I wanted to make dumb merch for my dumb game to see if I could. Turns out I can, and the next time they’ll be better. I think they turned out great!
Is blender not a Computer-Aided Deaign program? You used a computer program to aid in designing an asset, no?
I know some would argue that only parametric modeling programs ‘count’, but that’s fucking dumb- by that logic, AutoCAD* and other early 2D CAD programs get excluded too. We wouldn’t need to append the ‘parametric’ qualifier to the acronym if it were an inherent part of the definition.
* yes, I’m aware they’ve added a parametric tool suite to AutoCAD. That doesn’t make it a parametric CAD program

@SunlessGameStudios nice, I keep trying to move to Blender, but I cannot get past the complicated UI. I still use Tinkercad because I know how to get what I want... but I really should learn blender..

Just don’t give up, find something that pulls you in and let it. I learned on CAD software first, and applied that knowledge to an existing model. Your imagination is more powerful than motivation, so let it guide you instead. That’s how I got there.
