Course Description

Student reviews :

Jibak says : One of the best online teaching courses on Character modeling. The course is superb because of the step by step detailing, completeness and 'No skips'. It starts with the very basics of Maya/ Zbrush/ MD and ultimately ends up in great detailing. The transition is very smooth and well organised. It improved my modeling skills a lot and also introduced me to new software like Zbrush & MD . Though I have not completed the course yet but it is amazing and worth buying. Thanks to Udemy and Mr. N. K. Jena for providing such a tutorial. 

Stevenf says : The instructor explains everything extremely well and detailed. I
recommend this class for anyone interested in learning modeling.

Edwin Gomez says : Great instruction! The material being delivered is top notch. I love the how the instructor takes the time to explain the tools and all of the little intricacies that are associated with that tool set. I am really enjoying his class and would highly recommend this course !

Instructor Details

Nalini Kanta Jena

When I was 10 years old everybody discover that I am a gifted artist because at a very early age of 10 I was doing clay modeling of indian goddess without taking any training. I was a famous boy in our village and near by area because of my art.

I did that till my tenth grade then I joined B.K college of art and crafts, Bhubaneswar for my BFA degree in Applied art department. I competed that in 2008. Then I started my professional career.

Since then i have never look back, My art has grown mature. I have worked for many educational Institution such as ZICA, Reliance Education and Arena as a 3d Faculty. I have got lots of love from my students from those institution.

Then I have worked in game production as Game Artist at Lakshya Digital and Dhruva Interactive in Bangalore.

Final words....I don't just teach, I believe in converting a student into production ready artist. I know, it's a huge task but I love this task. This is Nalini kanta Jena hope I will teach you soon the beauty of game art creation and make a solid career as an game artist. This vastly growing profession is waiting for you.
Last but not the list DON:T JUST PLAN, TAKE ACTION.

It's hard to understand what the lecturer says.

By David Ibe on 2/16/2019

I'm okay with 3d modelling but a newbie to character modelling,. this wasn't the first course I've taken but this was the most detailed. I love how Nalini Kanta Jena is so detailed with his explanations, he tries to make sure the process really sinks in. The course was simply everything I was looking for packaged in one place for me. Thanks man. You've saved me a whole lotta searching.

Perfect for Beginners! the tutorial covers so much areas...i learnt so much, Modeling in Maya with a lot of tips and tricks as well as Creating Clothes in Marvelous Designer, and Sculpting in ZBrush, even UV-Mapping and Texturing is covered in this tutorial. The Best Part of this tutorial is, that it is so extensive, but never boring. so if you are a Beginner and want to learn first Steps of Modeling and Sculpting, with achieving a good looking character Model...then this course is for you. I think it is even helpful for advanced Users, cause of tips and tricks that may not anyone knows. I will follow more courses from this Tutor in the future. Cause i really want to learn this, and this was so much helpful for me as a Beginner of Modeling and Sculpting.

About a third of the way through the course and I can't say enough good things about it. Nalini is very easy to follow. I'm learning a lot even about things I thought I already knew. Highly recommend his courses. I think I will be taking his courses for a while. Great work Nalini, thank you.

By Vishwadeep Jadeja on 3/20/2018

Haven't yet completed the course but as of now its pretty much understandable the way he teaches. And I assume its the same proper way ahead. My only request is if you can make more such in-depth tutorials in Environments Modelling using ZBrush and other various softwares like Substance, Modo etc will boost you up. Thanks a lot.

I'm french and i will do this review in french because it's easier for me :3 J'ai hésité à me lancer dans ce tuto parce qu'il étais en anglais mais au final c'est un anglais très compréhensible, la personne qui fait le tuto s'exprime très bien et j'ai à peine commencé ce tuto j'en suis encore aux bases de maya mais dès que la personne parle de quelques chose il l'a met en situation pour montrer concrètement ce que ça fait et c'est génial :)

By Juha Andelin on 12/3/2017

An absolute beginner would have extremely hard time with this tutorial, as some of the shortcuts are not explained right off the bat. It get's better later, but at first, this was really difficult even for me to follow along, even though I've had modeling experience before. It's not explaining Maya well enough in the beginning of this tutorial. However this person knows very well what he's doing and I've had to rewind certain parts multiple times to see what actually happened there in that split second.

By Manu Gamer on 11/15/2017
