Why pay for video instruction when there is free online material?
Because this video contains content that is not found anywhere else. This is Dru's very own approach to airbrushing, and his techniques allow a much higher degree of outcome than traditional methods.
Besides, there is a huge amount of misinformation in free online airbrushing courses, which often advocate incorrect methods. Truly, you get what you pay for.
How long will I be able to view the video online?
Forever. You can watch this video again and again, but please bear in mind that this video is not transferable to other parties. It's yours alone to enjoy as often as you like.
Is the video downloadable?
No, but it is available to you online for you to access anytime, and anywhere.
This is a full workshop lesson from beginning to end - Just like being in the classroom with Dru teaching! You see the project as a first-person viewer. The camera is positioned in front of the instructor, not over the shoulder, so you will see the project develop as Dru's eyes would see it.
