Ce cours est le n°2 des cours de Pavel Fomenko. Ce cours s'inscrit dans la continuité du premier. J'avoue que c'est plus les rendus de Pavel que le cours qui m'intéressent ; c'est une source d'inspiration. Mais c'est intéressant de voir également son processus de création.
I started this course a few years ago, but discontinued it for a year due to personal issues. I decided to continue it, and I think it's a great fit, as architecture is one of my career options, as I really enjoy drawing and designing urban spaces. It also helps me achieve two goals: to learn and delve into architectural drawing, and to improve my English by listening to it.
I highly recommend this course.
NICE COURSE !
