Hydridic Blender is a Blender addon that's designed to make it easier to create illustrations of molecules and crystals. It was inspired by the wonderful Atomic Blender addon that comes stock with most Blender installations. Hydridic Blender tries to build on this idea, to give users a higher level of control over their 3D models.
The logo here are the letters "H" and "B", dressed up to resemble the half up/down arrows commonly used to represent electrons in orbital diagrams , superimposed on an orange (for Blender :D ) Frost Circle.
Currently, the addon supports the import of any chemical format supported by the Atomic Simulation Environment (XYZ, VASP, PDB, etc.) of both periodic and non-periodic varieties. Materials are automatically generated, and bonding is automatically calculated via ASE.
