Intro to Modeling with MagicaVoxel

Schedule

20 min- Explanation of MagicaVoxel and the concept of voxels

30 min- Building the House

10 min-Renderer Basics

15 min- How to export your model and showing off your creation

What Students Learn

Making intricate models through the use of voxel modeling. Voxel modeling is a great way to start learning advanced modeling especially for those that have a harder time learning more traditional modeling software such as Blender or Maya.

What Students Create

A forest cabin surrounded by fog and fireflies.

Real-World Application

This model can be exported to be used in any number of programs from Blender to Unity, Meaning that you can use these models in order to be used in your games or animations. Many games such as Teardown use MagicaVoxel for every model in the game as it creates a very unique art style which many people enjoy.

What's Next

In the future, there will be more lessons that delve into how to create more advanced pieces of artwork within MagicaVoxel as well as how to use the models you make in Unity in the process of making games.
