Such a great test! This is one to keep an eye on to see future iterations of the results from these prompts, will AI ever even get anywhere near? 🤔

AMAZING! In several ways : * This video is AMAZING on an amazing number of levels. * Amazing that the algo has done us a disservice of this magnitude. * Amazing that this doesn't have thousands of likes. What's going on? C'mon peeps let's try to right a wrong! 💖

Did you know this simple hack for Eevee to render nicer (aka more realistic-looking) translucency? #b3d 👇 www.creativeshrimp.com/eevee-fake-t... - the tutorial #blender3d #animation #realtime #eevee #3d

Here i have a vertex rotating on the view axis, pivoting around the 3d cursor. I've made a circle to show the possible path of the vertex when it rotates. When i press Ctrl to snap (to the face) wouldnt we rather it snap to the point that circle intersects with the plane? 🤔

Quick Blender PSA: Did you know in #b3d you can get different framerate playbacks depending on which window you press play in? Also, if you have lots of nodes even if muted and unplugged that can make a difference? Color me intrigued! ✨

As for the tomorrow's planned release of Color Grading in Render Raw mini-course - we've also renamed the Resolve chat and support channels on our Discord to 📟🎨-color-grading-chat and support - makes it a broader church as @AidyBurrows3D mentioned 😃 #b3d discord.com/invite/nNReR... < our Discord

I know it's a tough job market out there, but I realize not a lot of people who work in AA\AAA know about WorkWithIndies- but it's probably one of the best places to find off-the-beaten-path listings that you might not come across on LinkedIn. www.workwithindies.com/categories/a...

Hey everyone, What's New in Blender 4.5 LTS! Official Overview is live! I'm talking about the Eevee changes in this video and @aidyburrows3d.bsky.social owned the compositor module overview! Thanks to @jonlampel.bsky.social for the opportunity! www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPhA... #b3d #blender3d #3d

Just to let you know: our free LUT pack for Resolve (AgX, Filmic, OpenDRT and other pro view transforms from #b3d and not only) is now available on Gumroad too 👇🧵 creativeshrimp.gumroad.com/l/agx-luts

Hey everyone, we've just shared a Cosmic Web Geometry Nodes setup for Blender. It is useful for creating superstructures resembling galactic filaments – that actually run super fast and are super well optimized thnx to @bradyajohnston.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjgu... #b3d #blender3d

A fantastic cosmic web #geonodes setup for Blender. It is useful for creating superstructures resembling galactic filaments – that actually run super fast. Based on the fastest Plexus by @bradyajohnston.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjgu... - the tutorial & the download #b3d #blender3d #3d

Really impressed with this lighting addon. Light wrangler, as useful for lights as node wrangler is for nodes @glebalexandrov.bsky.social breaks it down here : youtu.be/L-dVsmOlzhU?...

New quick #b3d environment tutorial. youtu.be/KMmdUeB2UcY KISS: a good Blender exercise for reducing distraction and endless iteration is to just keep it simple. 😗😃

Heads up for the amazing patreon folks, few new posts/videos just made live. 🥳 www.patreon.com/c/CreativeSh...

OUT TOMORROW! This took a surprisingly long time to put together and we shrimpcerely hope you enjoy it. 🙂

I wonder why height is not a bake option after #b3d v2.79 Or maybe a better question is why not add it as an option for cycles/eevee? I guess lack of demand? Does anyone miss this straightforward bake option? Rather than hacking it together with multires and shrinkwraps?

Wow, @aidyburrows3d.bsky.social noticed that one of the updates for Godot 4.4 includes AgX! 🤯 p.s. ACES tone mapping left, AgX right. The snapshot with other Godot changes in 4.4: godotengine.org/article/dev-... #AgX #godot #godotengine #realtime #gamedev

A simple yet powerful trick to transform your Blender scenes with easy-to-follow lighting techniques 🦐😊 www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCDi... p.s. can you also ring that bell icon or whatever it is on YouTube that makes you actually get notified about our videos? please 🥰 #b3d #3d #blender3d #lighting

Have you seen/downloaded our SuperNoise freebie 3d texture? #b3d #blender3d #3d creativeshrimp.gumroad.com/l/supernoise

Does anyone know how to rotate coord's in blender so that they never turn into streaks (as they do with the mapping node?) Here i'm simulating that of course we could just rotate the mesh in edit mode - but can that be done with vector nodes instead? 🤔

#b3d blueskiers! There's a new video drop on our Patreon. A very simple yet *very effective* lighting principle, to create a better-looking HDRI lighting in Blender, packed into a 17-min video. p.s. This technique itself is nothing new, still super useful for #3d. www.patreon.com/posts/use-th...

For extra ref & info around the same topic there's this great video from ages ago that pretty much sums it all up.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciXT... I'm currently just assuming that because of engines doing things slightly differently to blender that artifacts still happen in these extreme cases.

[1] Has anyone ever had much success exporting a completely smoothed 6 sided cube with a normal map that's baked from a hi-res beveled cube into e.g. #GodotEngine ? It's never advisable to rely so heavily on a normal map with these extreme gradients...

some cool blender/godot experiments! 🙂

💥Some stats for how the experiment with releasing the Blender-to-Resolve course for free with the possibility of donating (donut-ing 🍩) some $ has worked out for us at Creative Shrimp! 🦐 10871 downloads so far $13328 in donations in total $1.23 per download (averaged) 🧵 #b3d #3d #davinciresolve 1/?

@blender3d.bsky.social presents a new v4.3! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Knpv... It was an honor to present some changes in that video with: @harryblends.bsky.social, Christopher3D and Jonathan Lampel of @cgcookie.bsky.social Those guys totally nailed it, so much info in such a short time! 🤯 #b3d

Fun stuff basically! (even if the environments/ambience might at times have a slight ominous/ambiguous vibe :D)

Hey Bluesky! 🍰 Want to create realistic 3d? Together with @aidyburrows3d.bsky.social we make tutorials for Blender at CreativeShrimp.com. www.youtube.com/@GlebAlexand... #b3d #blender3d #3d

With this super simple Geometry Nodes setup you can simulate weathering streaks on your mesh using "rain" particles. This is a bit dressed-down, you can spice it up with some random values per particle for example. #b3d #geometrynodes #geonodes

Stuff from 2016. A bunch of hard surface modeling in Blender back in 2016. I remember talking to a well tutorial maker who scoffed when I said that I was using blender. He asked me "do you know that people look down on blender in the cg industry?". Today blender is widely adopted 😀. #b3d

Hey! вітаначкі 🍰 I'm a 3d artist, making stuff in Blender with @aidyburrows3d.bsky.social at Creative Shrimp and also making #b3d tutorials about making stuff.
