📝 Description

This isn’t a watch-and-forget tutorial. It’s live mentorship built around one goal: a AAA-ready portfolio piece. You get weekly assignments, live classes, and direct notes from Vijay on your actual files.

You start with the Stylized Dragon Skull Axe – a perfect test of both sides of prop art. The skull forces you to learn organic sculpting, skull structure, horns, and teeth. The axe head and handle force you to keep edges clean and shapes readable. If you can pull off both, you can handle most game weapons.

The workflow stays practical. Blockout first for silhouette. Then mid-forms in ZBrush. Then detail pass where most beginners mess up – you learn when to stop and keep forms clean for stylized PBR. Final step is all about selling it: lighting in KeyShot, beauty shots, wireframes, and breakdowns in Photoshop that recruiters actually want to see.

You also don’t work alone. You get a Discord group for daily doubts, student reels for reference, and portfolio reviews that tell you straight what to fix before you apply.

🧑‍🎓 Who this course is for

• Beginners who want to get into 3D character and prop art for games with zero guesswork
• Junior artists and students who have a messy portfolio and need one clean hero weapon to show studios
