3D is widely used in industries such as cinema, architecture, health and others. The 3D model must be rendered before it can be used. The number of rendering engines available today is definitely a difficult choice. Blender is an open source application that can be used to perform 3D rendering. There are two rendering engine options in Blender, namely Eevee and Cycles. The focus of this research is to compare the two rendering engines in Blender based on rendering speed, file size and rendering quality. There are five scene cases that are used as a dataset. As a result, the Eevee rendering engine has faster time than the Cycle engine. For the file size on both rendering engines is not so significant. The quality of rendering on Cycles rendering is better than Eevee. The factors that affect the rendering of 3D model are the number of objects, the number of vertices, the rendering engine, the amount of light used, the intensity level of shadows, materials, and textures.
