IB1: BLENDER for CONCEPT ART

In this course we will go through the process of creating a fully developed scene in blender to then finish it off in photoshop. The priority of this course is how we can use blender to set up our scene but above all it will be about the final image(s). So we will dive into other softwares like 3dcoat, Quixel and Photoshop for this class process as well.  We will work from creating the concept of our scene, to creating a 3d kit to build our scene using the assets and use textures and lighting to explore different moods and scenarios for our renders. Finally, we will be able to take the renders and apply different techniques in photoshop to have finalized images to present.

This course will require basic knowledge of blender, texturing, lighting, sculpting and photoshop. Other softwares and resources are recommended like 3D coat, Quixel suite, 3D assets, etc.
