In this lesson I'll show you how to model a simple 3D coin for our game using 3D modelling tools in Blender (adding a Primitive 3D cylinder, using edit mode, bevel, inset faces, extrude along normals, edge loop select, shade auto smooth, text objects, converting from text to mesh objects, cleaning up a mesh using limited dissolve and by removing doubles, using the boolean modifier to join two meshes, etc), add a metallic material, export to a GLTF (.glb) file for Godot, importing the .glb coin model into our Godot game project, and replacing the primitive cylinder in our collectable coin object scene from the last lesson.
