I'm looking for ways to use blender3d as some sort of terragen replacement. Basically, I want a way to quickly make a landscape shot of a rocky planet with a different atmospheric density, sun color, etc. Does anyone have good resources on the subject? The reason for this question is that needed some rendered skyboxes and…
Hi, For some context I do environment design (hobby) mainly, but I am starting to do more and more modelling instead of depending on others for models or purchased kits. I have been delving into making rocks both realistic ish (with brushes) and stylised with the base Blender brushes. I saw a Mark Kingsnorth retopo addon…
Hello A while back, I created this Encanto fan art—Mirabel’s room in Blender—and I was really proud of it at the time. But after revisiting it a few months later, I’m not as satisfied with it anymore. I’d love some fresh eyes and constructive feedback to understand what I could improve. Could you share your thoughts and…
Many thanks for the pointers @Eric Chadwick Unfortunately, I don't understand what you're asking exactly, so here is the normal map: By 'run a histogram on the original texture', do you mean like so? I must admit, I didn't pay too much mind in what color space the texture itself was being previewed in, as long the shading…
For the sideways issue, Blender is Z up like max and when you import everything has that 90 degrees in the rotation. Try the checkbox in your model import settings to bake axis conversion. If that doesn't help, make sure your tree is aligned to Unity space in Blender before you export. I used to have to do this in Max…
Hey, polycounters ! This tutorial is about HardSurface Modeling in Blender 2.8. I'll explain to you my process and the tools I use showing the entire modeling of the Sci-Fi Gun almost 2 hours of work. I also share some free plugin and tricks for making a hole, smooth transition...This tutorial is recommended for a…

this is either a colorspace issue - make sure you're outputting raw from painter and importing linear to blender (i don't know what blender calls it) a tangent basis issue - make sure your model has the same tangent data and triangulation for both the bake and the render meshes. if you're using fbx there's a tickybox for…
are you using a subdivision workflow? If not, it's certainly something you'd want to consider for such a detail heavy organic sculpt. I don't use blender for sculpting but my sketchbook, link in my sig, might be useful to you, and the principles of subdivision sculpting are likely interchangeable between zbrush and…
