Description
Cartoon-style planets can be approached a number of ways—I am familiar with a few of them.Using textures only is very limiting, so in this course, I’ll teach you my most recent breakthrough in miniature planet modeling in Blender using custom-made brushes. Blender has come a long way, and a recent feature—VDM brushes—will allow us to achieve the results shown in the course. -What you’ll learn:•Making a perfect sphere with clean topology•Sculpting planets and other topographic features•Texturing desert sand•Modeling and texturing low-poly vegetation•Creating realistic water•Lighting•Camera setup-Who is this course for?•Beginner to Intermediate learners•Learners who know how to navigate the UI, install add-ons, etc•Learners who want to improve their lighting skills•Learners who like cartoon-style renders•Learners that want to learn the very basics of sculpting with VDM brushes-What is expected of learners?To spend more time than the course lighting & modeling to achieve the greatest, prettiest results possible, and to get creative and use any other addons or means to build on what was taught in this course.Learners are also encouraged to take what they have learned, and apply it elsewhere or on another planet—one that is not comprised solely of desert.
