      <title>Exploring Materials &amp; Rendering in Blender - My Practice</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I’d really appreciate any advice or tips from other 3D devs or artists!&lt;br&gt;
Do you have suggestions to make my materials look more realistic?&lt;br&gt;
Any ideas on how to improve my lighting setups?&lt;br&gt;
How would you handle reflections or shadows in a scene like this?&lt;br&gt;
I’m still learning Blender, so any guidance to help me improve my rendering workflow would mean a lot! 🙏&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here’s some of my work so far:&lt;br&gt;

      <title>Learning Blender as a Web 3D Developer - Can Someone Guide Me?</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Hi everyone! 👋&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’m a Web 3D developer, but I’ve never really made 3D models in Blender before. I do have some experience with Maya and Unity, so I figured it’s time to dive into Blender.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yesterday, I spent some time experimenting with lights - sun, spot, point, and area lights - and it was actually really fun! 😄&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here’s what I made so far:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fe7mnfxlewyf5vpqfx5mc.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fe7mnfxlewyf5vpqfx5mc.png" alt=" " width="800" height="430"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F08ny363eldcqy51t4eaw.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F08ny363eldcqy51t4eaw.png" alt=" " width="800" height="429"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Looking for a US or Canada student partner to find projects</title>
      <dc:creator>Kenneth</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Wed, 04 Mar 2026 13:19:32 +0000</pubDate>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Hi everyone,&lt;br&gt;
I’m a developer who enjoys building real web products and technical projects.&lt;br&gt;
Recently I’ve been thinking about a simple collaboration idea.&lt;br&gt;
I’m looking to connect with U.S.- and Canada-based college students who might enjoy networking, finding opportunities, or exploring startup ideas.&lt;br&gt;
The concept is simple:&lt;br&gt;
• You help find projects or clients in the U.S. or Canadian market &lt;br&gt;
• I handle the technical work and product development &lt;br&gt;
• We share the revenue&lt;br&gt;
I’m comfortable building the full product myself and I care a lot about delivering real results.&lt;br&gt;
This could be interesting if you:&lt;br&gt;
• want real project experience &lt;br&gt;
• want to earn some side income &lt;br&gt;
• are curious about building products or startups&lt;br&gt;
I’m also happy to help with programming topics if you’re studying computer science or learning development.&lt;br&gt;
My English is not native-level, but I communicate clearly and always try to improve.&lt;br&gt;
If this idea sounds interesting, feel free to reach out.&lt;br&gt;
It would be great to build something together.&lt;br&gt;
