Master Blender

Blender is a free and open-source graphics application for creating animations, art, visual effects, 3D models, and interactive 3D applications. In this learning path, you can build a basic knowledge of Blender for 3D modeling, texturing, rigging and skinning, sculpting, animating, rendering, compositing, and more.

• Explore the fundamental features of Blender.
• Practice your skills through project-based courses.
• Develop workflows for rendering and completing your work.

• Course 1: Blender 2.83 Essential Training
• Get up and running with Blender 2.83, the powerful open-source tool for 2D and 3D modeling, animation, compositing, and post-production.
• Course 2: Blender: Hard Surface Modeling
• Interested in using Blender to model objects like vehicles or machinery? Learn how to create realistic hard surfaces such as the skid-steer loader featured in this course.
