Seeing Dikko this enthusiastic in the intro brings me almost as much joy as the comeback of my favorite tutorial series! Thank you!!

[imanijones]

Thank you SOOOO much not only for a new modeling series, but for not putting music over the whole damn thing!!!! With the long form classroom content, being able to play your own music is fucking critical!! Biig ups biig ^-^

OMGGG I literally was just on your channel yesterday thinking "His videos are so good, I wish he did a modeling course". Notifications turned on for sure!

[StriderWolf]

Another kick ass tutorial indeed. Loved your last one and I’ll love this one more. You’ve taught me so much already. I was actually gonna go back to your old retopo vid for a project I’m working on.

I've wanted to learn blender forever but the idea of juggling so many skills and spending years working on them is kinda daunting. Nevertheless giving it my best shot and very appreciative that resources such as this exist, so thanks a ton!

Great video! Appreciated the comments about character design for third person games, I will admit I hadn’t really thought about spending extra time on the back of the character. Can’t wait for the next video!

always excited to see what you create. great tutorial

[WaterShowsProd]

Great! Another kickass modelling series! I can see from the introduction that being a father is having a positive effect on you.

Loved your original series for modelling for animation from a few years back and was recently thinking about working through it again for practice and then i saw this pop up.
I think I'll follow along to this one instead, be really cool to get an updated take on this considering how much you've probably learnt and improved over the last few years!!
Very excited, thanks again for doing these!!

[Cosmic_Commentary]

I've been using your channel for YEARS to create my vtuber model... I can say for sure that with out you. My latest model that's coming out soon would not be as amazing as it is without your tips and tricks! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge <3
