Cute & Cozy Style with Blender

Adorable 3D renders are like candy to the eyes and heart. The genre is also one of the most accessible creative styles that anyone can achieve.

In this course, Ethan Williams walks you through his process for building acute, cozy, and beginner-friendly winter scene captured in a snow globe.

What You Will Learn

• Modeling simplistic, stylized models from scratch
• Detailing and framing a scene to maximize appeal
• Fundamental Modeling techniques like beveling, boolean cutting, subdivision surfaces, arraying duplicates, and much more.
• Utilizing free textures from polyhaven.com
• Automatic plug-n-play texture importing with the Node Wrangler Addon
• Crafting rich, appealing materials
• Cozy lighting setup

Chapter 1: Modeling the Dome & Cabin

Starting from scratch, learn to build each component of the glass dome and cabin structure. Every object originates with simple primitives, making this workflow simple and beginner-friendly.

Chapter 2: Modeling Furniture & Extras

Modeling continues as we build out the detail objects, including furniture, books, presents, trees, and snowman. This will complete the construction of our cozy scene.

Chapter 3: Texturing & Materials

(COMING JANUARY 2025)

The transition from boring grey to lively color! We will bring our models to life with free textures from polyhaven.com and simple but effective materials. This workflow is plug-n-play to keep progress quick and easy.

Chapter 4: Lighting & Rendering

(COMING JANUARY 2025)

The final phase of this project is where the 'cozy' happens. With proper lighting, our scene starts cold on the outside with warm fire lighting on the inside. In this chapter our render is made complete.
