Description

This course is about teaching you more complex techniques to begin opening up your creative side. We'll be teaching subsurface modeling & extrusion tools. You'll also be learning about tolerances in your design workflow by building a toy car. We'll even go over splicing objects so you can cut up larger designs for small 3D printers.By introducing you to longer workflows and how to use more of Blender's awesome modifiers you'll be expanding your brain to design with precision in no time!In these courses, you will learn more complex design techniques while making assembled cars, box animals, & slice large designs into multiple parts.Box Animals with Subsurface ModelingLet's learn more complex techniques to begin opening up your creative side. We'll be teaching subsurface modeling & extrusion tools to create cute, yet simple box-animal toys.What You'll Learn: This course kicks off our Beginner 103 Series by introducing you to longer workflows and how to use more of Blender's awesome modifiers you'll be expanding your brain to design with precision in no time!Goal: This course is about teaching you more complex techniques to begin opening up your creative side.
