What Will I Learn?

• Use 3D modeling in Blender to create a practical, real world game asset that you can use in your own creations or expand upon into other game assets.
• Make awesome, AAA game assets by utilizing just the right tools and techniques of the software that you need.
• Save time and money by creating your own 3D models, quickly and efficiently.
• Learn 3D modeling, texturing, rendering, and exporting with Blender, the world's premiere 3D application for creating amazing game assets.

Requirements

• Students who want to follow along with the project should have the newest version of Blender installed. We will be using the most current version at the time of this recording, but the tools and techniques are generally the same as other versions.
• A basic understanding of the software Blender, xNormal, and 3D Coat is needed for this intermediate course as we will discuss more advanced modeling tools and object management systems.
• If you are new to Blender or 3D modeling, you may want to check out "Game Asset Crash Course - 3D Modeling in Blender and 3D-Coat" before watching this course.
• The software versions we are using are Blender 2.78c, xNormal 3.19.3, and 3D-Coat 4.7.4

Target audience

• This course is geared to anyone who wants to learn how to use Blender as well as intermediate 3D modeling, texturing, rendering, and exporting techniques.
• A prior knowledge of Blender is recommended, though students who are beginners and follow along carefully can learn Blender rather quickly as we cover the different aspects of the using the software.
• Anyone who is looking for a complete Blender course that explains every tool and facet of the application should not take this course. This is a course that provides a practical project for 3D artists in real world settings, so not every tool and function will be explained.
