Costing the equivalent of thirty thousand US dollars, this computer led to Blender 1.0. Roosendaal invested his savings in a Silicon Graphics workstation. (As an aside: the name refers to a song by a Swiss electronic band, Yello). This early version of Blender was intended to address a perennial frustration among creatives: when a difficult client requires multiple changes to a project, how do you implement those changes painlessly? Thanks to its highly configurable approach, Blender aimed at providing an answer. Originally, Blender was planned as an in-house application for NeoGeo it grew from a series of pre-existing tools, including a ray-tracer built for the Amiga. Roosendaal wrote the first source files titled “Blender” on the 2nd of January, 1994, still considered Blender’s official birthday. Initially based in Roosendaal’s attic, NeoGeo grew rapidly, garnering awards and becoming the biggest company of its type in the Netherlands. Attracted to all things technical and creative, Roosendaal began a degree in Industrial Design, but dropped out in order to start his own 3D animation studio, NeoGeo, in 1989 (the video game console of the same name appeared a year later). You can simply right click on them and save the images to your computer if you want to use them.Blender was created by Ton Roosendaal, a Dutch art director and self-taught software developer. Below are my 3 personal favorite matcaps from 2.79. On that page you’ll find a list of the matcaps in.
Luckily all the 2.79 matcap images are available to download here on GitHub.

Even the new zebra stripe matcaps don’t do nearly as well as the old reflective red matcap when it comes to pointing out even the most minor flaws. I think all the new matcaps fall far short in that regard. Matcaps are sleek to look at but they can also be extremely useful for surface analysis. The good news is that we can easily get the old matcaps into the latest Blender version. Since Blender 2.8 and beyond there is a whole new collection of matcaps, sadly leaving behind some of the tried-and-true matcaps from 2.79.
