  • Can't Go Wrong With A For Dummies Book
I am learning Blender in order to create items for my 3D printer and for my CNC machine. Blender for Dummies has helped me learn to create and edit projects for both of these machines.

  • Must have Blender book.
This is a must have book for Blender. The explanations are good and there is a lot of information in this book. The one thing that would benefit it is more examples. Some topics are not covered at all, but this is the nature of Blender. There is just too much to cover in one book. I wish the author would have written a follow up book. Also, this book was written for Blender 2.8, so it is showing its age in that respect but it's not a huge problem. ... show more

  • Lots of info
Wanted to learn 3d modeling so I can design my own models for my 3d printer. Lots of good info here and everything is organized neatly. Must have if you want to get better with Blender!

  • fantastic book
I found my self very frustrated trying to learn Blender because of the sheer magnitude and complexity of the program, and the official online documentation was hard to follow. This book is organized very well. So far, many things I have read in this book has made a lightbulb go off in my head. "Oh THAT's why they do that!". If I had looked at this book before I had some experience with blender I might have found it hard to follow. There is no substitute for hands on learning and gaining muscle memory through sheer repetition, however if you follow this book in conjunction with physical familiarity with the program, what he is saying becomes more intuitive. I don't find this book boring at all. It is well thought out, comprehensive, and accessible. I'm glad I found it. ... show more

  • Too Dummy to use Dummies
Blender is not something that is easily learned in a book. It gives a lot of head knowledge, when what Blender students need is hands on. Also, this book covers Blender 2.8 when my version is 3.2. Much has changed. Better to go to the learning videos and follow with them, however, I keep my book around for references. ... show more
