Here it is. My video of the 7 tips & tricks I use most often in my artwork. Hopefully you can use some of them in your own art to make it even better! If not, well, I tried. I'm just one man.

I do really hope you guys liked the video cuz it was a certified pain in the ass to make. I've been dreading making this video cuz I know how I am, wanting it to be as perfect and comprehensive as I can make it so I never have to do it again. This isn't the kind of video I enjoy making. If I was the kind of person that could just say what I'm doing while screen recording it would've been so much easier. But if I'm not working from a script I'll just start stumbling over my words and will inevitably forget some import piece of information I wanted to include. So trying to match up what's happening on the screen with the voiceover was a tedious process.

Anyway, that's my rant.
