I've seen alot of people "wishing" they could make cc for the game but just wont because they dont know where to start or how to gainthe skill or that they are not knowledgeable enough

Listen.... Do you think i know everything there is to know about cc making??

NO

I started out by watching exactly 1/4th of the blender doughnut video and closed it out when i got bored after i learned blender Controls and everything before he gets to the sculpting part

Then from then on i just followed whatever tutorial duck duck go spat out for me that day

I STILL follow those tutorials till this day 3 years later for everything all the shadow bump specular maps all the hair frankmeshing all the clothes frank meshing recolors whight Transfer its all bookmarked tutorials pages that i have open once i sit down to make cc and close each gradually once im done with that step

Are my meshes perfect? NO FAR FROM IT they have issues sometimes i get lazy and skip steps (usually comes back to bite me in the ASS) but people still like them download them and use them so that should tell you something

It should tell you that you shouldn't stop yourself from learning blender Controls and fucking up those sims 4 meshes

You can do it

Trust me i know you can because i did it too

[fruitzapple]

Any tips for someone who wants to learn Blender?

thanks for the ask and yeah!

I think my #1 tip is when you get stuck look up youtube blender tutorials relevant to your project every time I have run into a road block on blender a youtube tutorial has saved me, I saved most of the tutorials that have helped me on this youtube playlist just for future reference for myself because I often forget the stuff I learn the first time implementing it into my own work but I realize that the playlist is probably a good tool for others too so feel free to check it out.

There's also a lot of good written info about blender on reddit and the user manual if you have better reading comprehension than me lol this comment on reddit is a really good example of how reddit can be really helpful

Have fun! Lots of people recommend starting on an easy blender tutorial like the classic doughnut and following it mostly to the letter and I get that if it's your first time opening blender but using the tools shown in a blender tutorial to make something you like, like your oc is really where you start to love the program and learn how to use it. At least that's how it worked for me, personally haha if I'm gonna spend months following tutorial/tutorials I need to be REALLY excited for the final product so make something you like with the tools given to you and that you find. Make what you draw, ocs, buildings, inventions, furries, plants, hahaha whatever makes you hyped about learning blender make that as many times as you need to tell you're happy.

back-to-school thoughts

When I was a kid, the end of the summer holidays always brought around a wave of excitement. As much as I loved the six weeks we got off, going back to school was a whole new level of excitement. Going back to school meant a new start (I think my brain still functions on a September-to-September calendar), seeing friends I hadn't seen in all summer, and the opportunity to reinvent myself.

I would spend hours upon hours watching 'DIY stationery tutorials' and 'What's in my Bag' videos to try and recreate my image in the days leading up to the beginning of the year. I'd collect all my newest pens and pencils (which I would inevitably lose before the Christmas holidays) and pack my bag and anxiously wait for 8am the next morning so I could run off to school.

I couldn't wait to see which teachers I'd have, who was in my classes, and how I'd stack up against the milestones of getting older.

Now - as an adult in university who pretty much hated her last few years of school - the last few weeks of summer are rife with stress. The simplicity of childhood excitement has been replaced with a complicated cocktail of deadlines, money stress, and the pressure to constantly perform.

Yeah, university can be fun. I love my friends, I love my freedom, and I love the satisfaction of achieving my dreams. But the joy of learning that I felt when I was younger often feels crushed beneath an avalanche of essays, group projects, and the constant mental math of wondering where this takes me.

I sometimes think about the younger version of me - who read academic journals for fun - and wonder if I'll ever recapture the carefree excitement of a new academic year.

Maybe it’s not about recreating that feeling but reimagining it. It’s not about colourful pencil cases or new backpacks anymore (although, I love me a nice, new notebook or some cute pens). It’s about finding small joys in the chaos - coffee with friends, a doughnut during exam season - and reminding myself that growth, no matter how daunting, is worth it.

So here’s to all of us still navigating education, whether you are at school or university. I hope that this year is the best it could possibly be, no matter what your best looks like.

