This was so great. The experiential process points, like about constantly switching back and forth between grips and techniques, really illuminate how it all comes together. Thank you!

I'm also currently doing Ryan's courses on new masters and they're GREAT. He's such a good teacher.

I didn't know he worked in the industry that long, amazing. Looking forward to learning from an experienced and seasoned master. I've watched him on youtube a few times and I've always enjoyed his lessons very practical. I'll put aside my non-photo blue pencil for the red!

Very interesting your method.
I have one question. The red pencil you're using as planification stage is a current prismacolor or it's a special red color?
I´m asking this because you show a scanned page on photoshop an it appears the program detecs this color at the moment so the erasing is a matter of seconds.
Or could I use any red pencil and photoshop will detect it in the same way?

Loved this!! Will definitely be working on some primitives. and trying to understand them from a 3-D perspective! Might go ahead and find some face references and try breaking them into primitive shapes :) Thanks for the lesson, Ryan!
