This course will teach you the basics and give you a full workflow from blender to engine. I'm already quite familiar with blender and unity so i didnt do the unity/unreal/texturing/game asset creation sections. I was only interested in the character creation and animation sections (specifically creating animations and exporting them to unity) but I watched the whole thing anyway. Not a bad course a little rough around the edges but nothing major :)

By Michael Peart on 6/23/2025

The instructor has a tendency to skip steps, assuming the student knows what he's thinking. This is a very complicated tutorial and not for the new student. I have nearly 100 hundred hours of experience and I'm having to constantly review the material to follow along. If I were an instructor, I would create the character dozens of times to create a smooth flow and eliminate my mistakes. It's frustrating as a student to work through the tutorial, including the mistakes and having to go back and redo the work.

Clearly explains what he's doing. Mouse / Key Presses displayed ABOVE the captions (THANK YOU) Comments match with current action.

This course was exactly what I needed to transition from working exclusively in 2D into 3D. The instructor was clear and detailed. I really appreciated that he offered lectures on how to import your character into Unreal and Unity. I am familiar with Unity but this was my first experience with Unreal and it opened my eyes to the workflow and some differences between the two. I highly recommend. I will be looking into his other courses to further my knowledge in game development.

By John Choi on 6/26/2024

Wow, great intro on the entier pipeline of making a character in Blender and loading it into BOTH Unreal and Unity! Automatic rigging was kind of whack, and it would have been nice to see the full manual rig process in Blender, but I ended up using Mixamo instead for the automatic rig and it worked great. THIS COURSE WAS MONEY WELL SPENT!

By M. Duane Forkner on 12/10/2023

Definitely a great video... the repetetive use of the hot keys during the sculpting process is already increasing my speed in using the tool and we all learn quickly how monumental the time factor in good 3d and game design can be.

By Nelson 3D on 10/20/2023

If anybody is asking how to make a great course on Blender, watch this out. This course is made by someone who knows the software very well and wants to teach the best techniques in an objective and clear way. He also gives us the files to learn from and study. He answers all the questions quickly. And covers many subjects, not only one or two. Great course. Hope he makes more.

By Joe Burns on 9/8/2023

Very good course and learning a lot! Only thing is sometimes though I need to listen carefully to instructor as some words are pronounced a little differently. Again, learning lots of good stuff with animation.

By Stephen Orlando on 8/31/2023

I think this course requires the student to be very comfortable with Blender to follow along. The teacher tends to change tools without any notice. Changing from vertex to edge mode as one example and making several adjustments when you realize your outcome is very different then his. Says remove this, when he means Dissolve edge. Causing rewind and searching for a quick mouse click that was not called out. You need to run at 50% playback. There is a lot of material to cover I hope his delivery improves. If I knew all this I wouldn't have bought the course.

By Mykola Sirivets on 8/13/2023

Вцілому я задоволений. Курс ідеально зайде людям, які уже мають базові навички роботи з blender і хочуть далі рухатись в напрямку геймдева та анімації персонажів. В частині про модельовання буде багато '' бази'' яка знадобиться всім і кожному для побудови правильної топології. Це значно полегшить життя під подальшої роботи з рігом та анімацією. Автор молодець, якість подачі матеріалу на висоті. тому якщо ви вагаєтесь купувати цей курс чи ні, то можете бути спокійні. Воно того варте ;)
