Blender is a brilliant open source 3D building software. In this Blender tutorial, you'll learn how to create a low poly character in Blender with the help of a professional digital artist. Actually, you won't be building just one character, you'll model a few of them. When you finish the whole course on how to make a character in Blender, you'll have five fully realized 3D human models to add to your portfolio or use in a project.
This Blender human modeling tutorial doesn't require any prior Blender experience. Your tutor Kevin Liao will guide you through Blender basics, how to make characters in Blender, learning to navigate and master the shortcuts, tools, and setup of the Blender 3D program. These are all crucial elements of 3D modeling when you're trying to learn Blender.
Next, you will go into object manipulation, 3d rendering and this is where the Blender character modeling truly starts. You will learn to use different tools to create objects and shapes, then tie them together to create characters, clothing, and accessories, all in 3D!

In this Blender tutorial, we focus on how to make a character in Blender. Starting your 3D modeling journey with a low poly character has many advantages. Creating low poly human models instead of high poly ones takes up a lot less time by removing all extra steps and focusing on the essentials. It also allows you to improve your approach to form and proportions since any inadequacies are way more clear. Furthermore, it's easier to manage your work and stay more organized with low poly characters, especially when someone is helping you!
