There is a lot of good information in this course. We see the instructor’s workflow from Blender to Quixel to Unreal. The students who are already familiar with this type of work in other programs but want to transfer their skills to Blender, Quixel, and Unreal, will benefit the most. This is not a course for beginners but even so, for intermediate students the instructor covers the material too quickly. Often there is no opportunity to visualize his work from multiple angles in Blender, making very difficult to reproduce the models that he creates. Eventually, after a few lectures I gave up trying to replicate the results and simply watched the lectures. The lectures are given at a fast pace throughout the course. I would have preferred the course to have been lengthened by a few hours for the instructor to elaborate more on the topics covered and give us a chance to reproduce his work. Overall, I found this course useful.

I have learnt so much from this tutorial, especially in modelling even if I was learning it 2 years ago. One of the best explanations of UV mapping and Normal baking I have ever heard. He is very precise. I am still just at the end of modelling.

It was great to learn the workflow of modeling, UV development, texturing, and importing into Unreal Enginge.

Great course. Only comment would be that we need resources of the assets created by the teacher. My blender got an unfixable bug towards the end and I lost everything. The teachers Resources would have been great to have other wise 10/10 course
