Tutorial 1
Open ABLUR. Look around.
Easy
Discover ABLUR's core features
Your first time in ABLUR. We'll walk you through every panel and what it does. By the end, the interface won't feel foreign anymore.
- What ABLUR is and what it makes
- Importing a starter scene
- Understanding the main workspace
- Saving your first project
Tip. Don't try to make anything yet. Just open it and click around. The point of Tutorial 1 is: "ABLUR is on my screen and I'm not lost."

Tutorial 2
Move through your scene.
Easy
Take a stroll with ABLUR
3D space is the part most new users worry about. We make it muscle memory in 5 minutes — pan, orbit, zoom. Then it just works.
- Move up, down, left, right
- Orbit around any object
- Zoom in for close-ups, out for wide shots
- Reset the camera when you get lost
Tip. Get lost on purpose. The fastest way to learn 3D is to push every button and see what happens — there's an undo for everything.

Tutorial 3
Make the scene yours.
Normal
Use ABLUR's advanced tools to fine-tune your background
A starter scene is just a starting point. Now you'll move things around, change materials, and adjust lighting until the scene matches the panel in your head.
- Reposition props and characters
- Swap materials and textures
- Adjust lighting and atmosphere
- Save your custom scene as a preset
Tip. You're not making a movie. You're staging one panel. Place what the camera will see — skip what it won't.
Next: Create Backgrounds for Your Art →
Tutorial 4 · The finish line
A background you can use tonight.
Difficult
Comic, illustration & cartoon-style backgrounds that fit your art
This is the one that turns ABLUR into your hand. Pick the angle. Pull the lines. Match your style. Export and drop it straight into your comic.
- Pick a camera angle that fits your panel
- Pull line art that matches your style
- Export as PNG or PSD
- Drop into Clip Studio Paint, Procreate, or your tool of choice
You're done. The background you just made is ready to drop into your next comic panel. That's the whole loop — and you got there in four tutorials.
Now you know the basics
