COMPLETE Beginners Guide to Hard Surface Modeling (Blender Tutorial)

the link for the given PDF isn't in working...

Hey Josh, noticed some of the free ebooks on Blender Bros are no longer available. Any way to still grab them? Thanks

Great tutorial Josh. I like many others here are looking for the PDF document you list. The link is broken and it's no longer available on the website.

thank you! you save my life! 😊

I get weird shade smooth artifacts after adding the slice bool, and the problem is still there even after reordering the modifiers and setting the "solver" to "fast", Anyone has the same issue? any solutions?

Relatively new to blender but not 3d,
I know it my sound weird but i used to use 3d paint and 3d builder to make vehicles and ships when i was younger,
And thanks to your tutorial i made a spaceship with using booleans and i kept on spamming ctrl shift b

sad that pdf isn't available now :(

The video is very interesting. Can someone direct me to a tutorial on how to make a model of a real functional product in a free program? For example, a 3D model is ready for 3D printing. I want to make a functional prototype of a telescopic brush head for car wash

Hi Josh, I just signed up to your New Hard Surfaces Accelorator course on your website, I'm probably moving a little quick but just want to work on a learning time frame for myself... What would be the best course to follow after the Hard Surface Accelerator course?
Thank you in advance

i could listen to this guy talk for hours

Great Starting Tutorial! The 5 Powerful Design Elements link goes to a Page Not Found.

Does this method works on old version like 2.79? If it doesnt thats ok

Hi Josh, the Visual Design PDF link seems to be inactive 😢

Amazing tutorial, thanks so much!

awesome bundles of thanks

Really good and comprehensive tutorial for modeling.

The link to the pdf, in the description is broken, mate.

I don't see a wireframe after using the boolean and I can't figure it out. Help.

A topologia desse negócio meu deus 😭😭😭

Excellent!

Heads up, design elements link not working

I just start using Blender and your lessons has been great, thank you so much. Just wonder any chance I still get "5 Powerful Design Elements" PDF. It not on the website any more.

Just letting you guys know, the link to the "5 Powerful Design Elements" PDF seems to be unavailable and said "Page not found", in case you needed to update the info under this video or reconnect the link. Thanks again for the tutorial.

I started trying to use Blender yesterday and I'm definitely going to be referencing this video a lot.

The one thing I'm most concerned with right now is how to get exact measurements right: I notice you keep going: "I'll make it about this size" or "I'll put it somewhere around here" but I'm highly averse to eyeballing stuff like this and basically need millimeter precision at all times.

Like, when you scale down the inner duplicate of your object, what if you need to it to be an exact percentage smaller than the outer one? Or if you're beveling an edge and want the bevel to be a very specific size? Is there an easy way to do that?

A cool trick to get rid of problems especially when beveling is to go into Edit mode, select the entire mesh by pressing A, then M, and select ‘Merge by distance.” At the bottom of the screen you should see Blender saying it removed a number of vertices. Those are the problematic vertices you don’t see especially when the clamping is on but they are there. This gets rid of them.

You can also apply a bevel modifier to your cutting object. This way it will cut out nice beveled edges. Useful if you don’t want to apply the bevel modifier to the entire mesh.

I get shading issues wherever I put my inital cutter.. followed each step, replayed the video in case I missed something.. I took a long break from blender and this program is not like riding a bike.

Somehow I have applied all my modifiers at once, meaning that all the booleans are gone and I cannot undo far back enough :)

thx thx thx u shukriya

great great great man really appericiate u bro 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I love how ya boi has over 10 years in blender and there is still no explanation for certain blender quirks beyond "it's acting up"

Please can i get the link to the 5 Powerful Design Elements

You have such a nice calm voice that much a pleasure to listen, it helped me focus on the tutorial :)
Thank you for the video, it was very interesting and everything is clear. The speed of the explanation is excellent!

I just started learning blender a couple of weeks ago and I want to drop by and say thank you for making this tutorial. It really helped me remember the tools in blender and gave me confidence that I can be good at blender. I am really lucky to have found your channel. Keep up the good work!!

Hi, does anybody have a properly working link to '5 Powerful Design Elements' pdf file? Current link in description seems not working.. Thanks in advance who'll give a hint of how dowload it.

Hy, Josh! Thanks for this amazing tutorial. I had search by an explanation like this for a lot of months. I try download your PDF mentioned at end of video, but, i can't get it, because the link is crashed. Do you can fix it, please? I wanna thanks you again for your simples, objectives and completes explanations.

thanks for this great tutorial, I have always been scared off the complex look of hard surface objects and avoided them for so long. Now having seen your video , helped me a lot understanding the work flow of it, thanks

I had to move the second last cube above the bottom line. Else it made crazy triangles.

Great Vape design :).

Followed all the steps and had really weird shading issues near the parts that I used a Boolean for looks like a shading stretch across the object.

Bro wat happened to the Ebooks I can’t find them on ur website

Man thanks ❤tutorial down,

this open new world for me thanks :)

2023, there is no "5 Powerful Design Elements" PDF othere there 😔
