    I didn't know your channel until yesterday. It's the 2nd video I'm seeing and it is really amazing! I would like to draw a comic book and maybe one day some concept art for video games. Your explanations are very interesting because environments are important in story telling and I think defining them will now help me to write an interesting scenario from the general idea of the story. If the action takes place in the future it is indispensable to create the world of the story. Watching your video gave me motivation back to keep on my story with a different but so important angle. Again thanks a lot!
