you know what time it is… 👉⌚️

So I'm CONSIDERING starting Blender stuff again, and it's PROBABLY gonna involve lots of Mimi soooo... be ready.

Here's a shitpost render ig

Learning blender in collage and uh...

Like I already knew the symbol's reference, but it still blew my mind all the same.

STAR TRAVEL!! 🌠✨🌌⭐

I love making low poly models, I did a lot of experimenting in the shader editor for this one I hope ya'll like it :D making the galaxy hair was so fun

hey there! I've been working in blender for a while now but I'm really enthralled by how clean and kinda cel shaded your textures look would it be alright to ask what your general shader setup looks like or how you achieve that? thanks!

Thank you for asking! My shader setup is pretty simple, I just use an emission shader or just plug the image straight into the output haha if there're any shadows on my models it's usually painted in by hand I think the biggest thing that helps my shader look so nice is that I change my color management settings from filmic to standard

Other than that I have used the default principled BSDF shader a few times with one of the default "studio lights" or HDRIs as the world lighting

Here's a tutorial on how to set up the HDRIs to be rendered if you're interested

Sparkle Dog?? 3d model Artfight ATTACK!

I love this character it was such a blast to design them with @catmintrose and I had such an awesome time modeling, texturing and animating them in blender I can't wait for art fight next year this year was so much fun thank you @catmintrose for letting me attack you

For your 3D art:

What are your influences?

What is your process for creating and texturing the models?

What software do you use?

Other than that, I will be keeping an eye out for more of your models as you are what I aspire to be as a hobbyist 3D artist.

Thanks for asking! I'll apologize ahead of time I'm not the best a writing but I hope my answers will be helpful and fun to read

1: I'm really inspired by arcane and into the spider verse! I love the way they can make 3d look like paintings or comic books I love to stylize 3d and I hope with more practice I can make my 3d art come off as different 2d styles. I'm also a big fan of the old low poly games look with the silly pixel texture it's kinda a funny balance between wanting my art to look nothing like 3d and wanting it embrace the sillies of the art form.

2a modeling: I start with cubes for almost everything I make. I started my 3d art journey with texturing Minecraft skins so I kinda like cubes, it also makes unwrapping it onto a flat plane for texturing just a bit easier for me. Here's an image with the geometry of my silly mailbox model highlighted.

3: I use Blender to make all my models although I just learned a little bit of 3ds Max in my first 3d animation class, I'm mostly self taught though that being the one semester of a 3d animation class under my belt but youtube has been a gold mine for every question I have about 3d and I've practically learned everything I know about using Blender of youtube tutorials.

2b texturing: I use an add-on called uv pack master in blender to speed up my uv unwrapping process so I can make my texture look nicer faster. As for painting I use the tools in blender to texture my models with a couple extra brushes from another add-on it's outdated though and I should probably find some new brushes lol. This is what my texture looks like btw! It's a little messy but I hope you can find it helpful!

I'm really passionate about 3d animation and almost everything involving it I love talking about it thank you for asking!

I made this as an artfight attack for @stabberghost It was really fun I adore their character so silly cute and so fun to draw GAAAHHHH it was a blast to make this

3d model Ryaan :]

Wip shots!

:)

more yotsuba : )

Ngl I haven’t opened it since the problem occurred… idk how to find said list… and I was gonna start adding details n stuff to make my character, some of the pieces are joking (limb by limb pretty much)

idk what they do I just used a tutorial and it worked on a test shape then I opened ad prepped this and it broke. I’ll try to remember to find said list and take a picture when I can. I think it’s “subdivision generation” or some thin, it’s in the generation tab, icon is like a little square with a circle in it I think, idk rn it’s late and I’m not even sure if my sentences make any sense XD

PLS HELP T^T

I got blender, worked 3 hours learning and making this, and I go to sculpt, then I try and it turns into a friggen cube!

It’s got subdivision surface modifier if that’s relevant (probably)

(some of these r from 2023 and a lot r on Roblox)

I think I’ve gotten worse-

Based on our experience from the game lol

The lalafell is Kirby, @nortedwayfinder WoL and the viera is Barnaby, the WoL I sometimes play!

(Reposting this cuz tumblr didn’t show it to anyone umu) Here’s the finished project (or roughly finished) Everything (besides a few textures) were made by me! Thank you guys for following my progress ^0^

The room’s almost done!! Just have to tweak the desk, the wall and his cabinet along with adding all his anime stuff around his room. Like seriously, Levi, why do you have so much stuff lying around.... 

Here’s Levi’s room so far.... my god this is going to take me ages to even remotely get the textures right ^0^;; (Also, that desk that’s hard to see was a bitch to make, it won’t let me put any more holes in it or it distorts the whole thing ;0;)
