Description
So you have heard about Blender, and you want to jump in on this free but powerful program?

Or you already use Blender, but don’t know how to make a character inside it?

Weather you are a complete beginner or a bit more advanced Blender user, you could find something for you in this course.

This is the Absolute Beginners 3D character in Blender course and we will be making this cute guy here concepted by Deema Egorov.

Then we will make the sweater and i will show you few ways of making clothes for your character. After that we will manually retopologize the head of our character, using just the tools that Blender provides by default. Although i will show you much faster and useful addon for automatic retopology – QuadRemesher. We will then detail the head and make the glasses.

Refining the sweater and making the hood will be our next tasks which we will finish with great success. After that we will make UVs of the head and ears and make some texturing work on that too. Then i will show you some hardsurface techniques by making a cleaver weapon. We will also see some character examples from the game i worked on for 3 years from Gameloft, since i work there for 15 years already :).

It will be time to learn basics of hair and fur making in Blender. We will see how to create, adjust and groom our fur. Then it will be time to learn how simple it is to put bones and rig our character so we can animate or pose it. We will pose it and then fix the pose to achieve best final results. Then we will learn how to make transparent background and floor shadows. Lastly we will see how to make a turntable animation to present our characters from all sides. They are 3D characters after all.
