great course

Não gostei, ao comprar o curso não é dito que tem de ter um programa específico. Este programa é pago, ou seja, para obter o conhecimento não tenho ferramentais acessíveis para o aprendizado. A introdução é boa. Mas não cumpriu seu papel, para mim.

--- Before Purchasing This Class ---
It's important to know that most of the Tools Used in this class are NOT available on C4D Lite Version. Tools like 'connect & delete', 'cloner' and other functions will not be there, so if you only have the lite version, you won't be able to replicate everything.
This said, Andrei is a great deisgner, a great teacher and the concepts expressed in this class are very good.
