The Great Library

Bart · June 5, 2012

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.

OH! Nice! Inspired by a french tutoriels Blender Art masterclass vol.6? Look like verry similare!

But, you have pirated the book? It’s not available in your country…Many creation on this site are the outcome of masterclass vol.6, but this book is only available in french… Blender is free software, but that does not mean you can hack anything that talks about blender.

Wow, quick to jump the gun and blame someone of piracy, ain’t it?
What says his image is created from those two tutorials? How do you explain the detail in the hall? And if the bookcases were inspired by the bookcases in that tutorial, what makes you say he pirated the tutorials?

Or he could have been inspired by this:

  Hey guys. Thanks for the comments. I didn’t use any tutorials for this, but Timothy is right. I drew a lot of inspiration from the library in Hugo, and also a few other references I found on Google Images.
