Spent late nights uploading your carefully created characters to Art Station. Worried that someone will tear them apart. But also hopeful that someone will actually tell you they’re good.

Are you still waiting to become “good enough” before you launch your character art career?

You’ve put down hard-earned money for access to tutorials and courses that you hoped would get you closer to “being ready”. More money than you’d like to admit. And probably more than your partner would’ve liked.

But you still aren’t ready to quit your day job. You’ve told yourself that you only have one shot at this. That you can only afford one shot at becoming a character artist before you lay that pipe dream to rest.

You’ve put in the hours

Because you see the way zombie 9-5 workers grind for the weekend. Only to stress the weekend away because Monday is just around the corner.

You aren’t willing to settle. Not for that life. Not when you’re so close to getting the career you were born to do.

You’re ready to do something you’re interested in. Instead of something you hate.

You’ve paid your dues

And you’re willing to dive into a career that you actually love

You wake up, fire up your computer, and get to work on your absolute dream career: Designing exciting new characters for high-paying clients.

Your office has varied over the years—from working in-house with world-class studios, to creating from the comfort of your own home. Perhaps you’ve even had the opportunity to work remotely as a digital nomad.

But one thing has remained constant: you LOVE what you do.
You get to spend your days designing thrilling characters…
…See them come to life in blockbuster games and movies…
…And get paid good money to do so.

You’ve been dreaming about it for a while

You’re so close that you can taste it. But you know you still have a bit to learn about character design before you’re ready to land a lucrative job.

You know what your ideal career looks like. It’s getting there that’s the problem.

People think there are two options only
However, all successful artists claim there’s a third one. The one, which actually helped them get into the industry.

You’ve probably already tried this one. Surfed YouTube over and over again for tutorials and followed along step-by-step. But still didn't learn and industry pipeline.

There’s really no one out there you can fully trust to give you feedback. No one to walk you through your weak points and help turn them into strengths.

So, you just keep going in circles on YouTube. Picking up bad habits that - at best - take years to unlearn. Watching speed-stylings from artists living your dream, and hoping that one day their talent somehow rubs off on you.

Good old Art School. The place you go to pay a lot of money for out-dated advice and a fancy diploma.

Costs a lot of money, makes you juggle that with your day job and doesn't guarantee anything at all. Makes you feel you're losing time.

Teachers are rarely interested in your success, feedback is almost absent. Valuable feedback is even more rare.

New course material has to go through an eternally long process before it's added to the curriculum. So, you're getting outdated information from the moment it hits your desk.

Especially in an industry that’s as fast-paced and constantly evolving as 3D Character Art.

Very few current professionals went the entirely self-taught route. The vast majority run out of steam and end up quitting before they can get good.

This can be a better route, but it’s expensive and means having to put your life on hold for years without guarantee of success.

Free but takes YEARS & Most people end up quitting
