Are you suppossed to:
1- watch the video
2 - read the text
or
1- read the text
2 - watch the video
it doesn't matter, do what u feels right first , sometimes watching video help to better understanding, and sometimes reading is more helpful.
what is important is re-watching and re-reading until you get a good understanding of the concept.
all the best
Personally I read and then watch, but it really doesn't matter what order you do.
For me what worked was watching the video -> reading the text -> doing the exercise while following the text and referring back to video whenever i needed to see how Comfy was doing it.
But do what works for you since there really isn't a wrong/right way. What I would recommend though is not skipping either the video or text as they complement each other.
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
