Did you know that in Blender you can easily make insets with the 'Intersect Knife' operator? ✨ 1. Select the geometry you want to cut out 2. Press Ctrl+F,K 3. Remove the original geometry and select the newly cut faces 4. Press Ctrl+F,F to extrude along normals Important: when you're extruding faces along normals, be sure to also press S after you press Ctrl+F,F to enable the "Even Thickness" option for a better result! So the full shortcut is Ctrl+F,F,S (yes, really) #b3d

Did you know that in Blender you can easily boolean in edit mode without any modifiers? ✨ 1. Select the geometry you want to cut out 2. Press Ctrl+F,R 3. ??? 4. Profit! Important: Make sure you don't have any coplanar faces when you boolean, always pre-scale things a little bit to make sure the geometry you want to cut out sticks out of geometry you want to cut out FROM. Not even the new "Exact" solver can handle coplanar faces #b3d

Did you know that in Blender you can easily make pillows with the 'Cloth' modifier? ✨ 1. Select the object that's gonna be beneath your pillow 2. Press 'Collision' on the physics tab 3. Add a cube and add some loops to it with Ctrl+R 4. Press 'Cloth' on the physics tab 5. Enable 'Pressure' and set the custom target volume to 1. You can tweak this value depending on how big your pillow is 6. Decrease the collision distance in 'Object Collisions' 7. Press space to play the animation 8. Press Ctrl+3 to add a subdiv modifier with 3 levels to make it look smoother! You can choose a frame that you like and apply the 'Cloth' modifier to make it into a static mesh by going to the Modifiers tab, hovering over the 'Cloth' Modifier and pressing Ctrl+A! For better results add more loops to your original mesh! ✨ #b3d

Did you know that in Blender you can have edge highlighting and ambient occlusion right in the regular 'Solid' shading mode? ✨ People were asking about my viewport shading settings, so here they are! 1. Press the small button on the top right of your viewport 2. Check 'Cavity', and set the type to 'Both'. World Space 'Valley' acts exactly like ambient occlusion. I like to disable the 'Ridge' here though, because inverted AO doesn't make sense to me visually 3. I also usually keep the 'Shadow' enabled for extra definition, but keep in mind that this is performance-heavy, and if you have millions of polys you may see stuttering 4. I also like to enable 'Backface Culling'. It's not uncommon to produce inverted geometry when you model. This setting allows me to see it immediately, and thanks to that, my geometry is always correct when I export it to Unity! 5. You can also select a different studio lighting preset, or go with a matcap if that's something you're into! 🚀 #b3d
