Taking my 3d modeling to the next level

After graduating college, I wanted to branch out as a designer and continue to learn new mediums. I had seen some videos online of 3D art that people made using Blender and was inspired.

Learning Blender

2023-present

  • Modeling

  • Texturing

  • Lighting

Role:

Going in blind

Having never been exposed to using Blender, I wanted to see what I could learn on my own just from spending time experimenting.

Okay… let’s find a tutorial

I realized Blender was far too big a program to learn entirely from scratch. I needed to set aside my preconceived notions and learn the basics from people more experienced than me. So I began by recreating online tutorials .

Finding and refining my style

I’m continuing to grow as a 3D artist and delve into this amazing program.
