In this series, we’re going to learn about how to create different kinds of materials in Blender. From simple colors to PBR materials to even procedurally generated materials, creating materials in Blender can go a long way towards making your models significantly more realistic!
In this first video, learn how to add materials to objects, how to change and adjust materials, as well as how to repeat materials across multiple objects in your 3D models!
