FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOW THE CHALLENGE WORKS?
The challenge is based on weekly assignments. Every week contains a list of assignments that cover the topic of the week, along with free resources and tutorials of other artists.
I accomplished the assignment list myself and I provide you the process that includes: HD images of my studies, show-how videos where I share with you my knowledge, tips, and tricks, real-time/time-lapse video processes, PSD files, and brushes I used, so you can take and learn from them.
DO I NEED TO HAVE CERTAIN SKILL LEVELS TO DO THE CHALLENGE?
The challenge is for everyone, even for those who never drew but want to start. It focuses mostly on art fundamentals, so no matter if you are a beginner or a professional, it's a good start for you.
DO I NEED TO USE A SPECIFIC SOFTWARE / PROGRAM?
All the assignments are made for everyone and can be accomplished in any technique, even traditionally with a pencil with paper.
Though I have accomplished the challenges in Photoshop, so if you want to learn or are familiar with this software, it will be a bonus for you.
SHOULD I FOLLOW ANY DEADLINES?
Nope! As long as you purchase the challenge's content, you have all the time to set a schedule that works for you the best.
I would suggest you take it slow. Do not overwork yourself because it is quite easy to burn out, especially when diving into fundamentals and technical stuff.
DO I HAVE ACCESS TO THE CONTENT FOREVER?
YES! After the purchase, all the content is yours forever.
If you have lost your access to it, please contact me via email at info@aalmaluar.com
WILL YOU OFFER FEEDBACK?
Feedback was exclusively for my Patreon supporters.
At the moment, my schedule is quite tight, so I don't have the possibility to offer feedback.
Though, by purchasing any challenge or joining the Patreon, you’ll gain access to our exclusive Discord server. There, you can connect with fellow artists, ask questions, and receive valuable feedback (sometimes from me).
CAN I HAVE MY MONEY BACK?
If you tried the improvement challenge, and you don't see any improvement, you can have your money back by following these conditions:
• Accomplish the assignments of all the months of the challenge.
• Send me all the studies you made for the assignments.
• If I do not see any improvement, You will have your purchase fully refunded.
Still, I made the challenge myself and many other Souls had a considerable improvement by accomplishing the challenge.
