Creating an Anime Style Forest Scene in Blender (+Free Download)

Bart ·

Follow PolygonVariable along as they create this typical anime/Gimli style scene.

This time, I attempted to create an anime-style forest scene in Blender, which I later post-processed in Photoshop. It’s also the first time I used a layer-based system instead of Cryptomatte, along with the Kuwahara node for composition.

The .blend of this scene is available for free from Gumroad.

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 Community Lead at n8n.
