I have tried over a few years to get started with Blender, having spent most of my design life in After Effects and some other 3D software programs. Each time, the program seemed overwhelming and too difficult. After trying some YouTube tutorials, CG Boost's 2.8 Launch Pad course was recommended.
Zach's launch pad course is brilliant. There is plenty of attention to detail, but without being cumbersome or too much to understand. All the information is clear and well-thought-out, whilst still being able to put his teaching into context with the design project he uses in the course. Within no time I found myself finally managing the navigation, understanding the fundamentals and even beginning to pre-empt the tools and paths needed to design in Blender. It's a great course length, giving you ample time to get used to the program as well as gain a little pride as your design starts to take shape. By the time the course was over I felt more than capable of tackling some of the next steps in 3D design in Blender.
Thanks Zach - a great course, taught well.
