Or lack thereof!

So jumped into Blender with the classic doughnut tutorial. Would say I spent a good 10 hours following a step by step guide and paying close attention but ultimately got stuck on the last steps and could not get the project complete!
Was a little annoying but these things happen. There is no way I could find where I messed up unless I went back through the whole thing and tried from scratch which I felt I have to do as I got to about the 5 hour mark and started forgetting the basics I had learned at the start.

This was my sad looking end result.

As you can see the sprinkles did no get coloured, textured or added variation coz I sucked with the nodes system.

Perhaps if there was more interest in 3D art I would get right back on this and make sure I fixed it in a 2nd attempt, but this whole ordeal has left me a bit deflated even if I have a new appreciation for those that can use 3d software.

Instead I will be looking into the 2D animation tool it has to see how that works instead (Hopefully its a bit more user friendly then that OpenToonz I tried before).

In better news, I have made some descent progress with the final 2 gift art pics so expect to see those very soon, and here is a sneak peak of the next big exclusive!

Perhaps I will try my paw at 3d modelling again in the future but for now I have 2D art that requires my full attention once again.
