TESTIMONIALS
...I was looking for direction and found it on this course. Everything I learned here I'll take for life. Dylan is a great artist and instructor. I'm thankful he took his time and effort to provide us with this valuable material and share his experience. And thankful for Mold3D to make it available for us. Confidence restored, off to new projects!

“I just want to thank Mold3D and Dylan for this class! At first I was hesitating whether to enroll or not, because I'm new to 3D and haven't made characters before (only one head in Zbrush). But Dylan's explanations were so descriptive that I was able to cope with making my first full-body character and make it to the very end, creating a finished posed model that looks appealing! This class also helped me to improve my drawing skills in 2D, because there was a lot of useful information about character design principles in general. It was a huge step forward for me and an amazing experience! Thanks so much!”
