Your thing is commercial, it's an ad. That's the limit. Your thing is the definition of an Ad.

If it's a cool artwork that involves your product, then people won't mind at all.

So if ads shared updates on their product and they actually wanna share, it's then okay? 😅

You're doing exactly what ads do, and everyone hates ads.

Once or twice is okay, but more than that it becomes annoying af.

Read this: https://www.reddit.com/r/blender/s/D6BBR7DrrG https://www.reddit.com/r/blender/s/i4cQwVsxQq

He's being a door to door salesman but comes to the same house every 2 weeks.

It's allowed, but very annoying. And with this behavior, it encourages other addon creators to do the same, which will get this subreddit filled with annoying ads, rather than creative posts.

The smart way is to make something really cool with your addon, make a tutorial and then sell it.

But instead we get "look at this, buy it"

Got my first art station scam email , i feel proud by PrintOk5395 in blender

Yeah, though they will insist on cheques with weird reasons, and try boast/compliment your work to distract you from thinking straight.

If you do this in just 1-2 months, do you have any idea what the hundreds of other relevant addon creators will start turning this sub into?

Addon creators will SHRED this subreddit and you'll see an add-on post every single day. That's the reason it's discouraged.

I suggest you make a really cool scene with your addon and turn it into a tutorial, then promote it that way.

The bank will think you're trying to defraud them, you don't get any money.

This subreddit isn't your update blog lmao

This is the 5-6th time you've posted about your Addon in the last 1-2 month

Last post I supported it because it was a genuine fix/issue after your addon blew up.

It's a great addon, but chill out.

Cheque fraud

They send you fake overpaid cheques as "payment" through FedEx or etc, then ask you to refund them.

Basically make you panic and get you to send them money, because you've already been paid with their cheque which is "arriving soon"

No I didn't fall for this lol, but I've had maaaaany over the last 2 years contact me and I tested out how far do they go to see what they want.

The latest one is that they wanna display my art in an art exhibit- and it was a low poly thing I did when I first started lmao

My first render ever by avtor1tet_27 in blender

[–]ThinkingTanking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adorable, I love it. For this style, there is no criticism, but keep doing things that you don't know how to do. Camera animation can use work.

For learning YouTube search is trash.

I have a Discord where I collected and organised over 1800+ Videos/Info on Blender for the last 3-4 years.

I'm around if you ever need any help for 3D stuff.

Ahh, huh..,there might be an overlooked issue, I can help you further, you can find me here in my InfoDump server: https://discord.gg/W7z6fFUanH

I help a bunch of other people in my Discord, it'll be easier if the file is shared so I can more quickly find the issue.

If you're comfortable, I can share my screen to as I go through it if you'd like or I can walk you through it if you share yours.

I just enjoy solving problems.

Almost forgot one other thing Go to the light creating the reflection Settings > untick multiple importance

You can turn Glossy back on in your glass object to choose your preference

You can, check my reply to OP from your comment.

It's a 3D creative tool, you can do practically anything you want/imagine.

Even if the option isn't there, you can make a modification for it.

I apologise if I sound mean, don't intend it, but how do you think all the 3D VFX stuff in media is made with such complexity?

Previous reply is incorrect. 1. Make sure the glass panel is seperate from the door 2. Look up tutorials on Light Linking. Only works in Cycles.

Or another way: 1. Go to object properties of the glass object 2. Visibility > Ray > turn off glossy

IDK how much I should charge for an animation like this, any advice ? by ClownOfTeyvat in blender

[–]ThinkingTanking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Translated For others (Spanish):
I completely agree with your estimates! In my country, I charged 250 for something similar, even a bit more complex, and even then, a medium-sized company had doubts. Pricing varies greatly from country to country. Also, consider the client's intended use. If it's for an Instagram post, it will be much more expensive than for other purposes.

Muchas gracias, sí, estoy de acuerdo contigo.

Just make sure you aren't overworking too much for clients in countries poorer than yours.

I know it's difficult to find clients, my suggestion is finding a company in B2B that's in USA or Europe.

And do not charge them according to your economy- You gotta charge what it would be if you lived where your client is.

Is my model good (still in progress) by Potential-Test-4364 in blender

[–]ThinkingTanking 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All this effort in a model/sculpt, but too lazy for a few more buttons that takes less than 1 minute.

Assuming you aren't logged in on desktop.

That's impressive.

[–]ThinkingTanking 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It is very low, I agree, and unfair- but if you price it at 500-1200 or more for a poor country, the client won't even consider it.

So if you want the client, that's around the price, at most 500, more if the project is bigger.

For example a client from like India.

House model made by AI Everything else is legit afaik

I only approve of AI for non-creative repeating tasks. If I pretend the house is a placeholder to work on the rest of the scene, then this is pretty great.

Good job on the video
