i feel like what's missing from what people are taking from this, is that this is a tremendously great example of discipline. each day was spent on learning a task within a reasonable time frame. reasonable goals were set and look at how much was achieved. trying to do too much all at once is what's leading people into feeling discouraged. instead of modeling an entire car, maybe just start by modeling a wheel. it's important to understand how to be fair to yourself by not placing yourself under so much stress right off in the beginning. just do a little thing each day in blender and stop. give yourself permission to pat yourself on the back once in awhile for doing something in 3d (or any art). soon enough you'll be doing much, much more

[@gravitacion7412]

I agree with this comment. The main point of this video is that with daily simple habits and discipline, you can do whatever you want. What you do and do not do daily impacts yourself in the long run.

[@DBGRNYC]

Thank you for taking the time to write out this very eloquently drafted piece of advice. As someone who's always in his head on what to learn, how long it'll take to learn and if I'm even going to be good at it, you really gave out an impactful bit of advice that helps change my perspective on how I should be tackling any goals I set as I continue to search for a skill to excel in.

Really impressive, I've Been doing 3D for about 16 years, and I can say that your progress is really amazing, considering it took you 30 days to learn how to model. 3D is not that hard really, you just need to learn basic tools that you'll be using them over and over. After that if you want to improve further you need to set more difficult challanges. My advice would be not to get too comfortable with the Lowpoly art style, but to experiment with more art styles, that will open more opportunities later for you. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with the Lowpoly art style, and for example realism is not the only alternative, but you have so many options to make a personal artstyle and the sooner you'll start to look for it, the further it will take you. Just my 2 cents, hope it's helpful. :)

[@HendyAugust]

Thank you so much for your kind words, Laurynas :) it's great to hear such feedback from someone experienced. I completely agree with you. There's sooo many art styles in 3D to explore, but, low poly is the style that made me learn 3D in the first place, so I might stick with the low poly style for a while :) but, in the future, i will definitely explore more and more 3d art styles :) Thank you again, Laurynas, i really appreciate your feedback...

work at your own pace, but the people in blender community want to help and while its daunting, just take little steps, grant is great and there are many others like him who can help you along, but again, learn the blender way and at your own pace, repetition helps and come back to it again if its overwhelming step back and look at it with fresh eyes, start a project again if it feels like you're stuck, it will reinforce what you know and fill in the gaps and often is easier than trying to fix something halfway through and get discouraged. your pace, pause the video, rewind, redo ;o) just enjoy, that is the blender experience, joy of doing!

Sorry to hear it :( you might still be able to use it for practice the basic until you get a higher specs? low poly might not need too high specs (check out my other video in this channel for "Can low spec laptop runs blender and create a 3D scene" and see if your laptop better than mine? for comparison :) )

I learned blender 2.79 and looks like I have wasted my time, that is a whole new thing I am seeing

[@HendyAugust]

It's true that 2.8 is completely different looks from 2.79, but i don't think you wasted time with your experience. Although the viewport is different, the most important is that you already have experience with how it work. I believe you will get used to the new look in no time :)

[@inconsequential7673]

I'm using 2.79 because that's the most recent version I can run. I'm rendering an animation as I write this. It's my first serious attempt at actually completing a project, and I HOPE it will be my first upload. Blender is an amazing resource - not just because it's free, but because it's always getting better. Great video! Shows the value of perseverance and dedication. All the best!
