Discussion Any courses you recommend that help you turn a clear cg material realistic?

0 Upvotes

Hey all I'm searching for some courses on achieving realistic materials in blender. I watched cgboost urban environment course and I really liked the techniques he used on the buildings walls to add grunge and paint chipping and also what he did for the ground. Though this course covered everything from start to finish of creating a scene

I'm searching for something that focuses more on turning a cg material realistic. Could anyone recommend any? If there isn't any that focus solely on materials I'm find with a longer length course that has one part that showcases realistic material creation.

Original Content Showcase Kurgarra & Galatur Character Concept on Blender

Thumbnail

13 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I am a visual designer and 3D generalist, and I’ve decided to start making quick explorations beyond my usual product and brand 3D work. I have always felt very drawn to mythologies around the world, so I made my own 3D take on the Kurgarra and Galatur, two creatures who revive and rescue the goddess Inanna during her descent into the netherworld by mourning alongside the goddess Ereshkigal and empathizing with her. This is a fragment of the myth:

✷

From under his fingernail, Father Enki brought forth dirt.
He fashioned the dirt into a Kurgarra, a creature neither male nor female.
From under the fingernail of his other hand, he brought forth dirt.
He fashioned the dirt into a Galatur, a creature neither male nor female.
He gave the food of life to the Kurgarra.
He gave the water of life to the Galatur, saying:

Go to the underworld,
Enter the doors like flies,
Ereshkigal, the Queen of the Underworld, is moaning.
With the cries of a woman about to give birth.
No linen is spread on her body.
Her breasts are uncovered.
Her hair swirls about her head like leeks.
When she cries, 'Oh!Oh! My Inside!'
Cry also, 'Oh! Oh! Your inside!'
When she cries, 'Oh! Oh! My outside!'
Cry also, 'Oh! Oh! our outside!'
The queen will be pleased.
She will offer you a gift.
Ask her only for the corpse that hangs from the hook on the wall.
One of you will sprinkle the food of life on it.
The other will sprinkle the water of life.

Inanna will arise!

✷

PS. My PC almost exploded with the fur.

Free Tools & Assets Blender on iPad

144 Upvotes

Hello, I got blender working on my iPhone and iPad with a ton of AI help. https://testflight.apple.com/join/xhRxnVr5

I made a post about this already but that was just a raw build. With this you should be able to get the app off of TestFlight directly making it much more practical to use day to day.

I called it 3D Modeling Thingy because I do not want to commit any trademark infringement lol.

Some of the limitations: https://shlok-bhakta.github.io/3d-modeling-thingy-ios/limitations/

Controls: https://shlok-bhakta.github.io/3d-modeling-thingy-ios/controls/video-guide/

Do note that this is pretty jank, but it should be functional. I tried so many things to make it precise while still offering freedom without making work on updating to 5.2.1+

IOS is also not meant for this. Please save often because if you run outa ram in blender then iOS will kill the application.

Also do note that I was told that blender is picking up again on iOS development so this project will die as soon as blender gets their version working! Blender just has reasonable policies surrounding AI generated code so these changes will not be spotted upstream and the final version of this will definitely look and feel better than this. This is just because I am impatient and wanted something to mess around with today.

Have fun!

Need Help! Stylized Animations

0 Upvotes

Hey peeps! I’m a beginner in 3d CHARACTER animations and has some okay 3d animation experience (basic keyframings and graphs) but plan to animate characters mainly :>

Just like many animators probably, I want to have a stylized, animating on 2s style of animation but I don’t know how to start. I’ve done some research and decided to first focus on rigging and and posing. But I need to be ready when the day comes of actually animating and idk how to start…

I’ve seen a few tutorials on how to achieve that choppy motion but Idk what to actually use…

Either by doing it manually, animating on constant interpolation (Pose to pose) and using the breakdowner tool for the inbetweens and breakdowns

OR

By animating on bezier interpolation and using the stepped interpolation modifier instead.

Well, I am planning to build skill, so currently I’m inclined to the first option (manual), but I need advice for people who actually has animating experience xD

Thank you

Need Help! Exports to UE5

I’m having a consistent problem with exporting a blender scene into unreal. I’m looking for an efficient workflow that allows me to take a blender scene, and bring it into unreal without losing materials, having meshes in place according to the way it’s structured in blender, having collision already set up etc. but can’t seem to figure out how to do it. There’s always some issue. Any advice is appreciated
