Want realistic falling objects and collisions in Blender? In this Blender Bites tutorial, you’ll learn how Rigid Body physics works and how to quickly create dynamic simulations.
Rigid Body physics simulates solid objects affected by gravity and collisions. In this video, you’ll learn:
• How to enable Rigid Body physics
• The difference between Active and Passive objects
• How collision shapes affect accuracy
• Why scale matters for stable simulations
• How to bake your simulation
Rigid Body physics is essential for destruction effects, falling objects, stacked props, and dynamic motion.

Jump into a full Blender livestream where I take real-time viewer requests and build whatever comes up, no prep, no script. From stylized fire shaders in Eevee to modeling needle nose pliers and experimenting with geometry nodes for effects like rain droplets, this session covers a wide range of practical workflows.
If youre learning Blender, this is a raw look at how to think through problems, not just follow steps. Start learning Blender with CG Cookie, join the site here[$]: https://b3d.cgcookie.com/b3d-yt
What you’ll learn:
How to create a stylized fire shader (Eevee + Cycles approaches)
Real-time product modeling workflow (pliers example)
Geometry nodes basics (point distribution, proximity effects)
Fake metaballs and smooth merging tricks
Material tips: bump vs normal maps, procedural textures
Practical problem-solving mindset inside Blender
This is less about perfection and more about how to approach unknown problems in Blender.
⏱️ Chapters
00:00 Livestream kickoff + intro
02:10 Stylized fire shader in Eevee
12:45 Volume-based fire (Cycles approach)
20:30 Product visualization discussion
28:10 Modeling needle nose pliers (start)
52:40 Boolean + shaping techniques
1:10:25 Geometry nodes: rain droplets concept
1:25:00 Proximity effects + animation ideas
1:40:15 Fake metaballs in geometry nodes
1:52:30 Bump maps vs normal maps
2:05:00 Procedural materials (rock, plaster, styrofoam)
2:20:10 Modeling shovel grooves (topology approach)
2:35:00 Final Q&A + career advice
Blender is at its best when you stop waiting for the perfect setup and start testing ideas. This stream is exactly that: practical problem-solving, iteration, and a lot of useful side paths along the way.
