Full body character sculpt course?

Upvotes

Hey!

I followed the "Human" course on CGCookie and have just started building my first real character. I love the course, but it only shows how to build a bust and clothes, no body.

Can you recommend other great courses, but mostly for bodies?

I don't even need the whole body to look great, since only the forearms and lower legs will be visible and the other parts will be covered by clothes. But I feel paralyzed, since I am a noobie and I feel like I need a structured approach. Also, attempting to merge the bust with a body feels scary, even though it shouldn't be.

Any help is much appreciated.

Modeling Day 4: Creating a River Wanderer Scene in Blender

For Day 4 of my 30 Days of Blender Challenge, I wanted to create a scene that feels like the start of an adventure—a lone wanderer traveling down a river on a bamboo boat, surrounded by mountains and small islands.
The goal is to keep creating, learning, and building scenes that I can eventually use in larger projects and explainer-style animations.

Modeling Day 3/30 — Creating a Cinematic Desert Scene in Blender

Thumbnail youtu.be
1 Upvotes

Welcome to Day 3 of my 30-Day Blender Challenge!
Today we're creating a cinematic desert environment in Blender, focusing on composition, atmosphere, lighting, and creating a sense of scale.
I started by building the main desert environment and arranging the scene around the composition I wanted. From there, I added the different elements needed to make the environment feel more cinematic, worked on the lighting and atmosphere, and refined the scene to create more depth and visual interest.
The goal of this challenge isn't to spend days making one perfect artwork. It's about creating something new every day, learning from it, and building things that I can eventually use in larger projects and explainer-style animations.

Day 2: Creating a Cyberpunk scene in Blender
https://youtu.be/_BNgLKdAPmQ
For today's challenge, I wanted to create a cinematic cyberpunk city scene from scratch by focusing on composition, atmosphere, lighting, and depth.
I started by collecting references from different cyberpunk scenes to figure out the overall mood and composition. Instead of modeling every building myself, I used KitBash3D and YAKOVLEV ART assets to quickly build the city.
Then I downloaded a character from Mixamo and started composing the scene around it.
After blocking out the main buildings, I added:
🌫️ Volumetric fog for atmosphere
💡 Cinematic lighting
🌈 Neon signs and glowing elements
🏙️ Large buildings in the background with lit windows
📐 Layered composition to create depth and scale
Finally, I rendered the scene and completed the final compositing directly in Blender.
This is Day 2 of 30 — one new Blender creation every day throughout September.
The goal is simple:

I built an audio-reactive animation addon for Blender - now live on Superhive!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

3 Upvotes

I spent the last 3 months building a Blender addon that turns audio into animation automatically using 16-band EQ-driven scale/rotation/position, beat detection, metaball fusing, neon glow, plus auto generators for camera rigs, lighting, and backdrops so you're not building a scene from scratch every time. Built it originally for music videos and VJ visuals.

It's LIVE on SuperHive Market: Audio Reactive Plug - Launch Price is $20

Happy to answer questions about how it works under the hood!

Tutorials coming soon!

Day 1: Creating a Realistic Mountain in Blender

https://youtu.be/tkF9bkUaIbM

Welcome to Day 1 of my 30 Days of Blender Challenge!
For the entire month of September, I'll be creating something new in Blender every day and sharing the process.
For Day 1, we're starting with a realistic mountain environment.

In this tutorial, I'll show you how I created the terrain using Blender's ANT Landscape add-on, then built a procedural scattering setup to populate the mountain with vegetation and additional details.

What I cover:

• Creating the mountain terrain using the ANT Landscape add-on
• Creating vertex groups to control where different elements appear
• Converting vertex group information into **Color Attributes** for use in the scattering system
• Blending different terrain materials based on the mountain surface
• Scattering trees and bushes across the environment
• Using Megascans assets to add additional detail and realism
• Putting everything together with lighting and materials for the final mountain scene

The goal of this challenge isn't to create a masterpiece every single day — it's to keep creating, learning, and improving for 30 days straight.

📅 Day 1/30 — September Blender Challenge
