Introduction to 3D Design and Modeling with Blender

Start by getting to know Luis Arizaga’s work and influences, going from 2D, to 3D, comics, the video game industry, or even toy design.

Luis gives you a brief introduction to Blender, showing you how to install it, along with some interesting resources such as add-ons, models, and production materials. Set up the interface, some visor parameters, and start to work in the 3D space to configure your scene.

Learn how to create, manipulate, and edit objects, to then start exploring different modeling techniques. Create a model, starting from the base with a blocking while taking into account and prioritizing the character’s silhouette.

Then, explore the lighting system in Blender, create a basic lighting set, and work on the materials for your scene. Luis shows you how the nodes system works and teaches you the rendering process.

Apply all you’ve learned to your final project, create a model of your character, and present it with a 3D render.
