      As I want to draw the best planning for myself, so thinking of best way to watch classes and do assignments, I think the most efficient route for everyone is this one:

      Developing Art fundamentals

      1. How to draw everything
      2. Mastering perspective
      3. Light and shadow
      4. Working with color + Painting color and light
      5. Creative composition

      Mastering Digital Tools:

      1. Beggining photoshop
      2. Painting in photoshop
      3. Creating custom pencils in photoshop
      4. 10 step digital painting
      5. Drawing with digital pencils
      6. Sketching in Zbrush

      Mixed media:

      1. Mixed media, water colors + digital
      2. Let it glow

      Advanced digital painting:

      1. Painting fur and hair

      Design: (Environment + figure drawing + characterization)

      1. Creative environment design
      2. Posing characters
      3. Breathing Life Into your Character Designs
      4. Drawing Heroes and Sidekicks + Drawing Robots and Machinery + Drawing villains and monsters

      Finally;
      Drawing comics

      Ilustratring children's books

      And I want to do all this classes in a month... (will be moar)

        Woah!!! Great list and good luck this month. THAT is a ton of info. Keep us posted on your progress.

        One thing I'd change though is I'd make How to Draw Everything your first class, then go into Mastering Perspective.

              I'd like to suggest the "Chaos to Control: Creating custom photoshop brushes" in the "mastering digital tools section. Probably right after "Painting in Photoshop".

                @Lee-White prob better that way

                And also mixed media could be done even before Painting in photoshop

                        I went through and made a syllabus for myself too! Good luck doing it all in one month! but be careful, it's a lot of information to absorb and we artists learn best by the practice we do after the class!
