UPDATE

I have uploaded a new lesson "Extra Tips #2" to help with optimizing the scene and get better lighting using HDRI.
I have also attached the blender project file for you to check out the final result.

___________________________

In this class, I will teach you how to design a minimal geometric scene in Blender 3D.

We will use simple geometric shapes and lay them out, light the scene, use a colour palette and shaders to set the materials and render a final image.

The resources you need are:

Blender which you can download from https://www.blender.org/
https://colorhunt.co/ to choose a colour palette of your liking.

This is a beginner’s tutorial, but it is expected that you have some basic knowledge of the Blender interface.

Follow this link for the official fundamentals playlist if you have never used the software.

I will guide you through the whole process of creating the scene as follows:

Creating objects using simple modelling techniques.
Laying out the scene and setting up the camera using guides.
Lighting.
Shading and materials setup.
Rendering and final touches.

These images above are other versions of the scene where I made the rectangle frame thicker and increased the sub-surface scattering value on the material of the statue.
