Prototyping with real-world scenarios, even fictional ones, is one of the best ways to sharpen skills, so here's a "client-style" exercise: a website hero animation.
Keeping motion clean in hero sections is trickier than it looks. Every bit of movement needs to earn its place, or it just competes for attention instead of drawing people in.
This is a mockup solar flower hero, built and rendered in Blender using Eevee for fast real-time iteration. The animation itself is intentionally simple and the real focus here was on the rigging setup driving it.
this is so fascinating to watch in motion, excellent concept!
CLASS!!
This so pretty!!!

I spent the last week challenging myself to design, brand and 3D model a minimal supplement. I experimented with compositing nodes to add a blur in some renders, which one do y'all like more?

I don’t get how web designers complain about spending hours on one hero section.
I’ll easily go through 10+ iterations before I even know which directions are worth showing the client
10+ iterations before the client sees anything is the unglamorous secret behind every calm site like this. A psychosocial risk brand has to feel trustworthy without going cold, and this nails that balance. The restraint is doing the heavy lifting.
