After being so used to creating things with words on paper and making the occasional doodle with pen on paper, the idea of creating in 3D seemed so foreign to me.

As a Creative Writing major, I never would have guessed that I would one day learn to use a 3D modeling software. I started learning Blender in Fall of 2020 through a class offered at the University. With the models you create in Blender, you could go on to create animated films, 3D printed models, computer games, and even things in virtual reality. What if I told you that you could do 3D modeling using Blender on your own laptop, for free, and create a starter project in under an hour? Blender is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software tool set used for creating a wide variety of things. When X-Ray Mode is off, you will only be able to see the side of the object facing the viewport and you will only be able to select the vertices, edges, and faces that are visible in the viewport.3D modeling can seem like something for just the professionals with fancy equipment, expensive programs, and hours upon hours of time. When X-Ray Mode is on, you will be able to see through the objects and select any vertices, edges, or faces from any side. X-Ray Mode: Click the icon that resembles a square in front of another square in the upper-right corner to toggle X-Ray Mode on and off.This turns the mouse cursor into a circle that you can click and drag to select multiple vertices, edges, or faces. Press C on the keyboard to activate circle-select mode.This allows you to select multiple vertices, edges, or faces by clicking and dragging a box over them. Press B on the keyboard to activate box-select mode.Press A on the keyboard to select all faces, vertices, and edges in an object.Move the vertices, faces, and edges of a mesh to create the shape you want. Hold Shift to select multiple vertices, edges, or faces. Then use the Move, Rotate, or Scale tools to manipulate them. Use one of the select modes and select some vertices, edges, or faces.
