    It has been an incredible experience to be a part of this course! It really made me push to the next level! I´m very grateful to Marlon and all of you for the inspiration fellas!
  • Josh Linao, Australia
    Art Heroes student, 2021
    The amount of knowledge and growth I experienced in my skill set has been exponential. Lots of learning material and detailed explanations. I literally went from zero to hero during the course.
  • Francesco Gianfreda, Italy
    Art Heroes student, 2021
    If I could finish with a nice result I think that everyone can. And that's because of the course, which explains perfectly every passage so that it fits every kind of level.
    The feedback from the instructors motivated me to do better and better.

What to expect on the
Program
You can expect a deep dive into facial anatomy and sculpting.

As you progress through the course, you will be applying the skills you learn each week to your own project. You will train your artistic eye by looking at other projects from your intake.

To make sure you're on track, your instructor will be providing critique. By the end of 12 weeks, you will deliver a finished Likeness of your chosen character.

You'll then receive a shiny new certification badge to celebrate your new skill!

Our students' feedback
  • I think Art Heroes have some great content, good instructors, and an awesome way to let artists join together on a common goal. Art Heroes actually push artists to get to know one another, and that's something I haven't seen on other courses.
    Hugo Sena, Canada/France
    Art Heroes student, 2021
  • I drastically increased my skills in the time and the structure was fantastic for someone who is working long hours already.
    The sculpting side of things was a 10/10.
    Christopher Beese, the US
    Art Heroes student, 2021
  • Great instruction, good pacing, discounts, extra bonus classes, tool tips, community

    Kam Yu
