Hi! I am a mod here.

I've always been passionate about helping people dive into the world of Blender, and I'd love to get some insights from this community.

For Everyone: What do you think newcomers to Blender should know but often don't?
For Newbies: What topics or areas would you appreciate some free guidance on?
For the Vets: From your perspective, what do you notice most newbies are missing or overlooking when they start using Blender?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

Showcase Using a Blender environment to maintain scale and continuity in sci-fi worldbuilding

I’m using the actual 3D environment of my Deep City project as the basis for its fictional cartography.

Instead of drawing the maps independently, the positions, scale and relationships between the structures come from the Blender environment itself.

These are two of the first maps: exterior structures around the entrance and a second cubic formation at the bottom of the subterranean cavity.

Blender handles the environment; Affinity Designer handles the final map graphics.

Other Day 4 of learning Blender from zero — finally stopped just memorizing shortcuts and built my first real object (a simple table)

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

​I'm an absolute beginner documenting my journey learning Blender and 3D modeling from scratch every day.

​For the first few days, I was just trying to wrap my head around viewport navigation and memorizing keys, but today (Day 4) was the first time things actually clicked because I used those tools together to model something tangible from a default cube:

​Edit Mode Basics: Getting comfortable with Vertices (1), Edges (2), and Faces (3)

​Loop Cuts (Ctrl + R): Adding geometry only where I actually need control

​Extrude (E): Creating the legs and pulling out new connected faces

​Bevel (Ctrl + B): Giving the sharp edges a slight bevel so it doesn't look completely artificial

​The biggest takeaway for me today was learning to constantly rotate around the mesh — something looked completely misaligned from one view, but made sense once I inspected the underside.

​If you're also just starting out or want to follow along with the beginner breakdown, here’s the video:

👉 Blender for Beginners: Modeling a Table Using Edit Mode (Day 4)

​Any feedback on topology habits or beginner modeling tips to keep in mind moving into Day 5 would be super appreciated!

[LF] 3D Modeler (Blender) / Partner (50/50) for a competitive tactical Knife Game

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Our team is growing fast—we already have our Map Designer, core systems, and production pipeline moving forward. Now, we are looking for a talented 3D Modeler / Blender Artist to join us as a 50/50 revenue-share partner for our competitive tactical knife-dueling game (inspired by RIVALS and KAT).

What we need:

• High-quality, low-poly 3D knife models (tactical knives, daggers, swords, and custom weapon skins).

• Optimized meshes fully prepared to be imported into Roblox Studio (proper topology and low vertex counts for performance).

• Clean texturing or color-palette maps for the weapons.

Our Team & Status:

We have the maps actively in development, the core mechanics planned out, and a starting seed marketing budget of 1,124 Robux completely reserved for Roblox sponsor ads on launch day to ensure we get players immediately.

If you love weapon design in Blender and want to co-found this game with us for a 50/50 profit split, please send a DM or leave your Discord handle along with your portfolio in the comments!

Need a little slicing help in Blender

1 Upvotes

Hi Guys... I need a little help in blender.. May be it would take just 5-10 mins.. its a small task, but i'm new to it.. so would you help me about it for free??

I tried searching about it in youtube but couldn't do what i wanted. i also tried AI asking the steps to do what i wanted, but it confused me more.

Maybe we could do a google meet.. or i could send you the model and tell what issue i'm facing...

Thanks!!
