  Im astonished that you just casually post full blown classes for free. I can&apos;t express how helpful these have been.

  What a lesson. My little characters are finally getting backgrounds that really just set up their story. How fun is this. I was getting to bogged down with lines and vanishing points. This just really clarified it to me. So grateful....

  Thank you for the video. Not to devalue the previous parts of the tutorial/course, but this one I found the most useful so far.<br>I was trying to practice BGs and the pipeline of &quot;references -&gt; plan -&gt; application of BGs to the story&quot; helped me a lot.<br>Kudos!

  This video is awesome, in school id use floor plans to save the time of indecision that comes with making things as you go. Obviously making things as you go can be fun, but when they&apos;re based off of a strong foundational idea it&apos;s much more fun to do and has a lot less stress. Great video, seriously

  I&apos;m so happy I found your channel. As an aspiring artist, I run into these kind of nerve-racking technicalities, and here you are solving problems. Thanks.<br><br><b>*</b><br>You drew with Jerome Lereculey. One of my Heroes. I met him in Bordeaux, and he drew a character from les 5 Terres, the guy is a hard-working monster.
