I've been using 3DS max for over a year now and thought I would make the leap to blender. Its a learning curve, but so far its impressed me. I've tried doing more TF2 modelling in Blender but came across an issue. I import the spy arms smd into blender, it sets the origin point in the centre of the screen as you can see,…
Hello, anyone using latest version of blender? Didn't use Blender in a while so not sure if the problem is in the Blender or something else. Every time I apply textures on the model viewport and UV editor start freezing up and it gets impossible to do anything, I noticed that it doesn't manage memory properly since after…
Welcome to Polycount (both of you!) I think your character concepts are great so far! One thing I always ask myself when reviewing concepts is... is this enough information for a 3D artist to reproduce the concept in 3D? And looking at your first couple character concepts, I'd say no. 3D artists need to see the character…
Hi Toolbag 4 Blender 3 I exported a model from Blender back to Toolbag for use in the viewer. In Toolbag the surface seemed bloated (I am guessing the normal map was the cause).

True, it isn't productive at all. However, employers should be held to a much higher standard of conduct compared to employees. Me saying they should block and move on isn't burning bridges.

For far too long many 3D artists have rejected working with Blender because of the difficulties to understand how to properly interact between the different animation editors. As a Blender Foundation Certified Trainer, I have the opportunity to listen to individual artists and studios say the Blender animation editors are…
Hello! I am looking for intermediate or advanced Blender users to help with the creation of a series of tutorials for the program. Lately, I have noticed there are not a lot of tutorials being created for Blender that beginners can effectively use. Also, there are not a lot of tutorials that are written specifically for…
http://www.neilblevins.com/cg_education/blended_box_mapping/blended_box_mapping.htm Wondering if this has been integrated or added to Blender. material nodes in the node editor. From my research, I found this: https://www.blendswap.com/blends/view/78446 Does still need to be downloaded and used? Or Blender has this now?…
Hey guys, I'm mainly a 2d guy but I also use Blender to set up reference for digital painting. I can sculpt and model adequately if I have to but I like to kitbash as much as possible for generic objects since I am only using it for reference. I haven't worked with draped figures before and now I am researching some…
