Want to take the first step to using particles and metaballs in Blender? This book provides a step-by-step, brief introduction to Blender’s particle systems and metaballs through a simple project. I’ll demonstrate how to combine the two objects to create automated, animated geometry. I’ll then show how to build an Eevee shader out of nodes and apply it to the geometry to create a cartoon effect.

This 37-page book includes high-resolution images and detailed descriptions of every step. Two PDFs are included – one with a single-page layout and one with a double-page layout. The final Blender file is also included.
