Makin a Bag o' Beans

raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain doooooooooooooown

Don't listen to Ian Bean man we all love you.

I love how fun you make these videos. My kids want to learn Blender simply because they hear the bonkers tunes when I’m watching your vids. 😂

love the radiohead cover mid video, thanks

Now I want this coffee machine for my flat ... Fun tutorial Ian!

Manuel Grewer

also thank you! very useful.

lol this tutorial was hilarious man

I saw the butt looking cube Ian...... You can't hide for long!

it's very cool and very powerful how thoroughly you credit people for inspiration or tutorials. especially considering how many mid-sized youtubers just straight up recreate some of your patreon tutorials and post them as their own

it's that guy!

Oh they aren't at all. They're the worst. And apparently when they get in the ocean they look just like plankton so they cut open a beached whale recently and literally thousands of these things came pouring out it's an absolute nightmare.

Ian Hubert

where's the patreon-tier for a full OKC cover album?

it's that guy!

Came for the tutorial, stayed for the song.

It's not THAT fat. But it's definitely an ass.

Ahhhh... I need coffee now

David McSween

Hey Ian, great video! This is a nice GP tutorial to take a look at: https://youtu.be/NA3wZBC1Nvw It it's still difficult to switch to a GP workflow coming from mesh modelling to me. But mastering it would add so much.

This rules.

Scott Henriksen

Wow I just watched a 30+ minute video on how to model a bag of beans and it’s probably the most entertaining video I have watched this year. I don’t know if that says something about me or something about Ian. But who cares. This was good stuff.

I love all of your humor! It makes the tutorials way more relatable since it's like you're saying everything I'm thinking lol

Killian Tell Strassheim

Great idea and tutorial, I hope it's recyclable!

Pete Burges

I really hope that coffee didn't involve putting the prepackaged beans into a sock and then smashing it with a mallet (or rock)

Evan Barron

Now everything will have a starburst sticker on it, starbursts everywhere. No one will be able to read the labels. Madness !

Gabrial Wolf

Beans Means...er... Coffee.

Doug Brown

I liked that fat ass cube

Anthony Delasanta

intro sounds like the joker xD

Ian Letarte

That was a close one. The bean gods are appeased.

LET THE BEANS RAIN! Seriously though, this seems like an asset I didn't realize I needed :D

Miko Dela

Amazing as always. Loved the Radiohead riff. Time to make some coffee.

Radiohead Esq bag of beans song yesssss. Thanks so much Ian!

Blake Rizzo

So Im in quarantine right now and the bean song is what keeps me (in)sane

Ayyy my first post as a new patron :D

The reason it looks like metal is you used the Glossy material which will cause it to reflect with the color you give it, but only metals do that, you should use the principled BSDF because it correctly reflects white, and makes the color the diffuse, which is how plastic looks. So unless you really wanted the metal look, Principled is the way to go.

Zap Andersson

Me: Patiently waiting for the next colour space tutorial. Ian: BAG OF BEANZ!!! But for real, great tutorial Ian. I learned a ton! Thx

Chris Fast

Interested to see you using the different scenes in the same blend file. I'm never quite sure when to use those, so I end up making different blend files for everything. Am I missing the benefit to that? Anyone have any thoughts on it?

Paul Richmond

Love seeing your process Ian! So much info in all of these. I always struggle with clothing simulations in Blender it almost never works the way I'm thinking in my head and the settings never make sense to me. Started using Marvelous designer for everything cloth sim related and is very intuitive.

Diego Nossa

Wait really??

Ian Hubert

OH! No sorry I was doing a stupid joke because I figured nobody would actually want a tutorial about me modeling a bag of beans :P. And I love Blender Secret! But not so much a collab in this case as me inadvertently making a much longer version of his tutorial, haha

Ian Hubert

Who is SO SHIT person to say "do that or I'll quit?" . Anyway I didnt know that you collaborated with Blender Secret. What a powerful team!!!

Raffo VFX

YOU are my hero lan!

I am literally in the middle of doing a scene with those. Thank you Ian!

Bartek L

Yay I saw this on twitter! So good to have a breakdown

Mahdi Poursamad

Missed opportunity for ‘Making a big bad bag o’ beans’ (try to say it quickly :) )

thank you for spilling the beans about making the beans.
