When I started learning 3D, I was using a very complex and rigid software. With Blender, everything became easier and more practical. I can create various objects and scenes without spending too much time on unnecessary tasks.
Blender is special. It can sometimes be extremely frustrating, and the UI and usability have lots of potential for improvement. However, it grows on you and has become one of my favorite software regardless of genre. It has a truly amazing community which is helpful and very talented. I can't understand how software can be completely free—recommended for anyone who likes to create stuff.
Blender is powerful, especially considering that its model is free to download (open source licensed).
I develop plugins for Blender, this is where it sometimes can frustrate. The API has a few gotchas that really catch out new comers and sometimes things are not immediately obvious from documentation.
All in all though, the tool is powerful, stable and has a large team of full time dedicated developers that are making constant improvements
Brilliant tool that will inevitably become a studio mainstay. The Blender HQ and community will continue to evolve this tool to become an "industry standard" and propel open-source tech into the mainstream rather than the fringe.
Best opensource tool I have ever seen.
In short: you can do a complete 3D movie. 3D Animation.
You can also use it for 3D printing etc.
The only downside: you need to know what you want to do & you need time to learn in order to get into a creative flow. But a lot of helpful tutorials can be found.
Comprehensive array of modeling, sculpring, and texturing tools with rendering capabilities. A powerful platform for game development, animation, or graphic design. It is complicated and requires a lot of learning, but at the same time it is intuitive and easy to use once you understand the basics!
So many features !
A need to have in a toolbag !!
My first use of Blender was to use it as a converter for various files formats !
And, after some time, I decided to start a journey to learn, and, with Blender, what a pleasure : WE ALWAYS LEARN NEW THINGS, new ways of making, baking, "cooking" 3D stuff in a more efficient and productive way, ginving "reality" to most of the ideas we can have !!
Blender is great! Awesome user experience and quality product.
