What better way to celebrate Shark Week than by making Great White sharks in Blender??
Hello and welcome to the Station! In this Beginner's Workshop I'll walk you through low-poly modeling "Bob", a Great White shark swimming out of Ironbound Nova Scotia. Bob's an adult male Carcharodon carcharias from the East Coast, 4.06 meters in length and he weighs over 1300 pounds. Bob's a big boy, and Bob plays for keeps. I'm delighted if you want to model Bob with us, but if you'd like to track & model your OWN shark, you can pick a real live shark at: https://www.ocearch.org/tracker/

This is a "Beginner Level" tutorial and a great exercise for practicing low-poly modeling. If this is your first time working in Blender I want to invite you to open up a most-recent-version of the software right now and follow along with us in real-time and build your own Great White Shark. Anyone can do it, because Blender is for everyone, and the best way to learn about something is to make something with it, so let's get crackin'!
