Concise coverage of fundamentals with great interviews and process from working artists. Could probably do with a little more about the application and styles in games but a great course nonetheless.

Fun and challenging to me. Is not easy to me to create new characters, but with this practice and professional examples, I feel more confident to just do and see what happens. Thank you, very much.

Taking lessons from many great artists has taught me a lot about designing characters in video games. Definitely worth it until the end.

Exceptional course, it's the very best approach.
This skill, character design, is " stolen " rather than learned.
