Zach here, With a new batch of news and inspiration from the 3D world. Today I’ll share a Blender Secrets tutorial on the Grid Fill tool, an anime-style Grease Pencil short, and a free game demo with retro vibes. Let’s dive in. ​Grid fill in Blender 4.5 has just Got Better.​Jan from Blender Secrets has published a great overview of the new revamped Grid Fill tool in Blender 4.5. Although it may seem like a small, basic modeling tool update, it brings so much new power to create models quickly. It can even be used as a quick retopology tool. ​Blender Grease Pencil Animation "Duel​"​Mathias Zamęcki made an amazing samurai fight scene with anime vibes in Blender. Using a combination of a 3D stylized environment and 2D hand-drawn animated characters in Grease Pencil. Which beautifully blends into a dynamic, dramatic battle that you should watch a few times just to appreciate the craftsmanship. ​Retro Game Demo made with Blender on Steam​Blender is already one of the top tools for independent game developers. This intriguing game, called ‘Deep Pixel Melancholy’, evokes 90s pixelated graphics nostalgia. It’s a classic point-and-click game about a person trapped in a time loop in a snowy and dark polar circle city. The graphics made in Blender are tastefully designed to teleport you to the past of low-resolution screens with dithered shadows and limited color palettes. The project looks like a work of passion and love from its creators. There's a free playable demo available on Steam, so you can have a taste of how the game will feel. If you’re a sucker for retro game vibes, I think you might love it. That’s all from me today, have a great weekend, and till next time. ~Zach |
