Doig was asked how to start learning Blender on stream, and here's his advice.

True to learning all things

WHOA DUDE, YOUR STUFF IS AWESOME!

This is the best advice I have ever heard in regards to Blender... thank you 💜 I will take this wisdom

Yo, no worries! Hope it serves you well!

I always get this frustrating feeling that I'm limiting myself to approaching things this way. Any advice or mentality you take so I'm not beating myself up about not being able to be a master at every possible tool?

No one's gonna write "knew what every button in x software did" on your obituary. You'll be known (and remembered) for what you did with the tools, unless you're making tutorials, I wouldn't worry about it.

Decided there wasn’t enough fan made content of my favorite little guy and picked it up. A few months of learning and now im in the process of rigging! Its been a long journey but now that im here its felt so fast. Always love seeing your inspirational content doig!

@razzadoop This is very good advice. I wouldn't know what I know about Premiere Pro or After Effects if I didn't already know what I wanted to make, and learn about the tools needed to create it.

That’s great advice

For learning I actually disagree. Goal first is frustrating when it turns out unrealistic. Tool first makes it easy to work incrementally, gives a more complete understanding, teaches which goals are attainable, and the small wins and doors opened by a new skill is motivating
