Happy Black Birthday 🔗

BlenderKit is now three years old. It's older, but it's also wiser and a lot cooler.
Let's look at what we've accomplished in the last year.

  • Over 650 artists uploaded assets to our website. That's quite a bunch!
  • The artists uploaded over 12 000 assets. Over 57% of these assets are free.
  • Over 200 000 artists registered to BlenderKit. Additionally, there are many more artists using the add-on without registration.
  • The add-on went through many improvements.
  • Many front-page design improvements, a completely new and redesigned Profile section, and the possibility of Asset management right on our webpage.
  • We were also able to introduce new asset types: HDR and Scenes. Resolutions save a lot of bandwidth and memory.
  • Thanks to your subscriptions, we sent over 10 500€ to the Blender Development Fund just in this year. Good job on making every Blender artist a bit happier!
  • We published several tutorial videos especially for you: Activation and Basic Usage in Blender 2.9, Model upload tutorial, Material upload tutorial.
  • The amazing BlenderKit community released many more tutorials: this or this and much more!
  • We continuously improve our web pages, currently focusing on bringing you Comments and Notifications system. We're really looking forward to bring you more new surprises.

Don't forget to take advantage of our gift of a 25% discount on your subscription and keep it forever.
