This book is for anyone who wants to learn Blender by creating concrete projects.
What You Will LearnUnderstand the basics of 3D and how to navigate your way around the Blender interfaceCreate a 3D robot toy model from start to finish using the basic modeling tools of BlenderMake a full alien character using the skin mesh modifier and the sculpting tools with an artistic approachUse re-topology techniques to create a clean 3D version of the previously sculpted alienModel a full haunted house and its environment using more advanced modeling tools and techniques such as the Array Modifier, Instance duplication, or CurvesDiscover the power of the texture paint tool in order to add color to the haunted houseGet to know the Cycles render engine by creating different materials for the house and the environmentIn DetailBlender is a powerful tool, stable, with an integral workflow that will allow you to understand your learning of 3D creation with serenity. Today, it is considered to be one of the most complete 3D packages on the market and it is free and open source! It is very efficient for many types of productions, such as 3D animated or live action films, architecture, research, or even game creation with its integrated game engine and its use of the Python language. Moreover, Blender has an active community that contributes to expanding its functionalities. Today, it is used in many professional products and by many companies.
Through this book, you will create many types of concert projects using a step-by-step approach.

Pierre-Armand Nicq started learning how to generate 3D images with Blender 2.4x at a young age. He is really passionate about all types of multimedia creation and uses Blender for projects such as 3D images/animations and games. He codes in different programming languages, such as C/C++, C#, AS3, JavaScript, and PHP, to create games and other kinds of programs. Pierre-Armand loves to share his knowledge. This is why he founded a French YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/ToutApprendre). It has more than 9,500 subscribers and 200 tutorials about 3D and programming. Currently, he is in his fifth and last year of school at IIM (Paris/La Defense). During his free time, he loves to play jazz music, participate in GameJams, and perform card tricks.
