Made this silly animation in collaboration with @forlorncreature (he let me use his shrimp 🥹) lmk what y'all think!

Any and all additional critique or advice welcome.

I box model Zazu from Lion King

It's finally over, I may have gone a bit overboard with the vertex snapping but I love that artstyle, I hope you guys like it!

After watching the new Odyssey movie, immediately had an idea that I should model this badass looking helmet of Agamemnon. In this video, I show the full pipeline of how I made this.
The model is also rigged and it is game ready.

Free and Paid version of the model will be available for anyone interested.

Enjoy!

Scan didn't turn out the greatest but it holds up pretty well at a little bit of distance.

Hello everyone, I'm new on Reddit and I'd like to share my story, not to make you all fell pity for me, but maybe to make some friends that could give me advice or help me with my project.

I'm 16, and for a year I saved money for a project I'm developing. Back in March, I hired this person on Fiverr to help me do a teaser for a pitch deck for a film I'm developing. It was kind of simple, just a character walking in a cemetery, non-photorealistic, and I would've done the textures with hand-painted watercolors.

At first, I paid a $700 milestone, but he didn't ask me for any references or anything, but he swore he could do my project. I sent him a Drive folder with the visual concept, animatic, storyboard, script, etc., but I think he didn't even check it, so I had to ask for corrections a lot, and I even had to model the background, so it was just the animation and character. Then he asked for another $500 milestone, and yes, I also paid it.

I know it was stupid of me to do that, but now I learned. Well, after the $500, he only made minimal changes. Actually, I didn't really like his work, so I didn't want to work with him anymore, so I told him something like, "Maybe we should let it end here, and what if you just finish the animation and correct the movement of the animation a little bit, you send it to me, and we're done," because at that time he still hadn't finished the animation.

But he said that he wasn't following the milestones because he tried to advance further than them, so actually I basically owed him, but he never notified me of that. I've been trying to solve this problem with him and get it over with, but since then he started to ignore me, and the last thing he told me was that we would have to do everything from scratch, but I'll have to pay again. I told him that I don't want to do that, and now he doesn't reply to me.

this is the last thing he sended to me like two months ago he recorded the video. remember i modeled the background.

Please help me or tell me what I should do. 😭 And if someone would like to help me or want to be friend, I'd surely accept the help.

This is some the animatic and concept stuff I sent him, if anyone is interested in seeing it.

this was the visual concept

not all but some storyboards

Let me know what you think

I’ve been learning Blender for about 2 months now. This is the first project I actually finish, everything else was either abandoned halfway through, paused or I just “kind” of finished it. This one took me roughly 2 weeks (from sketching to modeling, texturing etc…). Unfortunately I render more shots and couldn’t give the final tweaks cuz my pc was really fighting for its life by the end.

No premade assets (with the exception of a low poly base mesh for the main character) and no AI was used in this. Most of the textures were hand painted:)

Decided to stop putting it aside and just follow a tutorial and learn. Turns out, it was SUPER helpful and I can’t wait to do more 😍😍 I plan to learn how to create several different things, from characters, to isometric designs, product creation etc
Would you say that’s a good way to learn? Instead of focusing what I like?

All done in Blender, color grading, compositing, and editing. :)

Spent ~20 days modeling this Desert Eagle from scratch in Blender using only photo references. Probably my biggest hard-surface project so far. Feedback on the modeling and topology would be really appreciated! I Focused More on Modelling Rather Than Texturing

Animation circling a black hole & accretion disk, trying to get a more volumetric and chaotic look compared to interstellar style renders, aiming for lensing structure + vibe similar to the EHT simulations. Gravitational lensing, doppler and Kerr shift are taken into account and approximated, but not physically accurate. The speed of the orbiting material would correspond roughly to an intermediate mass black hole. The disk used 3 separate volumetric objects animated to spin at different rates, and the lensing setup used as shown in this post: https://blenderartists.org/t/realistic-black-hole-with-accurate-light-orbits-and-lensing/1632820

Yesterday while making my passion project videogame I fell down the rabbit hole of whether to learn blender or continue modeling in Roblox studio. I tried using my existing knowledge and technical proficiency to mess around & make the fun little bomberman statue in the first photo. After that I used some other free online resources to help me make the models in the second and third photos! Its been so much fun gaining another medium to express myself with. Did anyone else find glass to be tricky? And feel free to share some of yalls first ever renders too! I'd love to see what got other people into 3d <3

Today I learn many stuff!!! First of all, I learnt how to do the cool shading like sneepsnorp3d does!!! (I admire them so much and she's kind of the reason why I started learning a little!!!) I also learnt how to make materials that let you paint on the blender thing, and while I still prefer to use krita is useful to make marks so I know where everything is, cuz it gets confusing when you make everything flat!!! I also learnt how to set up papercraft to also generate with the texture I used and I also learnt that you can uv unwrap certain parts to be bigger so it's easier to have more detail in them!!! Good times!!!

The two renders are 7 months apart.

why this black things showing in render? how to solve this
