Our Verdict
The Adobe Illustrator Essentials for Character Design course is a gem for beginners eager to digitize their sketches, offering them essential knowledge on top of a unique overshoot method. While there's room for improvement—namely expanding the intermediate-level content and smoother distribution of character design techniques—its affordability and accessibility cater well to those with limited digital art experience.
What We Liked
- Comprehensive coverage of both essential Illustrator tools and character design techniques, benefiting both beginners and those needing a refresher.
- Unique overshooting technique for easy coloring and shadowing adds value to the course material.
- Deliberate pacing allowing for better retention, especially useful for newcomers to Illustrator.
- Engaging presentation style makes learning enjoyable and entertaining.
Potential Drawbacks
- Some course content is too rudimentary even for an 'Essentials' title, particularly the initial sections covering basic tools.
- A few users desired a stronger character design focus throughout the course, rather than mainly in the last chapter.
- Certain users felt that more advanced techniques could have been added to diversify learning and better meet their needs.
