In this video I will show you how to create a solid 3d object from an image by first creating an svg image in Gimp image editor, and than converting an svg image to a solid 3d object in Blender.

  1. This video solved a file formatting problem that has haunted me for years. Blender does things well that expensive 3D programs won't do at all. This video helped me solve my file problem on my first day with Blender. Huge thanks to Chipper Videos!

  2. Great tutorial on TWO topics in one. First this video provides a great introduction to some basic UI features and techniques for navigating the Blender interface (and a little Gimp). I suffered through a different tutorial earlier as the creator used hotkey after hotkey without even mentioning them. Menu's just popped up in the video as if from magic without even a breadcrumb trail to follow back. This instructor provides excellent directions even if you're only starting with Blender.

    Second, this is a solid and simple walkthrough to make a 3D object. He could have used an object created in Blender (like a Text object), but by using a Gimp SVG, he really delivers a powerful and reusable technique that feels like a foundational skill for anyone using Blender. Fantastic result.

  3. This is by far one of the best video tutorials on any topic! Clear, perfect pacing, easy to know exactly what to click, and – IT WORKS!!!! lol thx very very much! I learned a ton, and I've got like an hour total time in blender before trying this!!!

  4. Your videos is absolutely perfect. You speak slowly and clearly and you give the watcher more than enough time to do what you are explaining needs to be done. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you and the fact that you have taken your time to help people like myself. Thank you! I am subscribing!
