Mouse's stuff

[Falconius]

I have to admit... I'm terrified of Blender. I mean, jeez, I don't even know where to start.

Start with one of the basic courses by Blender Guru on Youtube. When I did it years ago I used his donut one from back then, I imagine his new donut playlist is just as good. But he's gt a few beginner series if you look on his channel. What I did was just sat down and went through step by step as he did, pausing the video for each step. It requires a lot of time, I'd budget about two or three times the length of the video for each video.

I really must put myself through the blender once again now with its V2.8 UI. The old one was hopeless but I am assured that the new one is much better and much more consistent. I know its a great app. The only thing that was letting it down was its UI and if that has been fixed it should be on my list of apps I use.

It's better in very many ways (and of course with some new annoyances all it's own, especially for people used to the old), but it is still just as extremely complicated. I think the only way to get through it is baby steps, but just head down one foot in front of the other. The program is so ridiculously useful though that it really is worthwhile to learn.
