My 5 Year Blender Progression - Complete Beginner to Grand Winner 2021

Donuts, no… but cakes and eclairs, yes! My 5-year Blender progress reel, starting from a complete 3D beginner in 2016, to being voted Grand Winner in the Exterior Architecture category for Best of Blender Artists 2021, sharing a Behind the Scenes article for BlenderNation, getting interviewed by a digital art magazine based in the US, and being selected for my first Art Exhibition at the London Art Biennale! #Blender #3dProgress #BlenderCommunity #Animation #3dModeling #Learning #Texturing #Rendering #ArtReels #3d #b3d #Artist #Progression #BlenderProgress #DavinciResolve Hey everyone, and welcome to the J'Arrive Studio channel! If some of the scenes went by too quickly, make sure to check out my Instagram and ArtStation portfolio! You can find handles and links below. I create all the assets that I use in my scenes - doing the modelling, texturing, lighting, and rigging to get these final renders. The exception to this are the cacti at 5:10 (I really can't remember their original source please forgive me), and some of the fruit in Marcel's Kitchen at 6:36 (from Andrew Price's poliigon.com). If you want to see what I'm up to now, head over to J'Arrive Art Ambience where I'm creating dynamic ambience animations in Blender and Unreal Engine for sleep, study, and relaxing. Want to see more?

Everything goes straight back into the art. https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted... --- Links: Instagram: lganis7 ArtStation: www.artstation.com/lauraganis YouTube:    • November Rain | Part of the J'Arrive Sleep...   Interview:    • Interviewing The Amazing  Dr. And 3D Artis...   BlenderNation: https://www.blendernation.com/2021/11...
