Great projects are coming! :D

BlenderCat is a Blender association from Catalunya / Spain, around Barcelona area, and they organize Blender courses and events from time to time. I'm happy to announce that I'll be giving a class there next week, on friday 29th of March, keep reading for more info...

Hi guys!! I write this post to let you know what's up, since lately I'm not so much around here :) But that doesn't mean I've been playing videogames all the time (ok, I did play videogames also, but not that much hehe), I've been working on other stuff, and really busy with my full time job. So here go the news!!

A few days ago, I told you all about something that I was going to announce. Well... here you have it! Read the full post and watch the video to get more information about this project in which I've been involved for a while... and will start to get really serious very soon :D

This has nothing to do with Blender or Open Source Software, but it's something useful for me, and maybe some of you find this review useful also: With Cloud Syncing services being so popular, now Google Drive makes its appearance and I wanted to make a clear and in-depth comparison between it and Dropbox (with which it has a lot of similarities), probably the most popular cloud sync service in the market at the moment. Different aspects from the services will be covered, such as the web interface, the client, mobile apps...

That's it! I just moved to Madrid 2 months ago... and because of several sudden changes in the company in which I work, we need to have a team at Toledo, so I'm moving again... 

Next weekend (28th and 29th of October) I'll be giving a Master Class at the Blendercat festival at Barcelona! The Master Class will be about lowpoly character creation using blender :) I'll show modeling, uvs, texturing...

This week, Porter Nielsen (Blendercubed) published a review of the Hologram Project, released less than 3 weeks ago :) I'd like to express my gratitude for the work taken for doing this in-depth review, with which I agree with him both on the good and the bad points he spot on his video :) With his permission, I'm publishing his video right here, so you all can check it...

Hi everyone!! I've written this post for all of you who supported me while I was having issues with the Hologram Project release :D Now I have again an internet connection, and I'll start publishing new tutorials very soon :) It has been a very busy time, but you all converted it in a great experience for me ;) I love you, guys!

Finally, I'm announcing the final release date, and the work is almost finished :D Now let's hope everything goes as expected and that there won't be any problems with this first product :D Read this post for watching the preview!

If you didn't preordered it yet... do it before the release to benefit from the Preorder discount!

If you already preordered it... thanks a lot for the trust in blendtuts, you make this possible! :D

Hello!! On this post I'd like to introduce you a few news about how everything is going theese days :)

The hologram project, future tutorials, Bsurfaces, and Google+ :D See you into the post!

Blender 2.58 has been released! Since a few days ago we could see the new splash on the recent graphicall builds, but now it's finally official :D Hundreds of bugs have been fixed since the last version, and this is the second stable one from the 2.5x series...

I'm writing right now for letting you know that there are some new features here at blendtuts :) I need some sleep, and it's already 4:51 AM OMG!! So... I'm not going to expand a lot on this post ;) The first thing that I'd like to say is that since the last wednesday, you can register at the web!! There were several reasons for adding this options to blendtuts...

Hi! I've been studying the workflow for recording and publishing videos both in english and spanish, and for making it, as a test, I made a quick introduction to the new web :) I'm excited because this is actually the first video with audio in english and spanish :) Also, I've made a new intro video...

Hello!! First of all, I'd like to say that email receiving problems and rss feed inconveniences found since the publishing of the new web have been completely solved! (I hope!!) And then I want to show you the next tutorial that is coming :D I was making a few tests on how to create spiderwebs, but not just for a simple static render. I've been working on make it animatable with cloth simulation...

Hi everybody!! I know some of you have been writing to me theese days to my usual email account (oliver@blendtuts.com), but since we uploaded the new web, it seems that my account has given some kind of conflict, and I'm not able to receive any email at all :( I noticed it this morning...

I'm so excited! We already opened the new web, after a hard work! It was a complete redesign, and it started on December of the past year. It includes some new features, and some of them are still a bit "work in progress", but finally the new design saw the light!! Also, it's quite interesting, because in a few days, about a year have passed since I started working on this web...

The new Blender 2.5 reaches it's first stable release! It features some UI cleaning, some new features, and a looot of bugfixes! The idea from the Blender Foundation is to use this release to start adding new features and make them stable in trunk.
