The weekly live sessions were a great help!
"In 2023, I took the Mentorship to improve my skills in hard surface modeling. Before joining, one of my biggest issues was having good clean topology and figuring out how to reroute edges. The weekly live sessions were a great help, as I could ask JL about issues I was having, and he would demonstrate how to fix them. Another benefit of the live sessions is learning from other students and making new connections. I would highly recommend the 3D Beast Academy mentorship for anyone struggling with hard surface modeling, topology, UVs, etc."

"When I enrolled in 3D Beast Academy, it was good for me to memorize a clean workflow, a clean approach to complex shapes, how to break them down. It was a nice and clean way to approach 3d modeling that was easy to understand."
