I went on a video binge with these tutorials. You are clear and precise. I went for years in classical painting so switching to digital is quite difficult but these make it seem less intimidating. I look forward to practising with your tutorials :)

Thank you so much :'D. I'm in art school and everyone's just expected to know this stuff. No one teaches the fundamentals, but it's posed an interesting challenge and I've been adapting quickly and teaching myself a lot with my professors help. Anyway, this really met me where I was at, I've been doing a lot of flat shading, but traditional is where my love lies. Been trying to figure out how to blend digitally because thats where the industry is right now for the most part.

ohmygod Where has this video been all my life? ive looked at tutorial and, tutorial and, nothing was helpful. people would make 30 minute videos on how to shade but, the message never got through because they would just go blah blah blah. however, you managed to teach me shading in 4 minutes.
