3D modelling and rendering take more than just modelling a form and adding materials to it. The Essentials Of Blender For Designers focuses on the professional Industrial Design use and everything which is useful tomorrow at a your desk. The tools, but also the workflows and techniques (speed, organization, learning from experience, etc…) so that not only we can create models at competitive speed, but we also learn the software quickly while keeping our head clear.
Progressively learn from basic forms to complex products.
My vision on learning a creative skill is that you should be familiar with the technical side of it, know your tool, so you can decide how you want to break the rules!
Get to know Blender’s paradigm. Locate and master the tools which are constantly used in the industry in order to freely create your ideas and quickly develop details.
Learn about the different 3D approaches and the benefit of polygonal 3D.
Get familiar with the basics actions.
Progressively learn with basic forms and evolve toward more complex products.
Modelling process, topology & the ability to finish your work on time.
A tool as complete as Blender can provide everything you need to shape your ideas, develop them and share them, as long as you understand its system.
Set up the software, so it becomes easier to use, focusing on the essential tools for ID and efficiency.
Develop a process that allows you to test forms and options rapidly and how it enhances your own creativity.
Implement the typical details of the industry (surface treatments, part lines, buttons, embossed logos, fillets, plugs, patterns, etc…).
