This course will teach you how to model a sword and shield, create good UV maps for games and animations, and how to create hand painted, PBR (Physically Based Render) textures in Blender 2.8x.
Each video is designed for you to follow along with me. I explain every step in order for you to learn how to make swords and shields, and also for you to learn more about the workflow for creating models of any kind.
By the end of the course, you will be able to create, unwrap, and texture your own versions of a sword and shield.
