Description

I’m super excited to share some amazing news about the new course update. This time, the course is divided into six incredible sections to take you from basics all the way to the final project.

New Feature: This time, we’ll learn Blender in a fresh way using the latest version and its newest features, which make our work much easier. I’ll guide you from beginner to professional level by the end of the project.

Section One – Simple Fence Kit (Wooden Fence, Ropes, Stone Wall)

Hello friends!

Welcome to Section One. We start with a simple but essential pack: wooden fences, ropes, and a stone wall.

Our goal is to learn step by step how to model these elements and create a realistic scene. Even if you’re a beginner, I’ll guide you from start to finish.

• Learn how to build models from scratch

• Use latest Blender tools to speed up and simplify work

• Prepare all details of these elements for use in future projects

Section Two – Viking Pack (Wooden Bridge, Crate, Skewer Holder, Fire & Food)

In Section Two, we dive into the Viking Pack: wooden bridge, crate, and a skewer holder for fire and barbecue.

This section will improve your skills in:

• Modeling small and practical props

• Designing elements for living or camping scenes

• Adding realistic details and materials

Section Three – Plant Bush with Fruits & Leaves

Now it’s time to design a beautiful plant bush with fruits and leaves.

You’ll learn:

• Natural plant modeling

• Creating realistic fruits and leaves

• Preparing the bush for use in various scenes

Section Four – Stones and Surrounding Plants

In Section Four, we complete the surrounding environment.

• Adding stones and small plants

• Creating a natural and realistic composition

• Practicing basic lighting to highlight details

Section Five – Wooden Table & Chairs

Section Five focuses on designing wooden tables and chairs.

• Learn to model wooden furniture

• Adding realistic details and materials

• Preparing the scene for interaction or animation

Section Six – Stylized House Design

Finally, Section Six: designing a stylized and beautiful house.

• Combining all previous elements into a complete scene

• Learning advanced techniques for building environments

• Preparing the final project for rendering or animation

By the end of these 6 sections, you’ll go from beginner to professional and be able to create realistic and stunning environments.
