Great course so far. I’m trying to draw a sea turtle but I find the pattern on the flippers very challenging. Do you simplify the pattern when it is so small and intricate?

However I struggled colouring the eyes. I learnt that working a small area at a time makes a lot of difference. I started off in the late evening and finished the next day. Due to the changes in the lighting, the colour of the head is quite different to the body! Thank you Matt for your fantastic teaching.

I never knew one can do that and adding layers make such a difference , I will certainly have a go. Thanks Matt.

Hi Helga,

The videos appear to be playing normally. Are you still having issues?
