Sinceramente no es el mejor curso que he tomado pero tampoco es malo, simplemete no es lo que buscaba.
Sin embargo si da ciertos conocimientos y aspectos que uno puede pasa por alto o no los ve a simple vista, aunque sean basicos y eso me gusto.
Lo recomiendo para las personas que apenas estan aprendiendo a dibujar, pero no para una persona que ya tenga conociemientos basicos del tema.

Fue un curso rápido, práctico y útil para comprender los fundamentos del dibujo de la figura humana: pude , finalmente, desentrañar y aplicar los conceptos de balance, movimiento, volumen y legibilidad con más soltura en mis dibujos.
