How You Could Make a Sarlacc Pit Creature from Star Wars & Boba Fett -What I did... Kev Binge 2022-05-05 | When someone asks you to create a Sarlacc Pit from StarWars Boba Fett, you say YES. This was a good challenge as I'd never tried to make this even though I'd known Return of the Jedi since I was 9 years old. This is my attempt at making something remotely decent, as well as a good challenge creating cg sand. Geometry Nodes, Radial Arrays, Sculpting, Grains, Vellum, Davinci Reaolve, Fusion, and Affinity.Here's my Patreon Link if you're interested.

Blender Cloth Explained in One Very Strange Effect Kev Binge 2024-09-05 | This is a simple pure Blender effect using cloth. Quite honestly, cloth or sims in Blender aren't optimal, and Houdini handles it better, but this effect works for this. I cover pinning cloth, settings for decent deformation, shading, and rendering.The file is here: patreon.com/posts/blender-cloth-fx-111394654?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_linkKeep in mind that for legal reasons, the Mixamo character isn't in this file, but I tell you where to get it and what dance move I'd used in the description of the file if you're interested.
