Beginner's Guide to Stylized Character Creation for Games (Udemy.com)

Суперкурс для початківців у створенні стилізованих персонажів для ігор! Дуже вдячний автору за детальний і практичний гайд. Курс дозволяє швидко освоїти весь пайплайн від моделінгу до текстурування. Єдине зауваження: я звик до Blender, але заради цікавості пройшов у Maya, як радить автор. Maya здається дещо незручною порівняно з user-friendly інтерфейсом Blender, але це крутий виклик! Все ж вирішив наростити скіли й освоїти професійний софт. Якщо Maya можна замінити Blender для моделінгу, то ZBrush, Marmoset та Substance — це справжні стандарти індустрії, і курс чудово їх розкриває. Рекомендую всім, хто хоче рости в геймдеві! Привіт з України! Super course for beginners in stylized character creation for games! Huge thanks to the author for this detailed and hands-on guide. It covers the full pipeline from modeling to texturing in a super practical way. One note: I'm a Blender user, but I followed along in Maya for fun, as the author uses it. Maya feels a bit clunky compared to Blender's user-friendly interface, but it was a great challenge! Still, I decided to level up my skills with pro software. While Blender can replace Maya for modeling, tools like ZBrush, Marmoset, and Substance are industry standards, and the course nails them. Highly recommend to anyone aiming to grow in gamedev! Greetings from Ukraine!

By far one of the friendliest and most down to earth teacher I've ever listened to and followed along with. VERY talented in his work and will for sure be purchasing more from Abraham, his enthusiasm encourages me to have fun while i follow along and make the mistakes to grow from. That's what makes a great teacher.

This is the second course I've gone through taught by Abraham, and I'm already planning on taking on his more advanced courses, which should tell you what I think about his teaching style. He's does a fantastic job, he actually takes the time to explain why he's doing the things he's doing and also touching on alternative methods for multiple points in the pipeline. A few notes on this course, one, due to him working at a bit faster pace to keep the course from being insanely long, there are a few small things he misses (main ones being not modeling the character's grenades and not texturing the mouth interior). However, considering how much he shows you it's not hard to take this as an opportunity to use what you've learned and figure it out on you own like I did. Also, it would have been nice to touch a bit more on stylized character design in general and how the modeling workflow fits into the full production pipeline, it's touched on briefly in direct context to the specific character being modeled but it would have been nice to have been given a bit more overall context, even if it's just discussed a bit more in depth and not demonstrated. Still, for a beginner's course, what is covered is more than adequate. Overall, even if you're like me and not a complete beginner, this course has a lot to offer. I learned a ton that I feel will dramatically improve my work in the future, and I feel like now I have a clear path to build up my portfolio and hopefully someday soon get that dream job I've always wanted.

Every of details and information was clear and understandable. An addition it was production ready course, i learned many of details, previously this course i know a few things but after the course i can do much things in the production. Thanks to Nexttut team.

Hey Abraham, as usual your course is very interesting ad motivating. So I'm going to try, with what I learned with your other courses, to redo your character in a realistic style using Maya, Zbrush, Marvelous Designer and Xgen and make myself a good portfolio. So Thank you for this course.

Muy buen curso, algo pesado, me tomó un mes completarlo pero puedo decir que aprendí bastante; una cosa que si podria sugerir para cursos futuros es que se use el pluggin que muestre que teclas presionó el instructor, ya que a veces no decia lo que hacia y tenia que estar buscando o adivinando qué onda, otra seria que en la parte de la retopologia se tomara más tiempo de explicar el flujo de los quads y como siguen la forma (ya sé que no es un curso de retopologia, pero hubiera estado cool), de todos modos quedo muy satisfecha con el curso y volveré a tomar clases impartidas por el instructor!

This guy is fantastic, Nextut always releases the best tuts. If you want you can do what I did and not follow along exactly but sort of create your own character by learning from his lessons. Either way you'll learn a ton. Thanks so much you guys you rock!

This is really useful to me to learn more to use simplify the usage of tools and how to create the stylized character and how the create the model from high poly to low poly and more topics are expecting for the instituter. Thank you for teaching to understand very easily & explanatory way.

概略、アート、使用ツールなどの説明がとても丁寧です。

Great instructor. But if you don't know nothing about Maya and Zbrush, you will be in real trouble. I use Maya and Zbrush for 2 years and half so for me it's not a problem. The other problem is he teaches super fast and he didn't create the character from the start (he uses a "pre made" character and changes the form of the face and body) so in the end it isn't creating a character from the scratch...
