Description

For anyone working in the computer graphics industry, understanding how to use Blender’s new geometry nodes tools to manipulate and generate 3D geometry in a node-based workflow is an essential skill. In this book, you’ll learn how to use the basic and intermediate features of geometry nodes that are a crucial part of your Blender roadmap. You’ll start by understanding the different node inputs and outputs followed by the basic nodes you’ll need throughout your geometry nodes projects. The book will show you how the node system works and enable you to put your newfound knowledge to use through exercises that involve modifying curves, meshes, and more. You’ll work on a range of interesting projects such as creating a procedural plant, where you’ll use nodes to generate the intricate details and variations of a plant in a procedural manner, and a spiderweb generator to refine your skills of cleaning up a node tree. Finally, you’ll build a procedural LED panel using geometry nodes to generate the look of an LED panel. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to overcome any geometry node issue confidently and make complicated geometry node trees exactly how you need them.

Everything you need to know how to start and master geometry nodes in Blender. I highly recommend this book.

I’ve started using geometry nodes for about 2 months, and I found I understood it but had a lot of gaps in my knowledge. Siemen’s book has cleared out all the cobwebs, not to mention you also make some in the book. He explains in detail node groups, types and usage with great examples you’ll want to reuse on multiple projects.

Kindle Customer Mar 18, 2023

The media could not be loaded. For those who have experience with Blender or with using node systems, this book is very easy to follow.For those who are new to 3D modeling, this book is at a intermediate level and may require some trouble shooting and research, but is still very do-able.

AoiMarch Mar 29, 2023

This handbook is such a helpful guild for me to learn geometry nodes. I was surprised that it gives a lot of detailed information/explanations/examples about the different nodes. Like I know what the node is for, but it is really hard to explain. But the explanation in the book is very clear. The example is also helpful for me to practice. It is more like a node "dictionary“.

juye Mar 27, 2023

I usually using Blender a lot, and this book helped me a lot using Blender. I usually just modeling by simple geometry, but If we use geometry nodes it is easier than just modeling at all and easy to fix it either. I think it is even can use for professional usage. I like the shading and clustering and everything. Especially, the grass part is amazing. It would be definitely help my work.