Hello! I first need to say that I greatly admire your art, I love how you come up with different pieces every time, each more beautiful than the last, you're genuinely a huge inspiration <3 😭

I wanted to ask, do you have more input on how you do your blender papercut-like animations? I know you did a quick tutorial on an artfight piece last year but, how would you explain it to someone who's completely unfamiliar with the software?

I'm maybe asking a lot tho, so instead, do you have any video tutorials you recommend?

Thank you for all the kind words!! I appreciate it so <3 ;u;

I did learn solely off youtube, but it was a very very long time ago. I recommend learning the basics of creating meshes and navigating the menus - a lot of tutorials exist out there (but I don't have any specific one in mind cause it's been forever). I DO remember doing the notorious blender doughnut for my first model though!

Additional documentation/tutorial to look up for this is

transparent materials

shape keys

basic keyframing and rigging

I'm sorry I can't provide specifics.. but I tried to put together a very bad overview video myself for the Caged Wish piece to try to walk through it.

[ceramic-galanter]

starting to try out Blender, so of course I followed the doughnut tutorial. My computer is not equipped to handle this

[7r335-art]

MY FIRST EVER 3D RENDER!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've wanted to learn 3D art since 2019 but The Mental Illness TM Symbol has been stopping me... until yesterday!!!!!

I started with the classic doughnut tutorial because. Well. It's basically a rite of passage, isn't it? :P

[thehiyacinth]

I did the doughnut thing in blender!

First time really using blender, of course following blender guru's tutorial, and I think it turned out pretty good, although too realistic for my taste.

This was just a test thing, to learn to use the program, so I'm of course gonna go back to low-poly, because I prefer both the style and the process more than this more realistic style.

[breadambassador]

if/when you do decide to give blender a go, i recommend having an in-depth tutorial by your side, as i went in blind and it was quite painful :)

i know i’ll be making heavy use of tutorials for my second go…

o7 last time i tried i used the doughnut tutorial,, might do that one again sounds reasonable

i did also go work on some sewing instead of blender. and watch cinderellas castle ^_^

DIY Paper Coral Charm Peony

When West Elm Seattle asked me to design a paper flower workshop for February 13th — the day before Valentine’s Day — I immediately thought of Leslie Knope’s Galentine’s Day celebrations on Parks and Recreation. I loved the idea of creating a fun event to celebrate female friendship, and no flower seemed like a more fitting mascot for Galentine’s Day than the coral charm peony. It’s big, bold, bright, and stylish. It’s everything that sad grocery store roses are not.

I brought candy, gals brought pals, and we had a blast.

Project by Kate Alarcón:

In the interest of keeping the Galentine’s Day spirit alive year-round, I offer this tutorial. Order up some crepe paper from the wonderful Castle In the Air, invite some gals (and guys!) over, and whip up some peonies. (If you’d like to send one to a friend, but are more a paper flower admirer than a paper flower maker, I also have some finished flowers available in my shop.)

Finally, on the subject of wonderful gals: I’d like to give a shout-out to the very talented Natalie Lynne, who was the first flower maker I ever saw create a peony seed pod in this way. Check out her beautiful work on Instagram (@a_bloom_time)! —Kate Alarcón

A Note about the paper:

This peony is made up of layers of different weights and colors of crepe paper. The heavy crepe gives it most of its structure, while the fine and doublette crepe help it to look more delicate. If you’d like to try different weights and colors of crepe, don’t worry about layering them in exactly the same order. But some combination of heavier and lighter crepe will help to recreate the structure and texture of these. With the exception of the moss green from Papermart, I’ve used the color names from Castle in the Air to make ordering easier.

You will need:

-Fine crepe (30-60 gram) in corals and reds for the petals, and orange or yellow for the stamens. I’ve used “Raspberry,” “Red,” and “Orange” from Castle in the Air.

