What began as a small sketch video series now is a tutorial series in High Definition (HD)!



It is made for comic fans and aspiring artists out there.


The best part: It is complete free of charge and you can embed the videos in your blog, website and so on. You also can download the original size videos at the vimeo site.


Because I only can upload 500MB each week you will have to wait for the second part of the 'Hellgirl' paint video until next week.
Here are the links to the sketch video and part one (of two) of the paint video:

HELLGIRL - Sketch Video

HELLGIRL - Paint Video (1of2)

The sketch video is shown in real time. The paint video is faster.


Please spread the word and use the image from above.


Have fun and drop me a line if you like the new series!

Best,

Chris
