great course!
Muy bueno, sencillo y práctico
He aprendido mucho en este curso sobre todo del tema color. Las unidades son claras y concisas. Susimiu explica cada paso.
Splendido, spiegato benissimo, con cura e pazienza. Ho già applicato alcuni punti ad un maglione che stavo già facendo, non ho resistito. Corso straconsigliato a chi comincia e a chi già ci sa fare!
Un curso fantástico, muy bien explicado de principio a fin.
Una recomendación 100%.
