Watch on YouTube 1 hour. It honestly took me all of 1 hour to model this character. Less than an hour, actually. Grimace also only took about an hour. Birdie and Hamburgler were all day affairs, but this one and Grimace were only 1 hour. And to be fair I was making these designs from an existing design, and I …
Watch on YouTube If you look carefully on the editing Joe footage, I’ve got my mic blocking the ironing board. Cheap tactics so I don’t have to green screen. This video took a lot more effort to put together than it should have, and now that I’m looking at it, it’s kind of all over the place. Two rants in …
Watch on YouTube On the one hand, I should have practiced doing this once before hitting record. That way I would have known the peg thing wouldn’t have worked. But then again, you all wouldn’t have gotten to see me struggle and course correct. And in some ways I want the real-ness of that to be what this second channel …
Watch on YouTube Others have done more scientific testing with other materials. In fact CNC kitchen did many excellent videos about printing stronger, and I love his video series. However, he skipped on the printing TPU solid options, and I think that’s a testament to how under utilized this material is. Of course this all depends on what your definition …
Watch on YouTube And of course the day I’m editing this I hear about 3 other fairs I’d like to go to. ERRF announced that they were going to announce a date. MRRF announced they’re going to be June 23-25. The Sanjay Reprap Festival in the UK announced December 2nd and 3rd. That one is less likely, but still. And …
Watch on YouTube This was not the video I was planning on making tonight. My goal was to record a video for the main channel. But the weather lately has been so weird, and it’s too cold to record in the main shed. So I pulled up the green screen and recorded a Blender Tutorial instead. That’s what this channel …
Watch on YouTube I’ve decided to commit to a face in my videos to see if that helps them. It definitely makes it easier to keep things moving when there’s nothing going on screen, especially with the intros and whatnot. Big thanks to Josh JRT3D of the Recreator3D project, I’ve had a bit of a project this week in figuring …
Watch on YouTube The first time I saw smooth shading it was called “phong” shading, and it was used on the video game “Tie Fighter”. And I thought it looked terrible back then. But people were excited about it. And it’s been with us ever since. Of course if your base mesh is already smooth enough, this can be the …
Watch on YouTube After the print and support removal fiasco, I decided the model needed more beefy legs. So the version you can download will be iterated on the one seen in this video. The big question of this video is “Which character should I do next?” and I’m still not sure which one I want to do to finish …
Watch on YouTube I made an entirely different octopus for the thumbnail. I have no idea what to say about that. I just wanted to use that line in the thumbnail. With this video I have no more videos in the pipe waiting to upload for the Blender for 3DPrinting channel. The pipeline has been clogged somewhat with a video …
