April 3, 201214 yr Hey all. As opening day approaches, I'd like to share with you all my 3D rotating Marlins logo that I made. Please keep in mind, though, that I'm not an artist and I'm kind of new to working in Blender 3D (the 3D animation program I made the logo in). Also, unfortunately, due to the compression of the video and putting it up on Youtube, some quality and detail were lost. Be sure to watch the videos in the highest quality setting! There's two versions of the logo. This first version is a bit more simpler, which I've titled the "Normal Version": http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3NNl37d0T4 This second version of the same logo may look similar, but note that I've given the base of the M and the marlin part a more metallic look to it using a shiny material and texture: http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=dS4K5NzOhxA If the embedded videos seem to go slow or skip, you can view the videos on my Youtube page: First Version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3NNl37d0T4&hd=1 Second Version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dS4K5NzOhxA&hd=1 I hope you guys like it. Please let me know what you think or at least like the post if you like the logo
April 3, 201214 yr I really hate to be the douchebag in this, but ... Please keep in mind, though, that I'm not an artist and I'm kind of new to working in Blender 3D (the 3D animation program I made the logo in). Anyways, you already know what I think of this, HDC. Nicely done!

Nicely done! That was totally edited after, or I'm just blind.

April 4, 201214 yr Author Thanks everyone Yeah it was created in Blender 3D and open source (free) 3D modeling and animation program. blender.org is the site. It used to be used for professional production in the 90s then became open source later on
April 4, 201214 yr Author So... Adobe Illustrator? Never used Illustrator. Just Blender. Took me a couple of months (off and on..little a time) to make the logo. I might turn it into a screen saver using the frames of the animation
April 4, 201214 yr Okay so Illustrator! heh ok Illustrator in a Blender I'm just messin with ya, it's really cool though. You should steal Adobe Illustrator. Pretty powerful program.
April 4, 201214 yr Okay so Illustrator! heh ok Illustrator in a Blender I'm just messin with ya, it's really cool though. You should steal Adobe Illustrator. Pretty powerful program. Not really. Illustrator isn't half a third as good for 3D rendering as things like Maya, 3ds Max, or Blender. It's not meant for that.
April 4, 201214 yr Well it doesn't look to me like the only thing he does is 3D. I'm pretty sure you can do anything Illustrator can do in Maya, graphically.

April 4, 201214 yr Author Okay so Illustrator! heh ok Illustrator in a Blender I'm just messin with ya, it's really cool though. You should steal Adobe Illustrator. Pretty powerful program. Thanks. I can't really afford Adobe's programs. Not sure about Illustrator though..I wish I could get Photoshop actually, instead I have Corel's Paint Shop Pro since it came with my computer heh. Blender is a very powerful program though..I haven't even discovered all the things it can do yet but it's not technically made for image editing although it has some capabilities of that as well as basic video/audio editing. I used 3D Studios way back when it was for DOS but haven't used it since. It was actually a very cool program but at the prices for 3DS and Maya and such...I'm happy with Blender since it's free and trustworthy.

I use Adobe Photoshop 5. I can't afford PS6. I will have PS6 when it comes out.
April 4, 201214 yr Author Nice Job...looks sweet!!! Thanks Thanks to everyone who checked out my logo. I unfortunately never got around to finishing another version that I was working on but with baseball starting, I figured I should put those up at least.
