Joakim Tornhill

In general it's a good course, I can say I now have a way better understanding of how to use nodes and create materials/textures. Joakim is very knowledgable and gives detailed explanations both during the course and the Q&A section. However, sometimes I really struggled to follow his way of reasoning and had to rewatch the video several times to understand the logic behind the set of nodes used. Sometimes things are explained in big detail but sometimes they are just thrown there, and I personally find more useful to really understand why a specific setup is used for creating something, rather than knowing many different ways of doing the same thing, but without a proper understanding.
