is this course accessible to someone who has 0 experience sculpting in blender or should i take a beginner sculpt course first?

Hey @puddles,

HUMAN is a more advanced course.
Watch the Art of Sculpting, an older course using an earlier version of Blender. There have been some changes in Blender since the release of this course, but I believe in theory as much as practical. Watching, without following along, in my opinion is just as important, if not more so.

With zero experience of sculpting in Blender, I would suggest practising sculpting techniques with the Fundamentals of Sculpting prior to tackling HUMAN.

I do strongly advise watching each chapter through once, without touching Blender. Then start the chapter again whilst following along.

Hope this helps and good luck with your human endeavours.

Happy Blending!
