My 1 Year Blender Progression

Hello hello! This is a little compilation of my Blender 3d renders I made in 1 year. It's nothing special, but this type of videos always motivated me in the beginning of my journey, so I thought it would be nice to do something like that too.

the sex toy model at 4:40 kinda took me by surprise lol

[@jimmyjaimes5708]

A year ago I started learning how to use blender, unfortunately I couldn't get beyond the donut tutorial. Seeing people like you inspires me to try again. Right now I'm 19 years old, I hope to be as good you and obviously not give up in the process.

[@ooffs_artflows]

Bro keep going fr lol I'm still learning blender too you'll get there 💪 💯

[@sonachine69]

I feel you. I started so many things in my life, but this "get beyond" part always stopped me right before I made any progress. Learning something is hard, and starting something new is even harder, but if you want to succeed - don't let your mind ruin things for you. You might feel like a total dumbass, and at the start, everything will seem just impossible. But if you are really determined - just switch off your thoughts, and continue doing what you doing. Don't track your progress 24/7, and believe me, if you are committed - progress will come no matter what. And that's the best feeling in the world - to win over your struggles. You don't have to be tryhard beast, just commit consistently - and you will see miracles (true story) So try again, and that time - hold a little longer, I know you got it. And don't aim at my level, I'm sure you can achieve even greater results - I'm still learning, after all. DO IT!!!!!!!!!!

Dude that's a hell of a progression! Great work!

[@sonachine69]

Thanks for the kind words, i really appreciate that🦀

[@klaus117gaming]

4:40 You forgot to add hair to your pink cactus 🌵

[@sonachine69]

Oops🙈

[@RocketChild]

Damn, such amazing progress and dedication. Congratulations!

[@sonachine69]

Thank you!!

[@user-fs9cl2yj7m]

Damn, this is so amazing. This is so inspiring and hopefully I ve met it in the right time cause I was nearly quiting but this video of urs has made think twice. Thank u for ur inspiration and ur progress.

[@sonachine69]

No quitting on my watch. Don't think twice - think thrice, I assure you, the experience of learning something new is beautiful, and you need to experience it yourself. And skills you learn will come in handy, so it's a win-win situation. Just hang in there💪

[@YoutubeExileNova]

Thats Some Insane level of progression i have seen so far, hope i get to that level one day ❤

[@kv3d172]

I have a lot to catch up to, i feel like you made so many nice looking models. You can be really proud of yourself!

[@sonachine69]

Thank you!

[@marmelad6414]

Скачала Blender чисто попробувати і тут натрапила на твоє відео. Це так мотивує! Цілий рік роботи і такі класні результати! Ти - молодець! Успіхів тобі у нових роботах!🥰

[@sonachine69]

Дякую за теплі слова, дуже приємно! Тобі також успіхів в нових починаннях. Я теж скачав Блендер без будь яких думок, чисто погратися, і щось мене попаяло так, що вже другий рік відлипнути не можу. Але не важливо граєшся ти, чи плануєш серйозно цим займатись - використай цей час із задоволенням, та насолоджуйся. Вчити щось нове завжди круто, особливо на початку🐊

[@akhilkc4506]

You hope to motivate attest one and you succeded. Nice progression . Keep doing wonderful and fun renders.

[@sonachine69]

[@JenN-fp8id]

Great progress! Imagine where you will be in another year

[@sonachine69]

Thank you, i'll do my best :>

[@LFSPharaoh]

Great work. Your texturing and lighting is awesome too. I want to get better at that.

[@sonachine69]

Thank you, it's really nice to hear. Try some tutorials on Derek Elliott's channel. I think he has the best lighting and texturing tutorials on the whole platform🐊

[@sonachine69]

And for the lighting specifically - there is a series about lighting on Blender Guru channel - extremely handy tips and fundamentals that will improve your lighting game. And if you are interested in product rendering and visualization - definitely visit Wenbo Zhao's channel - one of the most useful tutorials I've ever seen on the lighting

[@user-or2ts1mc6f]

Amazing work!!🤩 I'm new to blender. Also, I became 19 today. So I hope this year will be cool like this video. ^_^

[@captainsnow9839]

GREAT MOTIVATION FOR ME

[@melgrafixs]

Wow this was amazing inspiration! I’m currently working on my first donut 😁

[@sonachine69]

Thank you! Glad you like it! Oh, the first donut... that's really cool, all the fun stuff ahead, waiting for you. You got this!

[@guaponeela]

Good progress keep going. I started blender in nov 2022, because of job I got in game studio company. Now I can model 3d design which I learned on own.

[@sonachine69]

Thank you! Welcome to 3D, and have a great journey :>

[@akhilkc4506]

Nice to hear that you got a job in game stidio.

