We are producing a lot more articles a month here in Blender 3D Architect, and sometimes you may miss some of them along the month. On average, we are close to 30-40 articles a month. It may not seem much, but when you look back to a full month list it is a lot of content.
Since we share some free resources and tips about Blender, we tough it would be a great idea to make a summary of articles at the end of each month. And starting today you will find on every first Monday of the month a summary of links from the previous 30 days.
How do we choose the articles? We will get the article list by the number of unique visitors to each page. From our reports, you should take a look at six articles that are among the top picks in February 2018.
The summery will grow with time because we have plans to double the number of articles we post every month!
