Blender 5 gives us a new Array modifier and with it, the ability to easily place objects as instances along a Curve. Previously, it was done using a combination of Array and Curve modifiers, but it would deform the instances unless you used a workaround. #Blender #b3d #Blender3d

Adding holes to curved surfaces is one of the more challenging parts of 3D modeling. And getting the surface around the holes perfect can be really frustrating. That's where the Data Transfer modifier can be a great help. #b3D #blender3D #Blender

One easy way to create holes in 3D models, is by using a black and white texture. This is especially useful for cloth objects. However you can also turn it into geometry with thickness for 3D printing, with just a few modifiers. #Blender #b3d #Blender3D

Just a short reminder, that I still have a 30% early bird discount on my new anime girl course. Also, I finished the retopology lessons of my hard surface course, so that's a 17 hours course now. And more lessons planned. #b3d #Blender #blender3d

We all run into it at some point: We are zooming in on a small area of our model, but Blender doesn't want to go any further. Well, fortunately there's 5 easy solutions for this, as shown in this video.

Almost done with the "Pocket Blender" device modeling. Does anyone else feel like a lot of 3D modeling is just making holes? Or is it just me. #Blender #B3D #Blender3D

Ucupaint is an extension that comes with Blender (since 4.2) and that makes the whole texture painting process better and more nondestructive, using layers. #Blender #b3D #Blender3D #ucupaint

Part 2 of the updated workflow for Grease Pencil to base meshes. Very fun to use, if you plan to sculpt on the base mesh. #blender3D #B3D #Blender www.BlenderSecrets.org

This is an updated workflow for turning Grease Pencil strokes into a base mesh that can then be used for sculpting. The previous workflow used the Convert to Path option, which is now gone. #B3D #Blender3D #Blender
