Marker Sketching: Master Design Sketching with Markers
Master design sketching with markers from doodles to complete renders with the help of an industrial design expert
"This is a very helpful instructional course. I like the format and the instructor is quite knowledgeable. It is definitely for beginners, but he takes you to intermediate quickly and enjoyably. :)"
"Great course... tho i think i should practice like crazy to be half as good as him... but I already see a lot of improvements in my skill and am truly thankful for the awesome course!"
Design is a big part of my life. Ever since I was a kid, I've always been fascinated by design sketching and especially marker sketching. I mean, who doesn't love to draw and sketch stuff right?
Hi, my name is Marouane, I’m an industrial designer and founder of TheSketchMonkey, a community for designers. Sketching is something I’ve been doing for as long as I can remember and it has taken me on a journey all over the world - from my native country of Sweden to designing cars in Italy all the way to my current location, South Florida.
In this 3,5 hour video course, you will learn the marker sketching techniques that I’ve learned over the years as a designer.
You’ll also learn a detailed step by step walk through of a car rendering where you can literally watch over my shoulder as we go from early outlines to a full blown color render and much much more!
This course is for you who want to improve your analog sketching skills - maybe you are an industrial designer just like me or a complete beginner who wants to dive into the world of marker sketching.
If you have any questions or feedback what so ever about the course or a specific lesson, please make sure you write it in the discussions forum.
Thank you for your interest in my course. I’m excited to show you all of this and I hope you are too!
