This was a fantastic course, and I learned so much! For future courses, it would be awesome to get even more in-depth. I'd love to see content focused on Geometry Nodes and a walkthrough on how to put together an environment or product breakdown showreel.

Some very important details are left out that are very hard to grasp for absolute new beginners like in Human body Modelling part , Tree colouring etc . The video is too fast paced for new learners ( little to no explaining what the options are for ? )… And different versions of blender is used in the course which makes it very confusing as UI is different from the one I am using for learning. The Course is Pricey but the learning experience doesn’t reflect that price … I feel cheated.

Displaimer: I am still at section 4 out of 10. So far, IMHO: This course is ALMOST excellent: - the course owner tries his best in explaining concepts. - there are a lot of exercises teaching all aspects of 3D modeling in a clear way The only cons I can find is that the author somethings during modeling exercises goes very fast and you have to rewind the video multiple times to exactly get what he does Overall, I am very very satisfied with the course and I suggest to everyone wanting to learn Blender basics from scratch.

I found the course very good and thorough. Course starts slow with important things are explained properly. Although during the later stages the pacing does get a little fast for a beginners P.O.V but then this is a video and one can re-watch it as much as one wants ;P . Further love it how the Instructor updated the course sections for Blender 5.0 .. Only thing I kind of found annoying was the opening music section at the start of each lecture (apporx 16 secs) but that's a personal nitpik of mine ;P . All in all solid course and thumbs up for the effort.

When I first opened Blender I remember myself. I thought Blender was so complicated and hard to learn. But still I wanted to give it a try so I watched the iconic donut video first like every beginner person. I finished all the parts but still felt like I didnt learn much then I found this course and this course really helped me to get the basics. This course literally has everything I need. I'm so excited for the final animationnnn. Thank you so much for everything

Pretty good as an intro. A few minor things were pretty annoying though like questions at the end of each theoretical video (we are not in school).

I just started this course two days ago. I have some experience in 3d modelling and in animation. i choose this course because the Autodesk Maya is really expensive and i want to find an alternative program what i can use for practice. So far i would say this course is very understandable you will find every information to start your jurney in animation or in 3D modelling.It is really understandable and there is a lot of useful infomation about the Blender program.

This course is good even for an intermediate Blender user. The tutor explains everything well. Seeing the result of low poly village with a car and characters in the end is great. I hope this tutor makes more Advanced Blender courses.

With this course, at least you can do 3d Low Poly Modelling, Texturing and Animation. Teaching style is awesome and strp by step. At lease teacher has elaborated each important part which is necessary for final result. In short, its a result oriented course.
By Bruno Borges on 1/17/2025
The course covered the basics very well. It goes direct to the point most of the time. It doesn't take more time than necessary to teach you the fundamentals and presents briefly some more complex features, so you know that it exists and can research for yourself. For me, it was a great course.
