I think this course was a great introduction to FreeCAD, Blender & Twinmotion for producing architectural visuals. I look forward to advancing my skills in this area.

Thomas McDonald is an excellent instructor. I have several of his courses and have yet to be disappointed. His approach is direct and concise. His explanations are clear and simple. He explains everything you need to know without a lot of fluff.

I thought the course was very well done and the amount of detail was one of the things I really like from this instructor he covers the subject matter completely

I only needed the first couple of sections on Freecad and it was very easy to understand. Freecad is an awesome tool for drafting and I'm glad it was introduced

Hi Thomas, I thought the course was really good and I'm really looking forward to using this in my work. I design and build production sets and museum exhibitions so using Blender and Twinmotion is a very strong tool when presenting to clients and with the VR its great fun as well. Really good course and I'll recommend it to my colleagues :). Many thanks.
By Patrick Paauw on 5/12/2020
The course covers a lot of ground, but offers very little in-depth knowledge. Personally I feel like at least 90% of the content could be found out just by playing around a little with the software. To be fair: I do have some experience with Blender already, and that is where the real "knowledge" of this course is. Bought at € 10,- which feels like a fair price, at the original price I would've asked for a refund, sorry...

After finishing my studies in Architectural Design I didn't really know what area I wanted to specialise in. I began teaching myself to use Blender and soon developed a keen interest in 3D modelling and VR. I found this course by chance, and it is EXACTLY what I needed to get me started in VR and Arch Viz. Thanks so much Thomas for this well structured and easy to follow content. I feel I have really achieved something.

O instrutor poderia ser mais objetivo. Como o exemplo do mapeamento UV, onde poderia ser mais resumido.
By Auguste Chéry on 9/4/2019
Comme tous les cours de Thomas, celui-ci est d'excellente qualité, tant sur le contenu que sur la méthode pédagogique. C'est clair et pratique. En revanche, le sous-titrage en anglais est de piètre qualité. C'est dommage car il est bien utile pour celles et ceux qui ne comprennent pas forcément tout ce que le formateur dit...et parfois il parle très vite...
By Martin Windmill on 8/16/2019
Excellent course. I found the workflow from one application to another was seamless and nothing was left out so you could move between them with very little effort. I liked how Thomas showed you how to go back into Blender once in Twinmotion and change the design and materials and then export it back into Twinmotion and adjust the settings so it looked correct. Blender and Twinmotion, what a great combination. Thanks Thomas
