*@mrjessecunningham* I'd love to hear more feedback. It's true that the course is not very targeted towards blender beginners but I tried to ease viewers into each topic with the step-by-step lessons in the beginning. The timelapses are meant to build on that by giving a direct example on how I approach the process in my own time & speed while providing additional techniques, tips & commentary. The timelapses are not really meant as a step-by-step follow along tutorial, but if there's something you want to know more about just ask ;)

*@Julien Kaspar* Thanks for the reply. I don't think I am totally intimidated, I will probably stick around to learn how to do a clean retopology. No need to slow things down for me but it would just be nice to get to learn things at a not so excelerated pace. I have already created meshes and a few pretty good sculpts but they are bumpy and not as clean as yours. Maybe do a section on your settings or did I miss that already in the hyper speed of your videos lol. I'll try to stick around tho. Thanks!

*@michaelakinfenwa* Yes I am using a pen tablet and have been using many variations over the past years. Currently I am working with a Wacom Cintiq 16 but it's not easy to set up to work on it comfortably. I can recommend to go for an Intuos S or M and keep it in front or side by side with your keyboard. I don't recommend sculpting with a mouse ;)

*@Julien Kaspar* thanks I am using a intuos M also, what I wanted to know is how you mapped the buttons on it or etc,thanks

*@michaelakinfenwa* The cintiq has no buttons unfortunately so I am using the keyboard. Blenders keymap is too big for just the tablet buttons anyway.

*@MARCOS ISMAEL MAIA JUNIOR* There is an option to slow the video down as much as .25x speed. It's also possible to pause the video at any time. These are valuable tools when one wishes to get a better look at a certain part of the process during a timelapse video.

*@Pedro Nataniel* Thanks! Glad you like it :D I try to make it clear in the naming what type of object it is. GEO stands for geometry (Usually meshes to sculpt on), HLP for helper and sometimes I use LOC for locator (Objects that are used for modifiers, constraints & parenting), CRV for curves, etc.

*@Julien Kaspar* Fine. I got it! Have a nice weekend 🤜

*@Daniel Popel* Reusing basemeshes for different projects is a very common practice and I can highly recommend it. Most artists do it to save a lot of time during productions so save your models and import them whenever you need a base to start from :)

*@Minkyung Park*

• You can change the darkness of the mask in the viewport overlays settings in the header.
• Keep adjusting the nose until the shape looks right. Since my footage is speed up it's hard to see that I made a lot of small strokes until the shape was right.
• Yes I did have dyntopo enabled during the process.
• The cursor looks different in the new version of Blender 2.81. The inner circle is the "normal radius" which defines the direction that the brush is facing.

*@jayson* Maybe this tutorial I did a while ago helps. The general principles should still work. Look up some references on how the hair should look specifically and try sculpting it. https://cloud.blender.org/p/speed-sculpting/5cb8879fd6963c01ab9b0fe2

*@Julien Kaspar* wow! thanks a lot.

*@S.S* In the overlays settings in the 3d viewport header: Check "extras" and it will be visible. Other overlays like bones, origins & the 3D cursor were disabled as well for sculpting workspaces since they are often just in the way and too distracting. You can toggle them back on if you like of course.

*@Julien Kaspar* Yes, Thanks man!

*@Sosa* Is dyntopo enabled? Are there any modifiers active on the object? Are any extra shading optiosn enabled like Cavity or Shadow that could slow down the viewport?

*@Julien Kaspar* There is none, actually bcos i have successfully done the Boolean operations and the mesh is now one. What baffles me is that snake hook brush works perfectly but not the grab brush: it lags terribly. I also noticed that pen pressure is also erratic could it my stylus? I use veikk tablet A15 version 2.00.3

*@Sosa* Sorry I don't know an answer to this. It could also be a hardware issue.

*@Mohamad Amirul Hakim* It's an addon called Mask Tools. By now it's almost completely outdated and I can recommend to just use the default masking features in Blender.
Hopefully I'll make an update to the lessons soon to include them.

*@andbia* It's a lot easier to get the forms right if you do it with lots of separate primitives. If you are more advanced at sculpting then you can just sculpt everything from a sphere, which can also be faster sometimes.

*@zokuro* Thanks! And that is a really good question!! I think these sculpting fundamentals need their own tutorials but the short answer is unfortunately to use the right tools at the right time.
The pinch, crease, draw sharp and multi-plane scrape brushes are all useful but get you slightly different results. One tip would be to use masks way more often. Use the mask brush or lasso mask the hard edge, then smooth the mask a bit with the A pie menu and then you can smooth he surfaces nearby without destroying the hard edge.

*@Peter Yoon* I can't tell because the voxel size is based on the real world scale. It might be very different every time. But try to keep it only as high as necessary and increase it slowly over time to get more detailed later.

*@Brian Smith* You CAN keep it if you want to, but it's usually best to remesh and smooth it a little bit since it will usually look terrible once you use smooth shading.

*@mrjessecunningham* Thanks for the feedback, but I don't think I really understand. How is the way the course is presented here not step by step?

*@Ryan Clouse* HAHA!!! Nevermind I found it out. xP Still, Thanks for the great videos!

*@ammar mohammed* They usually have a lot of extra tips and techniques, especially for production. But the main lessons are more important.

*@Abdullah khalid* In the more recent versions of Blender I cannot recommend the mask tools addon anymore. All the necessary features are now in Blender by default.

*@Julien Kaspar* ok thanks, but how I can make eyebrow easy way by making new object or draw it on the head ?

*@Abdullah khalid* You can paint a mask and then use the "Mask Extract" option in the Mask menu of the header.

*@Julien Kaspar* would be good if you update the videos. I was wondering how to use that addon, until I saw this mention. Cheers.

*@Jonathan Mbau* You will only be able to reliably keep the surface smooth if the resolution is even throughout the surface.
So if you use dyntopo, use the simplify brush with a bit of autosmooth in the brush settings and sculpt over the surfaces.
Or use the voxel remesher, which will make it a lot easier to smooth your model.

*@Abhirama Gopala Dasa* No but in the recent versions of Blender you don't need it anymore ;)
