Victor’s class is the best class I’ve ever been to, even after only having two! It’s exactly what I’ve been seeking to learn, with a mix of concept art and splash art, and his tips and tricks are ones I never saw anyone mention before. Also, he talks a lot about how it is to be an artist working in the industry and explains how it works, which I feel is very insightful and I learned so much ! He’s a really amazing teacher and gives the best vibes during class, it’s very exciting to be taught by someone so passionate I’m currently a student at an art school, but I feel I’ve learned more in two classes of a few hours once a week than in 1,5 years In fact, I feel like I leveled up a LOT in my character design class thanks to Victor’s teaching and it makes me incredibly happy !! I’d absolutely recommend this class to anyone (and am currently doing so to some of my fellow classmates), and also special thanks to everyone who’s so amazing in this server and on the chat during class. I’m surrounded by talented people who are super helpful and enthusiastic and passionate and it’s soooo motivating and fun to be a part of this.
