Specific skills, not general enthusiasm
Most courses on 3D art teach you the software. Raskelod teaches you how games actually get made — polygon budgets, LOD chains, PBR texture workflows, and the feedback loops that exist inside real production pipelines.
Since 2014, every module has been built around one question: does this translate directly to a studio job or a shipped project?
Six things worth knowing before you compare
These are structural differences in how the programme is built — not marketing promises.
Production-calibre briefs
Assignments mirror actual game studio tasks — tris counts, UV density targets, and engine import specs are part of every deliverable.
Animation grounded in physics
Keyframe timing is taught alongside weight, momentum, and secondary motion — not just curve editors and graph tweaking.
Async-first, timezone-agnostic
All lectures are recorded and structured for self-paced consumption. Live sessions exist, but missing them costs you nothing.
Critique over correction
Feedback explains the reasoning behind each note — not just what to fix, but why it reads wrong to a technical artist or art director.
Engine-agnostic foundation
Unreal and Unity workflows are covered in parallel. The underlying geometry and shading principles apply regardless of which engine you end up in.
Small cohort sizes, on purpose
Enrolment is deliberately capped. More students per instructor means slower feedback cycles — and slower feedback cycles mean weaker portfolios.
"The brief for the environment module had a 14 000 tris budget and a specific texel density requirement. I had to look both terms up. By the end I understood why they mattered."
Benedikt Okafor
Environment artist, completed module 3
"Feedback arrived within 48 hours and referenced specific frames in my animation. Not 'needs work' — actual frame numbers and the physics principle I'd ignored."
Taryn Eloff
Character animator, cohort 8
"I was working full-time in a different timezone. The async structure meant I never fell behind. The content held up — no filler sessions padded in to justify a schedule."
Przemek Wierzbicki
Technical artist, self-paced track
