🛠I learned Blender, an open-source 3D modeling software, in just 30 days.
🎮I followed a course and used retrieval practice to reinforce my learning.
🎩Blender crashed multiple times, but I persisted and overcame setbacks.
📚I experimented with different texturing techniques, including blender texture painting and Quixel Mixer.
👨💻I successfully created the base meshes and populated the game world with various assets.
How did you learn Blender in just 30 days?
—I followed a course and used retrieval practice, continuously redoing tasks to reinforce my learning.
Did you encounter any challenges during the challenge?
—Yes, Blender crashed multiple times and I forgot to save my progress. However, I didn't let setbacks discourage me and continued learning.
What texturing techniques did you use?
—I used blender texture painting to add textures directly in Blender, and I also experimented with Quixel Mixer for more advanced texturing.
Did you complete all the tasks within 30 days?
—I completed the base meshes and populated the game world, but I still have some finishing touches and the character to work on in future videos.
What were the key takeaways from this challenge?
—I learned valuable skills in Blender, persistence, and problem-solving. I also gained experience in game development and asset creation.
