I'm not a media publisher, but if I were I'd be all over you to publish a book/dvd (or e-book / movie download) focused on ID sketching, because that'd be what all college kids want. Seeing someone draw makes wonders to your own abilities, simple as it may sound.

Well, that was a long comment. I'd love to chat with you about ID, sketching and teaching, but that'd better be over some beers or videogames, or both. If you ever find yourself down here in Brazil, be sure to drop me a line!

This looks cool and dynamic, but your marker sketches trump any of your SBP sketches.
