Because Eva Cremers is a self-taught 3D artist, she’s never played by the rules. Her creative liberty has allowed her to hone her own unique style, and has led her to collaborate with companies like Amazon Music, Apple, Facebook, and Nike. Her style is free, experimental, heavily inspired by classic cartoons, and their larger-than-life personalities.

In this online course, Eva teaches you how to design spectacular 3D creatures from scratch using Cinema 4D. Explore unconventional, but simple digital illustration techniques to create organic, lively forms filled with color and detail. By the end of the course, you will be able to form a whole army of unique and joyful 3D characters.
