Great tutorial! 2 tips: 1. Pressing f on an edge that has edges on both sides of it creates a face between all of the edges for you, so at the 26:38 you could just hold down F and it would automatically fill in the faces. 2. The 'mirror' modifier is essentially symmetrize but it constantly updates so you don't have to make changes on both sides. You might've already learned this in the 3 years since this was posted, but just In case

the think i like the most of this video is the short cuts to do the things in the bottom left corner

I absolutely love your video my guy, this is amazing. I do blender also and its amazing to watch another person with a different style work. Your also amazing at this Props to you my guy.

Always wanted to make a cool sword like this; thanks a lot for this tutorial. It gave me a great idea on how to set up and organize my work flow.

feels so good having the boxcutter addon

in my simple opinion the thing that makes this modeling tricky is because you use a lot of object for each pieces when you can use a single object for these pieces , then you can add more object in EDIT mode but when you go back to OBJECT MODE they still one piece I think you know what I mean , at least that's the best tuto I've ever seen before I learn more things that makes me improve my skills in modeling THANK YOU SIR

I think by now after 3 years you already know two things: 1 - F2 add-on rocks. 2 - The Mean Crease is the recommended method for sharp edges in replacement of the close loop cuts. But this is a very good mega tutorial, I will follow along very soon!

You say "We'll figure it out later" every minute omg I thought I wasn't a perfectionist until I watched this video 😭

FYI, when selecting a line of vertices, instead of clicking on every single one of them or C selecting them, select the first one, then ctrl + select the last one and Blender will automatically select all the vertices in between as well. Works on edges and faces as well.

Just a quick tip: After smooth shading you add the edge split modifier and then the sub surf. The edge split mod stops working after you add the sub surf, so there is no point in adding it.

Man... some tips Enable Native Addon named F2. Provided you have 4 vertices to fill in a row you just need to select the first edge and keep pressing F to close the loop.. Numpad Divide key "/" will make it go to something called Local View, which isolates the selected objects. It works as a toggle so you don't need to Select, Ctrl+I and H. Also it just unhides what was visible before and not everything which is pretty convinient. Bevel modifier set to Weight it's an interesting way of sharpenning edges, select the edge, set the Edge Bevel Weight to 1. Use it before the Subsurf (actually sometimes you don't even need to subsurf specially with models with a lot of flat surfaces), this way you don't need to manually add the holding edge loops. After bevel and subsurf(or not) think you should not use Edge Split modifier as it may bring you some unwanted sharp edges(actually split), that's why the bevel wasn't working good I believe. Alternativelly to the Edge Split you can use Auto-Smooth which does pretty much the same but not spliting the edges.... but still don't think it's very useful for the HP model. There is a way to select most of the sharp edges of a model while in Edge select in Edit mode, go Select> Select Sharp Edges, there is an angle slider. Then you can set the bevel weight, sharp or seam. I'm just trying to help ;)

Is there an advantage over using symmetrize over the mirror modifier?

From what I learned from the dvds is there's probably a easier way of doing it. However I would probably have made it in a similar way to how you did because it would be easier for me to understand instead of learning the easier way. But you do you.

@@zack48708 I started with the symmetrize workflow but then got fed up and changed all the meshes to mirror :)

Question ❓ When in X-Ray mode, how is it that your mesh has some sort of grid like pattern on it? Or maybe I'm just seeing it from a different angle or not getting something. And I'm not talking about the actual grid in the viewport. Again maybe it's just because I'm watching this through my cell phone so I'm not getting the best image.

Hi, very nice to follow along. Just one question: If you move a vertex onto anotherone with the snapping, wont you have two vertecies on the same location? wont this cause problems when creating the faces and later when detail adjusting the edges or faces? I often have multiple vertecies on one locatioan by mistake and then if i mark and grab something it always messes up the mesh because i did not actaully want to have more than one vertex on this location. Or do you have to "collapse" them into one vertex? Or does blender actually do this automatically?

@RadioactiveHax

Im having this problem as well. Idk if there's an addon that im not aware of or something. What I just do instead, is I just extrude the vertex for example, then while it's selected, click the other vertex I wanna snap on to, then press M to merge. You will want to select Last as that is the vertex you wanted to connect to. Idk if my comment will still be relevant to you and I started blender about a week ago. Im sure you had a workaround for this somehow haha.

You need to start using knife tool... Or at least F2 addon (which is activated by default already). And creases, and mark sharp. You are wasting polygons. Also, bevel modifier can replace subdivide for smoothing edges, and it can be limited by angle and edge marking.

Just in case you haven't found what's wrong with that yet, usually, what I find causes this is that for some reason you have two vertices overlapping each other. So after you select the 4 vertices you want to make a face out of, check at the status bar at the bottom of blender and see how many vertices you have really selected.If it says more than 4 you can press ctrl+m and merge by distance.
