I am Michel Anders and I am a developer, writer and trainer.
My most visible achievements to date are my books and Blender add-ons: they were available on BlenderMarket (now Superhive), Smashwords and Packt and major online retailers.
But lately I turned away from these activities to focus on different subjects, and the website/blog you are now visiting will reflect that.
Most topics on this site will not be Blender related probably, but I am in the process of open sourcing the add-ons I previously sold on BlenderMarket, and those will appear in repositories on GitHub.
The ones available already are (links are to my other blog):
IDMapper, IDMapper simplifies creation and editing of vertex color layers that can be used as ID-maps in texturing software like Substance Painter or Quixel.
Snap!, a time saving tool for people who often work with modular assets packs or creators of asset packs who want to make their product easier to use.
Weightlifter, a Swiss army knife of recording mesh attributes to vertex weights or -colors.
and yes, I am a certified Python developer too 🙂
