Michael Bridges is an experienced 3D artist who has taught more than 100,000 students how to create 3D artwork.

All the project files will be included, as well as additional references and resources - you'll never get stuck. We provide challenges and solutions at each step to make sure that you are learning-by-doing and not just watching someone else make art.
