I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Community Lead at n8n.
Yea, its either you are good or crap and anything in-between is crap. But the only way to get better is to keep trying.
Plus, doing it solo means it will take orders of magnitude longer to get the same quality as the high budget projects.
