Add-on: Quick Rotate

This is barely an add-on but nonetheless something I've been finding very convenient. It's very simple: you press Shift R, then you press either X, Y, or Z to rotate your object by 90 degrees along the specified axis.

I can't think of any scene in which I haven't had to rotate stuff by precisely 90 degrees and either having to type it in which requires you to change your keyboard grip, or to hold ctrl and adjusting the rotation dial manually which takes time. Your precious time is gett...

This is quite a random asset but I just thought it was kind of cool and want it to share it with you guys.

Asset: Procedural Concrete (Geometry nodes)

Here's a distilled, fully geometry nodes version of the concrete I used in the project file I uploaded yesterday. I moved the remesh modifier and particle system into the same geometry nodes tool so you can just add it onto anything and it should work, UVs too.

I also made a longer v...

Brutalist crib - Project File

This render is based on the real life location "Sheets-Goldstein" house, designed by John Lautner.

This was really fun to make because everything is basically concrete. So as soon as I figured out a procedural way to model it I could just block everything out and play around with different shapes and not have to worry about UV unwrapping or tweaking shaders etc.

Feel free to do god knows what with it :)

KOOLHAAS collection (full res / uncompressed)

This is the latest piece I've been working on, inspired by the Dutch house designed by Rem Koolhaas. The art piece in the back is the album cover for Take Five by David Brubeck - a jazz classic.

Noise texture setup addon thing

Here's a little add-on that'll add a noise texture setup when you hit Alt-N. Idk if you guys'll find it useful or not and honestly It's not that crazy. But I like to optimize my workflow as much as possible and adding this same string of nodes is something I find myself doing way to often to not automate it.

It was a blast creating this one but goddamn it looked horrible at first.

Pro Lens 2.2 - Blender 4.4.0 compatibility

Here's an updated version of Pro Lens 2 that now works with Blender 4.4.0. I've also made a couple of smaller changes to make the whole thing a little more user friendly :)

Concrete painting nr.1 - Compositing breakdown

Here's that composting process video!

concrete painting nr.2

Hey folks! Hope y'all are well :) Here's the full res version, as always Instagram ain't it. I'm thinking of doing a compositing tutorial, gathering a few tricks I've used on these last two renders. I've lowkey been spending as much time in compositing has I've been in blender just going nuts over the smallest of details - It's a bit less noticeable on this one though.

Anyways, I've been wanting to dabble a bit in the architecture scene and this shot is supposed to take place in the "S...

its been a while..

Helllo everyone, its been way to long since I've posted here but I'm back!! To everybody who's supported me through this platform have dramatically changed my life and provided endless new opportunities for me to live in more alignment with my passions and goals. You guys are genuinely insane and I can't overstate how thankful I am :)) To you who are still subscribed even after 2 literal years of radio silence, I owe you a lot. As I mentioned on Instagram I've been getting that inspiration la...

Temporal denoising hack - Tutorial

Here's a trick I use to minimize noise artifacts and flickering. I see a lot of splotchy and flickery renders mostly due to low samples and hopefully this'll be able to help a little. (it works even better if you do it before denoising as you sort of get double the samples, but then you'd have to use an external denoiser)

The video i was talking about 

Batch convert materials to Principled V2 (Script)

Here's a script for batch converting all your desired materials to Principled V2 (this of course requires that you have the right blender version installed)

It's really nothing crazy but could probably be a little useful for someone wanting to transfer a whole scene to principled V2 :)

Short video on how to use the script 

Realistic light conservation in Blender! Principled V2

Finally blender is working on implementing accurate energy conservation and realistic light bounces! Here I'm showing some before and afters and how to use it.

My Blender startup file, updated

I honestly don't know where that human model is from so I don't know who to credit it for. My only contribution to the model itself is that I made his cheekz more voluptuous just in case you were wondering why he's so damn thicc. Anyways, this isn't anything crazy, just my start file. And again, IT IS NOT MY MODEL, I don't know if i should be putting it up here, wait no, I think its CC0 actually. Yeah i don't know, and I don't think it matters thaaaat much hopefully.

Creating visually pleasing city streets - Tutorial/Walkthrough

Here's a video where I talk about my thinking process when it comes to creating city streets and getting the right feeling and essence of them. Something I came to realize only a couple weeks back is how you can think of your 3d art almost like how a good painter does. That is, breaking scenes down into essential lines and shapes of color, focusing more on getting the feeling right through art direction rather than thinking inside the box.
