Outstanding explanation of these basics, and enough specificity about controls and tools to really get me started. Thank you.
Everything became clear. thanks for the video👍
The BEST tutorial ?! No no, it's much more that that !!! Thanks a million !!!
Comming from 3DsMax, this is the first tutorial I have seen showing that curve tools in Blender are not full of bugs, but just very complicated! ;)
Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial!
What a great tutorial. Learned a lot. Thank you very much 🙏🙏
No other instructor has gone to such depths, it has made me confident on using the amazing tool, the different handle options are so relevant, as i do use them in illustrator, but now have a better understanding with respect to blender. Thank you sir, god bless you
Very useful tutorial on bezier curves. Thank you very much.😀 I never knew that the scale tool can snap to vertex either. You must have spend lots of time in preparing you tutorials. They are very thoughtful and explained very well.👍

Exactly, pure dedication, thorough reading of the manual and sheer hard work. Really enjoy the videos
this is a AWESOME tutorial.. no fluff just get that point across, bottom line.. wish more people taught like this!
if we want to snap something we don't need even to have snap mode on. All we need to do is drag the vertex while holding down the ctrl button.(We must have proper "Snap to" mode only)
I was very confused about using Bezier , Thanks for making the learning process so comprehensible
Solid Gold. Thanks for this awesome overview. Detailed, concise and super helpful!
superb tut. A lot of stuff I didn't have a clue of. Very useful thank you.
wow! I use curves a lot in Blender and didn't know some of these tips!
Love the Bezier curves...remember learning these for trying to make camera tracking for an object in early game dev college. Thanks for adding this video, mate! Subbed.
Superb tutorial. Thank you for taking the time.
A fascinating explanation of a basic feature that rarely gets attention. Extremely useful. Thank you. Dg
The most useful tutorial about Curve aligning, thank you a lot.
A lot of usefull information. Thank You.
Great tuts! - Many thanks😀🙏👍
Thank you! Learnd essential stuff.
Terrific tutorial.
This is really the best tutorial about blender curve, thank you very much!
This is great! I had no idea about these other handle types.
By far the best tutorial regarding curves for aspiring user blenders. That was deeply detailed. Hats off to you, sir!
An excellent tutorial, Chris. Really appreciate your very clear, concise, and calm presentation style. Very well done. Thank you!
Very good explanation, pleasant storytelling voice- great teacher!
Thanks so much for this tutorial! Very helpful and informative. Greatly appreciated!
I'm a complete beginner and this tutorial was so very helpful, thank you! Using the terminology and announcing the shortcuts as you went was very informative.
lovely tutorial ! thank you very much :)

super tuto !
Really well presented
Was struggling to understand this thanks for the insightful video
Very useful tut👍
Thank you!
Thank you
thanks!
thank you
Very comprehensive and well explained. Very nice :).....At 19:41, the 2 points are selected but the handles are not, which contradicts a previous statement. :)
I never knew they added the pen… That’s what I’m use to from using Affinity Designer.. All that extrude stuff is tedious! Now I can make my icons easy!
wow i just watched a 30 minute video about curves
Thanks a lot for this very useful tuto!
You have just saved me hours of messing with curves. I hated having to use them to make hydraulic pipes, its a real pain to make them look real. i have messed with them for ages and had no idea of V for auto, vector etc. Its now quite pleasing to use curves so thank you very much
Great tutorial…thanks!
This is very helpful overall. One question, is there a simple way to edit a single 2D closed curve symmetrically? I'm trying to edit a curve to use as a profile along another curve and would like to do it symmetrically without having to copy and scale by -1 then move and join every time I change something to see the results.

That's a good question, I'm not sure Blender has symmetry for curves, but I'll check it out.
Thanks for this tutorial. Now I know the shortcuts! By the way: you pronounce Bézier and not Bèzier. So this é sounds like in A-team, not like bat.

Yeah, I know I say it in a very American English kind of way, but it's still better than what a lot of people do by saying bez-e-air. lol
What version of blender was this... And what happened to the fillet option at time 18:12

You need to have the Curve Tools add-on enabled for the Fillet option to become available in the context menu.
Could I maybe use this tutorial to make race tracks for a racing game I'm working on in Godot?
I'm having difficulty reading the bezier handles. My handles are only a few pixels thick, making them very hard to read. In your video, your handles are a lot thicker and are much more readable. I set Blender's theme to Light Mode, which didn't help. What setting adjusts this? Is something the add-ons do? Also, I'm using Blender version 2.93. Thanks. EDIT: In case anyone else is struggling with hard to read handles, this is what I did: I uninstalled 2.93 and installed the latest version and made sure I was using Light Mode. That didn't do anything. I went into Edit > Preferences > Interface > Line Width > Thick. That's made things much more readable. It produces an appearance similar to this video.

@marcelthevirginian1656, Hi, Regarding the handles thickness, I find that you can adjust the Preferences > Themes > 3D Viewport > Edge Width to make the handles thicker. If you have not find out already.
OMG, the pen tool is exactly like vector graphic software like photoshop and inkscape
How do you add color to a bezier curve? Changing Wire or Wire Edit colors in Theme isn't working, and can't find any solutions online...
Thanks!
Hi, a question: if I select "automatic" or "aligned" it can make bazier replace the NURBS curves? Thank you

That's a good question, there's likely a technical or mechanical drawing type add on out there considering the sheer number of add ons available. I'll do some looking.
do you use the old blender?

No, it's the Light Blender Theme. It was the most current version of Blender at the time of recording. Bezier curves show up better in the light theme for tutorials.
That lower portion , frame 12:39 is producing a figure "8" rather than a curve. Wgere did I go wrong? GOOD EVENING

In Edit mode, use the Curve Pen tool to add a point where you want the curve cut (Control click to add point). With that new point selected, press N to bring up sidebar options. In Edit tab --> Curve Edit panel, select Split at Vertex.
Incredibly complex piece of overkill when compared to how other software tools treat vectors.
It is a beautifully made tutorial. But coming from Rhino, this is my idea of hell. Blender is so complicated, especially in managing things like bezier that makes me wanna puke whilst having a head-splitting headache

Dude, you posted this video 9 months ago, why are you not updating your blender version.... nobody is using this old version anymore
@christopher3d475

IF YOU HAD LOOKED CLOSELY, you would have noticed it was the most current version of Blender at the time I recorded it (3.5 or 3.6) but I was using the BLENDER LIGHT THEME, because bezier curves and curves in general show up better for tutorials than the standard dark theme.
all the options are different. blender is designed so nobody can learn it because every tutorial is always old and unfollowable.
Thanks chris,,how do i know where the front or back of the curve is..where is the show nomals button?
