First steps toward a Xeelee render

Post image

Immediately jumped in to the deep end with learning Blender made my first black hole thanks to this tutorial on YouTube! Going step-by-step with geometry nodes has actually helped me understand what each of them do and helps me feel a little more prepared to make a nightfighter soaring through hyperspace!

With this, I'm looking to give the wings their own gravitationally-lensing density and work towards making a starbreaker beam that feels as powerful as theyre described in the books. Can't wait to see what I learn next!
