Blender 3D Incredible Models A comprehensive guide to hard–surface modeling, procedural texturing, and rendering

Key Features
Explore Blender's wide array of 3D modeling tools and features with key images printed in color
Learn techniques for texturing, rendering, and rigging
Employ these lessons to create increasingly complex hard-surface models
Book Description
Blender is a massively popular and powerful 3D program, with versatile modeling abilities that make it a great way to enter the 3D modelling world.
Blender 3D Incredible Models is an extensive guide for those new to hard-surface modeling with Blender, helping you understand the complete range of tools and features it offers and how to employ those efficiently to create realistic models. You'll be led through progressively more challenging modeling projects- from an assault rifle and an army tank to a sci-fi spaceship model-giving you a glimpse of all the skills you'd need in Blender's vast ecosystem of features and functionality, ranging from textures, rendering, and UV mapping to lighting, rigging, and beyond. Each engaging project builds upon the last until you're equipped with everything you need to tackle your own modeling challenges, whatever they may be.
By the end of this Blender book, you won't just know how to create the models covered here, but you'll be able to turn your own concepts and references into 3D Blender models too!
