This course features Coursera Coach!
A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. This advanced course takes your 3D modeling and sculpting skills to the next level, focusing on techniques for game design. Learn how to integrate curves, sculpt intricate details, and master shader creation for enhanced realism. By the end of the course, you’ll be equipped with the skills to create complex 3D models, including characters, structures, and assets for games. You will start by learning how to use curves for detailed elements, like Viking-inspired features, and refine your meshes to bring them to life. Then, dive into the basics of sculpting, turning your artistic visions into mesh models. You'll gain advanced techniques for adding intricate details like shields, chimneys, and stairs, and explore shader creation that adds depth and realism to your work. The course continues with lessons on modeling boats, lattices, and ropes, with a focus on creating realistic textures and using modifiers like the remesh tool. You’ll also experiment with water shaders to simulate natural environments and use particle systems for dynamic scenes. Throughout, you’ll apply your skills in hands-on projects that make each lesson relevant and practical. This course is intended for experienced users who are comfortable with 3D modeling basics and want to advance their skills for game design or animation. A background in 3D software and modeling principles is recommended. The course provides the technical knowledge and artistic techniques required to build complex, game-ready assets.
