Chapter 7: Modeling an Alien Cartoon Character
In this chapter, we will 3D-model an alien cartoon character from scratch! First, we will create our own reference images of our character, which will make the modeling process a lot easier. Then, we will import these reference images into Blender and start modeling our character, using the front and side views of our character. You can also download reference images from the internet if don't feel like drawing your own.
It all depends on whether you want to create your own original character or if you are modeling a known character from a video game or movie. Let's get started!
The main topics we'll cover in this chapter are as follows:
- Creating front and side reference images of your character
- Setting up your Blender project using the reference images you created
- Modeling the character in Blender
