Modeling a Robot Drone character
For those who'd prefer to skip the practical modeling tutorial and go on to Chapter 3, Let's Sculpt an Alien Plant!, the completed Robot Drone model (RobotDrone_Blender_File.blend
) is available to download from the online repository here: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Unreal-Engine-5-Character-Creation-Animation-and-Cinematics/tree/main/Chapter02
In Chapter 1, An Introduction to Blender's 3D Modeling and Sculpting Tools, you learned the theoretical functionality of Blender's modeling tools. Now, you will put all you have learned about 3D modeling into practice!
