This tip made my artworks look better

Check your artwork in black and white! 

If the artwork is readable in grayscale, it will look good with colors too. Before I heard about this trick I felt quite lost when adding colors. I was just experimenting, but I didn't have anything to rely on. Viewing it in black and white helps you focus on the values, making it easier to decide if the colors will work together.

How to do this in Blender? Use the RGB to BW n...

This Blender Shader is the Secret to Magical 3D Art

Here's the tutorial. I finished it yaaaay 🥳

I hope you make awesome creations with this shader.

This video was a beast, I had to step out of my comfort zone to make this one because it has a different pacing and longer than my other videos. It took me 125 hours to finish it, and I was in flow state the entire time no distractions, nothing.

Let me know what you think about this longer format.

Thank you Patrons for your support, you made this possible! 🥰

It's time for work again

Happy New Year!

Quick update: I started working on the crystal tutorial again after the holiday break. It's been a long time since I edited a long form video for youtube, it's harder to keep my motivation up but I'll finish it eventually.

Stay tuned!

Happy Holidays to You ❄️

Do you wish for a white Christmas?

It was a really long time ago when we had a white Christmas here in Hungary, I was still a kid, so I made my own white Christmas in Blender to experience it, even if it's just virtual. 😄

I wish you a happy Holidays! Take your time to relax and enjoy this season!

Thank you for all your support this year 💙

💎 Testing the new crystal material

I'm working on a tutorial about the new crystal material, and this scene showcases the shader perfectly. Plus I made a painterly version using the kuwahara filter in the compositor.

What really enhances the effect is the lineart. It is set to Divide blend mode which adds a magical glow to the edges.

This shader is completely procedural, meaning you can adjust it to your needs.

Crystal Sword 💎

I plan to make a tutorial about the crystal material on Patreon.

Here's a lil story about this project:

I discovered a new crystal material so I had to make something to showcase it.

I realized I had an unfinished sword project from a year ago, so it was time to finish it.

When I applied the crystal material to the blade, I fell in love immediately (and literally jumped out of my chair from the excitement 😅).

Sooo....

Magic Crystal 💎

Which direction is it rotating in? 🤔

I found a "how to draw a magic crystal" guide by @ladykamimi and gave it a go in Blender.

No glass shader involved, it's just an emissive and transparent object with fancy shading.

I've always wanted to make magical stylized things but never knew where to begin, s...

Daisies Project Overview

In this video I explain the process of

• lighting the scene without lights to have more control,

• making lineart which looks hand-drawn,

• adding depth effect to have a separation between the background and foreground

and more valuable infos which will elevate your knowledge about making stylized scenes.

Comment if you have any questions.

This is necessary because if you decide to cancel you membership, I have no way letting you know about the update or it's tedious, that's why I decided to remove the CelesTools zip file from Patreon. It's better...

Making a Glitter Material is Actually Easy

In this video I explain how to make a glitter material in my ugly Christmas sweater.

If you have any questions lemme know in the comments.

Satisfying Slime

My sister had this idea whether I could recreate this bubbly 3D wallpaper trend popularized by @maddysgraphics but actually in a 3D software (bc it's usually made in Adobe Illustrator).

I liked the idea so I started to experiment, figured it out, and this is what I got. It's not my usual style but I had fun with it nonetheless.

Glitter material tutorial video is coming soon for Patrons only. 2024-11-27 13:53:50 +0000 UTC View Post

You might need to enable Brushstroke Tools in the extensions to be able to see the effect.
