From a stick figure sketch to final render, I show you my process for translating an art idea into Blender. I also talk about my journey to becoming a better artist…including all the issues I run into along the way and how I get around them.
In the end, I go back to the artwork – after some time had passed – and give it a round of honest self-critique
? I created this artwork for the occasion of Blender Market’s spring sale in 2021. Because of that, I used quite a few assets and tools from Blender Market – you can find them all there (https://blendermarket.com).
