Whether you're a beginner trying to get a grasp of the basics or a seasoned user aiming to refine your pipeline and push your limits, this book breaks Blender down into something manageable, practical, and creatively empowering. Boyd C. Gibson takes you behind the screen into the actual workflows used by experienced digital artists. Through real-world examples, clear explanations, and step-by-step projects, you'll learn not just what buttons to push-but why they matter. From sculpting detailed characters and modeling environments, to building procedural assets and setting up camera-ready renders, this guide walks you through the process in a way that's logical, effective, and human.

Inside you'll discover: How to set up Blender for peak productivity-without getting lost in menus A deep understanding of modeling, from foundational mesh techniques to non-destructive workflows using modifiers and geometry nodes Practical sculpting advice, including how to manage topology, layer detail, and use sculpting tools with precision Strategies for UV mapping, texture painting, and material creation using physically accurate principles Full walkthroughs of lighting setups, camera framing, and animation principles to bring your scenes to life How to export your projects for game engines, 3D printing, or film pipelines without headaches Case studies like procedural asset creation and storyboard animatics to bridge 2D and 3D storytelling Guidance on optimizing performance, managing large files, and avoiding common pitfalls What sets this book apart is its ability to meet you where you are-while guiding you toward the skills and mindset you need to thrive in any digital art context. It's clear, focused, and never bloated with unnecessary jargon.
