Complete Drawing Course. Create Video Game Concept Art

This course is designed for anyone who wants to learn how to draw concept art, even if they believe they lack the talent, time, or experience. The course focuses on practicing fundamental concepts in a fun and creative way, with a particular emphasis on drawing objects, characters, environments, weapons, spaceships, and game scenes related to video games.

The course is suitable for both traditional paper-and-pencil artists, as well as those who have a digital drawing setup with a graphics tablet. Topics covered in the course include:

• Basic Fundamentals: Learning stroke, shape, size, and shade, and applying these concepts to create video game objects such as weapons, cars, castles, and more.
• Character Creation: Using the fundamentals to create characters, including learning about dimensions, posing, and other character design techniques.
• 3D Shapes: Exploring isometric drawing and building up a sense of depth through the use of three-dimensional shapes.
• Perspective and Depth: Learning one and two-point perspective techniques, as well as saturation techniques to convey depth in drawings.
• Form and Flow: Practicing flowing shapes into one another to create natural-looking forms and structures.
• Advanced Techniques: Building on the fundamentals, learning advanced techniques such as pose, shading, lighting, stroke thickness, and more.

Throughout the course, students are encouraged to use their creativity to draw things that are interesting to them, rather than simply replicating what the instructor is drawing. The goal is to develop the skills necessary for conveying ideas and concepts through concept art, rather than aiming for perfection or winning art awards. This course provides a supportive and engaging environment for learning and practicing drawing techniques in the context of video game concept art.
