Description

Get up to speed on the techniques and pipelines used to create high quality, AAA ready game assets!

This online course will teach you how to use Blender and 3D-Coat to create a PRACTICAL REAL WORLD project for your game asset ideas!

  • Do you want to take your 3d modeling, texturing, and rendering, skills to the next level?
  • Have you spent time and energy Googling Blender tutorials online, only to find out that it never covers exactly what you need?
  • Do your 3D renders look plain and boring, and you want to know how to take your 3D models to the next level?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you're in the right place! 

I know it can be frustrating watching other people post gorgeous looking renders and game assets online, while always wondering how they did it. You can spend hours or even days trying to find the right tutorial online to recreate a 3D asset. Even then they don't always cover the complete pipeline from start to finish.

That's why we created this course - to teach people just like you how to easily get started with Blender.

This course has been specifically designed with you in mind and we have developed a system to allow you to learn just what you need to know, only when you need it. 

Have fun while learning! Learn by actually doing!

After enrolling in this course, you'll be taken through a complete intermediate project that will show you how to recreate a 3D game asset from start to finish. Follow along and practice while learning!

Downloadable project files make it easy to follow along and practice.

The best part about a course like this is that you won't waste time learning tools and functions inside of Blender that you will never use. Most courses will tell you about every little part of the program, which is daunting to most people. 

Intermediate Game Asset Creation - 3D Modeling in Blender will show you the necessary tools as you apply them.

This course will cover every aspect of:

  1. Blender and 3D-Coat's Interface and How to Navigate It
  2. 3D Modeling a Complicated 3D Game Asset
  3. UV Unwrapping and Understanding How UVs Work
  4. How Normals Work and How to Bake Textures Into Your Model
  5. Texturing Your Game Asset with Smart Materials
  6. Exporting Your Model to Unity, the Number One Game Engine
  7. and so much more!

Whether you want to create game assets just for fun, or you work in a production studio and need this information done right this instant, this course is for you. We will guide you every step of the way and are here to make sure you succeed in your ventures. We are always available to answer any messages, discussions, questions, or feedback that you have.

Amazing, the best part is that it actually made me think instead of just following the process how I normally would. I got some really good tips even though the videos are nearly 5 years old.

After finishing the first course I can easily and confidently recommend this course to anybody wanting to know the exact and correct process for creating game assets from start to finish. The instructor is well informed and never overwhelms you with information that is complicated or unnecessary.

This course was more detailed than the instructors Game Asset Crash Course it had a steady flow and even with recent updates to the software it was not difficult to apply the techniques. Some steps could be improved on but over all this is a course I would recommend

Good course. Videos where quite short and usually apart from a couple of exceptions well edited which I really like as no video felt like it was dragging. The instructor explains everything well and it's quite easy to follow. Would recommend this course to anyone with basic blender experience and anyone who wants to go on to create game assets. Only negative is the use of 3D coat. I would have preferred Substance Painter as this seems to be the industry standard or at least a guide on basic texturing in blender. Overall really good course plus the best sword making tutorial i have managed to find.

Just to good different modelling approaches really good. Just drop 3d coat and xnormal, use blender only show the real power of blender...

Its great, because its simple and straight forward. Workflow is super important to me and unlike many other courses, that workflow was easy to see and will serve as a guide until I have mastered it. Glad I bought this course.

Somewhat faster paced than the introductory course, but still a great step-by-step tutorial series for those that want to fully understand game asset development (as an entire process).

I really appreciate how the instructor breaks the sections down into bite sized area's. He starts at the simplistic and moves us along at a good pace to learn the different skills. Great course.

This is a very good introductory course to Blender, xNormal and 3D Coat. I wouldn't have called it 'Intermediate' as the subject is not challenging in any aspect but I have learnt some things about Blender that I didn't know and 3D Coat Smart Materials are well explained and used. It has been an interesting course for me.

Thanks for a great course, Timothy! Really good information on how the whole workflow fits together, doing each of the earlier stages with later stages in mind. I specifically got some important clarification on modeling techniques and the optimization process.

I am really impressed with this tutorial. The instructor is not only telling us what to do, but why we should do it and in what order. This is usually absent in many tutorials I have seen. Many of the times I have used Blender it involved much trial and error as it seemed that many of functions were a little arbitrary. Try this and it works this time but next time it might not. This instructor is explaining why it works and what might cause it to work differently dispelling much of the confusion I have had using this software. I look forward to finishing this and applying it to several projects I am currently working on and going back and reworking some of the ones I have done in the past.

The instructor made the actual process from start to finish very easy, he spoke clearly, and did not shy away from the topic for a second. My only advice is, to make quizzes to keep the viewer engaged. Good Course!

I am just starting the course and I just want to say he's awesome. I don't know how he's gonna go until the end So I will just leave it as a four star. He explains the concepts very nicely and clearly.
