Behind the Code: The Story of RetopoFlow and its Success

0

The Blender Market blog offers us a look behind the scenes of the development of RetopoFlow, their popular retopology toolkit.

That Friday was as beautiful and hot as they get in Chicago in July and the following weekend promised more of the same. Yet, the three gentlemen met with a plan to stay behind closed doors for three days straight. The reason was an intense coding sprint and their goal was to come out at the other end with a tool that is better, stronger and more stable than ever before.

The tool in question is of course the famous RetopoFlow and the three gentlemen were none other than Jonathan Williamson, Jonathan Denning and Patrick Moore, the team behind RetopoFlow’s success.

The short story is that they succeeded and caught up on their tans on the weekend that followed. The long story is a must-read for anyone looking to make the big bucks with their next Blender add-on.

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.
