Thank you so much for this. I took (and failed. go me) a 3D animation class last semester in Maya and I hated how technical everything had to be. "Don't extend twice" "Never have non-agons" "Always start with basic shapes" "Only have 8 edges for circles" "Never have triangles" so this has really helped fuel me into a new found perspective to try 3D modeling again. Nothing has to be this technical if you're just having fun.

Elliot! If you ever want to get glass working in Eevee, you go to the main properties panel on the right-hand side and click on the tab with the little camera icon, tick the box for "Screen Space Reflections" and then "Refraction" in its little dropdown menu, and then go to your glass material and tick the "Screen Space Refraction" checkbox under the "Settings" dropdown, along with setting the "Blend Mode" dropdown menu to "Alpha Blend." I hope that helps if you ever feel like you have a glass Cycles scene that's too much for your computer!

Once again, the editing and the color correction is gorgeous-I am once again in love with how warm and lively the hues feel? Also, the most I ever did on Blender was a set of two glass spheres (!?) but your video is really making me wanna go back and try it again!

I do 3D art for a living (not in blender unfortunately!) and even to me it's so inspiring to possibly get out of my comfort zone and explore some areas of 3D that I've never tried before?? Actually, I've recently sculpted some wonky shapes in Medium (VR sculpting software), shaded in blender and printed on some fabric 👁👄👁 the possibilities are endless! good luck!

nice topology is the key to good movement when you animate! Cozyblanket also really good for retopology and UV mapping. When making a VTubuer, you'll probably be using a unity / obs plugin, so pick your Vtuber software before you rig, saves a lot of headache
