[@leif1075]

Please do you have a free version of the course or at least part for those of us who can't afford it and are really struggling?? Thanks for sharing.

[@leif1075]

Hope you can respond when you can..Thanks very much..

[@cranberrycanvas]

I’ve been noticing how much subtlety matters especially when trying to craft a sophisticated composition rather than just eye candy. Very good advice

[@tomkirbygreen]

Gosh this course looks excellent, looking forward to this very much. Mucho thanks to all involved.

[@CarolinPeters]

Love the idea of thinking about the before and after of a pose when you draw it! What a great course!

[@CreativeSteve69]

Hey david I already bought the course pre-sale a month ago now. I can't wait to learn to create creatures alongside ya on my Christmas break and bring my world I have in mind to life. :D

[@mak.c.7764]

My cat enjoyed this video so much, she attacked my TV. 10/10, loved this video!

[@ProkoTV]

We're happy to be cat TV lol

[@TaurusVibez]

Ooooo! Definitely on the list of future classes. I previously took his first class on character design fundamentals and I learned a lot! This course would be a great "next step." :o

[@BowlsBowls]

Really great work, I've started a creature design portfolio recently I may give this a try it seems it could be worth my while❤

[@Xitaychin]

Master! And the teaching is great!

[@Thollis1987]

Thanks for uploading the new videos

[@DarinKarkawatli]

Thanks for the video learned a lot!

[@ryuudrazyl5330]

I've seen that bat/ape creature drawn in that exact same positioning in other how to sketch books. Seems to be a very popular image that comes up every few years.

Dude look like Bohannaon from He'll on Wheels !!!! Aye ! Everybody stopped watching that show after Common died. Real talk. Keep putting it guys. Proko we out here.

[@steve00alt70]

Having an artist that can both draw creatures and humans are great although it takes long time.

[@fishisnotfishfish2267]

Looks interesting. You explain things In such a dynamic way. I hope I can find my way back to this It looks really cool. I like what you said about the silhouette being pleasing to look at. I can actually feel what you said In your work. I wonder If your know how can apply more broadly. For example, I think I can draw something pretty accurately, but my art lacks Interest. I would always step back and look at It like somethings missing. Maybe I don't have enough design built into my work. I can't be the only person with this problem either. Like you draw something, but It could be more Interesting with a bit more design worked In. Anyways sorry for the rant u got me thinking your course would help the wheels start turning HAHA

[@samankucher5117]

[@NightfuryManiaLegends_]

What software do you use to draw? I can't find a good place to draw online.

[@3runjosh]

how long for the next video? I saw David is also doing a course with Aaron Blaise right now too. Things no doubt will slow down a lot for the video releases now right?

[@fireballsensei9287]

Manbat?

[@catherineraper]

Hi! Are your prices on the website in US dollars? I’m in Australia so I’d like to work out the exchange. I’m very interested in the course. :)

[@seanramsey]

Yeah, the prices are all in USD. Looks like right now 1 USD = 1.5 AUD so you could multiply the price by 1.5x to get the Australian rate. Hope that helps!

[@personman4639]

I love creature concept art, I'd probably ask zoos if I could offer free redesigns of some logos they have

[@Strider1122]

Hi there, do you offer certificates? My daughter is interested, I know she's looking at Gnomon also. Do you do a similar programme style to them regarding their certificate issuing or is this for self taught portfolio purposes? Looks great btw!

❤❤❤

[@blaircolquhoun7780]

I'm writing a science fiction novel about a human cop and an alien cop. The alien cop's a green-skinned female from a planet around Tau Ceti. How could I draw her?

[@ProkoTV]

If it's just the different skin color but still a bipedal humanoid, pretty much like you would a person.

Demons and monsters are the best to draw considering the inhuman features.

[@simpledrawingschannelsdc3352]

Beautiful drawing 👍on my channel there is a drawing of a Hawk man

[@irvanyudap4127]

[@biblequotesdaily6618]

main takeaway from this video: if you want to git gud at drawing creatures, watch hour long loops of ape videos on youtube 👍
