Covering modelling, texturing and rendering of a realistic human head I made for Blending Life 2010.

Okay, I’ve been fighting the good fight with Blender for a few weeks trying to convert some models I originally created for rendering into a printable file. I’ve learned a lot in the process, so I thought I’d share some of what I’ve learned. Forgive me if some of this is obvious.

Learn the basics about the video sequencer and how to use it, then make a slide show with a bunch of different transitions!

In this article, we’ll see how to create an image render not with the use of external renderers but with Blender’s native internal renderer.  We’ll look at how powerful the internal renderer is and how we can achieve similar results with that of dedicated renderers from tweaking light settings until the final compositing.
