You’ll begin by exploring the character concept and understanding the design decisions behind appealing stylized characters. Then you’ll model the mushroom character from scratch, learning how to build clean forms that are both expressive and easy to work with.
Next, you’ll add personality using shape keys to create facial expressions before creating fully procedural stylized materials that give the character its unique appearance without relying on external textures.
Once your character looks the way you want, you’ll build a simple rig that allows you to pose your creation with ease. You’ll then explore presentation techniques, artistic style, and posing to create final renders that showcase your character beautifully.
Finally, you’ll apply everything you’ve learned by designing your own original fantasy character, giving you the opportunity to develop your creativity while reinforcing the techniques covered throughout the course.
Whether you’re looking to improve your Blender skills, build your character art portfolio, or simply create fun stylized characters, this course will give you a complete workflow from concept to final presentation.
