Shoe Photoscan

I finished photoscanning my shoe this morning to add to the photoscan of me. In the full body one the grass kinda messed up the shoe so I decided to make a separate one and just parent them to the feet bones of the rig. This has been retopologized and had the textures baked so it's nice an optimized. Enjoy! :)

Blender 2.93 Startup Files

Hey everyone! This is my startup file for Blender 2.93. It contains all the optimum settings for rendering to get your renders lightning fast and still high quality. It also contains the render setup with the file output nodes that I talk about in this week's video.

The output setup is designed specifically for using the renders in Nuke but will be fine in any software. It has an output for the main render and also a separate setup for Cryptomattes that will render simulatneously so you...

Alternate Realities Challenge - Project Files

Here's the blender files for my Alternate Realities challenge submission. If you want the nuke script I can remake it in Nuke NC and upload. Let me know!

As I said in the video, as this is still an active challenge please don't use any parts of my scene for your own submission. This is just to be used to have a look at how I made it. Enjoy!

Minimal ACES Colour Space List

I've spent the day going through the ACES config file and deleting all the colourspaces that aren't needed. It took ages deleting a chunk and then doing a test render to make sure the colours were still the same... But I think I've managed to get the list down to the absolute minimum it can be.

"role_data" which replaces "non-color data"

"role_matte_paint" replaces "sRGB"

"Utility_Linear_sRGB" is used for HDRIs

The other ones I don't use but when I deleted them they me...

Self-Washing Pots!

Here's the scene from today's video! This is a pretty good example of how I do a scene with CG objects. It's got the track, the HDRI, geo, how I render the shadows and reflections etc.

This scene also has some cool procedural animation on the pot and the brush that I did instead of spending ages hand animating it. And a cheeky cloth sim! Enjoy ;)

Space Render Challenge Scene

No idea if anyone is even interested in this but this is the scene from the live stream today that I created for the render challenge we're doing on Discord. Enjoy!

Render Test Scene

If anyone is interested in seeing how long this scene takes to render on their own computer, give it a try and see the differences between a consumer PC and a professional cloud machine :)

Wolverine Claws Rig

This is a custom made rig I created to streamline the animation. It's nothing mega complicated but it uses drivers and some constraints so you can close the fingers and extend the claws with just one slider. Pretty nifty!

Wolverine Video Project File

This is the actual scene with my tracking, animation and sparks etc. Enjoy!

My Blender Startup Template

I'm moving this over from my Etsy store just so everything's in one place. This has all my settings for optimized rendering at lower samples, the compositing setup for rendering to multilayer EXRs, all the channels I enable for rendering etc.

To make this your default startup, open this file then go to file, defaults, save startup template. And then whenever you open blender it will load these settings!

Enjoy!
