Fun, fast course. Only suggestion is to expand your course to add a small interaction between the girl and male character developed in the first course. Something simple. For example; using the tent scene you've already created as a background, have the gentlemen on scene in the foreground with an active campfire complete with smoke. Girl walks on scene and ask "How did you like my course?" Boy responses "Great!". Girl says "Long day. Let's turn in." Fade scene.

Hi, I'm George Grancharov and I teach people cartoon drawing skills. 
Drawing is a skill that can help you solve almost every problem.
If you learn how to draw better, you will think better!

I'm best known for my course "Cartoon Drawing For Absolute Beginners" that teaches what the title says :D

"Draw, Think and Build!"
