I picked up blender 6 months ago, and most tutorial videos I watched weren’t really helping. That’s until I found this guy! He does an amazing job explaining and anyone can understand without feeling overwhelmed. Dude you are awesome, !

[KITCINDIA]

The way you explain is extremely beginner friendly. TO the point, precise and easy to understand. Bring more tutorials on hard surface modelling and product visualization. Great content.

[anindyaroythetechmaster]

Do you know you are considered one of the biggest godot channels? Plz resume your godot tutorials man we all love it

[canopus-lab]

Thank you, Colin, you are one of the best Blender teachers, I’ve learned a lot from you.

[chucksaduck]

You are a terrific teacher, I will be watching your videos a few times each to take it all in, thank you so much

[mediaman]

I like the way you go over everything in detail with example scenarios.. very thorough!!

[burhanuddin]

I've just started learning blender and was really frustrated and pulling my hair out all the time while i was watching the "DONUT MAKER". I just hate that guy now the moment i stumbled upon your channel, it's like i was in the desert thirsty and suddenly someone gave me a chilled water bottle. That's kind of the satisfaction that I'm getting after coming here from watching the "DONUT MAKER" for the last 3 days😂. Just THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Smooth, quick, friendly and straight to the point. No distraction, no jumping from one subject to the next without covering the previous one, no info overflow in rapid succession which gives you time to pause, experiment and follow. The familiar voice is an added bonus.

You got yourself a subscriber, sir. And if I see myself even more daring after this tutorial, I might go ahead and try Godot. Thank you so much for putting the time and effort into these vids.

[TheSencri]

Good and in great detail. I had some fun with blender a while ago, but that was 6-8 years ago. Made some shots and used it for some projects. Decided to start learning from scratch and the tutorial is perfect. Absolutely amazing man.

[perkonsstudio]

my first blender teacher, doesnt matter what im doing im always back to your chanel

[Raformatico]

I can't wait for the next one! Thanks!!!

[bunderlemu]

I haven't used Blender for years. Recently, I decided to pick it up again, and I was thoroughly confused with its new UI. Your video is very helpful! Thank you!

[hgranat]

Thank you very much for this Colin! Great teaching

[craigvgodsman]

Thank you for the content. I'm new to Blender and I will definitely be using your tips, tricks and advice.

[granav]

Love your tutorials! Thank you so much!!!

[kschanaman]

Thank you SO MUCH. Blender has changed so much and I was having issues with your older video tutorials.

You older videos covered so much. But since Blender has progressed so fast... one has to really dig elsewhere to understand what you did back then.

[SamB]

Wow, so many amazing features. I will have to watch this video about fifty times before I remember everything. 😁

[Meowmeowmaking]

thank you Colin ^^i get lots of benefits with your channel

[Purana-Pappi]

Really it's a amazing video the way you explain every details 🔥

[asani_]
