“I loved this course and recommend it to anyone who wants to learn about 3D software for jewellery Norsola is an excellent, passionate and experienced teacher who patiently guides us through the learning process. The course book is very well laid out, making it easy to follow the techniques and to remake the jewellery on our own. The bonus is the presence of 3D printers on site which allows us to directly put our knowledge into practice and design our projects. "
