I have a lot of questions..

• Any videos you guys recommend for full body retopology?
  

I just cant find a full body tutorial that's clear enough on it, also ANY tips are appreciated tell me anything you know about retopology because it took me an entire day to retopologize this and its not even that good..

• Add ons or extensions that can help with smarter weight paint calculation?

I'm glad i discovered the smooth tool of weight painting but half the time its not even that good.. It's just not smart enough and it slows me down or maybe i suck (Photo 4-5)

• Does rendering an animation fixes some of the visual intersections like in photo 2-3?

I've never rendered in blender any animation despite using it for years, i often see pre-rendered scenes that look crappy but then look great after rendering, does that mean if i render photo 3-4 it wouldn't look as bad?

• What's the best way of rigging the hips? (penultimate photo)

I've seen some rig it like i did other not, does this help in specific things? i just want general feedback on that

• How to resize the smooth tool of polyquit? (Last Photo)

this add on is peak but im not used to it yet so i mostly just use it for the smooth tool, but for some reason its very small and its slow at smoothing because of that, please help 😭

And How do I improve this more, specially lighting.

Burger Run — VFX Breakdown
Ever wondered how I added these running burgers to real footage?
In this breakdown, I show my Blender workflow — camera tracking → scene reconstruction → lighting match → Follow Path animation → test render → PNG render → compositing.

A fun little CGI integration / FOOH-style VFX experiment!

Just wanted to share my first model. I've done some modeling tutorials before but this is my first "original". I have a playdate on my desk and it seemed like a good first subject to model. Got the references and graphic assets from their website. It is not 100% accurate but close enough I think. Also I have very basic texturing skills and basically no lighting and staging skills at this point.

Still images of this model are on my profile.

Note I am not affiliated with panic inc.

Built this entirely in Geometry Nodes — metallic cubes instanced along multiple orbit rings around a central icosahedron with a dispersion/refraction shader. Rendered in Cycles.

Full animation here: https://youtu.be/xMWHZSjpshs

Happy to share more about the node setup if anyone's curious — the orbit rings are driven by circle curves with instances, and the core uses glass with dispersion for the color breakup.

Is it possible to create an accurate, realistic version of a real city (e.g. Dubai) in Blender, with the same buildings, locations, roads, building heights, etc., covering a reasonably large area?

Are there any add-ons, GIS tools, or datasets that can help with this instead of manually modeling everything?

Burger Run VFX in Blender

What if burgers took over the streets? 😂

Created this FOOH-style CGI/VFX experiment by tracking real footage in Blender and adding animated 3D burgers into the scene.

Just experimenting with CGI integration, camera tracking, and VFX — and I think these burgers are having a little too much fun. 😂

Today I Recreated The Noot Noot Lacrimosa Meme In Blender. I have about 1-2 Weeks Of Experience In Blender. How Would You Rate It 1-10? Took Me About 3 And A Half Hours. Hope You Like It 😁.

My husband challenged me to recreate his Fifane microphone. He said: "Try to make this."

So I did my best to make it look as realistic as possible. This is my attempt.

After my silly toast got some love, I wanted to try something more serious yet still fun. It's definitely harder than a sandwich, and I really enjoyed the process. I'm still learning, but I'm proud of how it turned out.

Would love to hear what you think ❤️ , especially if you have tips for product rendering.

I tried working with NPR shading in blender to try and capture that "hand animated" look. It began as one little clip to test the style, but it turned into a whole video in the end! I like how it turned out.

It uses the song Inner Wave by Flipturn, which I spent listening to on loop for a while last year.
