weren't for that tutorial.... so the send-up with the donut is a high compliment.

I just downloaded blender last night and got that basics down within 10 hours I'm on intermediate level but this guys tutorials are gonna be so helpful because of the small but important changes from 3.0 to 4.0 THANKKK YOU man I appreciate it a lot.

I love these tutorials that you give out every other year! I did the 2019 doughnut spin animation and had a lot of confidence to test the waters and I made some shorts to just throw into KZread because of this! I want to keep coming back for these tutorials though to keep sharpening my craft!

As a beginner of using Blender, this has helped me so much! Thank you so much Andrew for making these videos for people to follow!

Everyone says that "donut" tutorial is the first the most important tutorial that one has to go through in order to learn 3d and.... they are right. I remember my first donut and how proud I was! I am nowhere close to call myself a "pro" but it certainly was the greatest start of 3d journey that I could give myself. Thank you for your work! ❤

Here we go again... I started with a pre-2.8 version of this tutorial, and wouldn't have touched Blender if not for your donut tutorial helping me make sense of all of it. It was easy to follow, thoroughly explained, and most importantly for a pretty hostile UI at the time, comforting. Thank you for bringing so many people into this marvelous piece of software.

Hi, I love your Donut tutorial for so many reasons. For starters, I'm from a spanish speaking country (Colombia) and I feel your english is pretty good, I've been able to understand 95% of the content without subtitles, so thank you so much for that. Regarding Blender, I've always wanted to learn about arts, design and technology and I think Blender integrates all of that. This is just my third of fourth day but I've already learned so much. Thanks in advance for future tutorials!!

Watching this makes me think about all the newcomers confused about everything and coming here trying to learn, just like me one time, and it warms my heart To the newcomers, it may be confusing at first but you get used to the controls and everything will stop looking so chaotic. I'm actually a beginner too (Only started a couple months ago) so I'm here relearning some stuff, but we all start from somewhere

its crazy how this got 1.4 million views but like 10% of people got in finale

So far this is a superb video series. I have just completed 4 and have re-watched them a few of them a few times to gain understanding of blender. The donut with icing is a superb example as it can be applied to about anything such applying armor or clothes to 3d. My goal is to make a 3D animation and render 2D spritesheets from several different angles. Very excited to start video 5. Great oob Blender Guru, keep up the absolute noob spoonfeed.

The way you taught me hotkeys helped me alot with the CGFastTrack sword. That dude would tell you to use the move tool (understandable for absolute beginners) but I found myself working so much faster thanks to taking your previous donut course. This is the real deal.

Thanks for your tutorials to keep us up to speed! Blender seems to be accelerating its advances and versions that I can hardly keep up with it! I still remember 2.9.3 and now we are on 4.0?! Amazing!

All hail the donut! 🍩

People like you, honestly make the world better. Giving out free high level, well put together and very valuable information on you area of expertise. Its an absolute treat to see. I remember when I watched the first version of this guide when it first came out. I found it amazing even back then, but now that I'm a bit older I realize how valuable you and people like you are. Thanks for you work.

Thank you so much. I have seen every single generation of this tutorial, it is always hard, but trying to learn 3D modeling has been a real dream for me for a long time.

Just stumbled upon this tutorial by chance. You have a super good way of teaching. Just want to compliment this. I find this to be the exact level of explaining complexity vs speed that makes it easy to learn something. Subscribed and looking forward to watching more :)

Been pushing back learning 3d for a decade while always hearing about the famous donut tutorial, mow I decided to start and I see it's been updated for the new blender version 4weeks ago? I feel so lucky honestly 😅 thx!

This guy is the best on KZread for teaching blender. I’m learning so much so quick. And best of all no music in the background.

@diamane5536 I'm the typo psycho.

It all begins with a donut... Thank you for this and every other tutorial I've followed, Andrew! I've used the knowledge from making sprinkles countless times. The ArchViz stuff, the glass cup... the things I learned from those first lessons are still skills I rely on today. The way you teach makes things very easy to understand, learn and adapt. Thanks again, Andrew!

i know blender and use it in my class. but now i will finish this tutorial to learn more! thank you! so happy that you have it updated

Andrew is a great teacher and I have learnt a lot from him. I did my first donut back in 2019 and now I'm back to Blender. One word of advice for anyone starting it with a basic computer. Based on my experience with a cheap computer could only learn the basics because when it gets to the lighting, and editing complex object, applying boolean modifiers etc, I struggled and finally gave up. I basically lost patience waiting for the processor to make the calculation to perform a bit more complex action. So, my suggestion is buy a decent computer preferably one with a good video card that Blender supports so the whole software can run smoothly and you will be able to see what you're doing. I just bought a new computer (the cheap one broke) and since then my Blender skill improved massively. Now I can rotate a complex object, edit it and even casts shadow when I put a light next to it. All these things was a struggle with my previous PC. Time is precious so my new PC worth every penny. Very pleased now. :) Thanks Andrew for your great tutorials!

You're absolutely amazing and what a wonderful teacher! Thanks so much for making this "complicated" software so easy and fun!!!!!! Much respect and gratitude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gonna watch the full series just for the nostalgia

and he always probably has new cool ways to create stuff

You really are a true Guru amongst us mere mortals, I definitely appreciate you making a fresh version of this... it's my second attempt of trying to get through but I'm finally confident enough that I will finish this course once and for all

I'm an old man (47) - played with AutoCAD and 3DSMAX in the late 90's. Really appreciate these lessons. - Thank you.

I started with simple stuff from passable tutorials in blender 3, but even with a tenuous grasp of the basics, I think the rules are about to change. To everyone taking this path, best of luck.

I did a donut last time and I'm sure as hell gonna do it again. Just because your tutorials are greatly structured and actually fun to watch and follow

This is because his tutorials are entertaining as well.

Wow so cool to see youve remade this so recently. I followed your tutorials for a while back in the day but have since lost all the knowledge you taught me. Time to start anew but with a decent computer!

i started 3D work with your tut about a year ago and it really helped, now im making 3d models for a game!

As someone who rarely uses Blender, these tutorials are amazing to catch up with everything again, with this being the third doughnut tutorial series I'll be going through. Thank you!

I’m an experienced Blender user of over a dozen years, and because of that I haven’t really watched The Donut Tutorials before. But I enjoy listening to your voice and hanging out, so a new version of Blender with new features plus the fact that I caught it at Part One was a perfect excuse. Was not disappointed as you brought up loads of things that experienced users skip past or forget, reminders which are handy both for ourselves and for helping others. Thank you Andrew, you’re awesome as always!

I’m very thankful for your generosity and big heart ❤️ This tutorial would save my life in this near few months. Bless you 🎉

This series was so much fun and I'm super proud of my donuts! Thank you

Wow, it's so impressive just reading all these comments of gratitude to Andrew from all around the globe from many many people who have started their professional 3d journey with one of Andrew's previous tutorials. I'm not one of them, 3d is, well at least at the moment, just a kind of passion and hobby, but still, thank you for all your tutorials and your positive energy!🙂

I literally started my blender tutorial today. I was working with 3.0 however this new version will be so much better for me! Thank you again

Im a complete beginner and this tutorial was very easy to understand and follow. Thank you! 😊

Been watching these tutorials for the better part of a decade now! As a researcher, who is helping the next generation get started in the right place, super happy I can share an up-to-date video from a trusted leader. :) PS looking sharp sir!

Me: Mom can I have a donut? Mom: But we already have donut at home Donut at home:
