Before moving into 3D, you will choose a set of your black and white sketches to refine with further details and new ideas.

This optional lesson contains instruction on how to use all the 3D software that Gabriel uses in this course. Later, if you are ever unsure how to use a certain tool or function, you can return here to brush up on the techniques.

In this lesson, Gabriel will teach you to model a high quality spacecraft that's tailored to your scene, spending time detailing only the things that will be needed for your final artwork.

Now you will finish your spaceship design by adding materials and rendering out shots, which you can bring into the paintover stage.

In this lesson, you will use your 3D rendered spacecraft as a base to create a finished keyframe paintover.

In this lesson, you will create a main hero asset for your next keyframe.

Now that you have a hero asset, it’s time to populate your scene with any other necessary 3D elements, before rendering out your shot.

Now that you have your 3D renders, you will use them to create the final paintover of your second keyframe.
