(Update: July 13: This article contains a load of sections and screenshots. Scroll down real fast if you must!)

I am going to use the videos surrounding this text as benchmarks for a modified version of my current project.

Screenshots:






In the first video, the creator shows to create a circle with 24 "vertices" (or "verticles", depending on who you ask how to spell this V-word), extrude twice, and do everything to make it look like a crayon/pen marker. This includes scaling.

In the second video, another creator shows to create a circle as well, but with 33 vertices. The creator is highly obsessed (in a good way) with using Control+R.


This article is under construction for more details coming tomorrow


UPDATE

I uploaded a new video of mine regarding a circus project and have decided not to move forward with the first project. I used the first seven minutes of the second video listed above for a new project listed below.

FINAL UPDATE

This is my eighth and final day working on this post. (July 13)



I started each of the two videos above with, "Hello everybody! This is your boy... (my preferred name at the time of making the video)." For the first time ever, I have listed my Blender videos in one playlist on YouTube, making it much easier for my friends and fans to see my tutorial videos. Although in this case, I am not really displaying tutorial videos; I'm showing more on the rendering side of things when it comes to these three circuses. I tried to scale parts of the circuses behind the big main one but they couldn't integrate correctly by themselves; I had to do this all on my own for five to ten minutes until I finally got them right.


The guy who showed tutorials on how to make a circus for Blender 2.91 sometimes showed mismatching key functions and for me that was a challenge. It took me eight whole days to complete this whole project, but I do think there is room for more items in that project. I planned on continuing with the project for the second week because practice makes perfect. I made sure every piece is good for the rendering scene, but I didn't partake in the modeling scene at all (though I did provide a screenshot on the very bottom of this article for proof of the modeling scene).


As much as I love to make cars my hobby, I see myself designing other things as well. As an autistic person who is looking to expand my hobbies, the first thing I like to do is look for things other people like to talk about. I don't want to be friends with people who only think like me, or only be friends with people who like the same things. On the contrary, the automobile has become a relatively niche subject that -- in today's world -- is actually becoming less relevant in society, as more people are focused on other ways of transportation, people are waiting longer to get their license, and electricity and even petroleum are still quite a controversy amongst modern car enthusiasts. My followers are far less likely to engage with my car posts on Instagram and TikTok, as compared with my other posts.


I've really thought about building houses, and since that is hard, circuses come to a close second. I love clowns. Especially THIS clown:
