Learn Surface Modeling and Organic T-Spline Sculpting from Scratch with Real-World Examples
Overview
Unlock the full potential of Autodesk Fusion 360 by mastering the powerful techniques of surface design and T-Spline sculpting in this comprehensive, hands-on course. Whether you’re a complete beginner or someone with some Fusion 360 experience, this course will equip you with the skills needed to model complex, organic, and visually compelling shapes used in industries like product design, industrial design, and mechanical engineering.
The course begins with the fundamentals of surface modeling, where you'll learn to use tools like extrude, revolve, sweep, loft, patch, ruled surface, offset, trim, and stitch. Through easy-to-follow exercises and real-world projects, you'll develop the ability to create smooth and precise surface bodies that are often impossible to achieve with solid modeling alone.
Then, you’ll transition into the world of T-Spline sculpting—Fusion 360’s powerful toolset for designing freeform, organic shapes. You’ll create and edit T-Spline primitives, explore sculpting workflows using the Edit Form tool, and learn how to insert edges, bridge surfaces, create symmetry, and manipulate faces and vertices with precision. The course also covers converting sculpted bodies to solid forms and adding thickness for prototyping and production.
Whether you're designing consumer products, artistic models, or prototypes, this course provides the practical knowledge and creative techniques needed to turn your ideas into professional-quality 3D models.
