Blender 3D Incredible Machines. Design, model, and texture complex mechanical objects in Blender

Blender 3D is one of the top pieces of 3D animation software. Machine modeling is an essential aspect of war games, space games, racing games, and animated action films.

• This book will cover all the topics you need to create professional models and renders.
• This book will help you develop a comprehensive skill set that covers the key aspects of mechanical modeling.

As the Blender software grows more powerful and popular, there is a demand to take your modeling skills to the next level. Through this book, you will create many types of projects, including a pistol, spacecraft, robot, and a racer.

• We start by making a Sci-fi pistol, creating its basic shape and adding details to it.

• After this, we’ll create the basic shapes for the robot and combine the meshes to create unified objects.
• We'll assign materials and explore the various options for freestyle rendering.

Moving on, you’ll discover modeling techniques for larger objects such as a space craft and take a look at how different techniques are required for freestyle modeling. We’ll discuss techniques to build low-poly models, create a low-poly racer, and explain how they differ from the high poly models we created previously.

• By the end of this book, you will have mastered a workflow that you will be able to apply to your own creations.
