Hi Steve, how do i change the amount of proportional editing? like when you were pulling the bottom vertces down quite far it was stretching the top was down too, how do i lower it Thank you. Also, would you ever consider doing the AWESOME helmets from the clone wars? Like Commander Cody's helmet in the Order 66 part is AMAZING. and i have full amazing blueprints, all identically sized if you're interested (i'll email them free of course if you could do a tutorial for me?)
Thank you for this tutorial! I found it crucial when I started work in Blender, and you want to see my result?
No, it's not a Vader helmet.
It's an XCOM 2 Mod that uses Skyrim and Vader's Helmet as an inspiration!

I'm planning on adding more to the mod, though life may get in the way.
Two (technically three, one is the helmet without the goggles) items are in it at the moment. 🙂
Again, thank you for this video.
Took me 4 hours to do what you did here, step by step 😀
You and Blender Guru should do a collaboration.
Modeling is so fucking hard i dont even know how u guys do this shit
dog at 16:45
hey man im doing all the things you did to import a picture in blender and ive done all the normal stuff and then ive also went into user preferences and stuff but when i do it the image does not show and i cant work out why could me ?
How come i am getting a little split where the mirror modifier and mesh merge i have clipping turned on. I can't figure it out am i missing something? Great tut btw, thanks!!
very nice.
at 1:04, i dont have screen cast keys and i cant do the start display thing waht do i do
Awesome, thank you
U sure luv starwars blender geek 🙂
Can you get me Commander Cody's armor (also blaster in phase 2) references (front and back and also side). Make it separated for Legs, Arms, Body, Head, Blaster.
Here is some better references http://flamincactus.deviantart.com/art/Darth-Vader-Reference-640234254?ga_submit_new=10%253A1476544208
I love your tutorials man, do you reckon you can do one on the Animation Nodes addon? I'm super interested in it, but not sure where to begin learning
i cannot get the creases out. they are there to stay no matter what i do
my results always look worse than yours but I still like how me helmet is going so far
Amazing tutorials man! How did you learned Blender?
Hi. I know this is an old vid. But in 3:44 when I select the bottom half it automatically selects the top one and I cant select the bottom one
Hi man. First of all thank you for sharing this.
I have an issue. In the minute 30:47, how do you change the size of the white circle while you are rotating the selected zone??
How do you adjust the size of the proportional editing circle on the fly like that? I find I have to start dragging with one hand, then moving the middle mouse button with the other at the same time, which is very, very awkward.
Really good tutorial! I watched this to start learning to model in Cinema 4D. Attempted to model Loki's helmet, but I was not succesful. Could you do a tutorial on how to model a more complex object in the future? oh, and by any chance, do you know if there's something in Cinema 4D like Proportional Editing in Blender? Thanks!
Ok, trying to figure something out. Your sideview image is showing flipped in my blender. Tried using the invert checkboxto get it to match with this tutorial, but then after you start moving the vertices for the helmet brim, and I go sideview, everything is opposite what it needs to be. So …. do I need to reverse the image before I even start this?
Спасибо за туториал
Did he just call him, "Lord Vader"????????
No one calls him 'Lord' except for the Imperials!! 😮
i cant get it to work at 6:21 in the video please help me

Whis this pictrure turned around?!
I love blender, dont get me wrong but … why can't DEL mean delete!!!!! Not X then click on delete command. Why cant I LMB click in an open area to un-select what ever is selected like any other program. Why can't I RMB to escape out of a routine. AND for the love of GOD left click should always be SELECT( its a law). Small things like Mirror "clipping" should be turned on by default. lastly why can't I pan with only the mouse instead of remembering a hot key to go with it, especially when panning is done so often.But I do love the program and JMHO!
how are you gettin the background image to move? I can only use the wheel to zoom in and out, but not shift the whole image up and down
FYI, This video is not included in your Blender Tutorials playlist.
Steve!!! I thought you'd appreciate this BB8 i did! http://www.imgur.com/gallery/Tq4aynB
