Failing at Blender

[Anonymous No.986401]

Can someone review my issues with Blender and present a diagnosis? I'll be actively comparing myself to someone else that started at the same time. Both have no previous practical experience (Mine was like 2 parts of the Blender donut years ago)

Please help me decide what to do

[Anonymous No.986402]

nigga how can u fail at blender? whats ur goal

[Anonymous No.986404]

This involves making lewd/mild NSFW for a /vg/ general.

These following three are mine, remember the first one, it's the latest one.

u have no sense of composition or lighting. actually look at ur refs and see what sets them apart, or look at any tutorial on these topics

[Anonymous No.986408]

>>986404
all of these are bad but your newest one would be better than all the others if you turned up / added a fill light + pushed overall exposure a little more in camera or in post.

[Anonymous No.986409]

He can and has made lots of others renders. He can make more than me, he's better than me.


I take too long doing things and I don't know why. I tinker and tinker and it doesn't even come out right. I struggle with posing, I don't understand poses at all.

Remember this
https://files.catbox.moe/ mvy20q.png (just join it, nsfw)

It took me 6 hours, I watched tutorial vids in the meantime but 6 hours and I failed. This is the 3rd render I make in total.

I didn't even add cum or sweat, I wasted time.

>>986407
>>986408
I don't know what you guys are talking about. Plus I couldnt get the tongue to make contact or spit effects, her expression and background clutter. I'm tearing up at my failure

This one took me 5 hours I think
Why do I take so long to deliver nothing but shit?

>>986408
>>986407
Composition? I use references but I don't understand composition. Should I just copy the references for now as I see them?

You guys have no idea how much I struggle with poses. I don't understand it and can't pose for shit.

[Anonymous No.986413]

I clumsily try to set a camera one I realize the pose cant work. I tinker and waste time with poses and nothing works
I am frankly discouraged to try again after failing. Cant even get body fluids, cant get anything. I can't do poses or expression, he is better. Why?

So what's my problem?

needs more lighting. You have to light it like it's a movie set. Not with logical light like the ones you have models for in the scene.

[Anonymous No.986626]

>>986625
and on this note I saw this one lewd 3d animation recently that had "bad lighting" like if it were a real film he would have failed to light the scene well. specifically the light appeared to be mounted on the camera, like an old camcorder or a news camera. Well to my eyes anyways the "bad lighting" made the scene look more real.

I've practicing lights and yes, there is an improvement in every scene. Now I see my mistakes clearly
>>986709
So I have no talent? Why?

[Anonymous No.986718]

>>986446
watch older pixar and you'll see how shitty a lot of the rendering actually is, what carries those movies is their fundamental understanding of composition/camerawork, color, form, sound, movement... It goes way deeper than a "4 light setup". Natural 'talent' is just being able to pick up on these things on an intuitive level, we all know an amazing artist who cant really articulate what theyre doing to make their work "good". Not having this doesn't mean you can't hone it in a much more deliberate way, but if you plan on making a career out of it you'll be competing with 'natural talent' the whole way

[Anonymous No.986719]

I think I am unadventurous and that's why I fail. I don't dare to just try and improve.
>>986718
I see.
I know what you'rr talking about. I am into paintings too. But do you agree with me not having talent? Why?
Been watching vids about composition

[Anonymous No.986722]

>>986719
you're just now taking interest in this, while the people youre comparing yourself to have been interested in it since they were little probably. People who take this sort of thing seriously dont just think about it while theyre working or when they look at paintings, it literally becomes the lens they see the whole world through on some level. Look for beauty in everything you see and it will manifest in your work

They probably had either more experience with making art in general, or possibly a better innate sense for composition and render concepts.

>>986775
My problem is I am ashamed of myself. Even when I draw, anything creative.
I made a scene with enough tinkering that can already look like their stuff, bothered to add fluids, play with rough and such, picked an easy pose. Lights, best ive done so far.

But I am ashamed of myself, of doing anything creative. So I dont practice enough, ive done 5 renders in total. I am shit due to not being brave enough to do more. Instead I whined and complained and got depressed. I am somehow embarrassed of this

[Anonymous No.986927]

>>986404
>jealous of someone who is barely better than you
kinda weird

1. your lighting is bad. it's worse than if you just used one of the hdris which come with blender, let alone downloaded a more interesting one off a hdri site. look at people who are actually good (not your competing anon) and try to recreate/reverse engineer their lighting. turn off all your lights and go through them one at a time to see if it's doing what you want it to do. adjust them until they are doing what you want, namely highlighting areas in the image, making things contrast against the background, creating interesting shadows, lighting things so you can see the details, etc. in your latest pic you have a few lights off to the side but the face is dark and you can barely see anything on the dick. also try to make the lights exist in the world of the image rather than just inexplicably existing
do this and other tutorials where you download the project files and try to apply the lessons yourself don't just blindly copy what they're doing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bum0F00TaKU

my biggest lighting tip is that eye highlights (which you don't have) are extremely important as they instantly give life to the character. make sure they're small (light with small radius) otherwise they look weird/bad

