Instructor
3D Character Artist
Minjeong Shin
Hello, my name is Minjeong Shin and I am a 3D character artist. I teach 3D character design for Blender through lectures and books and also create and post content about 3D characters on YouTube and Instagram.
In this class, I will explain every stage of my actual workflow so you can create 3D characters like mine. You will learn sculpting techniques to stylize characters in appealing ways, efficient retopology skills, and how to create a full character, which I couldn’t cover in the previous class. Discover advanced character design methods for producing quality results, taking it one step at a time.

Class Highlights
Create Basic Stylized Bodies, the Starting Point of 3D Blender Characters
The look of a 3D character depends on the quality of its “basic shape.” Using the full body of a stylized character as the base, you will study faces and bodies, as well as various parts like hands and feet in depth.
Design Your Own Characters with Various Details While Building Application Skills
The ability to create good details for a character allows you to broaden the spectrum of your 3D character design. You will build faces, emotions, poses, and every other element of a character that you can imagine, developing skills that you can apply to your own characters as well.
Master Sculpting and Retopology, the Keys to Character Design!
You can’t create natural and attractive characters without going through the process of sculpting and retopology. Join Minjeong Shin as she shares every bit of her sculpting and retopology skills for improving quality and efficiency, the secret weapons that took her years to build.

Interview with
3D Character Artist Minjeong Shin
Question.01
What is the purpose of this class, and what makes it different from others?
This class explores the entire workflow I use to design a 3D character. It is designed for learners who want to create 3D characters in the same style as mine and helps them follow my design process step by step. By the time you finish this class, you will be able to create the base of a fully stylized character using only Blender.
Question.02
What would be the most important takeaway from your class?
I will demonstrate how to create the basic body of a fully stylized character, which serves as the base for 3D character design, as well as how to create various characters using basic shapes. You will also learn sculpting and retopology skills that can be used in Blender, and different facial expressions and postures by working on a range of step-by-step exercises.
Question.03
Who do you think should take this class?
I recommend this class to those who wish to create American-style 3D characters, turn a 2D character or someone they like into a 3D character, or study 3D character design in depth. You will work on different exercises, not just creating characters but also applying them for various purposes.
Required Programs
This course will use Blender 4.0. Please purchase and install Blender of the same or higher version for an optimal learning experience.
*Make sure to prepare a tablet for the sculpting process.
