Der Kursinhalt ist sehr logisch und gut nachvollziehbar aufgebaut. Man wird Schritt für Schritt an neue Informationen und Techniken herangeführt. Es entsteht also keine Überforderung und man hat immer Lust weiterzulernen.

I love to draw character and I paid a lot of money on drawing character design courses, and it turns out that I need more basic skills. This art and science series are exactly what I need. I recommend you buy all of Brent’s courses. It gives you the strong foundation to draw everything.

The basics felt short, but you get an idea of how a pro artist thinks in terms of basics. Now I’m going through the examples (bird and orchards) and drawing along with the artist has been useful. The artist consistently comments throughout the sketches, describing thought processes and purpose. Useful.
Karen Flynn –
His instruction is easy to follow. I’ve taken drawing classes in the past and those skipped instruction on basic shapes and started with more difficult drawing concepts. I’m going back to the beginning with this class and I anticipate better results after I’ve practiced what he’s taught on basic shapes and angles.
Yadula Chodankar –
I think so. It has been a while since I have done any drawing so this is a good refresher.
Mr. Brent is a really good instructor. I want to try all his courses.

Tzach Dana –
Great course, made me understand the fineries of the basic skills and curious about the next steps.
My only wish is that the supplementary information lecture was before the basic skills section so I would have been better prepared.
Laurie Keefe –
Informative without being chatty. Doesn’t fill every second with talking. Very to the point, and I love all the examples of the masters. I felt very guided and encouraged. Thank you!
Paul Avila –