-Heavy crepe (160 or 180 gram) in corals, reds, and pinks. I’ve used: “Peachy Pink,” “Candy Apple,” “Pink Pansy,” and “Burgundy” from Castle in the Air, and “Moss Green” from Papermart.

-Doublette crepe in “Light/Dark Salmon”

-Aleene’s original tacky glue

-Stem wire (18 gauge, cloth covered)

-Template (download here)

A note about grain:

The grain of the crepe paper runs parallel to the roll or fold. Crepe paper stretches horizontally, but not vertically, so you will almost always cut petals with the grain, placing the template so that the tiny wrinkles in the paper run up and down the template, not across.

Creating the center:

Use template 1 to cut a small rectangle from the red fine crepe. Use your scissors to round the upper corners so they aren’t too sharp. Gently stretch the top edge of the rectangle. Dot a very small amount of glue on the lower two thirds of the rectangle, wrap it loosely around the stem wire so that the top third extends beyond the tip of the wire, and then scrunch the lower two thirds closely to the wire.

Cut a ¼” strip 10” long across the grain of your green crepe. I’ve used “Moss Green” from Paper Mart, but any medium green would be fine. Dab small dots of glue down the strip and attach it to the top of the wire, on top of the coral rectangle. You’ll wrap this piece around the wire to create an elongated ovoid shape. To achieve this, you’ll need to wrap the strip up and down the top inch of the wire, making sure that more of the layers end up in the middle.

Start wrapping from the top, holding the strip at a 45-degree angle to the wire. When you’ve covered about an inch and a half of the tip of the wire, start wrapping back toward the tip of the wire, again holding the strip at a 45-degree angle to the wire. When you reach the midpoint of the section of the wire you wrapped on the way down, hold the strip at a 90-degree angle and wrap the middle several times, creating a kind of doughnut around the mid point. Once you’ve got a nice, thick middle, continue wrapping toward the tip of the wire. Make one more pass up and down the pod to create a fairly smooth covering for your pod. This time, you don’t need to stop to thicken the middle. Snip any extra strip. Spread out the pod frill so that it’s not too compressed.

Repeat to create 2 more seedpods.

Cut a ¼” x 10” strip across the grain of the green crepe and dot with glue. Hold the three stems together using the strip to wrap them tightly from just below the pods to about three inches down the wire.

Stamens:

Using template 2, cut a rectangle from orange or yellow fine crepe. The short sides of the rectangle should run parallel to the grain of the paper, while the long side of the rectangle will go across the grain. Fold your orange rectangle in half horizontally, so that the two long ends line up. Unfold. This crease in your unfolded rectangle marks how far down to cut the fringe.

Now you’ll fold the rectangle in the opposite direction twice to create four layers, so that it takes fewer cuts to make the fringe. Fold it vertically so that the two shorter ends line up. Fold in half again, so that the two short ends line up with second fold. Your grain lines should be parallel to the folds.

Make a series of parallel cuts (about 1/8th inch apart) across the top edge of the rectangle to create a fringe. The cuts should stop at the crease you made when you first folded and unfolded your rectangle (this line is also marked on the template). Working in sections, gently twist the fringe in one direction, untwist and gently straighten with your fingers. Its fine if a few of the stamens fall off in the process.

Unfold the rectangle, and dot glue along the bottom edge beneath your fringe cuts. Wrap the fringe loosely around the stem twice so that the bottom of your cuts is just below the seedpods. Snip off any excess. Scrunch to adhere the paper tightly around the stem.

Cutting the petals:

The peony is made up of five rows or rounds of petals that radiate out from the center. The petals in each row are a different color and shape. The first and last rows are heavy crepe, which will stretch out much more than the lighter weights, so these templates are narrower.

For each row, I’ve listed which template to use, which paper to use, and how many you’ll need to cut to complete the row. Then, once you’ve made it all the way around, you’ll move to the instructions for the next row.

If you choose different paper for a variation of this peony, just be sure to match the heavy crepe templates with the heavy crepe.

