We will be talking about Pivot Points and Normals, and fixing geometry issues. You will have access to all of the Project Files for the course, including the Blender Scene files, the reference images, and the textures allowing you to examine the Blender files each step of the way and follow along at your own pace.įor our project we will create a Dualit toaster using reference images, Blender’s modeling tools, and its modifiers stack. And as we go, I'll explain my thought processes and workflows so you can adopt and adapt these techniques to your own projects.

Blender has no price tag, but you can invest, participate, and help to advance a powerful collaborative tool: Blender is your own 3D software.This course will take you through the entire process of creating a scene in Blender, from the first polygon to the final render. To confirm specific compatibility, the list of supported platforms indicates those regularly tested by the development team.Īs a community-driven project under the GNU General Public License (GPL), the public is empowered to make small and large changes to the code base, which leads to new features, responsive bug fixes, and better usability. Its interface uses OpenGL to provide a consistent experience. Examples from many Blender-based projects are available in the showcase.īlender is cross-platform and runs equally well on Linux, Windows and Macintosh computers. Blender is well suited to individuals and small studios who benefit from its unified pipeline and responsive development process. Advanced users employ Blender’s API for Python scripting to customize the application and write specialized tools often these are included in Blender’s future releases. It supports the entirety of the 3D pipeline-modeling, rigging, animation, simulation, rendering, compositing and motion tracking, and video editing. Blender is a free and open source 3D creation suite.
