What people are saying

3ds max

I am learning to use blender for the first time after my 3ds max student licence has just run out.

I'm like an hour in and already know 3DS Max, so am mostly using this to learn Blender tools.

I have previous knowledge on modeling and animating but I had learned everything on 3DS Max.

Very great cousre, even though I have some good experince with 3D modelling in 3Ds max.

About 10 years ago I did a 1 year intensive 3D animation program in college where they used 3DS max.

As a long time user of 3DS Max with some experience in Maya; I found Ben's and Mikey's teaching of Blender straight forward, informative and very student friendly.

I've been learning 3ds Max for over a year and this was a smooth transition into Blender.

He estudiado 3ds Max durante más de un año y la transición a Blender ha sido sencilla.

I have a bit of experience working with Maya and 3Ds Max but was looking for something that could get me going with Blender as it is quite different from other 3D modeling applications.

or 3dS Max.

I have used 3DS Max before, but I am switching to Blender for my current project.

This is my first attempt at 3D modeling (besides 3DS max, which I had to take as part of a university course for designing a mobile 3D application - which I opted out of and used Blender instead, thanks in a massive part to you guys), and I have to say - I'm shocked I haven't discovered this art-form sooner.

What this tutorial does do well however is teaching you how to use the software which is what i came here for not the modeling method cuz i already an experience 3ds max user who already noe 3d modeling and character rigging and was just looking into learning other 3d programs.

As someone migrating from 3DS Max to Blender it is a little OTT.

well worth the money

Very well layed out course, covers all aspects and well worth the money!

Well worth the money and time.

This course was well worth the money ^w^ Great material so far (30% of lectures done) and I am sure that the rest of the course will be as well.

well worth the money!

This certainly beats YouTube tutorials (albeit, they're great to compliment this course) and was well worth the money.

top notch

High energy and fun instructor From someone who learned Maya in an actual College Degree Computer Science program and their tutorials, coming to this and seeing that this tutorial is far superior, the software is far superior, the all around teaching is top notch.

It is well thought, and well executed, resulting in top notch instruction!

Top notch stuff, hats off, claps all around.

Really top notch course.

With the help of Michael's guidance and attention to detail, plus the top notch production, this course knocks down walls and opens up a whole new world.

Top notch tutorial :) Very complete course, with a lot of information about the software and how to use it.

In all, I would definitely recommend buying this course if you want to learn 3D modelling, the quality of the teaching is top notch.

I have other courses from Ben and crew and the quality of these courses are top notch.

This course is top notch, and these instructors care.

Nevertheless, a top notch course.

messing around with blender

I started messing around with Blender 3 or more years ago but I really learned very little compared to what I learned in this course.

I've been casually messing around with Blender for several years, so I already knew a lot of the material, but this course really helped in putting it all together and understanding how the various systems work together.

I've been messing around with Blender for a couple of years, off and on, but I finally decided to get serious.

I had already been messing around with Blender and know a lot of what is being done so far.

Had been messing around with Blender on and off for a couple of years - but never really got to grips with the multiple menu screens.

I am currently past beginner stage because I started messing around with blender by myself.

never used blender before

Never used Blender before.

I have never used blender before taking this course, and I thought it was quite hard to grasp on my own.

The instructors give very clear, thorough instructions so that even someone who has never used blender before would be able to learn from this course.

I really love this course, I've never used blender before however after a few lessons felt like I could create a 3D model.

I have really enjoyed this course so far and I have learnt so much just in section 1 (though I would rate it a full five stars if they'd include a recap option that just briefly touches on what you've learnt so far before entering another video), already, I have been able to follow some other online tutorials just from what I've learnt when it comes to the tools and I'd never used blender before now.

es un curso

Al principio era un poco lento pero es un curso muy completo, parece que abarca la mayoría de las funciones de Blender.

/ Es un curso realmente interesante y completo.

Ya me he acostumbrado a algunos comandos y entiendo mejor la interfaz, es un curso muy útil para los que están iniciando como yo, aún me falta mucho por aprender así que pienso también les será útil a los que llevan más experiencia.

Por que al parecer es un curso muy completo que abarca muchos aspectos del modelado 3d As I already had some experience with Blender I came to this course to learn how to master simple polygon modeling for rapid concept prototyping.

Great course.. Es un curso muy completo y esta bastante bien explicado.

es un curso completísimo, con he he aprendido varios de los principios de modelado en blender, la comunidad detrás del curso es asombrosa también, lo cual ayuda a tener un desarrollo constante y criticas de los trabajos.

School should be like this....:) Al parecer es un curso muy completo, lastima que no tiene subtitulos en español!

low poly models

It is very helpful I came here hoping to learn just the very basics of blender to make low poly models at best, as my main focus is to become an independent game developer through learning coding and game design in of itself, but as of writing this review I have completed 40% of the course and I have learned enough about the tools provided by Blender that I am fluently comfortable using them and have enough experience to make reasonably good looking models.

I already learned a lot to be able to model/modify my own low poly models, with an effective workflow, understanding of best pratices and being fluent in blender's shortcuts :-) Michael and Ben are very good teachers and their Blender journey is a delight.

Has really helped me with navigating Blender and was able to create a lot of basic low poly models very quickly, even though i am only a beginner to Blender.

I've got no experience in modelling so my goal was to be able to make some low poly models which I feel like I'm able to now.

blown away by

I'm blown away by the quality and sheer volume of content A very professional, well presented and easy to follow course presented by two very good trainers who are expert in their subject matter.

I went into this course expecting Michael to teach me the basics of modeling in Blender but I am absolutely blown away by how many subjects are discussed and explained.

This is the first time I've actually been blown away by just how much content there actually is.

SO far, I am blown away by the structure of the course.
