About Neil

Neil Bettison is the founder of 3D Tudor, a bestselling Blender author, and a 3D educator specializing in Blender, Unreal Engine 5, game art, and environment creation. Since founding 3D Tudor in 2019, Neil and the team have built a large library of practical 3D training used by students worldwide.

Neil's teaching style focuses on demystifying complex topics. Whether it's Geometry Nodes, modular environment design, stylized 3D modelling, or full game-ready production, he approaches every subject the same way: break it down, build it up, ship a real result.

That philosophy shapes everything 3D Tudor publishes — from individual YouTube tutorials through full multi-hour courses, downloadable tool packs, and published books. Courses take students from blank scene to final render, covering planning, modelling, UVs, materials, lighting, composition, optimization, and presentation.
