Low Poly Modeling

Learn 3D modeling for games. Master Blender to create Low Poly characters, props, and environments suitable for indie games.

Low Poly is the 3D equivalent of Pixel Art: stylish and accessible. This course teaches Blender 4.0+ from scratch. You will learn box modeling techniques, topology basics, and UV unwrapping. Master creating simple characters, rigging them for movement, and painting textures directly on the model. We cover the full pipeline from the default cube to exporting FBX files into Unity or Unreal. No prior 3D experience needed.
