HUGE 25% Easter Discount this Month

Hi Friends,

I wouldn´t try to talk you into a Membership, if I wasn´t convinced that it is a great Deal. 

Maybe you already recognized that I deliver quality content for almost a year now and I most definitely won´t slow down on it. This project means the world to me, you know. Sure, there are months which are a bit more intensive then others but in average, I share... A LOT. So you have my word, that the upcoming 12 months will be full of...

Make your Animations Loop Part 01

Hi Patrons,

I think it´s time that we talk about NFT´s right? I will make a start with this first video where I share some insights into my experiences so far, but foremost I want to share new Techniques with you that I learned along the way while making my new NFT "Crypto Bugs" (long sentence).   So let´s start with a basic looping animation technique before we make things a bit more complex next time.

New Training this Week

Hi Patrons,

This week we will sculpt a couple more Assets in an upcoming Sculpting Training.  And we will talk about some Lighting Techniques in a new "Master Lighting in 3D" lesson. 

I also need to apologize, but this month has been a bit work-intense so far, but be sure I will do my best to give you new quality content in March.

See you soon,

Markus

Sculpting with your Buddy 3DBONFIRE Part 02

Friday is Funday! 

Just stole this catchy phrase from motionpunk! Anyway, this is Part 02 of my Sculpting Training and I just wanted to kick it out before the weekend. So if you feel bored from netflix and videogames, why don´t you watch my tutorial?;-P

Have a nice weekend, Best

Markus

PS: I just recognized that I wrote !Scultping" in the title image... argh!

Sculpting with your Buddy

Hi Patrons,

I thought I can give you a little Sculpting Lesson for the weekend. So you have some new tools you can think about to put into your workflow.

I get to the point quickly in this lesson without too much theory stuff and explaining every little detail. I just thought: Let´s dive into it and have some fun! 

I hope you will like this one.

Thanks you, Best

I just love the Sculpting Tools in C4D!

Hi Patrons,

I just wanted to give you some updates on my latest efforts. First: Yesterday I ordered my new powerful workstation, so I will be able to show you more complex scenes, without struggling because of GPU limitations. Let me just say... thing will get a lot more faster from now on and you will benefit from this, too.

Also, March has been a bit wild so far, and I changed my approach towards my artworks just a little bit. My new direction is, to put more ti...

More Assets from my latest Artwork

Hi Patrons, 

Well, I... don´t know! I wasn´t sure if I should even share this, but maybe someone will find it useful. You never know, right?

Have Fun with it. 

PS: I know, I already shared the Plumbus but I modeled him 3 little friends to hang out with. Not my most valueable post, I know! Be sure, the next quality training is just arond the corner.

Assets/Scenefiles from my latest Artwork

Hi my dear Patrons,

I start today to share these pipes/cables from my latest Artwork "Crypto Hunter in the Land of the Plumbus" in the previous post. I know, the artwork is kind of ridiculous, but let´s not focus on me, being childish;-).

I will record  a tutorial on some techniques, but you know what: My old system almost exploded! System speed was really slow, that´s why I ordered a new up-to-date workstation. So I´m waiting for this one to arrive next week, because scen...

Some Assets I built for my latest NFT Artwork

Simple Room SceneFile

Hi Patrons,

one more scenefile to go. It´s a really simple room for light tests. Play with different HDRI´s and the OctaneSky in combination with the venetian blinds, to cast a beautiful shadow pattern into the room. Of course you need to add some objects into the scene and add textures to put more life into the scene, but the basics are already there.

Best, Markus

More, more, more!

Hi Patrons,

let´s celebrate the last days of february with more scenefiles! Maybe you already recognized that I´m big with sharing, so... let´s not wait until march with more content. I´ll just put these files out there, so you can play with them.

Just be sure... I can´t share the models and textures for which I don´t own the copyright. So you have to buy your own furnitures to make this scene more rich.

I use assets from different sites like poliigon, megascans, turbo...

"Reveal" Image Sequence for the Glas Reveal Effect Tutorial

Alright Patrons! 

You asked for it, and of course you get it! So for all of you who still haven´t seen the "Glass Reveal Effect" Tutorial... now would be a good time to watch the course! Or revisit it and watch it again. Sriously, these courses get better every time you watch them;-).

Use this image sequence in your material for a beautiful (yes, it´s one of my favorite words) reveal effect. 

X-Particles Glass Reveal Effect SceneFile

Hi my dear Patrons,

I am a bit late with this one! This is the scenefile for the Glass Reveal Effect Tutorial. I hope it will be still useful for all of you, who haven´t watched the training so far.
