"Most people don't put much
thought into starting a drawing.
However, it's critical to think it though
and set up your perpective before you begin."
After taking this class, even beginner
level illustrators who've never used Photoshop
will be able to draw their own characters
by improving their basic understanding of
lines, contrast, light, and basic art.

NESSI's Profile & Portfolio
Instructor
NESSI
Illustrator
Hello, I'm Illustrator NESSI.
What I've learned while working on
game character illustrations
and international projects for over 10-years
is that there's nothing more
important than your basic fundamental skills.
From the basics of Photoshop
to solidifying skills through basic art theory
and applying it to commercial artwork.
You'll be able to improve your overall
skills in a balanced way.
Based on my years of experience
in drawing and lectures on illustrations,
we will go through the aspects
that may have felt troubling and difficult,
and go beyond the mere theory
of the work, allowing you to apply
the acquired skills to your actual drawings.
Illustrator,
NESSI

Curriculum
Interview
with Illustrator NESSI
This would be a helpful class for those who are just getting started with Photoshop and drawing, and to those who have invested quite some time but are not getting the expected results, and those who simply wish to master the basics.
Question.02
Would someone who doesn't know anything about Photoshop be able to keep up with the lecture?
Would someone who doesn't know anything about Photoshop be able to keep up with the lecture?
Even those who have never used Photoshop will be able to enjoy drawing props and character depictions; color a character's face, full-body, costume, etc. Also, those unfamiliar with drawing the human body, including costumes and coloring, will learn to draw them with confidence.
Question.03
How does practicing the basics help when working on an illustration?
How does practicing the basics help when working on an illustration?
You need to practice the basics to create high-quality results regardless of the style. Of course, practicing the basics could be considered boring since you aren't doing the flashy and cool work you expected. But personally, after 10-years of practicing the basics, I've become a freelancer that gets offers to partake in various collaborations both locally and globally.
Question.04
Would you have anything to say to your potential students?
Would you have anything to say to your potential students?
You'll be able to fix your bad habits using a checksheet while completing your practice exercises with me and learn to give yourself feedback through a scheduler. I've prepared multiple difficulty levels, just in case you get stuck on something while drawing. I'll be your teacher as well as your textbook, the one who will always be here to cheer you on for your future.
