This is an excellent introduction to modeling with Blender, for people interested in industrial design, game design, or just if you want to design and model your own space ship, airplane or favorite car. Allan Brito not only takes you through a tutorial on modeling a handgun, a spacecraft and a transforming robot, he also shows you how to apply materials and how to animate such things as the engine exhausts, and how to attach materials. There is also a thorough explanation of how to install Yafaray, so that you can do much higher quality photo-realistic ray-tracings or renderings.



This is a wonderful book and is clearly written and easy to follow, despite the occasional English errors. The book only requires that you have a basic knowledge of some of the most rudimentary tools of Blender. In other words, it is not a guide of the many tools of Blender, rather it is an explanation of how you would go about working on some modeling projects, using Blender. It is a guide for how to understand the "work-flow" that you need to do a model thoroughly, in Blender.