[@akhilkc4506]

Could you share what is your role in game studio

[@AMcreates01]

These types of videos inspire me too! What do you think were the most impactful tutorials or resources that you used along your journey?

[@followerofthetrain6336]

Overall not bad work. The random vibrator was a bit odd though

[@werce9120]

very good taste in music

[@sonachine69]

Thank you, haha! I always wanted to use this track somewhere. Haircuts for Man is pure perfection

[@ghost_town1011]

Bro I was watching and then I decided I wanted to scroll to the end to see the huge difference and the first thing I saw was the pink Cactus

[@sonachine69]

Pink cactus is truly my magnum opus, still to this day☝

[@ralphtompkins2694]

Great work. Keep it up!

[@sonachine69]

Thank you! Will do

[@shahbaze63]

at 2:27 ... wow... so nice model and artistic composition

[@sonachine69]

Thank you very much!

[@merle6803]

Amazing progress!

[@sonachine69]

Thank you!!

[@Smooth_Shading]

Nice work!

[@sonachine69]

Thank you!

[@Biestmax]

Считаю вибратор лучшей работой XD

[@katriinamaatta5941]

Wow! Well done! :)

[@sonachine69]

Thank you!!

[@EgyOutaku]

This is crazy man Btw can you tell where did you find these daily things on reddit Which aub reddit and if there is some discord servers it would be just good It would be a great help

[@sonachine69]

Thank you! Bad news, the thing is called r/Daily3D, and it's pretty much dead now. And I can't recommend any Discord servers either ;'(

[@bitlong4669]

Isn’t it addictive. I find myself pulling on verts all night. Lose track of time. I find it soothing for my OCD to get those perfect reflections. …. I have a problem. Is there such thing as CG anonymous?

[@franciscorosales6199]

I'm doing the chair tutorial of 2:35 xD

[@Beast.bhaiya]

Wow ... Fantastic work!! Keep it up I also started animation.. but iam little confused, Should I learn this on my own or take a course? Any suggestions please??

[@sonachine69]

Hey! Thank you, I appreciate your support. About animation - I believe you can learn anything on your own, with enough self-discipline. Binge-watch a lot of tutorials\timelapses, and then practice a lot. It's just that you'll need to google a lot when self-learning. On the other hand, if you have enough money taking a course or two wouldn't be a bad idea. But I strongly recommend courses with homework and feedback from your instructor - that's the most valuable thing in paid courses. Take a look at Learnsquared, they are amazing.

[@Beast.bhaiya]

@@sonachine69 thank-you so much!

[@Hawk_1]

After all everything Started from the Donut

[@sonachine69]

There is no other way☝

[@johnnysmith9677]

а как сейчас с блендером? на видео за год большой прогресс, интересно как сейчас

[@munkherdenesukhbaatar6645]

Cool, how many hours did you commit to reach this level of improvement on blender in a day? I am thinking about starting it a s a side hustle, so i need approximate calculation. Thank you

[@sonachine69]

Thank you! I never scheduled or tracked my progress, so I can't tell you the right number, sorry. That's the result of a very chaotic practice without any goal. Some days I spent 10+ hours on practice, and after that, I could easily procrastinate for weeks. If you can be somewhat consistent, and eager to learn - you will achieve much more in your first year!

[@munkherdenesukhbaatar6645]

You are life saver thank u❤ keep it up

[@tysonboss2072]

What is the subreddit for daily renders

[@sonachine69]

www.reddit.com/r/Daily3D/ Sorry for the late answer!

[@DERIOSH]

Дуже классно, мені 17 і я теж зацікавився Блендером)

[@sonachine69]

Дякую! 17 років - ідеальний час забити на навчання, і займатися сумнівними інтересами та захопленнями. Давай, цікався, вливайся, УкрБлендер ком'юніті тебе чекає

[@hoseinbebany]

Bty what r the tutorial u followed from YT

[@sonachine69]

A lot of tutorials from Blender Guru and Derek Elliott. I binge-watched and completed a lot of tutorials from these guys at the start, but I don't think I followed a lot of tutorials after that, just project-based learning, Googling the specific topics that I was having problems with along the way

[@bitlong4669]

I find after some number of tutorials you have to do it yourself. I like to see the tutorial intro, then try to do it myself. Then watch tutorial to see what kind of approach they took. If you just follow steps blindly, I find that I don’t retain the info.

[@krull1]

Здравствуй, какая область бро?Я из Харькова очень впечатлил АТБ)

[@sonachine69]

Привіт, Хмельницька область. Дякую, радий що сподобалось🔥. Рендер АТБ це швидкий скетч з дуже поганою топологією. Планую у найближчий час замоделити нормальну повноцінну сценку під таймлапс

[@circles3970]

за атб ультра респект
