It was ok and I did pick up some good starting ideas but as many others have mentioned (which would have been great to see the comments before buying the course), the instructor goes very fast and uses a lot of hot keys and doesn't show nor mention at all what he is doing. This was more like just watching someone make a few things rather than being taught and explained how to do those things. I saw many people mention this in the comments but the instructor didn't seem to make any changes in any of the subsequent videos. He said some people found it too slow but I didn't really see any comments to that effect but many many comments expressing my own take aways which were that it was too fast and too many unmentioned hot keys used. If there were any comments indicating that he was going too slow, they were for certain the exception (outliers) not the rule. I found myself playing and replaying the videos at 0.5x speed, while watching the status bar at the bottom of the Inkscape screen to try to get any hints as to what the instructor was actually doing as well as trying to google myself for how to do many of the things he does in the videos. In the end, I did get some value out of this but if I had not bought this course with a significant discount I would be quite displeased with this experience. Other courses I have tried have been much much better.

Course is very informative no fluff or filler only functional and practical information here. I only wish certain parts were expanded upon alittle more. But all in all great course.
