Currently having a go at Blob Fusion, the first SDF add-on for #Blender, which has recently been updated.

You can add any Blender mesh as an SDF object, and keep a dynamic link, so you can adjust the source mesh / its modifiers, and see the derived SDF version auto-update. 🤩

Other features include coloring of elements, and a full hierarchy, making it similar to how ZBrush ZSpheres or Blender's Skin modifier works, but on steroids.

Blobs plus power of the rainbow

I’ve started making a Spongebob with the Blob Fusion SDF add-on for Blender, using a box mesh with some modifiers, that is live-converted to an SDF element.

I'm using a dynamic box primitive from the wMesh Blender add-on, so I can non-destructively, parametrically change the box polygon count, before the modifiers (3ds Max primitive style).

A little Spongebob update…

As I'm making this in the Blob Fusion add-on for Blender (see previous posts in this thread), I've named the scene file "Spongeblob Fusionpants." 🤡

It's a refreshing workflow, combining polygon modeling with SDF modeling. #MagicaCSG is much faster though, because it has got a dedicated ray-marching renderer, while Blob Fusion works with Blender's mesh renderers.

Spongeblob Fusionpants update…

I've converted the Blob Fusion Blender add-on result to a mesh, for further adjustments in Sculpt Mode.

In conclusion, Blob Fusion is a very interesting modeling tool, but the mesh-to-SDF function makes the result too slow to be really useful on current hardware and the current speed of the Geometry Nodes volume / voxel functions.

But if you use the SDF primitives, Blob Fusion is definitely a great and useful modeling tool.

Spongeblob Fusionpants update…

Added some polygon elements, and used the Blob Fusion SDF add-on for Blender to quickly shape the shoes. Will polish them in Sculpt Mode later on.

See previous posts in this thread for more info and work-in-progress impressions.

Spongeblob Fusionpants update…

I've been procrastinating a lot between modeling sessions, so this one takes a bit longer. 😊

Modeling is nearing the end. Need to fuse the hands with the arms, add a tongue, teeth, belt, etc.. Then it's time to add some details and finish in Blender Sculpt Mode.

@metin To quote the German voice actor of Spongebob: "Ich bin bereit, ich bin in Form, ich bin bereit, ja ganz enorm!"

Looks really cool so far! I'm curious to see how your final scene will look like 🙂

@daniel Thanks man! 🙏

And very funny to hear SpongeBob in German. I usually prefer the original audio, especially in anime, but in SpongeBob’s case, I thought the Dutch voices are even better than the original.

@metin For me it depends. Germany has a very good dubbing culture with very good voice actors. There are cases where their performance surpasses that of the original (voice) actors. In the case of Spongebob, his German voice is iconic in Germany:

I have to listen to the Dutch voice. It's always interesting to hear cartoon characters in different languages 🙂

@daniel German voice synchronization is very good indeed. When I was a kid, the Netherlands had two Dutch TV channels and three German channels: ARD, WDR and ZDF. I used to watch the German Sesamstraße, and saw lots of movies in German. I know the shark in Jaws better as “Haifisch,” haha. 😁 Part of my German language proficiency comes from watching German TV. @CWernerArt @mbt3d @Shkspr80
