    For anyone looking to animate it. Go to frame one, open the node editor and select the outer material, add a Value node, connect the value node to the W and then right click the value number itself on the value node, add keyframe. Go to end frame or next frame you want to animate, repeat, add keyframe. Should be good to go!

    Really enjoyed this tutorial. I just found your channel. This is an amazing treasure trove of design and techniques in Blender. This should really make people question the value of paying for 3d software like Cinema 4d and Redshift, which is over $1000 per year, which is what I have been using for the most part.

    Hey Ducky. At 9:07 instead of opening up the RGB color selector (to "steal" the hex code), you can simply hover over the color block you want to copy in the principled BSDF shader, hit ctrl-c to copy and then hover over the color in the colorramp which you want to change, and then hit ctrl-v to paste. Save yourself 4 unnecessary steps. Blender rules!!!!
    Love your tuts as always. This one had especially great tips for making objects pop on a plane white background. Thank you.

    I’ve done this one going on my 4th run. Each time I learn something. Like don’t animate the skin 15000 points over 150 frames.
    Wow that was moving.
    The last one I couldn’t find what I hit . Looked great in viewport but rendered to almost full whitewash. This one I’ve spent a few hours playing with all aspects of lighting and placement. It’s a little easier now that I know what I’m trying to achieve and can picture the rendered version without rendering each single change.
    @TheDucky3D - Thanks for sharing your skills with us. Easy to follow and no annoying club music with a highlighted mouse pointer circling every single thing. I tried the damn donut a few months back. I find it much easier to do short, yet satisfying projects like your 10 min tutorials.
    They may take me a few days but I learn more in the end.
