I am following these really great videos on Text manipulations from littlewebhut on YouTube. I check that site every day and have gotten about 3 free blender books in about 2 months.īlender for Dummies might be exactly what I need. Very often it’s Blender based or Unity or Unreal. They give away a free technical ebook every day.

All of them cover the basics to advanced.Īlso check out. Those are my personal favorites and go-to tutorials. Blender101 also has some subscription based contect too. His youtube is free of course, and most (if not all) of his youtube content is also free on blender101. He has been a goto for me for about a year.ĭarrin is a certified Blender Instructor and also really good at explanations. This guy is awesome, fairly clever, and has good explanations as to why and what he’s doing. But in the last few years…here are my fav youtube channels (blenderguru being one of them) I’ve been hacking through them for years. I’ve bought a few books, only to find that books didn’t seem to be my cup of tea.

And, of course, if anyone ever has a question or issue with the book, I’m more than happy to answer. That said, I built a supplemental website for the book that does have a lot of written tutorial content. That includes how things work in Blender and more importantly (IMHO) why things work the way they do. It’s meant to give you an understanding of the tools available in Blender. As such, you shouldn’t expect to see a lot of tutorial content in the book. Generally speaking, the For Dummies series is primarily meant as a beginner’s reference. the comments from people who already knew the basics were positive tho. but that was for the 1st edition, he might have noobed it down a bit since them. The author of the for dummies book is a member and a regular here, cant remember his forum name at the moment but he told me not to get for dummies as a noob, that it was not a beginner book which i assumed from the title.
