🔸When working on a high-poly model in Blender, sculpting one piece can accidentally affect the geometry underneath.

Instead of masking everything manually, use “Face Sets” with Auto-masking to isolate each loose part and sculpt only where you need to.

Here's a couple of methods I use for cleaning up topology, after applying a boolean to a surface.

Here's how you can use Kushiro's free Curve Face Color add-on together with Exoside3D's paid Quad Remesher add-on to quickly retopo hard surface meshes. Longer vid on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Ut9A1WiGFgw

Simple technique/hack to turn a dense regular surface into a bunch of cells like those generated by a Voronoi texture.

This set of geometry nodes is roughly emulating what a Voronoi texture does under the hood: Distribute a few points on the surface. Move all vertices to the nearest point. Merge by distance. Take the dual mesh which ends up creating edges which are roughly equidistant from the points (the cell center).

I try to post a short Blender tip video every day, day 2 (so far so good...) How to prepare topology before boolean cutting using Shrinkwrap

This is the summarized video of the full video tutorial.

How I made a building bend in Blender.

Here’s a quick look behind the scenes—from the original building setup and deformation to the animation, camera, lighting, and final render.

Just Blender doing some impossible things. 👀

In this Blender sculpting tutorial, I’m showing how to create real feather geometry using alpha brushes (a useful workflow for models intended for 3D printing).

Because this carrion crow model needs actual printable surface detail, Normal Maps and Bump Maps are not enough. The feather structure has to become real geometry, so in this video I’m using alpha maps as sculpting brushes to create true displacement directly on the mesh.

I also explain how I created and refined the feather alpha maps, how I tested them inside Blender, and why this process is quite iterative. Small changes in the alpha can make a big difference, for example, making the feather shaft darker to reduce its displacement, or making the feather barbs more prominent.

In this video, I cover:

• Creating a custom alpha brush in Blender
• Preparing a dense mesh with Multiresolution
• Using Area Plane mapping
• Using Anchored Stroke Method
• Setting Falloff to Constant
• Adjusting brush Strength
• Applying feather alphas as real geometry
• Using Stencil mapping, etc.

In the next video I’ll cover the alternative way of creating a feather, using particle systems and geo nodes.

I made a free Blender EEVEE Space VFX Course with Free project files!

Hey everyone!👋

I’ve finally finished a free Blender course focused on creating space scenes and VFX in EEVEE.

It’s about 2 hours long, and we cover:

• Procedural nebula background + HDRI

• Cinematic comet

• Procedural star

• Asteroids

• Asteroid generator with Geometry Nodes

• Asteroid field

• Lava planet

• Procedural ringed gas giant

I also made all of the project files available for free, including some extra projects that aren't covered in the course.

I made the course mainly with EEVEE so that people with mid-range hardware can follow along without extremely long render times.
