That's so awesome! I've been looking forward to this for a while but I'm about to leave for a vacation😭. I downloaded it anyway maybe I'll be able to catch it on the last day or maybe it'll stay in the library? idk

Yea that's a big plus I bet. I didn't really get the hang of animating in blender😶‍🌫️ How long did it take you to make that walk animation?

Doing 3D without any industry experience to me feels like I'll be an eternal impostor. I always wonder what the "right" way to do stuff is.
I imagine people in the industry feel the same though and "have you tried being really stupid about it" is the answer to most problems more often than not.
