Are you new to CG Cookie? Say hi to your new Blender tribe! 🍪

[Marc Albrecht]

Moin, fellow coffee fan here (BZ10, Niche Zero) … father, part-time musher (woof!), musician, etc. etc.

this is most likely my last attempt at understanding Blender (I am perfectly fine with Houdini, thank you) – hoping that the revamped UX is catering more for old sacks like myself. 

Aside from really wanting to get into Blender at last, I am also looking for a respectful, human community (the lack of which is driving me out of Houdini), as I am alone-on-my-own more than enough when I write (3d-/2d-) software …

Looking forward to giving this one here a try as well as … well, Blender.

Hi, Everybody!

I am a graphic/web designer, but few years ago I took a course in animation in both traditional and 3D animation.

A friend of mine told me about CG Cookie and I must say I am impressed with I have seen so far.

Sincerely,

Marcos Oliveira

Look forward to seeing some of your work in the gallery.

Happy Blending!

Hello guys,

I’ve just started wanting to learn blender. My reasoning is just because I want to create sci-fi scenes and environments and pictures. So its all just for personal reasons for me. I started with the famous donut tutorial but figured i needed more indepth lessons and the ability to get feedback so here I am. This all coincides with my work giving us a 2 week holiday, so for the next 2 weeks im going to try and immerse myself in to the courses and really learn and build up my fundamentals

@jjans0717 Welcome to the Cookie, and those are good reasons to get started with Blender. If you haven’t already, this is a good place to start – https://cgcookie.com/flow/your-first-week-with-blender-and-cg-cookie 

Keep at it, and looking forward to what you’ll be able to create by the end of the two weeks! Happy Blending!

Hello, Mike here. I have dabbled with blender through the years and always get reinvigorated when I see a new version come out. Not a lot to say but I do love the community around blender!.

[Adrian Bellworthy]

Hello Mike!

‘Dabbling with Blender through the years’ is quite a common phrase.

However, since about 2.79, it has become less common.

And now with 3.0 and on, its a great time dabble no more.

Welcome to the Blender community here at CG Cookie.

There is no end of help and advice in the community,

Just ask the question, and sure enough, someone in the community will have the answer.

Happy Blending!

Hello! I’m Kyle, and I’ve just recently made the decision to start using Blender seriously.

I now live in Bali, Indonesia.
Grew up just outside London, England.
Went to college in Minnesota, USA.
I spent the last 6 years working in operations for multiple small businesses but decided it’s time to pursue something I genuinely enjoy.

 So here I am!
Looking forward to potentially connecting with you all!

Happy New Year,

Kyle

Hey @kylelouisfarrar and welcome to the CG Cookie community! I’m sure you’re not missing Minnesota’s winter weather!

Excited to see what you create in Blender, and please ask questions here on the forum or in our Discord channel if you get stuck. Happy Blending!

Hi guys,

I’m quite new to Blender and I think CG Cookie is the best place to land in order to understand the basics and grow up. I’d like to be a blender artist, just for fun, as my job is far away from this kind of stuff (I work for a medical device company). 

I’m 36 y.o., married, have a beautiful dog. I like photography, basketball, Spider-man, comics in general.

I’m really glad to be here and I want to say hi to all of you 🙂

[Wes Burke]

Hi all :3

My name is Kirill, I’m half latvian, half russian, main direction is marketing, yet wanted to diverse it and learn new stuff and basically change profession, as they say – it’s always good to change every 8 years or so.  Started with digital illustrations a few months ago, learning fundamentals, bought some stuff for digital drawing, basic iPad alongside with pencil,  after a while had a look at 3d and it kinda inspired me to go further and see how far can I go with 3d modeling, and here I am, as a green bean ^^  looking forward to this journey

Where are cookies again? ^^
