ARC art

Blender projects and artwork videos by ARC (Abdullah Rashed AlSahli), made 2019-2024.

The Blender files and videos behind 154 of my artworks. Use them for anything non-commercial: learn from them, take them apart, remix them.

My disability makes it hard for me to make more art. This is a way for my art to continue to grow.

ARC

Every artwork has a number, arc-001 to arc-154, in the order it was first posted. Its video and its Blender project share the number: videos/arc-001.mp4 and blend/arc-001/arc-001.blend.

What's here

• videos/: 152 artwork videos (1.1 GB). Each is the best copy found: the original render where it still exists (132), otherwise the posted video. 35 of these artworks have no Blender project here.
• blend/: 119 Blender projects (6.6 GB). Each folder has the .blend, files/ (textures, skies, caches; the .blend uses relative paths) and a README.txt with the title, a link to the post, the Blender version, resolution, frame range and anything changed for this release.
• thumbnails/: one still per Blender project.
• viewer/: the tables shown on this page (videos and Blender projects, latest first, with a still of each).
• Tables (latest artwork first): videos/metadata.csv and blend/index.csv. title is ARC's title where the piece has one, otherwise "Untitled"; caption is the text it was posted with.

Opening the files

Some of these files are old: most of the projects from 2019 to 2021 were made in Blender 2.8 to 2.9. Those may not open cleanly or may not render exactly like the video. The videos show how each piece is meant to look.

The files were saved with Blender 4.3; open them in 4.3 or newer. They render with Cycles, at the resolution and frame range they were made with. Renders go to render/ next to the .blend. Each README notes what to know before rendering (for example, rigid body simulations that run live from the first frame).

Changed for this release

• Content from paid add-ons and material packs (Pro Lighting Studio light images, DECALmachine decals, glass, metal and marble materials, surface wear maps) is replaced.
• Unused data is removed, file names are replaced by the arc-NNN numbers, and render output paths point to render/.
• Two Blender projects whose simulation cache was lost (the main subject rendered empty) are left out; their videos are here.

Licence

CC BY-NC 4.0. You can share and adapt the files and videos for non-commercial purposes, crediting "ARC (arc.art)". Selling them or anything made from them (renders, prints, NFTs, products, the files themselves) needs ARC's permission.

Questions about the licence or commercial use: arc@hey.com

The licence covers ARC's own work. 4 videos are collaborations (named in the with column); the collaborators keep their rights to their part. Some scenes contain ordinary third-party images (photos, screenshots); those stay with their owners.
