Student Review

Oliver

"This course was incredible! I had been teaching myself character art for a year just from tutorials I found on YouTube, and had definitely hit a wall in terms of progress.

Taking this course was a huge turning point for me. The live feedback from Ackeem was incredibly helpful and insightful, and he was very quick to respond in the course Discord when I had a question or needed critique in between classes.

I feel much more confident in my ability to make a character in a game pipeline now at the end of it."

Todd

"I took this class and can tell you that Ackeem is an awesome instructor and you will learn a ton. I 100% recommend this class."

Christopher

"The course was very well taught and the Instructor was very approachable in how they presented the methods. Despite my use of different programs (Blender in place of Maya) I was able to adapt the methods used to my programs well enough.

This was my first time creating such a high detail product, and my first time utilizing texturing programs. I feel well taught and capable of reproducing the steps on my own for future products."

Gaëtan

"The course was great and Ackeem was an amazing teacher. I highly recommend this course."

Willis

"This course was great! As someone coming from a background in miniatures I found the instructor and the lecture videos taught me what I needed to know to extend my skills into character art."
