    Also the Patreon is Always open if you wanna learn how I approach my Art style particularly: www.patreon.com/Stache770 But, If you were looking for specific Course Recommendations on how to get better at Blender I've covered that topic in a previous video. So you can check that out if you want. https://youtu.be/WPxAhr90pdw

    ive been using blender for 3 weeks. Im 24 i never had a passion for school or have found something i want to do, i somehow came to the conclusion that 3D animation is that thing and i feel it so deeply in my core. I understand that the process will be an extremely, steep, uphill battle. But for once in my life that is okay. This video helped me understand the end goal, and i cant wait to watch it again 6 months later, 2 years later, 6 years, etc. Im here for it (and take my like :)

    This actually helps kick my ass in gear. I'm so busy watching tutorials that I don't actually make anything. I think that's the main step, just MAKE things. Doesn't matter how good or bad it is, just doing it will teach you more than just watching the tutorials. Thank you

    Two years ago I tried to start learning Blender but I got stuck watching tutorial videos and would not practice everyday. I'm graduating from college for programming now and it's given me a new appreciation for learning a skill that you get better at by 1% everyday, no instant gratification. You must fall in love with the process. Here I go again. Good luck all!
  • "I'm talking to people who can spend the money, but still choose not to" This had me weak!💀😂😂😂😂
  • @sandy_the_hippy
    As a beginner, I love the insights you provide, as always.
  • @SFE-Viz
    True words. Especially about patience. I think the most misleading thing out there, particularly for beginners, are the "Create something in X amount of minutes" videos, which give the false impression that modelling and creating artworks is a quick thing and doesn't require many hours and days or weeks at all. I think that's a pitfall and grounds for frustration for many aspiring artists.
  • @3DKiw
    So relatable I think every Artist feels the way you elaborate here in this Video 😊
  • @mhollis1989
    On the impatience thing, It's less about making money and more about comparing myself to the pros that look like they spaz their cursors at their starting cube and scare it into something right out of Pixar, while I continue to stumble over the UI.
  • @RTKdarling
    You point about add-ons rings so true to me once a person crosses over from a hobbyist to a professional. The add-on is a fraction of what you should be charging, and could potentially save you days of work, or even be the reason a job is attainable in the first place. Same thing goes for asset libraries like specific plants and cars
  • @dauxpng
    Man as as someone who got burnt out designing in the industry I cant explain how much of a renewed energy your videos have given me, also changing my perspective and enjoying just learning again, although I primarily use C4D I love your channel and what your provide for the community, actually moving to blender because of you. keep it up !!!!!
  • @michaellemon9183
    Really enjoy your work. I've been using Blender off and on for about 2 years and have never tried animation. After watching Celsius a few months ago, I decided to try making a short film myself. I have been at it 8 -10 hrs a day for 2 months. Every day is a new set of problems and frustrations, but it is all part of improving.
  • @TorchOnTarget
    I Just started learning around the half-way point of this year - and I quickly found that just finding videos on the basics pay a lot more, for me personally, than just following those tutorials you mentioned.
  • @zombiedoggie2732
    This is what is helping me on my learning journey. Celebrate the small victories. Did you get an unwrap "Clean" looking on the first try, after having a history of "Messy" looking UVs? That's celebration worthy? Pat yourself on the back. You are tackling something huge. As for assets, if someone gives out a free asset, or a free plug in. be thankful! Let them know you are thankful. A simple "Thankyou" can go a long way.
  • @metahimik
    You're wrong! i am spending 98% of watching tutorials and only 1-2% for actual modelling 😊
  • @maggyfrog
    interesting pieces of advice. i simplified my problem with references by watching more interesting movies (in terms of cinematography and composition) and basically self-teach basic concepts of filmmaking and planning how to sequence shots. i personally find that it's a more holistic approach and the process keeps me engaged because there is no shortage of amazing movies and shows to learn from. occasionally, i would look at the body of artwork by one or two painters, but mostly, i try to learn from movies especially from the legendary auteurs.
  • @mahdimersad8292
    You are so humble. No one else would have made this video. Thank you a lot
  • @robestey5628
    Thank you so much. Love your list. Time to buckle down and get at it.
  • @vtblackonca5573
