Hi Creatives,be sure to check also this short 8 minutes lesson, where I talk about the Cubes Contest here on Patreon. I hope some of you will take part in it;-).

Isometric Cube Art Part 1

Hi Patrons,this is Part 1 of my new tutorials about Cubes. I just show you my workflow when it comes to selecting lights and materials. It´s a 43 minutes Beginners lesson. Next time we will build something a bit more complex:-).NMaybe I could have made this lesson a bit shorter, I´m sorry for that. I was just in th emiddle of designing and tested different light setups...Best Markus

Renderings out of Projectfile Cubes Art 01

And here is the proof how much fun it is to just move around in such a scene (projectfile just posted) and search for good angles. This way, you can produce a massive amount of cool renders out of one scene and amaze your client (that´s what I did).

Projectfile for Cube Art Lesson 1

Hi Patrons,let me provide you with a very special asset: It comes straight out of Houdini, because I have no idea how to produce these cube patterns ( based on on octree principle) in Cinema 4D.I will give you this cool cube sculpture and then you can go crazy with it. Of course I will go with you through it + some basic techniques in the upcoming tutorial part 1.We will use this file to study som...

It took mea little bit longer, but tomorrow we will finally start with "CUBES"

Hi Patrons,I am sorry for the little delay, but I needed to build a little bit more for this scene to make it really cool. As you can see... this first scene turned out a bit wild, but when you move the camera around, you will find beautiful shots everywhere.So... let´s start "CUBES" Training tomorrow and I will share a lot of my thoughts about this topic with you.Best,Markus

Cubes 01. Projectfile

Hi Patrons,One more projectfile for the weekend. I studied a course on learnsquared which is called "design for production" in my research about "high-tech cubes" and I learned some useful techniques along the way.Of course I gave it my own twist and went a bit crazy with the colors and lighting. Feel free to study my projectfile. Again, it´s simple stuff and when you go through i...

Simple Grid Creator

Hi Patrons,this setup is super simple but it´s just so useful when you want to create some additional grids around your cube artworks. Just move the field until you have something cool, that you want to add as an extra layer of detail around your cube setup.Simple, but... very soon you will have something that looks super complex. It´s all about the tasteful application of quite easy techniques ...

Projectfile "Crystal Cube"

But just to bridge the time until the next tutorial, I want to provide you with some of my projectfiles regarding this topic.I have a l...

Scenefile for the latest Training

This is my scenefile.Note: The cloth is static because the whole alembic animation was just too big to share it.

Search Engine will be fixed soon...

Hi Patrons,I just wanted to let you know... content is obviously growing day by day and patreon just comes with a "blog-structure". To make it easier to quickly filter content I need to fix the search engine. Just be sure, that at the moment it´s not working as it should and I have to go through the whole content and assign clever search words to them.Obviously not the most exciting task ...
