Retro Robot: 3D Game Art from Concept to Render

🚀 Retro Robot: 3D Game Art from Concept to Render 🤖

Course Headline:

Using Blender 2.9 and Substance Painter to Bring Your Retro Sci-Fi Robot to Life!

Embark on a Creative Journey 🎨

When it comes to most 3D art, it all begins with a piece of concept art. Something you drew up yourself, a piece of art you found online, or perhaps one given to you at work. This is where every great project starts – a vision made visible. In this project-based course, we'll be starting with a simple shaded drawing of a retro sci-fi themed robot as our guiding vision.

Your 3D Art Adventure Awaits! 🔍

With the concept art at hand, you'll begin interpreting and translating it to 3D as faithfully as you can. Then, add additional details to fill in the gaps left by the concept art. Choose your own materials and colors, decals, and weathering effects to bring the 3D art closer to life. Hook it up to a simple rig and give it a dramatic pose, then top it off with equally dynamic lighting. Finally, render out the final image – a masterpiece born from your creativity and technical prowess.

By the end of this project, you'll have brought a flat 2D concept art to life as a fully realized 3D artwork. This process not only enhances your skills but also your ability to communicate visual ideas effectively in a 3D space.

Step-by-Step Guidance:

In order to help you accomplish all of that, this course will guide you through the following major steps:

1. Modeling a Hard Surface Character from Concept Art - Learn to interpret flat images into 3D forms.
2. Converting Low Poly Mesh to High Poly Mesh - Discover how to add detail and complexity to your models.
3. Baking High Poly Mesh to Low Poly Mesh - Master the process of preparing your high poly details for real-time applications.
4. Photoreal Texturing of Hard Surface Character - Dive deep into Substance Painter to create textures that give life to your 3D models.
5. Rigging and Setting Up a Dynamic Character Pose - Animate your character for a lifelike presentation.
6. Cinematic Photo Studio Lighting and Rendering - Perfect the art of lighting and rendering to create images that pop off the screen.
