A course by Leartes Studios
Leartes Studios was founded in 2019 by Oğuzhan KAR and Serdar Ürkmez, who met while studying environment design in Yildiz Technical University in Istanbul, Turkey. After both having worked for clients such as CBILABVR Studios and other studios doing environment design and level art, the pair joined forces and started Leartes Studios.
Since their launch a few years ago, Leartes Studios has worked with major clients like Activision, Microsoft, Epic Games, Marvel Studios, Ubisoft, NetEase Games, Dekogon, and Platige Image. Some of their most notable work was working on Call of Duty: Warzone and Call of Duty: Black Ops, as well as collaborating with Microsoft on the Project Natick, which aims to build an underwater datacenter in the Atlantic Ocean, by creating virtual productions.

Would be great if they tell you where to go and shortcuts to memorize instead of jumping 50 to 100 instead of 1 to 100.The vertex paint lesson, could be more elaborate on where and how the instructor got the project file. And the previous environment modelling they tell you ALT+LM_Drag at the midlle of the video before pulling it. But at the end of the day its a great course. Can't complain

I love that this tutorial is in English. This is aimed at beginners with a basic understanding of Unreal Engine. Quite easy to follow along if you already have experience in 3D applications.

I loved this course because of how they explain the pipeline of environment creation.
I do think they could've made a better explanation on materials and how to use them with the assets provided, but that would be my only negative take.
It's a good course if you have some understanding of Unreal.
