Blender.
Long time no post I guess, not much to say really I’ve been playing Darksiders and it is great. I absolutely love the art style and recommend it to anyone that reads this, suffice to say I’ve not done much else except Darksiders, work and learning how to model in Blender.
It is a fantastic free piece of software if you are unaware of it, on which you can create a wide variety of things.. as long as it is to do with 3D graphics, take a wander around their website and look at the beautiful pictures in the gallery, I’m too tired too talk in much detail about it at the moment but as long as you overlook its crazy interface (version 2.49 at any rate) then it is a gem. However, version 2.5 Alpha 0 is now out and it is even better, practice with either though as the majority of the controls are the same though 2.5 is more intuitive.
To learn Blender I recently signed up to Blender Cookie, a sub-site of CG Cookie, the tutorials on there are great and have really helped me. Below is a pair of headphones I made tonight following one of their tutorials, sub-surf modelling seems to be the way forward!
Soon if all things go well, I might even be able to get a weapon into Torchlight – which is something I struggled with at the weekend to no success.
I think that must be my inherent fail though.
