@theluthier   Thank you!

I just noticed that one of my favourite tutorial makers has posted a video on setting up effective rim light. He also shows how to use the “Track To” constraint, which has helped me a lot when positioning lights in my latest project. In case anyone is interested, here is the video.

@yukinoh1989 Huh.  Well maybe you should uninstall and reinstall 2.7.  If that doesn’t work, then I have no more options for you to try.

@silentheart00 somehow it does work with 2.8 so guess I’ll stick with that. I posted the results 

[silentheart00]

@yukinoh1989 That’s good to hear, but it’d be good to get the stable version of Blender (2.7) working, too.  But hey, you found a workaround so far, and sometimes that’s what you need to do until you solve the problem.

@shiennar I like tutor4u!  The very first things I did in Blender were his videos, because they were so easy to follow along with while I was still learning the interface, and he does a good job of making tutorials accessible, but still having a pretty thorough scope of what Blender can do.  I always enjoy recognizing his stuff in gallery posts here.

@shiennar Thanks for sharing, Kate! Cool idea to use the track to constraint 👍

Some inspiration for this week, a car with blender 2.8 and eevee

I think it looks pretty nice 😊 

[yukino hatake]

@smurfmier1985 damn it sure does that one car too with the blue neon lights 😀 gonna be fun.
for today i gonna call it a day i think . at least for working in overal . just gonna cook and clean and watch blender class.

i do wonder if we also gonna intent to use the pumpkin for the contest for our class last week is it allowed to also ask questions about that in here ? or not ? and can we post those updates also in the class tread with quesitons or is it better to keep that in the pumpkin topic ? exept the final render then of course .

[yukino hatake]

question does a texture map always have to be grey and black image or if you take a collored picture does that work too ?

[smurfmier1985]

@theluthier Question: in week 3 I want to kill two birds with one stone (or however that expression goes in English), I want to shade/light/composit the pumpkin character I’m working on for the Epic Pumpkin Contest. 

Is that okay? Since you’re one of the judges I can imagine it might not be allowed..

You can always just give me my grade and not comment on my pumpkin, only comment on the light match, I don’t mind 😉 Knowing the awesome community here I will get plenty of useful feedback 😎

I’ll be doing it in eevee by the way, just for kicks 😬
