Ну, як підбірка case studies- непогано. Цікава спроба розкрити спрощений процес створення персонажів. Ітерацій, щоправда, малувато, але спишемо це на зговірливого арт-дира.

Круто, що можна відстежити умовний процес мислення артиста під час роботи. Це дуже цікаво та корисно.

Переклад місцями трохи важкий, є мікроогріхи - десь просто одруківка, десь латиницю забули прибрати.

А так ок.
