Oh man I love them. They are simple and clear and you can get what you wanted to do in certain parts. Just keep going!

Thank you for your feedback! Going to post some collected works every month. I always find after assignments that I wanna try and put it all together and have some fun.

Great work! Really inspiring! I will try it!

There are so many videos on FZD channel that I don't know where to start... any advice?

Hey! Thank you for the kind feedback. Been slowly improving but its a marathon not a sprint.

I go one by one on the FZD videos. I watch the video and then apply what Feng is teaching to an new or existing project. I am on episode 13 at the moment. Start with one that interests you. They are FULL of helpful advice and information for improving your skills.

I love listening to the podcasts too. They are perfect for listening while I draw.

Thank's Alan for your answer!

I've already watched some FZD videos but I didn't know if there was a reading order... You started at ep1 and then chronologically?

Yeah I have not heard about any reading order. I could be wrong.

YUP! Chronologically, listen, then apply.

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. I'm especially fond of this one for sketching and playing around with, and it's what I used for the notorious "Mr. Monkey Business" video from Lesson 0. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.

I would not recommend this for Drawabox - we use brush pens for filling in shadow shapes, and you do not need a pen this fancy for that. If you do purchase it, save it for drawing outside of the course.
