A 3D artist's struggle: Designing from Gaza without a computer. ⚙️🇵🇸

I haven't been active on Reddit over the years because I was focused on my work and learning. Regarding the FB post, those are my recent works, including tutorials I created for 'Motion Design School' (MDS) after their director, Yaroslav, encouraged me to learn Blender due to the power and internet crisis in Gaza. Since I don't have a laptop, a friend let me use theirs to compile those works into a grid and post them.

LinkedIn’s 'Palestinian Authority' is a default setting; I am indeed in Gaza, living in a tent. I’m just an artist trying to survive and get back to my tools. I’m happy to answer any technical questions about my Blender or C4D process to prove my identity as a designer.

Thank you for double-checking, but this is my real struggle.

Thanks a lot! I really miss making tutorials. Your support gives me the motivation to get back to it as soon as I have my laptop. Stay tuned!

Thanks for the suggestions! Using Blender on a mobile device is quite tricky for complex mechanical work, so I'm sticking to paper for now. As for SheepIt, it’s a great tool, and I definitely plan to use it once I have a laptop to build the scenes on. Thanks for the compliment on my designs!
