The Book
I was involved in the technical review of this book.
Blender 2.5 Hotshot will show you how powerful and capable Blender 3D is when you use it to its full potential.
Go beyond the basic tasks in Blender 3D and dive into more challenging territory.
Ditch simple, boring figures in favour of more detailed, visually rich and polished results.

Materials
We'll start by covering all the steps involved in creating a complete image from scratch by working on a spaceship scene, then we'll move on to working with blueprints by creating an aircraft scene and a car model.
Next you will use the video editor to create a professional looking demo reel, followed by the game engine to create an interactive first person architectural walkthrough.

Learn true skills
As each chapter is a complete project, you'll also learn how to create very nice materials, including multi-layered textures and the use of colour ramps to achieve special effects.
In the lighting section, you'll learn various tricks to control how each light behaves and affects the scene, as well as some basic setups for common situations.
In the modelling section, you'll work on both mechanical and organic objects, learning some key concepts along the way.

Shaders
Compositing is widely used to take normal rendering to the next level and add some nice special effects such as glare.
You will even have the opportunity to write some Python code for the game engine.
Finally, you'll work on creating a snail using some advanced texturing tricks and compositing it into real footage.
