So I have made a terrible mistake. One that, to an outside observer, seems miniscule. But trust me when I tell you that if I’m ever found dead in my room, it\u2019ll be because my brain physically imploded. For those who don’t know, because everyone already knows that I can’t shut up, I have installed Blender. For those who super don’t know, blender is a digital modeling\/ animating software that is basically used to create any game nowadays. If there is a character you like, chances are that it was created in Blender from scratch. Now I’ve messed around with basic 3d modeling for printing and other stuff, but I was woefully unprepared for what was to come with blender. To the point I questioned my entire existence and fell into a deep hole of existential depression which somehow led to me thinking about who would care if I died in that chair at that exact moment. But that’s not the important part. The important part is WHY IS THERE NO STARTER TUTORIAL IN THE SOFTWARE. Even something basic. And its bothersome because you have people who can make something like this:and here I am stuck for thirty minutes looking at a cube.
Oh, and before you say “did you look up a tutorial\u201d yes, yes i did. You want to know how long it apparently takes to teach someone how to make a doughnut? FOUR HOURS. Four hours of watching a video, and then probably another two just trying to figure out what he’s talking about. And look at how many buttons there are. I can’t remember what all these do. I can barely remember half the functions of my current laptop. So this is my position and my plea for someone to aid me in either finding a blender course that is not just a four hour video, or to make the school make one. Personally I think we\u2019re only going to get the former here, but the latter is always an option. I mean seriously, is there no better way to learn this? Must I lock myself in a room for an entire day just to try to make a doughnut and a cup of coffee? What happened to all the easy 3d design stuff I was using before? If one such as yourself chooses to be tortured by this, go ahead and be my guest. Blender is free and I’m sure that you can find it from there. I downloaded it from steam, but I’m sure that there are plenty of other places where you can find it. And hey, maybe you can do better than me and actually start a project. Oh and if you want to spend four hours making a doughnut, I suggest you look up the tutorial for this year’s version.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
