In this course, you’ll learn all about how to create mini tanks for a mobile game! We’ll cover all of the modeling and texturing, including tips and tricks like painting with layers in Blender 2.8, how to work with Photoshop files, combining procedural textures with hand painted textures in one image, and much more! Plus, Jonathan Gonzales is recording a course all about creating the actual game in Unity, so if you follow along you can take this project all the way from default cube to showing up in the app store.
