I’ve been leaning blender casually for the last 3 years and it’s definitely gotten to that point. Maybe it’s the inherent feeling of making something in 3d but it feels a lot like mastering video game controls.
I should finally get into that. I keep putting it off for silly reasons that will never be addressed by putting it off. Can't get better at making models if I never make any, much less texturing a model if I never texture anything.
Also one of my favorite finds in a related area were voxel editors. Highly encourage anyone into voxel art from games like VoxeLibre or Minecraft to look into them. All the fun of building with blocks with a lot more flexibility.
Got for it! It looks a bit overwhelming at first with all the different things you have to learn but once you get through the basics it starts to get really fun.
Been wanting to look at some voxel editors. Any you can recommend?
