Nowadays, I’m involved in some of Blender’s development processes as a commissioner for various projects.Įmbark’s embrace of Blender was in fact how I discovered this studio in the first place and a big reason why I work here today (in addition to our work with machine learning and proceduralism). Over time, I also became an active member of the Blender community. It made me fall back in love with 3D modeling again, and soon upon discovering Blender, I found myself using it for most of my tasks.

Blender has evolved tons since, but even back then I was surprised to find how capable this free software was, with its fantastic modeling toolset and non-destructive modifier system.

My own history with Blender dates back to 2015. The character here is procedurally generated from a scan data set. Hair rendered in Blender’s real-time render engine Eevee. In this post, Daniel Bystedt details why Blender is great for game development and lets you in on a specific use-case. Just now, we also renewed our gold-level sponsorship of the Blender Development Fund another year.
