Blender Resources List - Tutorials, Tips and Best Practices




The purpose of this post is to share videos, articles and other resources that have been helpful to me in my journey of learning more about Blender. The software has been an amazing tool for both 2D and 3D works of mine.

I have a YouTube playlist with a lot of these videos saved, but unfortunately, there's no good way to organize or categorize them there without creating several separate playlists, which I do not want to do. Therefore, I thought I'd do that here and share it with y'all while at it.

Keep in mind that this is a living post and should be updated in the future as I find more useful resources. Also, make sure to also check any links for written resources available down below as they're often very informative and not so easy to find in video format.

Enjoy! ^^

Everything About My Process For The Comic Book Style

  I want to open up this article with a funny comment I received in one of my tweets that goes briefly over my process for the last Amy Rose drawing I did. It made me chuckle! Maybe I am a fool for sharing my secrets... unless it was my intention all along! After all, there aren't really any secrets as most things I do are done by several other artists as well. Also, even if it WAS a secret, why the hell would I keep it all for myself? I mean, maybe by keeping it I could be the only exclusive artist capable of doing this kind of artwork... Naah! It's just a matter of time and a little bit of effort for other artists to figure out my ways, and like I just said: it's not really much of a secret as several other artists draw in similar styles already. I actually see a lot of benefits in sharing my approach to drawings because this will help several artists to improve their skills or branch out in style. The world needs more artists, as well as the industry (animation, comics, ...

Character by @Amanda_Hedgehog . Artwork done as commission and modified for the sake of this post. Here's the original one. There are concepts in Art that are usually associated with disciplines such as painting, shapes, forms, composition, tonal values, but oftentimes are forgotten when thinking about lines. After all, lines are more than just simple strokes of a pen or pencil on a flat surface. The line has quality, different styles, a meaning. Lines can indicate depth, form, volume, and value. It can make or break a piece. Lines can be particularly difficult when we are just starting to draw as it requires accuracy but also looseness. It needs to flow and look confident in order to create a high-quality piece. It also needs to be simple for the sake of clarity and fluidity. It's easy to feel lost when we are just starting out, not knowing the reason what we are doing does not look as good as the artwork of other artists surrounding us. In this article, I will be sharing with...
