3D Art for Games, Free

Games need art, and the industry-standard tool for 3D is completely free. Learn Blender — modeling, texturing, and animation — from the official docs and the tutorial that launched a thousand careers. All resources current.

Behind every 3D game is a pile of 3D assets — characters, props, environments — and the tool most indie devs use to make them is Blender, which is free and open source yet powerful enough for professional film work. Learning to model, texture, and animate in Blender makes you a far more self-sufficient game developer. Start with the manual and the famous beginner tutorial series.
