Can local llm's teach complex subjects? (Such as 3D modeling?)

Like not having ai do the work for you bur rather help teach you, for a topic that may be complex?
I ask this because i may want to try 3d modeling but im also not that smart, and i want to learn gamedev too.
Is this too much for local options? are there any models that can handle such a task?

- Any local LLM is built on having less parameters, meaning less information it has retained. The more fringe and specialized the subject, the less likely it has retained and the more likely it will hallucinate it.
- You are in reality asking 3 different capabilities : knowing what 3D modeling is (knowledge), teaching it (so steps and code capabilities) and following your instructions.
- In addition anything 3D is a typical vision model capability, so you would need a multimodal model (vision + LLM).
In your case, I would consider very recent multimodal models : Qwen 3 VL 8B maybe.

Yes, but you need to be extremely careful. At best it's going to give you a very mediocre view. It isn't a bad way to find out what direction to look in though.

I’ve tried using a custom prompt to make it teach Blender across several models, but it didn’t work very well. The information was inconsistent, outdated, and the understanding wasn’t aligned.
