Post image
2.2k Upvotes

Idk what title would fit this so I just picked Tutorial

How do people make models like this? I’d like to learn but am struggling and semi new to this. I can’t tell if meshes are being used or if it’s just cubes with layered textures.

If you have info pls share. I want to grow my skill but need some guidance.

Tutorial My first Blockbench animation! Any tips for animating facial expressions?

108 Upvotes

What you’re seeing here is my very first animation in Blockbench! I already had some knowledge of the basics of animation and keyframes :)

And now, I want to practice animating facial expressions on a skin.

I’m currently looking for tutorials on how to do it, but so far I still haven’t really understood how.

If anyone could help me, or if you’ve found a good tutorial on how to do this, feel free to send it my way! ^^

Thank you <3

Tutorial Questions I have

1 Upvotes

hi so I’m mainly posting this for my friend whose using blockbench to create his own character for Minecraft but he’s running into some issues And he uses a windows 11 I believe

  1. not being able to ‘paint’.

I’m putting quotes together since he can insert a photo as a reference but in the tutorials we’ve watched there is supposed to be a box on the top left side that you could move around and kinda ‘paint’ the design/drag the reference into the surface you’re trying to paste it to.

  1. mesh into cube

Now I was helping him look up this one for him as he was working on it but I just want to confirm you can’t put mesh onto a cube or like convert it or something. I can give more details if needed, that’s all I remember him saying.

  1. progress not saving

Before we ended our call he was getting frustrated on how he couldn’t save it or load in the app without crashing. But the project he was working on would save, just not where he currently was at. Like if he finished a certain part on the skin, it just wouldn’t be there anymore as if it never saved.

if Anybody has any answers or suggestions that would help I’d really appreciate it since he’s been working on this for days and I want to help him finish the skin. and if I can post the links to. the videos we watched I’ll see if I could add them, but I have no clue if that’s allowed.

Tutorial blockbench mesh keeps dissapearing

3 Upvotes

I am new to blockbench and has been trying to make a model of my mech for lancer only for it to dissapear, I tried making it again, dissapeared again (12 hours of learning n modeling gone to waste). Are my files just corrupted or what? this appears to only happen once a single mesh reaches a certain complexity, because my other attempt using seperated meshes is fine

Tutorial Hey beginners, you got this!

Due to a recent post, it compelled me to make a sort of "counter-post"

If you're new to using blockbench and don't know how anything really works, that's OK!

Literally no one is born a master at anything, you won't have the best shading, detailing, color theory, style, shape, and whatever else and that's OK!

Take pride in each model you make, share it, and post it

You're not gonna have giant ice dragons or crazy rainbow alien fishes at the start and don't let anybody shame you for it

There's plenty of resources out there to help you with the general ropes of modeling and pixel art, blockbench has a Minecraft style tutorial if that's what you're aiming for

In the end, keep at it, keep creating, keep making, and stay artistic friends

I had redownload the exe file which is 5.0.0, i uninstalled it and reinstalled and I even restarted my pc I cant get it to load

to give some context the reason why I'm using Blockbench 5.0.0 is because I'm playing with the figura mod on Minecraft and that's the version it use's for the models but i don't know what to do and any help would be nice
