Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Fixing Problematic Seams
Every object that is UV-mapped must have a beginning and point. In this lesson, you will learn where to put these and hide your seams to make them harder for players to see.

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Creating the Ale Mug Handles
This lesson will focus on creating handles for our ale mug. This is a characteristic asset that we would expect to see in a dungeon for the guards to drink out of. Wouldn't you?

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Working with More Ornate Models
This lesson will focus on adding ornate details to the model (for example, ornate flares on the top).

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Bringing Structural Accuracy to the Mix
In this lesson, we will be ensuring that our model is structurally accurate. For example, we need to make sure that the structure can hold the weight of all its counterparts, including the blade.

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Starting the Guillotine Model
Although guillotines were introduced later than the medieval historical period that our other assets are meant to depict, we thought you would enjoy learning how to make them as part of this course.

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Finishing the Rack Modelling
In this lesson, we will finish modelling our rack. We will have one rolling pin at the top of the rack, meaning that only the legs or arms can be dislocated at one time.

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Speeding Up Workflow with Geometry Nodes
In this lesson, we will be testing out both of our geometry nodes—chain and rope. We will be using them both in one model.

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Creating the Rack Base Mesh
In this lesson, we will start work on modelling another torture device for our dungeon. Racks are traditionally wooden and those who would lie on them will have their limbs stretched until they dislocate. Our aim is to make our rack as...

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Realizing Instances and Decimation
In this lesson, we will be using realizing instances to turn geometry nodes into mesh. This will result in a very high polygon count, meaning that we will need to use the decimation modifier in Blender to reduce the polygon count.

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Modelling the Prison Bed
This lesson will focus on modelling the prison bed for our scene. Unlike our own beds, this prison bed will not be cozy. We will include some straw on top to soften the wooden surface, and a pillow will be included in case you want to...

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Texturing the X Stocks Prop
In this lesson, we will be texturing our X stocks prop. Like our other stocks, this will include a blood decal to simulate blood stains as, after all, no one comes away unharmed after being on these X stocks.

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Adding to Our Geometry Node Chain
In this lesson, we will use the geometry node chain we created. This will give us time to test out all our variables.

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Working with the Loop Tools Addon
In this lesson, you will be introduced to another hidden addon in Blender—the loop tools addon. It enables you to create circles in geometry, allowing you to bridge your geometry with two clicks. This is a workaround for Boolean.

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Modelling the X Stocks
I have been watching and rewatching Game of Thrones (GoT) for many years. One of the most memorable characters in the series uses the X stocks for torture and I thought this would be a nice addition to our scene. This lesson will...

Blender to Unreal Engine - Become a Dungeon Prop Artist - Starting Our First Geometry Node
This lesson will be your crash course to geometry nodes in Blender. This will speed up your workflow because you will be able to alter how a prop looks (that is, its geometry) using node-based functions.
