Released my new Blender addon. Extrude simple vertex guides on a mesh and it generates piping with clean intersections and topology. Used it to model webbing in a fraction of the time it takes manually. Does most of the work and has hella shaping options.

My upcoming Blender Compositor Line Art addon offers a huge amount of control. It uses attributes and AOVs, meaning you can customize lines on the mesh or material level! But it also means complex setup. So I'm including options that make it easy to add and remove.

The Fondant Custom Normals v1.0.0 addon for Blender is finally out! Now you can fix most topology issues in your 3D anime and toon shading. Can be used directly in Blender, or as Custom Vertex Normals for game and vtuber models. Link in the next message. The basic addon is completely free. We will continue releasing more character tools in the near future, including an adjustable proxy mesh for anime faces.

Just recently thought of projecting some art onto my base mesh. Planning to finish it up and add it to my texturing portfolio. Still a lot of work ahead, really want to make it clean and polished.

Here is the Geometry Nodes Weighted Normals with Laplacian Blur on a full character (a vroid). It easily improves the shading even on game topology with almost no setup. I built this as part of my quest to improve real time toon shading. 3D anime models are popular, but use of dynamic light is rare even among high quality vtuber models. This is for several reasons, but a big one is simply that it takes a lot of Custom Normals work to make 3D cel shading not look like a jagged mess (other pieces of the puzzle are issues like deformations, multiple lights, etc). And fixing Normals is tedious, especially on existing game topology. I have focused on proxy meshes for priority areas like character faces, but they aren't an efficient solution for the whole body + outfit. I wanted something I could just throw on any model and make it at least not a jagged mess anymore even if it wasn't perfect. As you can see from this clip, this does that very well! And vertex groups can be used to control the style of the effect and power. It still can't smooth beyond what the topology density can support, but the topo itself is no longer a problem (for higher res, could be run on a subdivided version of the model and then baked to a Normal Map.) The only changes I made to this model were adding a weld modifier to merge split edges during interpolation, and a vertex group to select the skirt. I have not yet added full handling and logic for detecting edges with big angles like the skirt, or for handling boundaries like on the hair, so both those areas can get better too. You can also see that while it successfully smooths out the Face, it isn't really stylistically correct there. That is still best done with a proxy mesh to define a new shape. This is part of the tools I am working on for Fondant. We are putting together a Blender Addon to release this + a proxy mesh tool for the face, and are working on resolving other problems in-engine to fully bring dynamic light to real time 3D toon shading. Give us a follow, and send them a DM if you are interested in testing these tools as they develop!

I've spent the past few days recreating practically 1:1 versions of the most common Dreaming City materials in Blender by reading decompiled hlsl shader code. It supports vertex color and even has proper parallax, a rarity in Blender.

Did you know that in Blender you can quickly make pipes and cables by converting edges to curves? ✨ 1. Add a cube 2. Press M in edit mode to collapse it into a vertex 3. Extrude that vertex a couple of times with E 4. With everything selected press Ctrl+B,V to bevel corners 5.

Been using the new Claude 3.5 model as a tester and now that it is out, I can say it is very very impressive, and the "artifacts" that it generates are like a simpler version of Code Interpreter This is a real-time video of me creating a playable game and editing it with Claude

I just watched Grok Build create this Starship + Mechazilla model directly inside Blender from a single prompt I asked it to model Starship with Super Heavy, the upper stage, Raptor 3 engines, heat-shield tiles, detailed components and Mechazilla Then I watched it take control of my laptop, work inside Blender and build the entire thing right in front of me I refined a few details afterward, but this was the first version it produced from that one prompt A model like this used to take hours or even days of manual work....now i can describe what I want and literally watch it take shape in real time Grok Build is insanely helpful....you can literally give it a task and let it run autonomously on your laptop

Railway's new remote MCP (and the Railway Agent it accesses) are the best way for agents to work with everything in your Railway workspace. We released it last week and Cody De Arkland takes it and the new updates to the Railway CLI for a spin. Check it out 👇

With Forza Motorsport's new suite of accessibility options, there is a brand new feature called Blind Drive Assist. But what is it? How does it work? Here's a quick rundown of it in action! Shoutout to Brandon Cole: TLOU MK1 Forza Accessibility and the Turn 10 Studios team who worked a lot on this.

A second walk cycle attempt of my "Crooked Rex" Tyrannosaur character model, with a look at the inner workings of the rig. It features a partial muscle and skin simulation using the native cloth physics in Blender, influencing the main mesh via surface deform modifiers.

Blender 5 gives us a new Array modifier and with it, the ability to easily place objects as instances along a Curve. Previously, it was done using a combination of Array and Curve modifiers, but it would deform the instances unless you used a workaround. #Blender #b3d #Blender3d
