First, there was no substantial knowledge of Blender...only some individual YouTube Tutorials.
This seems to me like a puzzle with a lot of tiles. Sure, each tile made sense, but a complete "picture" as fundament was not given.
Now with the "Blender 2.8 Launch Pad" from CGBoost there is a leading light for me in the darkness.
Four main reasons that convince me of this course:
1. The course can be completed even in the most remote corners of the world thanks to the download option - only electricity is of course the prerequisite :)
2. Each individual lesson is self-contained and can therefore be seen again from the context.
3. The course is structured logically from start to finish: first the necessary details of using Blender and then their implementation in a project.
4. For each individual part of the course there is a contact option for any questions.
As a whole, the course is didactically well-structured thanks to its graphics (building a house as a starting point to model various parts).
I think the price is absolutely justified. After all, I get something for it and can even keep it on my computer.
Criticism? The only thing that struck me is that you, Zach, say "Szee-Axis" instead of "Zet-Axis"… ;)

Just past the 60% completion and can already see where this is heading...
This course has literally taken my blender learning from zero to hero. It has giving me so much confidence in the whole 3D world.
I now dare and do my own models, scenes and renders without scavenging YouTube for every thing I wanted to do.
The course covered everything you need to know and with the extra addition of the UV and texturing tutorials, you are set up for success.
Everything is nicely presented and structured, so I can always go back to see a specific topic in the future when needed… Thank you CG BOOST, Zach and team for providing this rich full experience..
Shame there is no more extra stars than 5...

I bought this course specifically for the texture painting and baking sections, and it did not disappoint me.
This course will teach you everything you need to know to start making models, from the modeling portion to uploading it to a 3D model selling website. I would like to see a comprehensive guide to making models for a game engine, going more into how to reduce file sizes to be more optimized and how to work with really low-poly objects to make them look appealing. Thanks for the tutorial and I hope you make more of them like this.

What Zach provides in this course is all you need to understand the basics of Blender and 3D in general. Short simple to understand lessons and with added UV and Texturing basics this is the best course to have.

Being a 3D artist in video games with around 10 years of industry experience I might have not really been the intended target audience, but I was looking for learning resources that would allow me to smoothly transition to Blender without going through thousands of random tutorials on the internet.
I have to say this Launch Pad course was perfect in that regard.
You will be guided through all chapters in a very structured way with custom-built example scenes that are easy to follow.
The whole course serves as a fantastic resource to look things up later and I very much appreciate the overall presentation quality.
Fantastic for absolute beginners or people transitioning over like I did.

I've been stressed by numerous videos on YouTube. CG Boost offers a system of learning step by step, giving us a clear, easy to digesting way to discover Blender. Of course Zach teaching is very fun, so you won't feel stupid while problems showing up. He is not only interesting, but also prepare troubleshooting for each chapter!
I start my journey on Blender, but was not familiar with it, and I don't want to start from making many machines (I will still practice them cuz they are a nice solution of understanding Blenders various functions). Zach is the best teacher for every beginner.
I've already bought other lessons, and I can't wait to start after Blender Launch Pad!
