does anyone have a good way for making 3d glassy shape stuff like the os x aqua wallpapers

@mavica_again Blender would probably work well. (However Blender has a steep learning curve and is a deep dive - Blender Guru’s donut and coffee is a critical first step.)

1. Set up subdivided plane for the glass shapes (separate for each shape)
2. Twist and adjust geometry
3. Subdivide for smooth goodness
4. Solidify to go from 2D to 3D
5. Set up a glass material or materials for the surfaces
6. Set up camera and light as well as a background plane
7. Render with denoising

@DeltaWye i already know how to work the blender UI, i'm mostly wondering if there's a generative program that will make the curved shapes, like how there are things such as tree generators for pov-ray. i should've specified that in the main post (replies don't federate with boosts of the main post)

thanks for the tips!
