Stylized 3D Portraits in Blender (3.2.1): From Basics to Final Render

Learn how to design and bring to life unique stylized 3D portraits in Blender.

This course takes you through my entire workflow — starting with a simple project and advancing to two complete stylized portraits, with full modeling, sculpting, lookdev and rendering.

Instead of focusing on photorealism, you’ll learn how to create expressive characters with personality, stylization and artistic appeal — the kind of work that stands out in portfolios and social media.

What you’ll learn:

- How to model and sculpt stylized heads in Blender

- Simplifying anatomy while keeping strong proportions

- Creating appealing shapes and silhouettes

- LookDev: stylized materials, shaders and colors

- Lighting and rendering to match the artistic style

- Two complete portrait projects to apply everything

Course structure:

- Module 1: Simple stylized model + final render

- Modules 2–7: Step-by-step process of a full stylized portrait

- Module 8: Another complete portrait project for practice

Extra resources included:

- All source files from the lessons, so you can study and practice directly with the same assets used in the course

- A rigged base model ready to use in your own projects, to speed up your creative process

By the end of this course, you’ll be ready to create your own stylized 3D portraits — perfect for portfolios, freelance work or personal projects.
