@FernLovebond use gimp and inkscape, and declare this the year I get started with blender.
Did a little video edit with blender -- easy and not even something I thought it would do.
They finally added GIMP, which I'd used for years before my captivity, and Inkscape, which I'd never tried, and blender, which I hadn't even heard of. They also got us instruction books for each. I did the basics for blender's first few chapters, but I then focused on GIMP and Inkscape. REALLY cool together.
Although I wasn't into blender as much, I saw people make some pretty good stuff in just a couple months learning. Glad you found it easy enough 🙂

Yay! More artistic types 🙂
While incarcerated, I begged the "Digital Design" class to add GIMP to its PCs (they had PhotoShop before it went hard cloud, & never paid for another license once it did, so we ended up with just old versions of MS Office). I wrote a dozen or so requests to various staff to PLEASE give us free, opensource software like GIMP--it costs them nothing but time to install, is typically useful on older PCs, and lets us meet edu standards. Took 5 years. 🧵1/2
