Why is topology challenging to learn? Where to start? Often we look at forms as a whole and not a unified set of smaller, simple forms. Understanding simple forms creates a bridge to mastering complex forms. Try to practice your topology on simple objects, and slowly work up to more challenging ones.

As someone who works with 3D modelling almost daily. This whole channel is a goldmine for someone who wants to do modelling for a living or a hobby. So many essential steps is covered on this channel that cannot be ignored! Another thing... I highly recommend to people to learn the SubD workflow. Because then you know all the rules to fix modelling issues in lowpoly, boolean workflows or whatever there is. Keep it up Elementza!

This tutorial stands out as it goes beyond merely garnering likes or views on YouTube. It encourages critical thinking rather than blind imitation, shedding light on the creative decisions and the rationale behind them. It's the kind of quality content I've been seeking for years, offering a logical approach to practices I've previously adopted without fully understanding. It's truly enlightening and has taught me so much.

Now I see why my friend recommended this channel. I don't want to go back to the model of the original starship enterprise made a couple months ago (spent absurd number of hours on it but it's one of my best pieces to date) I know some of the geometry has errors where i got tripped me up. But unlike in the past i didn't hit any firm brick walls I did not know how to proceed through. Having subject matter I was passionate and knowledgeable about helped keep me motivated. But i have pieces of geometry im afraid to touch for fear of messing it up... Now I know I've had the wrong attitude in that regard.

Hi. thank you Mario. really appreciate these golden modeling techniques. could you please make a tutorial series about modeling a Car or at least some tips and tricks for car modeling because I think modeling a car is very difficult and if someone can model a car with nice and clean topology then have ability to model everything.

Can I ask what's the shortcut for the tools marking menu? Where you select to add multiple loops instead of one. Also, at 1:31:16, where you changed it for absolute offset. Thank you for the answer!

Hi,I'm curious, I'm currently studying architecture and trying to design fluid buildings using Maya, but I haven't found a suitable educational YouTube channel. Could you recommend a channel that focuses on architecture in this area?"
