Mi experiencia a sido buena, lo único que me ha fallado es que no tenia la misma versión de Illustrator y habían cosas que tenia que pensar por mi cuenta como hacerlas. Pero por otro lado al a ver tenido que buscarme la vida yo en muchas cosas para hacerlas pues he aprendido mas.

It was an amazing course! The instructor explained every step along the way and showed everything while creating the orc, he did not skip anything assuming that we would know anything and took it step by step! Really loved the finished product and the experience along the way! Amazing, short, and concise course!

sometimes he does some keyboard shortcut without telling you especially at the start and doesn't say what he did but then he tells you what he did later in the section. other than that no complaints
