Now that we've made 2D games, you'll get a sneak peek at making 3D games by learning to 3D model. Join digital artist Kevin Liao as we create an apartment building model in Blender. Blender is the 3D modeling software we will use for the following sections of this course.

Blender is FREE and works on both Mac and PC! The interface is virtually the same. The only major difference is the hotkeys.

Before we dive into making a model, I will explain the basics of the professional Blender interface in this tutorial. Don't be intimidated! Even absolute beginners can start with me.

Blender is my favorite platform for making 3D models. Blender lets you make high quality art to export anywhere you could want: a game engine like Unity, animations in short films, ads, TV series, feature films, and your 3D printer. You name it!
