PLEASE NOTE

This course was recorded using an older version of Blender. This means that if using the latest version of Blender please expect there to be some interface differences. 

To reflect this the course has been lowered to $30. 

Why not unpublish it completely? We do aim to do that to our older courses soon but so many people have gotten in touch with us asking about them unconcerned with the interface differences that we've decided to keep them available for the time being and give anyone interested a reasonable chance to still get them.

NOTE (This only means it'll no longer be on our storepage for sale, those who have it will always have access)

Each course does tend to have a fair amount of information that is thought to be 'evergreen' so to speak or more principle based to put it another way, though it's not really the complete experience that we intended it when it was first released.

The support and interest in our courses after all this time absolutely blows us away and we are very grateful! 

Learn how to create amazing stylized and non-photorealistic 3D art in Blender 2.92.

Non-photorealistic rendering or NPR is a whole world by itself! From Pixar-style or 'Into the Spiderverse'-style rendering to low-poly aesthetics or pixel art, there are so many ways to express yourself by creating stylized 3D assets and scenery. 

No need to spend a lifetime learning the NPR ways though. We condensed the principles and techniques of creating stylized 3D into this 12+ hour training for beginner-intermediate Blender users.

What the artists say?

"Ever wanted to dip your toes into the world of NPR? Look no further; this is one of the best introductions for it yet!" 

Sreliata, Render Artist

 “This course is WILD! The gateway drug into NPR. Remembering my first foray into NPR, this is that. You want to feel how I feel years ago, this is your chance. The once in a life time experience.”

Light BWK, @Lightbwk, co-founder of http://BlenderNPR.org

"This course not only teaches one specific set of skills, but touches on the concept, modeling, texturing, shading, compositing, grease pencil, even shows you how to use blenders python API as an artist and more. I highly recommend this course."

Zuggamasta / Alexander Mitzkus 

"Filled with concepts about stylization I'd never heard of before and ideas about how I can incorporate these new techniques into my workflow. I was left feeling very inspired! Everything is broken down in a way that's approachable and friendly."
