Luca’s Journey Towards Becoming an Industrial Designer
Hi, my name is Lucas Hippolyte,
I am a VIP member of the Sketch Like The Pros course. I am from France.
I’ve been working towards attending design school and becoming an industrial designer for the past 3 years. For the first 2 years, I researched design sketching. I looked at many sketches and tried to reproduce them and turn them into concepts. However, without much success. During that time, my skills weren’t growing, and I became very stagnant.
Searching for Resources and Discovering The Design Sketchbook
After that, I tried looking for tutorials and blogs about design sketching to improve my skills and motivate myself. That is when I discovered The Design Sketchbook blog. A short while later, Chou-Tac released his course: Sketch Like The Pros, and I thought I could take the course to help me develop and hone my skills.
Progress and Experience With Sketch Like The Pros
After 7 months with the course, I am proud to say that I’ve made much progress. Sketch Like The Pros is well structured, and it allows me to grow at my own pace. Chou-Tac is also very quick to respond to our assignments and gives us feedback quickly.
New Techniques and Motivation
The course has motivated me to achieve my goals and has taught me many new sketching techniques such as perspectives and shadows. I started the course as a beginner in design sketching, and now I hope to finish it with more knowledge that will benefit me in the future.
Thank you for listening! See you soon!

UPDATE: Lucas successfully graduated from ISD Rubika Design School. Congratulation!
