  • I was really frusterated because I just wanted to make very simple, low poly meshes and I feel like blender (and it's learning curve) was overkill, I searched for hours, had so many people insult me for asking. finally I found this randomly lmao.

    This really is a fantastic tutorial for creating a generic model in Blockbench. I will say it's a tad fast paced, and a few things were hard to noticed. One thing I struggled with trying to figure out for a few minutes was that holding shift let me make smaller size adjustments and movements, holding ctrl and then drawing a rectangle is how you select things, and you have to select what you're trying to transform + flip x. Despite the tutorial feeling a bit fast in my opinion, this is the best video for understanding the proper modeling process when making a generic model. It was incredibly easy to follow, the tool feels powerful without feeling overwhelming like Blender, and I'm so excited to create with it. My advice to anyone reading the comments who are unsure, give it a go!! Make a few different trucks and get comfortable with the hotkeys and modeling process! Take it from a serial procrastinator, do it now! Follow the video, practice the basics here that he teaches you by making a few trucks, try to make a car, and a bus too! You'll have the basics in no time, and then you can push on to learn newer things with ease! Good luck!
  • The perfect tutorial a beginner could ask for, this helped me get all basics I needed.
  • I am relatively new to Blockbench. I see the real potential for this program, having tried to learn and master Blender. I even got to get a feel for modeling using cubes. However, the implementation of meshes offers more opportunities. I keep watching and re-watching this video for inspiration and learning. Thank you for this fabulous video resource!

    Awesome software. As a pixel artist and lowpoly modeller this is just perfect. Thanks for sharing it!
  • @user-ff5iz4rm3f
    this is seriously one of the most underrated Engine I have ever seen.
  • @Jorendo
    Great tutorial! Thanks for showing how to get started like that and begin with a great looking low poly vehicle!
  • very interesting video love the pixel texture map and how simple it was done.
  • @MathdallasRblx
    Thank you so much Blockbench for this tutoriar and that application🙂
  • This software has so much potential. I'd like to see a better loopcut tool that allows multiple even cuts. I'd also like a mirror mode. I think I'm seeing a lot of repeated work here, and some careful copy and pasting at the right time. But I love the simplicity. Really going to give this a good try out !
  • @MACH_SDQ
    looking very gooood, i might try it !!!!!
  • @Pixelated480
    you taught me more than enough thank you very very very much

    2:32 to select the entire loop cut: ALT+leftmouse on one of its edges. Strangely enough I can't find this in the keybindings nor could I find it on the blockbench wiki.
