Blender Creature Modeling: A Comprehensive Journey from 2D Art to 3D Mastery

In the world of digital artistry, the transformation of a two-dimensional concept into a vivid three-dimensional model stands as one of the most challenging and rewarding processes. Especially when it involves creature modeling, tests the mettle of even the most seasoned artists. Enter the realm of Blender creature modeling, where Kent Trammell, an expert in the field, serves as your navigator.

In this series Sander will take you through three steps to create and complete a finished polished bird concept. He starts off with thumb-nailing and initial thinking, then takes you through creating different color palettes and scenarios for the selected thumbnail. To finish it off, a final polish pass is done to emphasize the details and bring out the full composition of the design.The resources in this course include the following: The Final .PSD, the Sketches .PSD, and the Thumbnails .PSD. Citizen members can also download each part’s HD video. And after following this steps, you can create a creature all your own, and here is the official scientific description from Sander himself on the Iraus Saltum Avium.

Adding movement to still images is a great way of drawing attention to some feature and add drama to a lifeless photo. Using motion and timing you can change the mood in the viewer. From slow and stately, to rapid and dynamic there are a multitude of methods to apply. For example, you can focus the viewer’s attention on a key detail by starting in a close-up then zooming out to reveal the context with the rest of the image. In this series we will be demonstrating a couple of techniques for resizing images. We will find ways to overcome the Blender VSE’s weakness in this area. We will discover how to harness the OpenGL image drawing for blazing speed and how to use an add-on that dramatically expands the interactive ability of the VSE. Some of these lessons make use of the VSE Transform Tools add-on, which can be downloaded from here: VSE Transform Tools

In this course we'll be looking at an experimental tool by Unity to create sprite sheets based on a series of images. You'll learn how to export out a explosion and fireball simulation from Blender into a series of images that we can then convert into a sprite sheet in Unity. This sprite sheet can then be used with the Shuriken particle system to create a realistic looking effect fairly quickly. We'll also look at how we can use realistic video references in the same manner, for this course we'll use a campfire video reference.

Procedural computer graphics are booming right now. For the artists that have spent years painstakingly placing every vertex, laying out every UV, painting every pixel by hand, sculpting each and every detail...procedural creation is a reinvigorating endeavor.
