Stylized character creation in Blender by Cisco Raya (Creación de personaje estilizado en Blender – Spanish, Eng sub)

This course will teach you how to create stylized characters in Blender. You will start by becoming familiar with Blender’s interface, then learn about digital sculpting, different brushes, and their effects.

Next, you’ll study the fundamental characteristics of cartoon styles and important concepts related to human anatomy, proportions, silhouettes, and contour lines. You will apply this knowledge to create a base for your character using 3D geometric shapes and basic formulas to design the face and bust from different angles.

Once you have completed the shaping and sculpting of your character, you’ll add hair styling, clothing, and ornaments to give it personality and create a story. You’ll learn how to apply light, shadow, and color using texture paint and paint ornaments tribal to decorate the body skin.

Then, you’ll create optimal topology for rigging and use Rigify to create a complete skeleton for the character, including rigging for legs, arms, torso, hands, and head. You’ll also create dynamic poses to give your character movement and expressiveness.

Finally, you’ll learn how to add cameras, lighting, and find the best frames to create a more realistic scene. You’ll also learn how to save and export your renders, and how to create a short video presentation to share online.

The course is divided into 30 sections and more than 38 hours of content. Each video is approximately 10 minutes to keep your attention and recorded at normal speed. By the end of the course, you will be able to create your own stylized characters and have assimilated the entire workflow.

This course is designed for artists, designers, and anyone interested in learning how to create 3D characters. It is suitable for junior artists who want to level up their skills or reinforce techniques for character creation. Senior artists who are interested in transitioning to Blender and learning its workflow, tools, and interface can also benefit from this course.

In this course, you will learn how to create a 3D character entirely in Blender, from start to finish. You’ll study the proportions of the human figure, including silhouettes and contour lines. You’ll also discover how to sculpt, add detail, paint, and perform a clean retopology, which is used in both the video game and animation industries.

Additionally, you’ll learn how to create a skeleton with controls that allow you to give your character body movement and expressiveness. You’ll also learn how to create and move cameras, frame shots, and set up lighting to produce striking renders and prepare a presentation video.

Finally, you’ll have the opportunity to publish your final work on a digital portal in the video game and animation industry, which is prominent worldwide.
