The donut tutorial, new post
Don't want to keep reblogging the first post so this is a new thread.
Here are links to the first reblog: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4
I recommend following the links in case there are edits in each part.
In Part 4 I was busy duplicating springle to make .001, .002, .003, and now .004. .004 is also bent, but less so.
back in object mode (tab -> object mode) we're selecting all the sprinkles with left click and press m to add to a new collection
ta da, the sprinkles are now in their own thing. woops, idk why the camera is off on one of them, although it doesnt matter for now ill turn it back on.
okay so i hit / to see the rest of the objects, clicked the frosting so i can look at its geometry nodes again, and then left click and drag the Collection into the geometry nodes section.
connected the collection info box to instance and checked some boxes as shown
this is the full geometry node setup. note the arrow pointing to Density Max which will adjust how dense our sprinkles are.
cool, now we have different size and shape of springle.
however i decided ALL of the sprinkles are too big. so i clicked "springle" and shift+clicked "springle.004" to select them all. Then I hit / and tab -> edit mode. hit a to select all.
turned back on the donut so i could see the size of the sprinkles while i shrank them. i just shrank them a tiny bit.
nice, now i can turn up the density of the sprinkles without worrying about them looking too chunky.
time to make sprinkles a color. clicked the first springle for no particular reason and hit new
trans rights donut
select springle, then shift select springle.004 to select all the sprinkles. "springle" is in orange and the rest are in red. ctrl + L to open link menu and hit link materials.
now, while the springle is selected, go to shader editor
shift + add object info node, Shift + add color ramp. Plug random -> Fac and Color -> color. In the color ramp window, switched the box next to RGB to "Constant" (default is Linear); used the + in the color ramp window to add more colors. now the sprinkles say trans rights.
I went back and duplicated one of the sprinkles and made springle.006, which is an EVEN SMALLER sprinkle. shift + d, tab -> edit mode, left click and drag to select and g to grab and move the sprinkle so its smaller.
shift + a to make a new cylinder
in the add cylinder menu make the cylinder have very small amounts of vertices and extremely small. you can see the little polygons on the donut.
hit / to only edit the polygons. Numpad 7 to straight down. Press the 3 key to go to face select. Select each face individually and press e to extrude straight out.
selected the end rectangle and shrank it down really small
Went to the modifier section and hit add modifier and added subdivision. changed the Levels Viewport to 2 to make it smoother later on.
Pressed 1 key to select vertices again and shrank the middle of the star a bit
also pressed a to select all vertices, press 1 to look at the front, and move the sprinkle up. Also made the whole thing a bit smaller.
y to see the rest of the donut. added a new material just for the star. I could have made the stars be multiple colors but i wanted them to stand out and be the same color.
ok select donut then select frosting. ctrl + p to parent. now we can move the whole donut together.
i dressed up the scene a bit. the plane is now an L-shaped platform. There are three lights, the one in the back is a little farther away.
hovering donut
im tired, ill have to come back to this later

Taxing
I cursed my month,
Chose chaotic words,
And found the month insane.
Appollo struck me,
Dictated my prompts,
And shattered pieces remain.
These days have been too taxing,
Too little time for relaxing,
No time given for me to rest,
Each day becoming another test.
Don't get me wrong, it's pleasant,
Treats and experiences constant,
But where's the peace and quiet,
Those still moments we could get?
