Err. I know very well how to model, texture, render and animate. I do that long enough. But even with that knowledge and years of 3D experience i am in heavy trouble to find my way into Blender. Does that sound easy?

Hey, it is absolutely possible to have no pain at the evening from pressing the hotkeys. There is also no need to look into the manual for every little poop. Buttons have tooltips. Try that with hotkeys. And wow, you can even customize hotkeys and complete UI's in other software. How cool is that

Blender UI is love or hate. This software is not made for everybody. It has a very steep learning curve. It is the opposite of intuitive. Nearly not customizable. Hard to learn and hard to use
