I've also been 6 years into Blender and I created things I didn't expect I was able to do back then, and the best thing I get from this journey is that you never stop learning and discovering new things or ways to do 3D stuffs with Blender. I discovered your youtube channel a year ago when I started my first job at a big company and your tutorials helped me a lot to achieve nice renders that meet the expectations the company had.

This video is a masterpiece-it perfectly captures what so many of us go through! I started using Blender back in 2018, and between then and now, I've quit Blender at least 1-2 times per year. It wasn’t until mid-2023 that I finally committed to taking it seriously again. I used to compare myself to younger people. +14years old boys making amazing stuff. While I felt old and unskilled at 22. Every time I came back to Blender after months or even a year, I’d think, “Why did I quit? If I had just stuck with it, I’d be so much better by now.” It was a frustrating cycle, worsened by burnout and creative blocks, not knowing what to work on next. Now, I’m still working on projects, and I’m happy. I’ve finally decided that this is truly what I love doing Sorry for the long post lol

Fell in love with 3d at first sight but since then had some longer breaks from blender. Now, I'm working full time in blender, started small business and I'm loving every minute of it! Your tutorials also helped me to get where I am today so thank you very much and keep up doing what you're doing!

Your story is so relatable. I started learning blender in 2019. I did few lectures from a udemy course then quit. Then I picked it up in 2023 & quit in few months. This year though I got myself a live tutor. So each weekend I had to complete my assignment in order to avoid the awkward confrontation with the tutor. This small change gave me extra motivation to even learn the stuff that's not in the course from yt to showcase it in the live class & shine out amongst pears. You need a platform where you have to put you work into after completion or else there is no end motive to complete your work. Let it be competitions, social media or a live class, you need some platform where your work ends up & there's people who gonaa see it. The fear of embarrassment pushes you to come out of your comfort zone.

Kaizen, I dont think this video will get enough attention that it needs and for the work you put into it. I wasn't thinking that a lot of your journey was both major ups and downs. Almost shocked me. I say almost because I've heard it time and again about people trying to get over mountains for what they want to accomplish and it taking a toll on them. So thank you for making this video to put in my perspective that anything I will go through in my learning and growth in the digital art world will not be new to anybody or exclusive to just my struggle.

This video is relatable. I am just starting blender and already love it. But when I first tried it I was so overwhelmed with all the key shortcuts and stuff and decided to stop trying it. But now I am trying it again and following some good tutorials and I think a big piece of advice for if you want to learn blender is to remember that you don’t need to learn every key, shortcut, and option, To make something.

I started and stopped Blender so many times. I come from the parametric modeling world, Inventor, Solidworks, Pro-E, Fusion. I have always wanted to get into 3D animation and modeling. Ironically that’s how I fell into the career that I’m in. I took courses because they offered Maya, 3DS but the instructor would basically show us how to make and animate a ball or bowling pin, then move on to the software that he really knew. I was so frustrated with that and went on into some engineering courses and fell into Inventor. I love it, but I still want to learn Blender. I now have children and I want to learn and teach them. Thank you for sharing your progression, I will use your advice and help my children with their path.

Amazing video honestly, I never even thought of taking the "art way" as a job even though many people have told me that I am very talented at it. Simply because I was afraid that it wouldn't work out and that I'd get burnt out (obviously nobody wants to waste years of their life doing something to just fail at it and possibly struggle with money). You've made me realize that I can do another job which is another hobby of mine and is a little bit more guaranteed whilst still not giving up on the art, whether its 3d or 2d, that im allowed to fail or take breaks and that's okay. Thank you, I look foward to seeing your process and mine over the years that's next to come.

I found my niche in blender by accident, I have the same clients & I don't take on new ones. I earn a pretty good living at it, yes my work is repetitious & modeling basically the same thing day after day is not for everyone but it gives me time to explore all the features blender has to offer. I started my drawing career with a drawing board (complete with pantagraph rules), pencil & paper so going to blender was no easy feat & I gave up many times. I guess if you're determined enough the rewards will come. I'm glad you didn't give up, you're an exceptional 3d creator. All the best from Australia 👍🏼🦘

I felt in love with blender, now 5 years of slow progress, but this is the year where I am learning all the basics like I should have done in the first place. At least I know the shortcuts it is a big advantage.

I've spend and still spending several hours in my most recent projects. From one side, I feel like I'm doing enough, but on the other hand, I feel frustrated and demotivated since every single chance of getting coding job has been refused. Still, trying to take it from more positive perspective that it will arrive with more time and passion Invested.

I now can do stuffs i could only dream of back then. now i know that my skill is no where near to be a professional artist, but i like to think im half way there. This journey with Blender is going amazingly right now. Have no plan to off the train. Because the train is with full of amazing 3d artists content creators like you and of course (blender guru). Blender community is one of the best community i have ever seen, and im thankfull to be in. So many amazing contents,courses, tutorials are here totally free. Everyone loves to share their knowledge. Its fun to be in the train, why would i want to get of. And blender is always new with those updates, always new things to learn. i got full time 3d job while only having knowledge on blender. Its true that most places only see the result, and knowing that you can get it done, they most likely hire you too.

I can confirm that having an IRL job is the biggest obstacle. For KaIzen, the breakthrough happened when he switched to working from home. In my case it was the other way around - I was doing great progress in Blender until I've got my full time job. Now I struggle to get anything done in 3D. Don't buy into the illusion that you can do a full time IRL job and still have enough energy and time to perfect your Blender skills. Especially if you're no longer in your early 20s.

