Learn the basics of 3D Modeling & Texturing in this excellent Foundation course

Ever wonder what the buzz is about 3D modeling? Many artists and companies from game and TV productions, to architects and museums worldwide, use 3D Modelling tools in different ways – from creating graphics, animations and object visualizations, to even 3D Printing.