Optional: I’ve found that substituting a bright bluish pink petal in heavy crepe (such as “Pink Pansy”) adds a nice highlight amongst all the coral. I use template 5 and make two of these pink petals. I like to insert one in rows 2 and 3, fairly close to each other. You’ll still want the same total number of petals for that row, so you’ll be substituting a petal, rather than adding an extra.

Row 1: template 3, 6 petals of light coral heavy crepe (“Peachy Pink”) Row 2: template 4, 6 petals of coral fine crepe (“Raspberry”) Row 3: template 4, 6 petals of doublette crepe (“Light/Dark Salmon”) Row 4: template 4, 7 petals of red fine crepe (“Red”) Row 5: template 6, 8 petals of dark pink heavy crepe (“Candy Apple”)

A petal from each layer before and after shaping.

Shaping the petals:

To create the cupped shape of the peony petals, hold the center of the upper third of the petal with two hands, between your thumbs and sides of your index fingers. The goal is to stretch the inner part of the petal, while leaving the rounded outer edge unstretched to create a little bowl. For the petals that are lobed, or heart-shaped, cup each lobe and then the area under the lobes. The fine crepe will only cup slightly, while the heavy crepe will give you the nice, dramatic cups that give the flower its structure.

Attaching the petals:

Dot glue along the bottom of the petal and apply just below the seedpod.

You’ll be able to feel the ridge where the pods end and the wire begins. Always push up into that ridge when you’re applying petals; this will counteract the tendency for the petals to gradually drift down the wire, creating a cone shape. Apply the petals evenly in rounds around the center. The precise degree of overlap is less important than having them evenly distributed around the flower.

The calyx:

Use template 7 to cut three shorter calyx pieces and template 8 to cut three longer calyx pieces from the “Burgundy” heavy crepe. Apply the shorter pieces evenly around the base of your peony, just as you did the petals. Apply the longer pieces so that they fall between the shorter pieces.

Wrapping the stem:

Cut a “Burgundy” ¼” x 12” strip across the grain and dot glue up and down the strip. Wrap the stems, covering the bottoms of the calyx, just underneath where the seedpods meet the wire, and then all the way to the bottom of the stems. This may require a few strips.

Finishing touches:

Curl back the long pieces of the calyx by scraping them between your thumb and the blade of your scissors, as though you were curling ribbon. Gently spread out any seed pod frills that have been compressed, and arrange the fringe so that it’s all standing up and evenly spaced. Straighten any petals that have been mussed, and use your thumbs to reshape any petals whose cups have been collapsed.

If you’d like a looser peony, stick your fingers between the first two layers down to where the petals meets the seedpods and gently spread, working your way all the way around the flower. Repeat for each layer.

Sorry if this is a bother, but I always see you uploading you (lovely)(gorgeous) head model edits for mass effect and stuff and was planning on doing a bg3 for myself. Since I saw that you were working on one (Lauren Bacall right?) I was wondering if you have any tips for people trying to do the same?

omg no bother at all!! thank you so much!

there is the down by the river server, full of very talented people and helpful resources and tutorials to help you along!

idk how experienced you are with blender but heres the doughnut tutorial which is a handy intro to the programme itself

for bg3 modding specific tutorials i really recommend padme4000's channel, she has video tutorials on importing/exporting meshes into blender, as well as extracting all the files you need from the game itself and links to the programmes you need in the descriptions of her videos

a nexus link to more of padme4000's resources and tutorials

here is another video on bg3 mesh editing

i hope these are a good starting point! honestly all my blender endeavours have been trial and error since i started messing around with it last year to create custom heads for mass effect :) im definitely not an expert but if u get stuck with anything im happy to try and help! good luck!

[shakballoonshack]

I'm learning Blender so I did the classic Doughnut tutorial. The goal of me learning blender and making the doughnut is to eventually be able to make balloon balloons with it, just a couple because I think it would be funny
