Muy bueno e inspirador
greate lesson!
This course was pretty interesting but could have gone into more detail. I wish she'd talked about how to make the gold effect in more detail; especially when it came to the coloring she demonstrated but didn't really talk about why she was making her decisions. Overall it was a pretty decent course and it was inspiring but I wish I'd had a little more information.
Very good thanks!
excelente curso me dejo muy satisfecho
