First Of All, Why Do Independent Artists Like Blender?<\/h3>\n

Blender<\/a> is often the go-to CG animation software for independent artists over other comprehensive software like Maya<\/a> and Cinema 4D mainly because it\u2019s free.<\/p>\n

Because of this, Blender has attracted a large and active community that shares free tutorials, plugins, and resources for other artists to use. This means it\u2019s easy to pick up and become self-taught \u2013 something many independent artists prefer.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re on the independent artist path, consider trying out Blender before jumping into other paid options.<\/p>\n
