Blender

Blender is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software toolset used for creating 3D models, animations, simulations, and visual effects. It includes a wide range of features for 3D modeling, texturing, rendering, compositing, and motion tracking, as well as tools for video editing and game creation. Blender is used in a variety of industries, including film, television, gaming, architecture, and product design, and is popular with professionals and hobbyists alike for its flexibility and powerful features.

Starting out with Andrew Price's famous Donut Tutorial in 2020, I had a lot of fun with Blender and wanted to keep exploring. So I went on to learn more about 3D modeling, texturing and rendering, as well as some of its more advanced features. Motion tracking and compositing were also part of my repertoire, adding an extra layer of realism to my projects.

Using my experience with 3D modeling and texturing, I have created many different products, ranging from wine bottles and refrigerators to furniture and appliances. These models have been highly detailed and realistic.

For low poly projects, which can be very useful for game design and stylized visuals, I have also done a number of projects, some of which have been used in video games.

But there is still plenty more I am learning about Blender. Animation is one such area that I am still exploring, particularly geometry nodes and texture painting.

I am looking forward to making many more projects with Blender in the future.
