Customer Reviews
Fastastic, informative, and fun
This is a "must listen" podcast for anyone who is interested in drawing. Host Rob Duenas is an amazing artist and very entertaining while being informative. It's not a "how to" podcast, but if you listen and follow along with the provided show notes and pictures, you are bound to learn some things that will help you improve your own drawing style.
Unique Take on Podcasts In General
Grab the PDF that accompanies this episode and follow along as a professional artist gives hints, tips and techniques to you all for the low cost of simply downloading two files. Great content, easy to listen to and follow along. Simply an awesome look behind the scenes of one way that art is being created today.
Art School for Free
The web is an ocean of artwork, some of it awesome and some...well. This artist's work stands out as unique, creative and well crafted which puts him directly into the awesome catagory. This podcast is like sitting down with a friend in the gaming/art industry, getting to hear his thoughts on the things you love. That alone is well worth the listen but lately the podcast is evolving into an actual course in art production, I am very enthused to see where it goes. Stay tuned, I certainly will.
