So yesterday I downloaded Blender cause my sister wanted to add some cgi effects to her stop motion movie that she's been working on. Pretty soon I was checking out the tutorials on Blender's website and made the balloon image. I thought of how I could do more and so I made it an animation. It's pretty simple but I think it turned out pretty well. Creation of the scene took me around 7 hours cause i was still a beginner and rendering to an additional 7 hours cause I was using my laptop. What do you guys think and who else uses Blender? Feel free to showcase your work here. I also highly recommend watching this video in HD

Pretty cool...
I've used blender once, and all I was able to do was move around some box. And what the box was for I have no idea :P
I should prolly pick it up sometime, it looks like it can make some pretty epic stuff :D

Dude, for a first Blender use, it is realy really great. I mean, the most of startup project on Blender contains the default grey background, whereas here, you took the time to add an environment map, a controlled reflective effect, many colors...
I'm sure you're going to do wonderful things later if you continue doing like this =)
I've used Blender during 4 years and I can remember its crappy interface under version 2.4x. The new 2.5x one is really great. I don't know (and hope !) if it helps beginners to understand the power of Blender.
Keep up the good work =)

I love the new start-up picture!:p
Blender is now a grown-up 3D modelling software. I think, this is the best modeller I saw. Easy to learn, but powerful.

I'm right now caught between 3DS Max or Blender. Blender is free and powerful, but I like the UI in 3DS Max better. :S

I find Blender hard to use at most points. :crazy: It is hard to get used to, but I guess people who are familiar with it could like it...

Blender and Flash are the two programs I really need to learn to use someday.

There is an option to get 3DS shortcuts or maya directly in blender

I use blender for creating the 3D models of my java game. Blender is hard to get used to, but once you get used to it, you can make it do almost everything.
But what you did is really great for a first time!
BTW: rendering in blender is really slow, so for just seeing if it looks good, you can use the previev renderer (shift+p) which is faster than a normal render.

No more Shift+P in Blender 2.5x =)

No more Shift+P in Blender 2.5x =)
Is it changed? I know it's shift+p in 2.49.

No no, it has gone.
Blender 2.59 came out today, the Blender 2.6x branch begins =)

I used Blender for my Direct3D project for school, and yeah it's kinda hard to get used to.
The balloons are great though :D

Necropost!
A small blender cycles animation I made to practice for something hopefully better
My first cloth animation and my first use of textured mesh in blender. It was actually a lot easier than it looks.
Yeah, so those are my only important renders, and both relate to omnimaga

I really need to learn this sometime. I haven't tried using it since 2.4 and I was too confused with that.
-
Teach me o great Rhobicuboctahedron to tame this wild beast called Blender. I really need some good tutorials :P

Minor necropost because I was spending time with my family, but yes, there are many good tutorials at the many good blender forums, and if you need to, you can just ask here and I, Levak or anyone else will answer

A good render of fluid I made (I had another one from another angle, but accidentally saved this one over it)
Also, would this (and anything else I make that I think is good enough to show you) be better posted in the General purpose art thread, since it isn’t an animation?

Nah, it's fine here. That looks quite nice btw. :)
