See you soon at Blender Conference 2025 in Amsterdam! Development of the next release is in full swing... the draw tool will soon grow-while-you-draw, and you'll be drawing not just new branches, but also completely new trees wherever you want. Have fun growing!

Ongoing research into the aging and regeneration of really old trees like these. Trying to get crown retrenchment going to keep the trees alive for even longer.

I usually don't plan new releases, there's just a time when I can just feel the state of the code has reached a level that warrants a new release... And I can tell it's getting close.

The finishing touch of every release is always a complete run-through of the list of presets, to tweak them to perfection.

We contribute to the Blender's dev fund, on a monthly basis. As @rileyb3d.bsky.social mentions, and that's on point, "There's a long way to go from 0.1% to 2% so GO make a difference and donate. I remember the last big dev-fund push changed the software forever (2.8)". Make a difference. #b3d
