Facil de seguir, un curso practico
no me gusto. No pude desarrollar una manera de crear personajes con personalidad sino más bien ver cómo el ilustrador crea su propio mundo. Básicamente lo que veo es como alguien hace lo que sabe hacer con su estilo y punto.
No me gustó el curso, ya lo realice y peca por superficial y lo entendí más como una propaganda del profesor y su trabajo, que un material que realmente mejore la forma de realizar los proyectos, se simplifica el curso viendo cómo alguien que domina el photoshop hacer un dibujo y despues decir listo si necesitan hacer muchos personajes dibujen varios ojos, bocas y narices y mézclenlos, entonces si uno no tiene conocimiento de photoshop no aporta porque lo hace todo muy rapido
Aproveitando bastante o curso, ótimas referências e didática!
Muy buen curso, una gran guía para desarrollar personajes.
