Do any of these situations sound like you right now:
Struggling to finish your character because you keep getting stuck at the various stages of character creation?
Not sure of what you're doing when creating your 3D characters?
No matter how much you practice, your sculpts & characters don’t look the way you want?
Wanting to improve you character modelling skills but not even sure where to start?
The downside of not knowing how to create 3D characters isn’t just wasted time - it’s the compound effect of:
Not being able to tell the stories & animations you've always dreamed of
Missing out on the studio projects and freelance projects you could be getting paid for
Not having a worthy portfolio to show to studios & employees to get you hired
I don't want this to be you, so here's how we'll get you your character modelling goals in no time...

How It Works: Here's Everything You'll Learn in the Stylized Character Academy to Create Your Own Characters
Week 0
Introduction & Choosing A Concept
We'll start off the by choosing a strong character concept. I'll guide you on what to look out for when choosing a concept for your 3D character!
Week 1
Blocking Out a Basemesh
Next, we’ll start building your character using simple shapes. This is where we figure out the main proportions and overall structure of the character.
Week 2
Sculpting the Head
We’ll move on to sculpting the head. I'll show you the proportions you need to keep in mind, and how to shape the face, build the features, and get a solid base to work from.
Week 3
Sculpting the Body, Hands & Hair
Now we’ll work on the rest of the body, this includes the hands and hair! You’ll learn how to keep things clean, stylized, and in proportion with the rest of the sculpt.
Week 4
Sculpting & Modelling Clothes & Accessories
This week is all about clothes and any extra accessories. We’ll sculpt and model some simple outfits and accessories to bring more personality to your character.
Week 5
Intro to Retopology (Retopologizing the Face)
Time to start cleaning things up! We’ll begin retopology by focusing on the face, learning how to create clean edgeflow that deform well when animated.
Week 6
Retopologizing the Body
Next, we’ll retopologize the rest of the body. You’ll learn how to keep your mesh efficient and animation-friendly while still holding the form of your sculpt.
Week 7
Finalize Retopology + Additional Modelling
We’ll start the retopology for the clothes and also start modelling additional objects for the teeth, mouth, etc.
Week 8
Finalize Retopology + Additional Modelling & UV Unwrapping
We’ll finish up the retopology of the rest of the cloths, character, the teeth, mouth & tongue and then we'll tackle UV unwrapping to sets things up for texturing.
Week 9
Hair Grooming
We are now going to replace the sculpted hair we made earlier & take the hairstyle to the next level! I'll show you how to use Blender’s hair grooming tools to create clean and stylized hair for your character.
Week 10
Texturing & Shading the Character
Time to add textures and materials!We’ll paint the character and make simple shaders that will enhance out texturing even further.
Week 11
Rigging & Posing With Rigify
Next, we'll move onto rigging. how to set up an animation ready rig and how to pose your character so that we can prepare the model for a strong final presentation.
Week 12
Presentation & Final Renders
For the final week... all our hardwork will payoff as we light, composite, and make final renders.We'll finish with clean 3D renders & turnarounds!
In the Next 12 Weeks From Now, This Could Be You…
Super confident in your process when creating your 3D characters
Working on the stories & animations you've always dreamed of because you learn't how to create your own characters
Confidently submitting your portfolio to studios knowing fully well that you could get hired
Getting paid for freelance projects just because you know how to create 3D characters
"I'm still on the fence?..."
"I'm not sure this will work for me..."
Kenny works with you 1-on-1, making sure you’re never left behind. Also, this isn’t a tutorial, it’s live mentorship, where you can get direct feedback from Kenny anytime you’re stuck.
"Should I really make this investment?"
Consider this:
Doing it own your own will take you years to get a some worth decent level (speaking from experience)
How much is your time worth trying to do it on your own?
Also, one freelance project you work on could cover your entire investment