You're right; having a job and other obligations are a major roadblock. For me I did actually have a 4 day a week job at the time as an Art Director. I worked from home, but I still worked. I did Blender in my free time and I made videos in that same free time. I will say not having a kid or many other obligations at that time allowed me enough time to spend it on this journey. Nonetheless it was tough trying to do all this while also working and maintaining a social life. I guess the younger you are, the less obligations you have and the more time you have available; the easier it is to get into things. So starting on early is definitely a big plus!

Every time you see these videos of people drawing or skulpting or any other arts and think "Ey thats pretty cool, why don't I try that?". And then you see in their bio or in the vid "Draws/etc. since 6/10/since I was little" and you immediately don't even want to start

Yeah it's daunting. I remember well all the 'kids' who already had 5-10 years of 3D under their belts when I started out. I felt like I could never win. But I've managed to do it anyways. Maybe not the way I originally set out to, but still I did it!

Вивчаю Блендер уже рік, дуже ним задоволений, бачу своє майбутнє лише в 3Д 😊 Але за цей рік будо кілька великих перерв, пов'язаних з школою, і все доводилося повторяти з початку. Покищо, можу зробити не важку модельку, але не здаюся. Я вважаю, що вивчив лише основи і то не всі, попереду ще багато роботи Незвично бачити історії про "став спеціалістом за пів року", можу догадатись, що або вони дуже наполеглеві, або мають багато вільного часу, що точно не про мене. Дякую, ви додали мені впевненості в собі, бо я завищував очікування за себе

This is beyond amazing I have a very low end laptop working with blender for some years now and not enough money to buy a better one This really slowed down my progress over time and makes me so sad that even the last two blender updates I cannot update because my system wasn't good enough to carry the graphics... I am currently working with blender 4.0 and i started with blender 2.9 I won't back down and would keep on growing and won't stop because this is motivating enough When i look back at my renders and my current renders i can't help but praise how my crappy laptop was able to achieve such amazing renders (considering the growthand improvement) and makes me want to keep growing with that same laptop Will i continue with the laptop? No because it's slowing down my progress and i cannot do big dream jobs because of this, but it can help me get jobs that would pay me some small money to grow and have that amount to buy that system to work perfectly on blender I must say, the journey built me well and I'm proud to be part of the community! I have to ask Those challanges you talked about are on art station? Because i see People talk about those challanges and i have been asking around where to find them fir 3D artists because it would help me stay in track with blender definitely

I also started blender 6 years ago on a 7th gen i3 and no GPU, and I think I can do most things apart from texturing, I just start losing my mind when it comes to texturing. I also gave up for months on end and went to play video games, now I quite enjoy blender.

I started Blender in 2019 and dove right into the legendary Donut tutorial! After that I looked around and went through more tutorials, then more and more and I was stuck in tutorial hell and I realised I couldn't create without them. I told a friend who has been doing 3D longer than me and he asked me to make an ice cream shop with pink walls and white bricks and I did! He gave me feedback and I was so proud of myself because it felt like I was standing still for so long that I couldn't create on my own. in 2023 I got to a point with Blender where I wanted to share my knowledge and stalked Reddit for hours checking out people's help requests on the Blender sub and applying my knowledge to help them! fast forward a year and I now teach Blender to 3 people and have made friends because of it! I'm thinking of making my own Yt channel and have been tossing the thought around for months. But after seeing this I think I will record my first video this weekend! Thanks for all of the tutorials over the years Kaizen, you have pushed me to learn more aspects of Blender that I didn't know existed or never put much thought into. Never stop creating brother

With the help of good folk like Kaizen, i moved quickly into animation. Big time 'imposter syndrome', but I managed to get some good gigs and even started my own animation channel for kids. Now, if I can just get faster so KZbin will count my view hours so I get monetized. Continual self-improvement is the name of the game.

I just started learning blender a week ago because I finally want to make 3D Animations. My CAD Programs (Fusion 360 and Solid Edge 2024) are great, but they only come with mediocre rendering tools. The CAD Tools are great, especially when trying to simulate things in Ansys Discovery/Fluent, but I have never had the chance to visualize all the stuff I created. Now I'm 14 and I really hope that I will be able to use Blender for all kinds of 3D Animations. Thank you soooooo much for all of your tutorials videos !!!

Sometimes having long breaks (few months) from a program can give you new insights when picking it up again, or motivation to learn a technique you first didn't want to put effort into.

this is the first video ive watched of yours, i checked your channel and saw that you dont upload a whole lot. with your subscriber base you should really be posting at least weekly to make the most of it, i have a couple suggestions for you if you are stuck in some way. first suggestion is to post more shorts about blender. a lot of people like to search certain questions about blender or 3d rendering on youtube and the first thing that comes up a lot is the youtube shorts. i always gravitate towards them because they are easy to click on and are usually faster than regular youtube videos. you could make shorts saying "instead of doing this common new 3d rendering mistake do this!" or tips and tricks for 3d modeling or rendering. make youtube videos of you creating fun 3d assets and then make a follow up video on how to render the object in a scene. make videos on how to create various materials on a single object using nodes or how to start animating in blender with the 3d objects. a lot of these video ideas will help both you and the viewer. hoping to see more content released soon.

I felt same as you I wasted more than 4 years watching movies and scrolling online playing video games, I'm mean I have addicted to It like I uninstall It and now I'm done now I can learn 3d or something productive and become something I always dreamt of but no again I'm back to where I was downloading game again and I got more addict to it like I was playing it for whole day no sleep no food or anything and I even suffer from overthinking, depression and anxiety and I even tried to change my dream to become something else. But its not easy I'm still trying and watching videos online but at some point I'm scared I feel I would waste my life doing something else which I hate doing so I have decided to give it a try once again no matter what I wont stop trying till my dream come true 😇🙂
