About this course

Learn 3D design specifically for UI/product designers — no film VFX, no game art, just the techniques you need to create 3D icons, illustrations, product mockups, and hero scenes for digital products. The course uses Blender (free) and focuses on speed and quality over technical complexity. You'll learn basic modeling, material setup, studio lighting, and rendering workflows optimized for web-resolution output. By the end, you'll be able to create a complete 3D icon set, product showcase scene, and animated hero section — all from scratch in Blender, exported and ready for your designs.