[Anonymous No.986928]

>>986927
2. your composition is also bad. your latest picture has terrible framing with a huge pointless area on the left and the focal length makes it even worse. there is contrast between the bg and foreground which is good but why even use a background if you're just going to leave it completely unlit and have the character on an un-textured cube(???)
tighten up your camera on the areas which matter and if you need to make it a vertical image then do it

see attached picture for the difference an fov adjustment can make (ignore bad deformations) and i'm not saying you should be using one or the other but try to think about it and see which works best for your picture. your latest pic's low fov is making the face/dick/hand way larger compared to the rest of the scene. if that's the look you want then fine but try to think about what you can do with the camera to change how your picture looks

3. your posing. you have fallen for the classic newbie trap of "what do i do with this hand oh god i know i'll make her grab her boob". try to be a little more dynamic and think about the position your characters are in. is it a comfortable pose? is it even realistic position for a human to be in? where is the character distributing their bodyweight? are the shoulders in the correct position relative to the body and arms? if you need to just get in the position yourself

your second picture (black void one) has the best posing. it has the best lighting too since you've actually made an effort to rim light her but it is overall quite bland
also stop being neurotic and shaming yourself for not being good, nobody starts out good. no one is naturally good at things. you need to learn over time

[Anonymous No.986929]

>>986928
>>986927
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, now I've seen vids of lighting and such I realize how bad my stuff is, same with my framing.
I did go back into changing the light for that and there's a bit of a difference but beyond a three point set up, I'm too new.
Your Jinx example is good, I just saw to stick on 50 to 30 mm range and as a newbie I got scared.
I have no idea what I am doing beyond trying to copy r34 pics or magazine pics (black void)

>>986929
yeah that lighting looks better from the thumbnail. there's also the extra step of taking your render and using post effects on it to make it even better but probably just stick to the basics for now
>I neer to think more, been on panic auto pilot and reacting to my own pics.
maybe stop panicking for no reason, you aren't under time pressure unless you have a terminal illness or something. this is meant to be fun. i have a huge reference folder i refer to so it's not "bad" to try and copy existing stuff, don't feel guilty or whatever about it

I couldnt understand how to position them to get the same desired angle as the pic, it was a double bj so 3 model

Im anxious and depressed, dodnyou read how long it took me to get those pics, 6 hours for two explicit ones

just relax you don't need to do everything perfectly the first time you try it. you also don't need to do things in a specific time frame. i've worked on some pictures for multiple days and some for just a few hours, if it takes time to get it how you want it then that's just how it is
it sounds like you have very bad anxiety problems which should be a higher priority to fix than improving your 3d porn abilities

[Anonymous No.986936]

>>986934
I am anxious yes.
Its just worries me that I was unable to understand and replicate the pose, do I bend the back? The neck? I couldnt get the angle so I panicked

You trying to do the frontal flash thing kinda look? Use a ring mesh light and parent it to the camera if you want to be fancy. Make sure the specular roughness on your characters eyes are low.

your upper body is in an awkward position which is why you can't get the neck right. you have correctly identified this here >>986942 where you've pointed out the angle of the neck is wrong relative to the upper body. all you need to do is angle the upper body more instead of having it be parallel with the ground. the spine (as a whole) should always be a nice S curve so if you deviate from that it's going to look unnatural
also your hands are too far forward to comfortably support the weight of the upper body

[Anonymous No.987316]

>>987315
also if you're insecure about my literally 3 minute jinx picture to show you fov differences you're gonna hate this 30 minute picture in which i make the picture you wanted to make
the point of the lighting in nyl's pictures/animations you're trying to copy is that it's an "amateur" feeling lighting used mostly in porn where there's a ring light attached to the top of the camera like this guy said >>987182
usually there's a lot of grain or other visual imperfections which is the secret sauce to making something look photorealistic.
>>987277 this is ok but i think your light is probably too close to the model instead of being where the camera lens is. also those fortnite models have pretty poor detail (like the game), and iirc the rig is janky and hard to use. try a rigid3d model instead

and allow me to let you in on another shocking revelation: if it looks good from the camera perspective it doesn't matter at all if it looks like a fucking mess in the viewport

[Anonymous No.987319]

>>987317
and finally this is what you messed up with the neck. the spine is doing the majority of the bending and the neck is pretty much neutral
it's an exaggerated pose (the ass is way too high) but it looks good in the camera and we're making porn so you're allowed to exaggerate things
instead of spending all your time doom posting about tfw no talent just try to activate your brain and realize you can't just copy a step by step procedure to make art you have to actually look at it and think about the components, what you're trying to achieve, what works and what doesn't

The hard pose came from the same model, I thought she was cute and this Tracer model has detailed feet so I got it from her wikifeet page
I wont post the original to avoid that anon mogging me again

But her spine was bent all the way and one side was smashed in while the other one relaxed and curving outwards, I didnt really get it at all

