I 3D Printed My Most Viewed Blender Tutorial on a Bambu Lab H2C
This is one of my favorite 3D prints I've ever made. It's a bakery planter — and it glows. This was inspired by a Grease Pencil tutorial I made about 4 years ago that became my most viewed video on the channel. Bambu Lab sent me their new H2C printer and I thought it was a great opportunity to take the bakery from the digital world and make it real.
When I decided to do this I hadn't done anything this involved before. I started 3D printing about a year and a half ago and most of my designs have been decorative or simple functional items. But the H2C is built for multicolor workflows and I wanted to push what I could do — from both a technical and creative standpoint. It was a huge learning experience. But I really loved how it turned out.
I Turned My Illustration into a 3D Printed Bookmark
So me and Theo have been on a big reading kick lately. If you don't know, Theo is my desk plant, and he's kind of taken on a life of his own around here. He's been going through books faster than I can keep up, and I noticed I'd been using a napkin as my bookmark. Not exactly ideal. So I thought, why not make something better? Something illustrated, sturdy, and actually worth using. Theo approved the idea, which matters because he's been my pseudo art director lately.
