3D Modeling and Real-Time Rendering in Eevee

The first chapter of the book took a quick overview of the Blender user interface and some of the options available to manipulate windows and 3D visualization. From this point, we can start to create 3D content by using the 3D capabilities of Blender to create a 3D model and make a real-time render with Eevee.

Here is a list of what you will learn in this chapter:

How to create 3D models in Blender
Change the work mode to Edit
Manage components from a polygon, such as vertices, edges, and faces
Use extrusions to make models from 3D primitives
Render a scene using Eevee and view real-time shadows

Key benefits

Find your way round the new user interface and tools of Blender 2.8

Create materials, apply textures and render scenes

Use the new cutting-edge real-time render EEVEE in your projects

Description

Blender is open source 3D creation software. With a long history and an enthusiastic community of users, it is the ideal choice for almost any kind of work with 3D modeling or animation. However, for new users, its power and ?exibillity can sometimes be daunting, and that’s when you need this book! The book starts by showing you round the all-new Blender 2.8 user interface. You'll look at the most commonly-used options and tools, such as navigating in 3D and selecting objects. You will then use and manipulate one of the most important windows of the interface, the 3D View. You'll learn how to use essential tools for working with 3D modeling. To give your models the feel of real-world objects, you'll learn how to create materials and set up surfaces. You'll see how to use Physically-Based Rendering (PBR), which allows you to craft realistic surfaces such as wood, stone, and metal. You will also work with Eevee, a new real-time render engine in Blender. You will see how to add motion to objects, making use of Blender's impressive 3D animation features. Finally, you'll learn how to create scenes and organize them for rendering, and later add titles and effects using built-in Blender tools. By the end of the book, you will be able to use Blender 2.8 new UI, Create 3D Models with textures, Animations, and Render them in real-time using Eevee.

If you're looking for an up-to-date intro to Blender, with an eye toward the fast-changing interface of version 2.8, this books is a great choice. Of course, here in January 2019, it's your only choice too. ;-) It presents a competent survey of Blender tools and techniques, with consistent mention of new conventions from 2.8. I'm requiring it in my Blender classes this year and look forward to future revisions.

Not overly impressed. Just went through chapter one and the mouse button stuff is not correct as other's have noted. Also, I could not figure out how to bring up stuff he was referencing, like the shade and lighting bits. I am a total newb and figured this would at least get me comfortable with the basics. Unfortunately, I am a bit more confused than I started. I won't be continuing with this book. In fact, it will be going bye bye as I try a different book and some youtube videos.

This book sounds just like an opportunism. The book was release before the Beta version from the Blender 2.8, then the mouse buttons references are inverted.The book is not focused in the Blende 2.8 features, basic or not. Lot of stuff is ignored. Like an example, the object collections feature are not even mentioned in the book.

the gui is not the correct one for my 2.8 software. They tried to pass off another for the newer version. the book is a fraud !
