This is the first episode of Concept Art Class; a tutorial series that breaks down how I illustrate the items and characters for an upcoming card game. What makes this tutorial series different? I include your designs and all of my mistakes and exactly how I fix them.
***HERE'S HOW IT WORKS***
1. (Homework) At the end of each tutorial, I reveal the cards from the game that will be included in the next video.
2. (Art Critiques) I look at all the sketches you post using the hashtag for that particular set of cards and show them off at the beginning of the video. Your art skills do not matter for this. Pros and noobs are equal, I'm just celebrating ideas.
3. (Lesson) I show you exactly how I create the final illustrations from beginning to end in excruciating detail. I leave nothing out.
4. (Homework) I reveal the next set of cards for you to design and post and the hashtag that goes with them as well.
By the end, we will have a full set of cards we all worked on together to enjoy!
