Collaborating with my peers significantly improved my teamwork abilities. I highly recommend this course to anyone passionate about 3D character creation and eager to break into the industry.

Before joining the masterclass, I had limited experience working with automobiles and complex hard surfaces. The program has been transformative for my skills and understanding of the field.

Abhayas Sharma

Working alongside experienced artists in the studio transformed me from a beginner into a professional. I have learned so much during this course.

Devanand Sharma

I personally feel that the Character Masterclass I enrolled in is not only suited for beginners but also for experienced artists. Regardless of your experience, you will definitely learn something new.

Akash Shahu

I am glad I chose Lakshya Digital’s Ingame Academy. My mentor was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and provided hands-on guidance every step of the way.

The Character Masterclass was instrumental in helping me transition from a student to a working professional in this industry. My observation skills have improved significantly, and I now feel confident in my ability to create characters from concepts.
