The complete guide to learn 3D using Blender from basic to advanced level
If you want to learn 3D from zero, meaning no prior experience needed at all. Then you’ve come to the right place. This course will teach you the fundamentals of 3D skills using Blender 2.8 or above. The curriculum in this course is carefully designed so that students can learn gradually from the easiest lesson to the more advanced lessons, seamlessly. After completing this course you should be able to model a construction robot like in the course cover image, add materials to it, create lights, and then render it using the EEVEE rendering engine.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
You are going to learn so many things in this course. They are just too many to cover in this short introduction texts. But just for a quick summary. The course is divided into 4 parts.
Part 1: Blender essentials
Blender’s UI
Viewport navigation
Basic object operations
Basic transformation
Interaction modes
Basic mesh editing
Etc
Part 2: Look development
Viewport shading modes
Rendering engines
Creating and using materials
Basic CG concepts
Using camera object
Surface smooth shading
Screen space reflection inside EEVEE
Etc
Part 3: 3D modeling
Advanced transformation
Pivot point
Selection techniques
Inset, Extrude and Bevel
Knife and Bisect tools
Adding loop cuts
Patching holes
The basics of modifiers
Common 3D modeling mistakes
Normal direction
Manifold geometry
Point-to-point modeling techniques
Etc
Part 4: Construction robot project
Volume sketching
The Basics of grease pencil
Special movement operations
The basics of the curve objects
Basic rigging with FK (forward kinematics)
Create global illumination in EEVEE
Etc
HANDS-ON PROJECTS
There are many hands-on projects in course. Such as:
Custom monkey head model using basic mesh editing
Adding materials to the custom monkey head model
Modeling a kindergarten chair
Create vases using spin and screw methods
Create a roman column
Model a toy train by leveraging the vertex snapping feature
Model a coffee table
Create a robot in the final project section. Covers 3D modeling, material, lighting and rendering with EEVEE

Widhi is the CEO of Expose Academy and the founder of several other creative-based companies. He has a bachelor's degree in information technology and a master's degree in business management and information system. Besides doing business he is also an academic lecturer in the computer graphics field.With more than 20 years of experience in the CG industry, he finished hundreds...
Salam aleykum brothers and sisters.
First of all, I have to say that I knew Widhi already from his 3DS max course and the reason why I chose his Blender course is because his 3DS Max course was so good.
Widhi is explaining everything in detail with good examples and everything is straight to the point. This is the best course on Udemy to strt with Blender, Allah be my witness!
Great pace, good subject matter, knowledgeable instructor
The course is very detailed and the instructor obviously knows the software very well. Despite having taken another Blender training before, I still had a lot to learn from the course.
My only complaint is based on the places where he sped up (or didn't show) some processes because "there's no new technique to explain" or "it would be too boring for you to watch" (cringe!) It's a beginners' tutorial so people actually want to see every detail. Despite this, the course is still 5-star worthy and well recommended.
Very good teacher who prepared in advance its lessons. Talk speed is adapted and makes the courses easy to understand.
Professor is very knowledgeable and provided the necessary tools to be able to start efficiently 3D creation.
I highly recommend his lessons to anybody who wish to learn blender.
Do ALL the courses, including those related to blender 2.79, even if your version is higher. Not all the commands are same in 2.79 and more recent versions, but what his is explaining help a lot to understand various, but necessary, concepts.
Be also aware that it will takes you more than 26.5 hours to watch all. For me, it took around one month to watch and practice them, but it was worthy. I am not yet a hero; nevertheless, I can do intermediate 3D which are acceptable.
A great thank you to him.
Get this course if you are a complete beginner with this software. I wasn't a total beginner at using Blender when I started this course and it didn't teach me anything new, because all of this is on youtube for free. Technically speaking IF you buy a book about Blender, then this course contains about 2/10 of it. However, it helped me organize all those bits of knowledge into one solid beginner user experience, it is a well-organized course. Considering that I got it with a huge discount, cheaper than any BOOK you can get about Blender - it made sense to me to pay and give 5 stars to someone organizing youtube videos for me. Thank you!
Straight foward with all the basics, one can always refer back to this whenever there is doubt, great buy !
I learned a lot from the lesson lectures
I liked very much the few (but very nice) "try on the field" for the student.
However i saw some 2.79 good material not upgraded to 2.8, i.e. the mechanical fish. When all the course is upgrade to 2.8 i give 5 stars :)
Great course, i've learned a lot about Blender! Thanks to you Whidi!
So far, I'm enjoying the pace of the class. Each lesson is short enough to keep my attention focused. I'm hoping not to get lost as I go along but so far .... VERY GOOD!!
