Blender Beginner Character Modeling and Animation: Iron Man Addition

If you’re here, you want to make amazing models of popular characters, amazing environments, or anything else your imagination can think of.  You might be worried about where to start.  Well, you’re in the right place.  In this class, we’re going to do a low poly version of Iron Man With the blast-off thrusters. 
 “What does low poly mean”, you might be asking.  In a program like Blender, objects are typically made from points(called vertices), lines(called edges), and faces(sometimes called polygons).  An object could be anywhere from 4 vertices to millions.  The problem with tons of vertices(polygons) is that the model is often times super complicated to make and harder for your computer to process.  That’s why a great place to start when you’re first learning is what we call low poly.
In this class, we teach you how to create a character in a low poly style.  Using these techniques you can take your favorite anime hero, or movie character, and make your own version you can impress your friends with.  
You're going to learn how to take a character like Iron Man and make a 3D model from a photo. Once you understand this technique, you can take any of your favorite Characters and bring them to 3D life.
That’s not all though.  This class is pretty special because you’re also going to learn how to use Blender’s smoke and fire simulation to create the thruster blast-off effect.  You’ll even learn how to pose a character in seconds using Mixamo, the free online animation software.
