15 Ultimate add-ons for Blender | Blender 2.8 | R Animation studios

you hey guys welcome to this new video I am going to discuss top 15 blender add-ons that you must include in your toolkit from now starting from last blender kit at number 15 now I know that you know this it on well as this comes packaged with blender itself this add-on is a collection of assets with this add-on you can find and download online models brushes and materials directly in blender there is no limit on how many assets you can download you can enjoy blender kit for free or get the full database for the monthly fee of five dollars per month it's a very helpful add on for your toolset let's suppose you are making a scene you need different assets for that and for every asset you have to model it manually and that will consume a lot of your essential time so blender kit makes it easy for you using blender kit you get access to a very large database of assets for free you can use assets from blender Kids for any commercial purpose without worrying about restrictions number 14 is retopo flow this is an awesome add-on for blender which helps you create smooth efficient and effective models for triple a quality versions of your detailed sculpts read apology is the process of taking a model with bad topology and making a copy of that model but this time with good topology it is essentially the process of fixing a model with bad topology read apology is actually used to complement the other modeling techniques where topology took a backseat retopo flow consists of many tools for rate apalla sizing like contours of poly pen poly strips etc and many more tools which help you in building a very good topology of your 3d model currently retopo flow is available for purchase on blender market for $86 you can purchase it there link to all the add-ons which I am discussing are in the description on number 13 it is real snow and awesome and free it on by Markham 3d this helps in generating snow on top of 3d objects very easily this add-on automatically has a realistic PBR snow material to make the snow look good in every environment and also this is very simple to use this and only just a few settings to tweak so even beginners could use this but snow is not very customizable even though I would recommend using this add-on because this add-on being a free one does its job perfectly you can get it on his website the link is in the description next one is number 12 on number 12 we have gaffer ad on ghetto is a blender add on that helps you light your scenes by presenting all the right settings and convenient panels for quick access and experimentation this is an awesome add-on in one of my favorite add-ons because according to me lighting is the most important part of the scene as it can change the complete mood of the image so to depict the exact story through your image you need correct light and here comes gapper which plays an important role in adjusting your light setting this is available on the blender market for $20 you can purchase it there but if you want to try it first then you can this add-on is provided for free by the creator himself so you can get this for free on his github page so coming next on number 11 we have physical starlight on again this is one of my favorite ones this is an awesome addon to add realism to your scene using this I don't you create an atmosphere that is exactly what a real atmosphere looks like if you observe the real atmosphere it always has some dust in it and because of that whenever we are seeing the distant mountains or anything that is at a large distance from us is not clearly visible and it is somewhat faded with the distance because of dust in the atmosphere and replicating this exact phenomenon in the blender is a bit difficult task but it is necessary to do for the sake of realism and for that this add-on does its job very nicely this add-on is value for money and I think if you are looking for this kind of product you can look into it you can read more about this in the description of this product on blender market coming next on number 10 it is mesh machine and also met on 4 mesh modeling and to do hard surface work inside of the blender you may have heard about this add-on earlier as this is a very popular add-on for hard surface modeling and I can see the satin on continuing its position in most popular add-ons since a long time on blender market if you are into the field of hard surface modeling like modeling robots or machine systems etc you should purchase this add-on it is available for $40 on the blender market entry on number 10 it is an awesome add-on for generating trees in blender M tree means modular tree and this is a node based system of generating trees if you are generating trees from sapling tree gen that comes with blender it has one disadvantage that while tweaking settings if you click somewhere else on the screen by mistake the panel will disappear and this does not happen in case of M tree add-on you get some notes to generate trees and it has its own node editor called entry this add-on is available on github page of modular tree link to the github pages in description under this video and of course you can sell the trees generated using this addon currently it has seven notes branch trunk roads grow tree parameters split and twig node all these nodes are self-explanatory by their name it is not very difficult using the set on but still there are a lot of tutorials available online if you are not able to handle it by yourself the number eight is blaze it on which is an awesome addon for shading your fire this addon gives you cinematic shader with 13 different color presets so that you can create different custom effects this add-on simplifies the process of difficult tweaking of
