  • Why is TFC more effective than other methods?

    Training For Comics is more effective than other methods because it is based on an intelligent work plan and constant practice.

    In general one finds on the internet a lot of theory but not a system focused on practice. TFC is like a gym for the artist. Theory is important, but it is only the beginning, our strength is that besides giving you the best theory, we will make you practice from different angles with techniques created and used by great professional artists. The result is that you will see your drawing skills increase in a very short time.

    A lot! Too much, because we want you to practice because we all know it’s the only way to success as an illustrator.

    That’s why you will receive great initial content when you sign up, but more importantly, you will receive new material to practice every week. And on top of that, every month you will receive New Drawing Lessons that include two books, one for theory and one Workbook for practice.

    All of us who were drawing lovers have seen great artists in Comics magazines. And we dreamed that they would teach us directly. Well, that’s what we did 😉.

    At TFC you will learn only with the best. We gathered the greats of the greats to create content on the platform and teach their secrets. Artists like Ariel Olivetti (Known for his work in Marvel Comics, DC Comics and Dark Horse), Horacio Lalia nicknamed “Master of Chiaroscuro” with more than 50 years of trajectory. And many more.

    Of course you can, the only barriers are mental ones. Start today, practice daily and you’ll see excellent results before you know it!
