Non-competing. Open - I downloaded a Red Bull can and painted over it to make it look more hand-drawn.

“Preparations for the search for the secret ingredient”

non-competing, Pure, Blender 3.6.

I have not the time to finish it. Originally, I was going for something like “there is no secret ingredient, there are endless hours of trial and failure”. Which is too ambitious in itself for a WE-Challenge. :wink:

So, I just put all together, what i had, and changed the title, before going to the jam session today.

Yeah, there is a piece of table missing, but it’s a feature, not a bug :wink:
Anyway, I’m already happy, that nothing just hovers in the Air :sweat_smile:

Secret Ingredient for Snow White


pure, eevee

I started to play with different styles lately and I’m happy I finished the project. I wasn’t sure about finishing an hour ago since the shader didn’t want to work the way I wanted :wink:

Pure entry. I tried for a long time to make good looking webbing but I’m running out of time. I think this is the best I can get.
