🌟 Overall Course Review

Rating: 3.95/5

Pros:

  • The course has received generally positive feedback from recent reviewers, with several mentioning it as a "Good job" and expressing satisfaction with the content, especially for those who were already familiar with the basics of 3D Coat. (Review 1, Review 2)
  • The course is praised for its coverage of common features used for character work, which is appreciated by users looking to expand their skill set in this area. (Review 3)
  • Some users found the course to be a significant improvement from the initial sections and have expressed that despite some initial confusion, they were able to learn and create satisfying results with their sculpting. (Review 4, Review 6)
  • The course has been described as "Fantastic" by one user who came into the course with basic knowledge of 3D Coat and was surprised by the quality of their work after completing the course. (Review 5)
  • The course is recommended for those interested in learning 3D Coat, with a note to be patient and attentive. (Review 9)

Cons:

  • Several reviewers were confused by the instructor's rapid movement of the cursor, which made it difficult to follow along, particularly for beginners. (Review 7, Review 10)
  • There is a common sentiment that the course lacks a comprehensive explanation of the software, with many users feeling that it skims over important topics such as industry practices, techniques, Mesh Maps, Layers system, and other fundamental aspects. (Review 8, Review 12)
  • The course's title, "Complete Guide to 3D Coat," is considered misleading because it does not provide a complete guide for beginners. (Review 11)
  • Some users reported technical issues, like the instructor not turning on symmetry when starting a sculpt and forgetting to use symmetry copy to correct his mistake, which points to a lack of preparation or scripting on the part of the instructor. (Review 13)
  • The course is criticized for its speed, resembling a time-lapse video without proper editing before uploading, and it is noted that there seem to be no other good 3D Coat tutorials available. (Review 14)
  • The instruction on specific features, such as how to perform booleans in the sculping room using imported objects instead of default primitives, was deemed insufficient. (Review 16)
  • Some users are dissatisfied with the course's quality, pointing out mistakes and the lack of a structured approach in teaching the software. (Review 15, Review 17)

Additional Notes:

  • The course might benefit from including a cursor indicator or slowing down the pace during tool selection, especially in the early stages, to help new users follow along better.
  • It is recommended that future courses include comprehensive explanations of all the tools and features within 3D Coat, with a clear progression from basic to advanced techniques.
  • While some aspects of the course are commendable, it is clear that there is room for improvement in terms of instruction clarity, pacing, and technical editing.
  • The course may appeal more to those who already have some experience with 3D Coat and are looking to refine their skills rather than complete beginners seeking a comprehensive introduction to the software.

In conclusion, while there are positive aspects to this course, it is essential for future iterations to address the issues of pacing, technical clarity, and the depth of instruction to better serve both novice users and those looking to deepen their understanding of 3D Coat.
