Blender 4.x Beginners Course

Explore Blender's edit mode extrusion, using E to extrude vertices, edges, and faces. Move into alt E options like extrude along normals, then use F to fill gaps.

Master Blender 4.x's inset tool in edit mode to insert faces and adjust depth with control key. Explore offset, boundary, and individual modes to create doors and extruded faces.

Master the bevel tool in Blender to create rounded edges on vertices, edges, and faces, adjusting distance with the scroll wheel and enabling smooth shading for realistic lighting.

Use loop cuts in edit mode to add extra geometry with Ctrl R, preview the edge loop, and position or cancel. Scroll wheel or numpad sets multiple cuts, then bevel.

Master Blender's knife tool to add detailed cuts on models, activate with K, snap with Shift, confirm with Enter, and explore cut-through (C) and angle constraints (A).

Explore Blender's poly build tool for retopology, building low poly versions from high density meshes by hovering over edges, extruding, snapping, and auto-merging vertex points.

Learn to use the spin and spin duplicates tools in Blender to rotate faces around an axis with the 3D cursor, arc and steps, adjust angle, and optionally duplicate spins.

Explore randomized and smoothing tools in Blender to quickly add detail by subdividing a plane, then using randomize with seed and amount and smoothing to refine edges.

Explore the edge slide tool in Blender to slide and align edges with double g (g, g). Learn vertex slide for moving vertices and working with edge loops.

In blender 4.x, master the shrink and flatten tool to move faces along their normals for thickness, compare with scaling that excludes the z axis, and explore push and pull.

Master the shear tool for 90-degree moldings and precise extrusions along local axes, and use the two sphere tool to adjust topology for eyes, nose, and mouth.

Learn to use the Represion and knife tools to cut and separate geometry at the cursor, creating an open box, then apply a solidify modifier to add thickness.

Apply non-destructive Blender modifiers such as bevel, array, boolean, mirror, subdivision, and solidify to speed modeling, adjust shapes, and keep edits flexible.

Explore blender render settings, choosing eevee or cycles, enabling gpu acceleration, adjusting samples, setting output resolution, and building a scene with cameras and diverse lights for photorealistic rendering.

Learn to create and apply materials in Blender, manage multiple material slots, copy or link materials across objects, and explore the shader editor and world hdri lighting.

Create a blender wallpaper by extruding shapes, stacking cylindrical disks, and applying a solidify modifier, then set up lights, a camera, and render settings.

Model a stylized isometric room in Blender from scratch, using solidify, bevel, and subdivision modifiers, along with a window, door, and tiled floor to form the base shape.

Model a computer desk in a stylized room using Blender 4.x features like extrude, bevel, loop cuts, and modifiers such as array and mirror.

Learn efficient blender modeling by using quick favorites for modifiers, set origins, and build a wall clock scene with leaves, pots, and a particle system.

Create a computer desk scene by modeling a monitor with stand, keyboard, mouse, and gaming console in Blender, using extrude, inset, bevels, loop cuts, modifiers, and parenting.

Model two chairs in Blender 4.x, exploring gaming and office chair styles using mirror, solidify, subdiv, and array modifiers, plus iterative copies and proportional editing for refinement.

Model a desk scene in Blender 4.x by building a tablet, game controller, and plants, using extrusion, bevel modifiers, and an array modifier, with precise positioning and x-ray mode.

Organize a Blender scene by creating and naming collections, renaming with F2, parenting for hierarchy, moving into room, furniture, and books collections, and using unselectable filters to hide them.

Learn to enhance a Blender scene by configuring Cycles render engine and lights, then create, apply, and manage multiple materials and textures across objects with precise selection and assignment.

Learn to set up a camera, adjust 1080x1080 resolution, and render test images in Blender, then create a moving camera animation with follow path and track constraints.
