Rating early, will update after completion. Fortunately much better compared to a different course I bought on here. Instructor is very clear, well spoken, and has a talent for teaching. Lessons are structured well. Covers simple topics quickly, and spends more time on more complicated/nuanced topics so far.

Absolutely loved this course!! Abraham did such a wonderful job breaking everything down and making it all easier to understand! I really enjoyed his teaching style and his personality! He holds so much passion for his work and helping educate others and it really shines through in his videos! His course only made me more excited and passionate to learn more and more about the 3D world - And I'm now more eager than ever to bring my ideas to life!

The course is excellent for somebody who until now has had quite some experience with traditional 3D modelling programms such as Cinema4D but as easy I started years ago with C4D, Zbrush is a whole different ballgame, and without a sound training such as this one, I'd be lost. Having said this, I have only one point that could be better: The trainer does a truly great job explaining and he means well, however he speaks too fast. I have the feeling as if somebody is hunting him. I'd wish for that he takes his time and speaks more slowly. Honestly: Nobody is on the run. Less talking speed. Thats my feedback for a fine course. Regards

I really enjoy the lessons and the material, but since English is not my native language, I sometimes have difficulty understanding the words. I turned on subtitles in case I had doubts about words or phrases, but found that they very often do not work correctly. And it would also be very useful to know what keyboard shortcuts the teacher is currently using, this helps not only to keep up with the video but also memorize shortcuts faster.

Wow. This course has been amazing. I am thrilled to say I have finished and got the last render. I want to send a huge thank you to Abraham Leal. The course is very well instructed, it was my first contact with Zbrush, in fact, the 3d modeling world, and I have definitely fallen in love and started an endless road through learning 3D. It covers all the best tools like Retopology, Zremesher, has a professional approach by the end. Plus it´s very fun to learn with Abraham because he is dynamic, creative, and has a very cute accent! ahaha Thank you so much!

I've taken a few zbrush courses before, and this one is proving to be the best! Tools introduced quickly, in a context that makes sense, and explained concisely and cohesively. I hope the rest of the course matches what I've gone through thus far!

He kind of goes to fast. But overall, it's okay. It would be great if he would slow it down a lil, & explain step by step on how to exactly save projects, or where exactly to save projects? I feel that he rushes that part. I've had a hell of a time trying to figure out on how to start a new project after finishing the Skull project. In fact, I think I still saved it wrong? Because when I first open it, it says "project has been changed. Would you like to save changes?" I have to hit cancel or otherwise I will lose the project. Same goes for the octopus one too. And I have no idea where he's saving sea "Octopus_Armuture" at? I He completely lost me at that part. (

Fantastic and comprehensive. Abraham has a clear teaching style, speaks English better than some native speakers I know and clearly knows the inside and outside of ZBrush 2021. I highly recommend checking out this course to de-mystify Zbrush. I can finally see myself working through my apprehension with Mr. Leal as an instructor. Great stuff.

When I took this course, I doubted whether the content of the course was good because the number of people taking it is very small. I have taken many courses on Udemy, but this course is one of the best courses I have taken. Thank you very much for offering us such a beautiful course.
By Anthony Gagnon on 1/9/2021
What is great about this course is it gets you involved in fun projects much faster than other courses, which helps you learn the software better because you are more engaged in the content. Instead of wasting hours talking about features and demonstrating them, you learn them in a practical way as they apply to each project and that helps with your overall understanding of the software.
