In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will create the UV seams for the model. You'll learn about how you can quickly select and cut all the necessary edges on a model based on their angle, drastically speeding up the UV workflow.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, optimize the hard surface UVs of the model. You'll go over how UVs are automatically packed in Blender and how you can improve their spacing by manually rearranging them.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will bake the normal bevels. Normal map bevels are a very efficient way to add believable highlights to your model's edges. You'll learn how to use the TexTools addon for Blender to create these for you automatically.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will learn the basics of using the 3D-Coat software. You'll go over the interface, navigation, and the basics of how to use sculpt tools.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will create the base shapes for the dragon handles. You'll learn how to use the Curves tool to quickly create organic forms that are ideal for our dragon handles.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will be sculpting the smaller forms of the model. You'll learn more about the common sculpt tools and the techniques you can use to have control over the form of your object.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will use more specialized sculpting tools. You'll learn about the Muscle and Snake tools, which are perfect for creating the ornate details along the body of the dragon.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will finish the dragon handles of the 3d model. You'll sculpt details at a higher resolution and finish any last minute touches you want to make to your model.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will begin working on the stem dragon. You'll learn more polygon modeling techniques and how to use what are traditionally hard surface modeling tools to create smooth organic shapes.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will set up the stem body. You'll place the appropriate reference images and learn how to bring in reference meshes without losing their detail through voxelization.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will make the stem dragon body. You'll visit the curves tool again and go over creating multiple curves on a single layer to make more complex forms.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will finish the stem dragon. You'l learn about the uses of the scrape tool and how you can use splines for more controlled sculpting for smoother results.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will begin retopology on the model. In this video, you'll learn about how you can guide 3D-Coat's automatic retopology to to most of the work for you.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will continue with the retopology of the model. You'll learn how you can manually adjust the retopology mesh to take care of any artifacts left over from the automatic retopology process.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will begin un unwrapping the retopology model. You'll learn how to use 3D-Coat's UV unwrapping tools and how to optimally pack your UVs to get the most out of your textures.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will learn how to bake the texture maps.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will texture the 3d model. You'll create a normal map for your model and you'll learn how to create a Smart Material that will allow you to very quickly texture all of the models for this course.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will begin sculpting the hard surface pieces. You'll learn how to combine multiple meshes in 3D-Coat and how to use radial symmetry to create many details quickly.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will bake the hard surface pieces. You'll learn about how to import custom retopology meshes instead of having 3D-Coat create them.

In this Advanced Prop Modeling in Blender lecture, you will finish the texturing of the model. You'll learn about how to paint custom normal depth information onto our low polygon objects to add more detail as well as learn a few more texturing tools inside of 3D-Coat.
