Goal
To be able to create my own 3D models for games and knowing the difficulty of creating a 3D model, I wanted to created several 3D models in Blender. I wanted to make around 5 3D models that were suitable for a beginner.
Process
To learn the basics of modeling in Blender, I watched some videos tutorials from Blender Guru. With his help I created a beautiful donut. After I finished the donut, I tried to create some 3D models myself without the help of videos. I made a 3D model of a bedroom, chair, pistol and two wine bottles. The wine bottles have a normal and broken version. It took a lot of time, but they turned out quite nice!
What did I learn?
- How to use and navigate in Blender
- Sculpting
- UV Editing
- Texture Painting
- Shading
- Rendering
Donut
To get familiar with Blender, I decided to follow Blender Guru's tutorial. His beginners tutorial is well known and very good. I followed all the videos for making the donut. The donut turned out very nice.

Bedroom
After I made the donut, I wanted to do it myself. I've been trying to recreate my bedroom. I managed to do this without the help of (tutorial) videos. I am quite proud of the result! This bedroom can be used as a placeholder space.

Chair
After the bedroom I wanted to model a piece of furniture. This eventually became a simple chair. I used the chair for texture testing. The first image is the texture I made myself. The second image is the texture made with an image of wood.

Pistol
A placeholder that had to be made anyway was a gun. An fps game is nothing without a clear model of a gun. This model was quite difficult to make. This mainly had to do with bending the handle and trigger. But after all the hassle, the model turned out good.

Wine bottle
As the last model I wanted to make a wine bottle. You can often smash a wine bottle on someone in games. That's why I made 2 models. A model where the wine bottle is whole and a model where the wine bottle is broken. This model can be used as a weapon. Making the broken glass was quite difficult and took a while to make. But it looks good.
