This class was so challenging for me.  I had to stop myself several times from using the glausian blur to do my shading.  Though I had to struggle through the first few, I finally got the hang of shading with the textures.  I really do like the effect.  Plus, I also forced myself to create and limit myself to four colors as most retro art seems to be really limited.  Thanks for this wonderful class.
