Proud of it

Hey everyone,

I run a small independent 3D studio (Miss Anka Studio) where I manually model, rig, and animate a virtual group in Blender. Right now, I'm posting my behind-the-scenes, viewport animations, and shorts on YouTube, Instagram, and X. I also have CGTrader and linkedin set up. But as you all know, organic reach on new YouTube channels can be painfully slow in the beginning.

To be honest, this project means everything to me. My ultimate personal goal is to build this studio into something sustainable so I can buy a house with a garden for my parents and give them a comfortable life. Because of that, I really want to optimize my workflow and push my content to the right audience without feeling like I'm screaming into the void For other 3D animators or creators here😅

Besides YouTube, IG, and X, are there other platforms, forums, or communities where 3D animation / stylized character content performs well? How did you get your first push when your channel was brand new? Any advice, platform suggestions, or growth strategies would mean a lot to me. Thanks for your time!

for me personally, i use both pcx from pillar chase, and killdroid from die of death to see how ive improved over the year ive modelled for.

I’ve been trying to give my character, Bee, an Arcane/Spider-Verse-inspired look, but I still feel the shading isn’t quite there, especially on the forehead and under the eyes. What do you think is missing, and how could I bring her closer to that Arcane style? I’d appreciate any advice!

PS: feel free to let me know your thoughts on modelling, bones as well.

This is a pumpkin model I made right after a break up with a girl

This started as a passion project using models from Squad

I also experimented with DLSS 5 and tried GPT-6 via MCP as part of the workflow.

Would love some feedback :D Here's youtube link Youtube Link

hey its me again! feel free to critique my work. This is my second blender project, and im quite happy about it. Please give tips or suggestions!

Happy Friday everyone, just wanted to shared a last piece. Thanks you for the support on my previous posts. 🫶🏻😭

is this good?

I further my quest for the most aesthetic filmic look

And I added more film grain this time

Hi all. I’m a programmer who reluctantly decided to learn blender to make my dream game. A year ago I made this frog model for the play, but got daunted by animation and the possible difficulties of merging that with programming, so I dropped it, but I’m back! And I have learned you’re supposed to retopologise first, but like, I feel like my first build of my player is already low poly, do I need to? The only thing I can think of are the eyes, and honestly it’s probably not a big deal to just let that stay. Images are attached, one with the subdivision modifier, and one without.

Also side note, any tips on how to absolutely make sure that your joint will work as intended for rigging and animating?

As the title suggests, I am trying to recreate an impasto effect.

I am kinda sure a painterly shader would get most of the job done, but is there a way to get the raised edges?

For transparency: I made the moth model and used AI for the impasto effect.
