Marius Oberholster Hey! I'm having an incredible learning experience, not only learning how Blender works (yes, still learning), but also about Open-Source and the incredible software available. Stick around!

NPR Shaders

April 15, 2019
Hey all!

As you all know, Wasili and I started a thing in the Blender community at the end of 2017. He and I had spent a few months leading up to that December, building NPR shaders for Eevee - which was really rough in it's phases back then, hehe.

Anyway, since then, I've been working really hard off and on on these and since last month, we've had shaders that don't need to know it's light source, thanx to the incredible work put into the Shader to RGB node.

Today, I am super jazzed to announce the release of another new shader set. Still the same as the last release, but now supporting a very desired feature - sharpness control! Oh yeah! Was not easy! The LORD led me to go with a brightness and contrast node. I wasn't even sure if it was available to materials, hehehe.


GOD is super cool!!

So, to find out more and to dig in, check out the Toon Shaders page! As usual, you use these at your own risk.

Have a super day!
GOD bless you!!

Do you know JESUS?

For some reason, compositing and the processes involved with it, kept coming up and ...

Hey all!

Yay, third video of 2019!! GOD is so good!

Here it is:
GOD is so good!!!

The aim of this video is really to get you into the frame of mind to learn what it takes to take any tutorial that might prove useful to you and use it in any engine in Blender (to some extent obviously). Since all engines are not the same, results will vary between engines, but you can still get a lot of value out of old tutorials while you switch to 2.8! It'll get you over that educational learning curve and not o...

Blender 2.8 - Eevee - Action Backgrounds

December 18, 2018
Hey all!

Tutorial time again and here it is:

GOD is so great!

Why a redo? Well, with the addition of Eevee and the major differences with how Blender Render functions and Eevee does, there are some people that struggle to adapt the same techniques into different render engines.

I remember how frustrated I was when LuxRender wouldn't do toon shading, only to find out it can't, hahaha! Thankfully, this is not a situation like that! There is a lot that can be done and through this tutorial, I really...
