Thanks a lot as always, guys! 😀
So now that I’ve basically wrapped up the mesh modeling fundamentals, my plan is to do a 30-object practice challenge to really build confidence. After that, the next part of the core course is sculpting.
My question is: do you think I should jump into the sculpting section after finishing those 30 objects, even if I don’t yet feel fully confident with modeling? Or would it be smarter to keep pushing modeling projects further before I touch sculpting? My biggest fear is spreading myself too thin — I’d rather build solid modeling fundamentals first since that feels like the foundation for everything else.
Also, what would you suggest I should and shouldn’t do at this stage?
One more thing — I notice that I always think, “I know this part, so I should be able to create this object on my own without tutorials.” But then I often get completely blocked, feel demotivated very fast, and don’t want to look up YouTube videos for that specific object. I know this probably isn’t the best mindset, but it keeps happening.
So do you think, while making these 30 objects, if I get stuck, I should watch a YouTube video for that specific object? Or would that be harmful for learning? How would you guys suggest I approach this whole practice phase?
