What is this?
This is a tutorial series covering my process of using The Sims 4 and Blender to create rendered stills/animations.
Who is this for?
Anyone, Simmers and Blender enthusiasts alike. This is especially useful if you don't want to model your own characters, sets, and other assets.
Why use The Sims 4?
Using The Sims to create renders in Blender has massive potential. The Sims (from 2-4) has a huge collection of free/low-cost 3D models that are pretty high quality. The Sims themselves are also easy to manipulate and won't slow Blender to a crawl when animating.
What topics will be covered + what's included?
This will include tutorial videos showing the in-depth process of me creating renders.
