None of you are going to make it in the 3D industry. The industry doesn’t want you, your “style” is irrelevant, and your “passion” means nothing. Studios are drowning in Chinese portfolios better than yours. AI is already doing your job faster than you. And no, your donut, your anime bust, or your cyberpunk alleyway doesn’t make you special. You’re one of thousands churning out the same crap hoping for validation. Entry level offers are basically nonexistent. They only want seniors with industry experience.

Meanwhile plumbers are raking in more money than any of you will ever touch in 3D. They get paid on the clock, not in “exposure.” They don’t fight for scraps on freelance boards. They don’t watch their skillset become obsolete overnight because Autodesk decided to change their licensing model. A plumber apprentice makes more in a week than you do in a month of Fiverr commissions.

You’re not a future Pixar artist. You’re not a visionary. You’re wasting years staring at a viewport making fake pipes when you could be fixing real ones for real money. In four years, a plumbing apprentice has a house and a stable career. In four years, you’ll still be on /3/, posting “rate my topology” and seething about why no one hires you.

Stop coping. Quit 3D. Pick up a wrench and complete your plumbers apprenticeship.

Try something like this if you want to use only shader nodes. The custom property "prop" controls which offset is displayed. I used a rectangular power of two texture because it's apparently best to use such textures if you intend to use a realtime engine. "prop" is 5.0 in the screenshot, so it goes from 0 (A1) -> 1 (A3) -> 2 (A5) -> 3 (A7) -> 4 (C1) -> 5 (C3). If you were to animate your character changing expressions, you'd animate that property.

I upgraded to an RX 6650 XT a while ago. It's fine for gaming at 1080p, but once I got into 3DCG work now it's showing it's lackluster performance. Rendering is slow, VRAM is short, and compared to NVIDIA offerings, the AMD cards just don't excel in 3DCG.

I got a 500W PSU and am running Ubuntu, so I'm a bit afraid of changing to NVIDIA drivers. What do I upgrade so I can properly dive into complex animated scenes and shit. Also I got a budget of like $500-600 or so.

>what do I upgrade so I can properly dive into complex animated scenes and shit
$500 dollar upgrade just for your gpu isn't going to be worth much with today's pricing scams. spend time maximizing your performance on low end hardware instead. you'll get even more bang for your buck when you do upgrade. For now you've got 8gb vram and its gddr6 vram which is more than enough for small indie projects. Get more actual RAM (if you don't have minimum 32 gb wtf are you doing complaining about performance) but more importantly is the speed. Get the fastest ram your mobo will support. Also you're probably bottlenecking your cpu and I am willing to bet you'd need a total system makeover with that 500w piss-u you've got
you can't claim your pic is "unrel" when it showcases how little you care about 3d art to begin with. more performance will not suddenly make you an artist
>>
>>1018496
I threw that together just for the thread thumbnail. I do do actual complex work, but we all get lazy and I ain't gonna make a high effort thumbnail for a shitty 4chan thread. And yes, I got 32GB crammed in my AM4 system. But as I worked, I noticed my VRAM touching an uncomfortable ceiling with only a few higher quality models. CPU is a Ryzen 7 5800X. I could add an extra 100 for a better PSU to tag along with it.

>>1018496
Rendering with anything below a Nvdiot 3000 serie and below 16gb of vram is just cruel.
Bright side? You have plenty of time left to do you chores!

Gentlemen, may I propose a shared learning experience?

Here's how it works:
- a subject matter is chosen, and anons participating create each their own rendition of it;
- the exercise is divided in "phases", for each phase we shall set a deadline; once it's reached we move onto the next phase, and so on and so forth;
- this exercise is aimed at giving participants an opportunity to learn about the topic at hand; anons may ask ITT information which may fill their deficiencies, if they're feeling generous others might just give you a hand by providing answers that are focused and concise (cut the fat lads, time is money), THAT IS if they feel they got anything useful to share, if they don't then they shouldn't feel obligated to. Even then, don't count too much on that, some anons may only be in it for the exercise.

With that out of the way, I propose participants create their own bedroom within their 3D program of choice. If you already have something like that please refrain from posting it, this thread is intended for those making one from scratch, alternatively you can make a new one at the same pace as us.
Make it any way you like: inspired by how your bedroom actually looks irl or create the one you'd like to have but can't afford to, or create a sci-fi or fantasy themed one, anything goes.

Current phase is:
>Phase 1: Conceptualization
Before even building your bedroom in a 3D environment, it is highly advised to conceptualize it first. Plan how large the room should be, from the floor area to the ceiling height, decide on the style you're aiming for, collect the references you need according to the style you've chosen, decide on a color palette if you're feeling extra fancy. As a final step for the conceptualization phase I like to draw a sketch of how I intend for the room to end up looking.
Deadline for Phase 1 is:
>august 11th

OP here, today's the 11th and as promised I return with me draft for my room, it's very sketchy but it won't matter much in the end once it is done.
Unfortunately there seems to be no interest at all in this thread, therefore I think I'm gonna discontinue it, the point of it is to perform a shared exercise after all so I'll just continue on my own, maybe share some updates here and there, who knows

Who lost? Biggest crybaby of /3/ and loser. You are given enough information from the scientific community that disagrees with your opinion. All this time you spent was wasting on us by complaining or insulting, not once did you try to create something in Blender. I don’t think you even care about Blender after that one political statement that makes you sound stupid. We don’t care about your nazi opinions either.

That one, there's a ring of joints all the children of that join in the middle. The donut mesh is bound to those joints. The rod is a rigidbody with collision. The joints all have an elastic constant that keeps them in their spot very strongly. High dampening, and some constraints on rotation so it didn't twist up. As the rod pushes in it pushes the joints out.

Do death animations. Like gunshot insta kills where the character drops to the ground with the point of impact drives the force. These are the single best crashcourse in body mechanics, weight, and posing. Do hundreds of these, from as many points of impact as you can think of, and you will become god tier. Works in any software.

I figured out how to do a toon shader in UE but I'm having issues in Blender
The way it works in UE is that faces under a specific "light" value have their texture replaced with a "shadow" texture I made.. It gives me a lot more control over the model colors.
I haven't figured out how to setup the shader nodes in Blender to do that, if anyone has any examples I'd appreciate it
>>
>>1019818
Okay so I used
PBDF > Shader to RGB > Seperate RGB > Red to > Math (Greater than x) > (factor of) Mix Color (2 textures) > EmissionBSDF > MatOutput

produced a decent 2-tone color but needed a lot of Subdivision to get it smooth. idk if this is the best setup. My first attempt was using ColorRamp node but it didn't work very well
Now I need to figure out a nice setup to add a terminator line and I'm golden

I just had a terrific idea for a geo node modifier, but then I remembered that multires doesn't support color attributes
