Blender 4.2 introduces Thin Film Iridescence for materials such as soap bubbles, oil, and pearls, without the need of custom shaders.

These images were rendered in Blender 4.2 Beta using values from https://physicallybased.info/

Thin film on metals isn’t yet supported but it's coming, according to info in this thread: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/118477

One of the mathematical images @noneuclideandreamer has posted this month reminded me of "Infinity Mirror Rooms" from Yayoi Kusama.

I hadn't worked with Blender for the last few years. Now I have invested a day to unearth my former skills.

Browsing through the new Extensions section (previously called "Add-ons") in the Blender 4.3 Alpha build preferences, I stumbled upon an extension that should be able to import native 3ds Max files. It even supports V-Ray and Corona materials. I haven't tested it yet, but I hope it works!

Browsing through the new Extensions section (previously called "Add-ons") in the Blender 4.3 Alpha preferences, I stumbled upon an extension offering lots of useful, ready-to-use Geometry Node functions, including instanced radial arrays, grid arrays and spherical arrays…

If you dislike Blender's cumbersome new Add Modifier menu with tedious submenus in Blender 4.x, I can recommend the Old Modifier Menu add-on.

There's a free version, but version 2 costs less than $1, and the add-on is very customizable via Blender's preferences. I love it.

in 2021 the CPAC stage resembled an Odal Rune - often associated with Nazis. At that time this seemed outlandish and insane. With the benefit of hindsight, of course it was. In this video the stage is reproduced virtually and cheerfully dismantled by an orange cube wearing headphones. So - Nazis are still fucking canceled, forever. The end. Made in Blender #b3d

If you want to render photorealistic images, the Cycles render engine is your friend. But what exactly are all these settings? Which render device and denoising algorithm should you use?
