natestephens.gumroad.com/l/uliugq In the two CGMA classes that I recently taught this was the most requested in class lecture by the students. So I figured why not get it out there for anyone interested. This covers a lot, and is much more than a brick wall tutorial. You can use this…

New fundamentals tutorial about using the grid correctly and working with texel density. I was trying to make this free but due to the file size limit of 250mb I had to charge a dollar to make it available... sorry. The Grid and Texel Density on @Gumroad natestephens.gumroad.com/l/oupfyh
