Today, I challenged myself to create a replacement for incremental save. It saves the scene with your input & version it with v1.01 for incremental saves and v2.0 for major version saves. It also creates appended notes in a txt file. It’s promising, but I’ll keep playing.

Wrapped up the Cinema 4D scripts I’ve been working on. Once they’re tested, I’ll look into ways to get these to our members. In the meantime, let me know if you want to know more about any of these 👇

10/🧵 20 Geometric Zen Stones
I’ve been seeing these geometric stacking stones in so many product renders lately. We wanted to create our own take on them, and now you can use them in your projects to add a sense of balance and style.

9/🧵 8 New Cyc Walls
Cyc walls are one of those tools that seem simple but are incredibly useful. Whether you need a clean, curved backdrop or something a bit more stylized, these walls are fully UV’d and ready to go.

8/🧵 10 New Concrete Block Models
These chipped and worn concrete blocks are perfect for product platforms or industrial backdrops. I’ve been wanting these in our library for years, and now that they’re here, I can’t stop using them.

7/🧵 70 New Product Photography Props
This collection is becoming a go-to for our team when making modern product renders. It’s full of plinths, steps, and other props that make your compositions feel effortless. Honestly, you’d have to try to make something that doesn’t look good with these. 😅

6/🧵 40 New Area Light Maps
At an event, a customer told me how much they rely on our Area Light Maps for reflective products, but they wanted more abstract options. That stuck with me. So, we added these new maps to give you even more creative lighting possibilities.

5/🧵 30 New Grid Textures
A friend suggested adding grid textures, and it just clicked. This collection is full of alpha patterns you can use to add subtle techy vibes or layer into your designs. They’re simple but super versatile—and a lot of fun to experiment with.

4/🧵 18 New Scanned Stone Terrazzo Materials
I’ve always loved terrazzo for its unique, organic look. This is the first time we’ve had scanned options in our library, and they are perfect for creating beautiful product backgrounds or adding texture to a render. You’re going to love these. 😊

3/🧵 60 New Scanned Limewash Wall Paints
The team painted and scanned dozens of Limewash paints, and they’ve quickly become my favorite for backdrops. For weeks, our studio was filled with large drywall sheets covered in these amazing textures—it was wild.

2/🧵 40 New Scanned Concrete Materials
We partnered with Chicago Concrete to create an incredible collection of concrete materials. We worked with their team to experiment with finishes and textures that we’ve always wanted in our own projects. Now, you get to use them too! 🎉
