BlenderMarket – Scifi Crate Design In Blender

Info:

Introduction

This course will focus on the hard-surface modeling workflow in Blender. This is a very important and fundamental tool that every artist should add to their 3D skill set. If you struggle with 3D modeling, the boolean workflow, or just don’t know where to start, hard-surface modeling is a perfect topic to focus on for all skill levels.

What will the course cover?

You will learn proper modeling techniques and master 3D modeling and hard surface workflow in this comprehensive and fun course. As a general topic, the course will cover hard-surface modeling with a fun and practical focus on SciFi design. You’ll also learn about the non-destructive workflow, another big strategy in 3D modeling. Here’s a brief list capturing the main elements of the course:

Hard Surface Modeling

Practical 3D modeling techniques and workflows

Non-Destructive Modeling

Realistic and natural lighting

Correct and appealing composition

Rendering

Materials

Cycles Rendering Engine

SciFi design

Overview

We’ll start by blocking out the basic shape in Blender, discussing some of Blender’s fundamental modeling tools and hotkeys. You’ll understand all aspects of 3D modeling and the hard surface workflow, and will be able to work confidently with booleans, bevels, and fix common modeling issues that most people encounter.

Next, we’ll start learning how to use cutters, booleans, and modifiers to start making the model come to life. After getting most of the model created, we’ll bring in the bevels to achieve accurate lighting on the corners and learn how to fix common issues such as artifacts, vertex overshooting, and modifier issues.

Perhaps the best part of this course is understanding how to fix mesh issues that most people encounter, but don’t know how to properly fix. Bevel modifiers can cause all sorts of issues, such as artifacting and shading issues. It’s actually super easy to fix, but most don’t know how or don’t care enough to do so. This course will not skip out on these problems, and you’ll come out of it a better and more confident 3D artist.

At the end of the course, you’ll learn proper lighting and composition, and will achieve a beautiful final render to share with your friends and art portfolio.
