You've probably seen these infinity / non-euclidean / impossible / 3D NFT cards on different marketplaces and you wondered how can I do that, well this video is the answer.
In this video I'm showing you how you can make the impossible possible in Blender Eevee.
Usually this kind of effect is achieved by masking but what if I told you you didn't need to mask anything, you didn't even have to touch the compositor tab, with this technique you can preview what you're doing in the viewport, pretty cool, huh.
I'm also showing you how to make procedural sparkling stars and fake reflections without a light source, so it's node based.
In the end you will know how to export these kind of animations, I'm using the video sequence editor inside Blender.

I forgot to mention to enable Film>Transparent in the Render properties so the background is fully transparent (grey object is gone).

[@ChristianGrossCG]

No you didn't 🙈3:10 love the shader, thanks mate!

[@levimagony]

@@ChristianGrossCG well yes, but it should have been in the beginning of the video, and i should have said this explicitly why you need to do this, anyway I'm glad you like the shader 😉

[@EllaBArt-zp1wn]

You rhyming your way out of the shading/reflection method caught me off guard and I was happily surprised

[@xDaShaanx]

You are one of those gems on youtube who has a tremendous amount of knowledge with an ultimate level of humor as well. I hope your channel blows up with subscribers. Thanks for the tutorials.

Wonderful tutorial, thank you! If anyone else is having issues with the outside of the impossible space still being visible, make sure Transparent is checked in Film in your Render Properties. Looking forward to more tutorials like this one :)

[@agdigiart7407]

And how to bevel that corners so perfect.this card is Blender beveling or to some other program like photoshop or illustrator?

[@levimagony]

Blender beveling

[@simondavis4259]

Is there a way to be able to see the back side of the card with this technique? Like can you do a 360° rotation animation of the card?

[@levimagony]

Yes, there's a really sketchy workaround because of eevee's really weird limitation.

[@Karen_Gar]

2:50 nice rap dude~ 😎🔥

[@levimagony]

😅

[@jammyIsLost]

at 2:33, connecting the voronoi texture to the mix shader does nothing for me D:

does anyone know how to achieve this effect in cycles ?

[@fa1489]

hello I tried your video tips! very useful thanks! But I cant rendering without cube. there are black shadow and wall my projects can i ask some solution 🙏 ? The cube will also appear in the rendered image. sorry about my English is bad thank you ! your another video is also very cute and 😆

[@basejumperdx4573]

amazing sir more shading tutorials

[@levimagony]

Thanks.

[@its_akwart7715]

is there a way to put thing behind (so it goes through the impossible space) but keep it visible when you rotate around ? love your tuto btw

[@levimagony]

You mean when you look it from behind you can see the back of the card but not the objects inside the card?

[@its_akwart7715]

imagine you make 2 card and want to put one behind the other, it will clip through the "inside" of the front card doesn't it ? is there a way to make it work ?@@levimagony

[@Kittycathead]

i have blender 3.1 and the normals thing isn't working ;-; what do i do edit: nvm i obeyed the pinned comment and it worked

Bruhh..i got notification 1 day later...😂...but awesome tutorial just like others✌️

Can this effect be used on an AR target image?

I don't know 🤷‍♀ try it out

[@avexoidavex3577]

1:07 I got a gray object behind the phone instead of a transparent object. Although I did everything as you did in the video. Blender 3.0.0 Alpha Such inconsistencies always discourage the study of programs. It is not the first time I repeat after the teacher, but the result is not the same as his(((

[@levimagony]

Check Film>transparent in the render properties, I forgot to mention this.

[@avexoidavex3577]

@@levimagony Thank you, but nothing has changed. I tried Blender 2.82 and it didn't work either. That's weird.

[@didiXxXify]

hey can you make this tuturial step by step slower and without that many cuts ? :/ it is so hard to understand to mutch haotic

[@HiImKyle]

What if you view the backside of the card though

[@levimagony]

you don't see the card only transparent pixels because the holdout object hides it

[@HiImKyle]

@@levimagony So would it not be possible to do this with the rear of the card in one project or is that a 2 project/collection only thing, I've been wanting to do this but a 360 for a while but cant figure out how to go about doing the rear as well

[@levimagony]

@@HiImKyle you can do it in one project if you cleverly keyframe the things, but it's usually done with mixing two scenes with a mask, a front and a back. I found a way to view the front and the back of the card in the viewport just like you want it to but it's viewport only and it's not perfect. So use masks instead that's way cleaner.

[@L31415]

axyeннo!

[@retroeshop1681]

Nice one haha
