MS-06 Zaku II - Mecha in Blender 3D Modeling Timelapse (no audio)

This video shows 19.5 hours of polygonal hard-surface modeling within Blender 4.3 💽 Real-time versions of this video can be found here - https://mjeff3d.gumroad.com/l/mecha-i... - These videos include a detailed .blend file of this model along with Discord access in case you have any detailed questions. This video is intended for people with an overall understanding of the 3D production process in Blender for games and animation. You should be able to slow down and pause the video at any moment to see which shortcut keys I use, but if some processes are unclear, please ask me in the comments below. This entire project (renders, animation, variants, revisions, and troubleshooting included) took 93 hours. The Shrinkwrap Modifier and the Subdivision Modifier were used heavily to construct the many irregular armor shapes. The main features and proportions of the Zaku II and its variants were mainly based on the Master Grade 2.0 Zaku II model kit from 2007. Very few add-ons were used in this entire project, but the ones that were used are exactly the same as the add-ons displayed at the beginning of the RX-78 video on this channel (   • RX-78 Gundam - Mecha in Blender 3D Modelin...  . This workflow relies on polygonal modeling and subdivision, it does not include sculpting at all. Models made with this workflow can be used inside of game engines or for animation projects. 3D prints are possible, but they may not produce the same results as sculpt or NURBS modeling workflows. -------- ▶️ Reference planes of this model and many other Gundam-based mechs can be found here - https://mjeff3d.gumroad.com/l/RefPlanes ▶️ Renders of this project can be found on my ArtStation page - https://www.artstation.com/artwork/nJ... ▶️ For commission inquiries, please contact me through email - https://www.artstation.com/mjeff/profile ▶️ More timelapses -    • Timelapses   ▶️ Recommended tutorial for advanced modeling - https://cgmasters.gumroad.com/l/3d-cars ▶️ Recommended tutorials for rigging - https://blendermarket.com/products/ha... -------- 0:00 Intro Animation and Project Setup 0:40 Pelvis 6:16 Chest & Backpack 16:15 Head 21:01 Legs 31:25 Feet 38:25 Arms 45:11 Shoulder Armor 49:40 Bazooka 52:21 Basic Detail and Topology Cleanup 55:58 Rifle ------- #blender #b3d #gundam #zaku #hardsurface #topology #mecha
