This week marks a huge milestone for Tuts+ learning as we celebrate the release of our 500th video course!
From our humble beginnings way back in 2007 we’ve grown to incorporate 10 different creative and technical topics including Code, Web Design, Design & Illustration and Photography. We now house an extensive library of more than 19,000 free tutorials to help you build real life skills, and more than 190 downloadable eBooks.
For those who love the hands on approach to learning, our most popular channel remains our short video courses. We’ve had 111 instructors, to date, from around the world contributing to the collection and taking you through their favourite programs and techniques, step by step.
Together they’ve produced 9213 individual lessons, 77,315 minutes or 53 days of content!
To honor the publication of our 500th video, Creative Vector Hair by Sharon Milne, we’ve made the 18 lessons in this course free for one week only. Which makes this the perfect opportunity for you to develop a new skill, or to experience our video course learning for the first time. For free!
Plus, as a special bonus, we’re also giving away three free files from some of our wonderful Envato Market authors to help you with your future design projects. Get in quick, because this offer is limited and will finish Sunday 29 March.
About the Course
In this course you will learn how to create five different hairstyles from scratch, and then go on to create a series of variations. In total, there are 19 end results to this course. The aim is to arm you with the skill set to be able to render your own hairstyle creations without needing a reference image. This course is ideal for all digital artists, although it's specifically aimed at those with an advanced knowledge of Adobe Illustrator.
