About Blender
Blender is open source’s greatest creative triumph: modeling, sculpting, animation, simulation, and the Cycles renderer at a standard studios respect, funded by an industry consortium including former skeptics. Geometry nodes opened procedural workflows; the ecosystem of tutorials is bottomless. Massive studio pipelines still favor Maya inertia, but each year that gap narrows.
