Modeling Hex Muscles in Blender
WHAT IS THIS?
This is a step by step modeling and rendering tutorial on how to create the Hex Cyber Muscles you see in the cover. The tutorial runs at normal speed with real-time narration of everything I'm doing, starting from a blank scene to the final product image.
DISCLAIMER: I used a paid addon for Blender called Curve Basher to generate the cables coming out of the tips but you can still follow along using this vanilla blender technique: https://youtu.be/gwHz3yR74G4
TOPICS
Blender:
- Modeling the Hexagonal pattern.
- Using deformers to re-shape the pattern.
- Better performance with Collection Instances.
- Curve Basher's "Wire Generator Tool".
- Super simple render setup (nothing fancy).
- Basic Materials (again, nothing fancy).
- Make a basic render look awesome with Filters and Adjustment Layers (Depth of Field, Sharpness, Contrast, etc...).
