We’re not re‑recording the whole course for every point release. But we are committed to keeping the updated. What Students Are Saying (So Far) We gave early access to 50 existing students. Here’s what they told us: “The new boolean section alone is worth the rewatch. I used to avoid booleans entirely. Now I use them daily.” — Marc T., product designer “The non‑destructive panel system is genius. I built a spaceship hull in 20 minutes that would have taken me 3 hours before.” — Elena R., freelance 3D artist “Finally, someone explains weighted normals without making my brain melt.” — David K., hobbyist How to Get the Update If you’re a new customer: You’ll get the updated version automatically. No extra steps. Two reasons
So go grab the update. Open Blender. And model something that would have made you proud a year ago.

But Blender doesn’t stand still. And neither do we.
You asked for it. Over 1,200 students told us: “Great course, but can you re-record the booleans section? Can you show more non-destructive workflows?”
