Stylized shading in Blender - Paint
Hi, dear Patreon. This month I will be releasing a quick workflow to create a stylized shading in Blender similar to Arcane. All though you may find similar results around, this workflow will include Krita's new RGB brushes engine. Basically, you can feel the natural smudges and flow of the paint, and we'll use that to our advantage to create this stylized shader.This along with other thin...
How Blender is looking into the future of 2D animation
Hello, wonderful Patreon! This week I had the opportunity to be added by Ellliot Animation, and he shares in this video how they approach 2D animation in Blender!This retro-cartoon style has been present in many modern-animation series, and if you have the chance, please check out his video. It's very inspiring in the way they are developing tools for Blender (and speaking with the Blender fou...
Blender 3.1 Cycles X is faster x2 than 2.94.5!
Hello dear Patreon. Please do not think I abandoned our future character development "GHOST". On the contrary, I've been doing test speeds in Blender 3.1 and guess what? the speed is twice as fast to render with CYCLE settings. Which means it's even faster than what 2.79 used to offer us. All of that is great news. If you want to try it, go to the daily downloads: https://builder.b...

Why the Industry needs Blender
Activate CC>Auto translate>English in the above video. At 12:34 - The director is asked whether he likes the previz (previsualization) of the process for the movie cuts (the movie scenes) in the new Evangelion movies. He says "I got a lot of work to do", meaning it's not nearly the kind of quality he needs for the camera angles to tell the story.The camera is a CRUCIAL actor in your sc...

This same method can be replicated on Blender with no problem (it's just a mask on the factor of ...

If you're new to Blender and are accustomed to quickly explore and navigate your bones, here's a quick tip:To select your bones in a hierarchy, go to POSE mode and use:] (closing bracket) - To select the next bone i...
Everything starts with 2D design in a 3D Stylized Anime character

So if you're new as a Patreon supporter, it's likely I have...

Ramlethal Stylized Animation - Guilty Gear Strive
Hello, amazing Patreon! Today is the 18th, which (normally) sets my end date to deliver a .blend project completed. I chose to share the Goku .blend file because there have been requests for doing so, and also because I have never reviewed a completed DBZ model, even though it's stylized with the same method than Guilty Gear XRd (just a little bit more advanced). Switching gears, If you are ne...
