    how do these classes work. seeing as I am very interested in doing book covers, this class seems like a must. you pay for them then wait for the day then.....? Is it a downloaded movie? is it access to a live discussion and webcam?

    They will use live streaming on Saturday, where you can watch Jon work and ask questions... no downloading, but you can re watch until 30 days after Saturday.

    So, how will we be able to see it via 'On Demand' for the next 30 days or will you be using the new tech?

    I actually think it's kinda interesting that you signed up just to thank my post and then copy and paste it into your first and only post. Not quite sure what to make of it.

    For anyone who is on the edge about taking this class, do it! Mr Foster is of course an awe-inspiring illustrator, but I took his portfolio review session with Carl Dobsky, and Mr Foster is an amazing teacher with a lot of insight to helping you improve your work.

    I got my code. I love all the classes but I always have to be so selective with which one I'll buy. If only they were 50$ instead of 95 a class then I'd probably buy more... *sigh* - just thought I'd put it out there. Looking forward to Saturday nonetheless.

    RE: Jon foster

    I would love to attend !!!

    Is there any catch for viewers in Europe (will the streaming still work properly, I don't want to pay 95 bucks for a unstable connection)

    Can anyone tell me if they have experience with viewing in Europe (i'm in Belgium btw)

    Thx in advance !

    Hey! Sorry for not being online much that National Geographic illustration is still kicking my butt! But (hopefully) I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel as well as having received some cool new projects, things I will be able to share when in process. I'm looking forward to working with you all and making (hopefully) some good art.

    To any of you from BYU Holla! There's allot of talent roaming around on campus.

    I'm going to try and make this Saturday. Sounds fantastic.

    Jon, are you presently (and specifically Sat.) working all digital for your finish work painting or are you using any oil painting and traditional work?
