CGCookie – POTHEAD Create a Hard Surface Character in Blender Complete Course Download FREE!
Who doesn’t love an underdog? Rusty and bruised, this little guy proves there is fire in him yet.
Pothead was first created in 2016 the great Tim von Rueden (@vonnart) as one of the original CG Cookie characters.
Today, our Blender trainer Jonathan Lampel breathes fresh life into Pothead and makes him shine… all in Blender.
Pothead is your guide for creating characters in Blender, step by step
In 40 lessons you’ll go from the default Blender scene…to a complete character that’s ready for a rusty adventure.
Chapter 1: Hard Surface and Subdivision Surface Modeling
Because Pothead is made up of several hard surface pieces, we’ll get the opportunity to talk about booleans, bevels, and creases in chapter 1.
But, because he’s also round and smooth, you’ll learn how to incorporate those techniques into a subdivision surface modeling workflow.
Chapter 2: UV Unwrapping and Texturing Preparation
The second chapter focuses on UV unwrapping and preparing Pothead for texturing.
It’s no small task, but with the right techniques the process becomes very straightforward.
Hand painted textures are perfect for matching the concept’s rusty metal appearance in a 3d shader, so we will paint our own in Blender, but we’ll also enlist the help of some procedural textures for the smaller, sharper, and more random details.
