Wow, this has been quite the month (and a half)!
I'm finally done with all 30 #nodevember prompts!
Each is made from a sphere primitive with a procedural shader in Blender.
Thanks to everyone for the amazing support and overwhelmingly positive feedback! :)

I’m developing a new animation sustem for #blender3d . Draw trajectories on the screen and trace the speed as a graph, and go.
Works for armatures + objects, soon public. Early access for my tipeee subscribers, if you wanna support and test it now! 🙏🙏