I got her center of gravity wrong from the inverted view

this is a terrible mindset and even shittier when this thread is full of talented 3d people giving you advice and feedback.
if i had to guess i'd say you only got into 3d thinking you could make easy money, which is why your earlier pics are all bbc porn. your reaction in this thread is typical of the kind of person who thinks "wow 3d is so easy, literally free money!" then comes to the realization you actually have to put effort in and practice to be good

on today's meltdown we discuss the sculpting tools in blender and how you should never feel like you're being bullied by the vertices as you are in fact their god
weird deformations? lumps from bad weighting? joints twisted unpleasantly? not enough squish for your boner? sculpting is the answer

[Anonymous No.987577]

>>987576
you can either make a shapekey (in the data section of the properties outliner) and sculpt using the mesh as is or __if you are finished posing__ you can add a multires modifier and sculpt using a subdivided mesh which lets you put in way more detail and lets you more easily fix bad looking parts of the mesh
you have to be finished posing when using it however as it will make your mesh explode if you adjust the bones afterwards
the basic sculpting brushes to use are the drag, grab and smooth brushes. with these you can fix most things. for finer detail you should use the draw sharp or crease brushes. to make things nice and squishy looking you can use inflate then smooth it. you are the boss of the vertices!

So I had no idea what to do, I added a camera positioned it in front of her but the mm and angle looks lame

you are right, the circle primitive is just a ring of vertexes. select the circle, enter edit mode (tab), enter vertex selection mode if you're not already in it, select all vertices (a), fill the vertices (f)

>Should I pose ehat the camera wont even get to see?
you should still pose in the generally correct position but you don't need to bother making the feet look good or anything if they're out of the frame

>>987694
this is looking fine just keep working on it. avoid symmetry and make things not perfectly straight to improve realism.
i.e. >SUBTLY< tilt one of the shoulders (the right one cuz her hand is above shoulder level), tilt the head to the left or right a little bit, same with the spine but again don't make it crazy or it'll look weird

Judging by the catbox links from early in the thread I already am and better than the dude you're so jealous of. So what? Why worry about it? I used to suck but now people praise my work. I doubt we'd be in direct "competition" anyway because I focus on furries.

Here's my advice: work on your mental health and self esteem, learn basic visual composition (e.g. the rule of thirds), and learn three point lighting (key, fill, rim). It's good you wanna git gud at something but fretting about it hamstrings your ability to git gud.

The problem is that you are thinking that you are doing a lot, but you are posting so fucking much that is hard to believe that.

From all of the comments you've been posting, for years perhaps, you are looking for a answer to justify your failures and at the same time you are ready to deny any help and keep whining. >>987693

Dont start the pose if you dont know the angle, you are getting a lot of just useless data in your head without a goal. You are making everything impossible for yourself.>>987755
stop complaining dude, it doesnt help. It has never helped.

You are the problem and not in a way you are aware of it. You enslaved yourself to a dumb mindset that gives you some explanation for shit, you need to break the comfort you have in your self deprecation. This is all false, not that you are ill or anything, you likely are, but thinking about this in these terms is just making you dumber.

you need a clear goal. What is this image that you are making supposed to make the audience feel? It is confusing. It feels like she is threatened, her face and general posture suggests that, but she at the same time is posing 'confortably' like that.

Think out loud. "What am I doing?" "How do I get where I want to be?"

It is easier for you to start over with something less 'anatomy demanding'. Try some normal scene.

Try this:
Pose a character sat in some sofa, looking outside and holding a mug.
The picture is bright, light coming from the window, the character is comfortable and relaxed. Think of cozy, comfort. And dont fucking get back to posting or reading any board until you have an image that reads this.

If you can't nail something as simple as this, you wont be able to do some studio lightning with anatomy deformation and contact with other bodies.

All of these suggest different things, when you think of an image that is better or worse, you gotta think what for they are worse.

A good cup cant have holes, but a good strainer needs to.

You can control the sun angle to hit the character inside, you can try that with the nikita sky thing in the 'world' section, or perhaps use some hdri for it.

[Anonymous No.987888]

>>987883
this is good and a vast improvement over your other stuff. center of weight looks fairly correct and you've obviously recreated the pose from your reference nicely. obviously you'd want to sculpt the knees but that's not your fault, it's a common problem with 3d model knees
as the other anon said if you need sunlight you're better off using an outdoor hdri because recreating all the bounce and diffuse light that the outdoors has is quite hard

the back disappearing is probably just a mask modifier with the edit mode option enabled. if it's actually breaking when you sculpt it probably has a smooth corrective modifier which definitely needs to be off for sculpting or it'll fight against you and explode the mesh in the process
also to sculpt the legs i would probably go into edit mode of the body, select the lower legs and maybe a bit of the knee then in sculpt mode at the menu at the top do Face Sets -> Face set from edit mode selection
then you can click the automasking thing at the top (see bottom of pic) and set to face set mode to make it easier to affect only one part of the legs at a time
