I've been a 3D-artist for around 2 years now, and I still learned a lot from this video. Seriously, great job exploring and implementing all those different techniques together.

I dont do blender myself, but I love to watch your tutorials. They're so cozy and nice❤

Wonderful tutorial. I spent the past five years focused on modeling, geo nodes and shader notes. This marks the beginning into Grease Pencil. Thanks very much!

[fleetlee]

Every time I watch some blender tuts, I always learn something new ... and it's never simple, or easy to remember ... But it's always exiting! Thanks!

For the fog effect you can do it with camera data node in the shader editor.
Add the camera data node and then link the depth socket to the math node and keep adding or subtracting until the effect start to show up.

I love these tutorials, thank you! Btw you can get slightly nicer starts by choosing the Minkowsky distance in the Voronoi node.
