On turning on 'rendered mode' in Eevee you literally see the image on the left - a flat, grey canvas. Which can be frustrating, but it's also a metaphorical CANVAS for lighting experiments 🤭
So it's all good!
p.s. The img from the upcoming #eevee course for #blender.

Crazy how far we’ve come. This is Blender’s viewport in 2025 and yep, that bottom-right window is EEVEE rendering in real time.

Niko just dropped a Blender course on mechanical rigging - perfect for building complex-looking mechanical setups and bringing your #hardsurface #b3d designs to life in no time! 🔥🤯

This isn’t an ad or anything btw, we’re just excited to share it :)

HDRI photoscans are kind of fun - integrating 3d objects inside these environments is a breeze, for certain workflows.

Mostly BIG (and hence, soft) area lights, with the key-fill ratio being something like 3:1 (not super contrasty, obviously). A slightly different tint to all these area lights, to make sure it's not completely uniform in terms of color, and there's some separation still.

hahah :D

Gleb Alexandrov @glebalexandrov.bsky.social · 8d

Definitely!

Hey peeps, raise your left leg 🦵 if you wanted to see more MODELING, uv-ing, etc changes in Blender 5.0. The fancy shmancy VSE and compositing features are fine, but where are the modeling toolz!
