    Ok, here's the thing. This upload has a couple of files missing, but I don't think they're necessary, 4 assignments, 2 classes for setting up a Wacom tablet and 1 video from the last module about sharing your work online.

    Missing Files:
    Module 2: Working with Graphics Tablets
    -Setting up your Wacom tablet
    -Choosing your stylus nibs
    -Assignment 2.1 Setting up your graphics tablet (as I already have a graphics tablet up and running, I don't think I miss much)

    Module 3: Frequency Separation Technique
    -Assignment 3.2 Frequency Separation (this assignment can be inferred by the previous one and the one in the following chapter)

    Module 6: Color Grading
    -Assignment 6 Color Grading (almost all assignments are meant for you to follow and apply what you learned in class, I imagine this one would be the same)

    Module 7: Finalize and Export
    -Sharing Your Retouching Work Online
    -Assignment 7 Final Export (almost all assignments are meant for you to follow and apply what you learned in class, I imagine this one would be the same)

    Review: All in all, it was a good course for a total noob retouching people like me. It assumes you know anything about retouching in general, explains a little bit of LR and CO, then how to export to PS, the tools and how the process of retouching works. Like the tittle says, it is a "jumpstart", it teaches the basics of healing brushes, clone stamp and grafting, frequency separation, dodging and burning, color correction, best practices and not much else.

    It is quick, it is concise and well explained, I'm looking forward to starting the next course.
