3D Modelling with Blender for Games

A practical course for professionals in the game development industry who are new to Blender and want to build a solid workflow for creating game ready 3D assets. The agenda introduces Blender from a production perspective, with a focus on efficient modeling, clean topology, asset preparation, and optimization for real time use. By the end of the course, participants will understand how to move from reference and blockout to a finished asset that is ready for export into a game pipeline.

What will you learn?

You will learn how to navigate Blender confidently and use its core modeling tools to create clean, efficient assets for games. You will understand how topology, scale, UVs, materials, and optimization decisions affect real time performance and downstream workflows. You will also gain a practical view of how Blender fits into a broader game art pipeline, from asset planning to export.

Build game ready 3D assets in Blender using efficient modeling workflows
Create clean topology, UVs, and asset structures suitable for real time engines
Prepare props and environment assets for export, organization, and reuse
Apply practical optimization techniques for performance and production quality

Requirements:

Suitable for game developers, technical artists, junior artists, and related professionals who are new to Blender
No prior Blender experience required
Basic familiarity with game development workflows is helpful

Course Outline*:

*We customize the course outline and content to your specific needs and relevant use cases.

Module 1: Getting started with Blender for game production

Building simple props from reference using blockout techniques
Developing clean habits for non destructive and readable modeling

Module 3: Topology and asset structure

Understanding clean topology for readability, editing, and optimization
Distinguishing triangles, quads, and n gons in practical game asset work
Managing shading, normals, smoothing, and supporting edges
Identifying common topology problems and how to fix them

Module 4: Hard surface and modular asset thinking

Modeling hard surface props and architectural elements for games
Reusing repeated forms and working with symmetry and modifiers
Building modular pieces that fit level design and environment workflows
Keeping models efficient while preserving visual clarity

Module 5: UV mapping for game assets

Understanding seams, islands, texel density, and layout logic
Unwrapping assets so textures behave predictably
Organizing UV space for single assets and reusable sets
Avoiding stretching, wasted space, and hard to maintain layouts

Module 6: Materials and visual setup

Creating simple materials to support look development and review
Understanding the difference between viewport look and game engine materials
Assigning material slots and structuring assets for export
Using color, roughness, and surface breakup to support readability

Module 7: High poly to low poly thinking

Distinguishing hero assets, reusable props, and background assets
Planning detail in a way that supports baking and real time constraints
Preparing models for normal map baking and surface detail transfer
Deciding what should be modeled and what should be represented through textures

Module 8: Baking and asset cleanup

Preparing meshes for baking and consistent shading results
Understanding normal, ambient occlusion, and curvature style outputs
Cleaning transforms, pivots, naming, and object hierarchy
Reviewing assets for handoff into texturing or engine integration

Module 9: Optimization for real time performance

Managing polygon budgets for different asset types and camera distances
Simplifying geometry while preserving silhouette and function
Understanding draw calls, material count, and scene efficiency
Making practical decisions about detail, reuse, and variation

Module 10: Exporting Blender assets into game workflows

Preparing models for export to common engines and pipelines
Handling transforms, pivots, naming, and object orientation correctly
Working with FBX and other common export formats
Avoiding common export issues with scale, normals, and hierarchy

Module 11: Asset consistency and production standards

Building reusable asset standards for teams and shared libraries
Using references, naming rules, and folder structure consistently
Supporting collaboration between modeling, texturing, rigging, and engine teams
Reviewing assets for quality, consistency, and production readiness

Module 12: Practical game art workflow in Blender

Moving from reference and blockout to finished game asset in a structured sequence
Choosing the right level of detail for different gameplay and camera needs
Creating a sustainable personal workflow for faster production
Building a practical checklist for future Blender work in game development
