I bought this course to give me an understanding of how to layout t-shirt designs in Adobe Illustrator and prepare them for print. The good news is that this course does just that and the instructor goes very deep into the philosophy of graphic tee shirt design. The downside is that too much gets lost in translation because of poor English translation. Nonetheless, I was still able to take a lot from this course and I do recommend it.

The course is great and the steps on how to do it but the problem is that some of the resources haven't been uploaded on this course especially on the Halftones and the Shirt Mockup that you are using. Next time when you make a course you need to make sure that the resources that you've applied on the video should be also uploaded in your course so that your customers will have an easy access in downloading it. Overall feedback: 4/5
