30 Day Blender Challenge 🗡️
Back in 2020 when I was exploring Blender 3D, I threw a 30 day art challenge. It was super fun and I really loved. But the best part ? I survived the 30 days 😮💨
Blender 3D, The kickoff!
I hate to admit but I really think the Donut playlist by Blender Guru is a bit overrated that too for beginners. When I started out I found Ducky3D. That guy knew his stuff. He made the right balance between keeping it crisp, exploring new techniques, sticking to keeping a few familiar things on every tutorial, and oh the amazing outputs. If you knew him, you will see shades of his works in my initial phase of Blender outputs.
Few handpicked stunts😅from the challenge

So, How did the 30 days go you ask?
Those 30 days were like a crash course in consistency.
The first 5-7 days were easy to cope with and then began the actual test. I had to really push myself to sit and work. Ran out of ideas and concepts. And had to work twice than I even thought I would, to make it to the finish line.
Tried combining multiple concepts, took multiple inspirations for one piece of work, and so on. Anddd, Finally “Survived Beautifully”.
