Academy · Choosing
Private vs group camouflage training: which suits you?
Both formats teach the same craft. The difference is pace, attention and who you learn alongside.

1:1 private training
- Paced entirely to you
- Every correction is yours, in the moment
- Flexible scheduling
- Strong choice for complete beginners and for artists who want to specialise fast

“In the beginning, your portfolio is everything. People need to see your work before they trust you with their skin.”
Evelyn Alvares Vega, SKINEAV Academy
Small-group training (up to 5)
- You see more cases and more skin tones as others work
- Questions from other students teach you too
- You build a network of peers
- Fixed group dates
