It is a good tutorial. But do take it with a pinch of salt, b/c I have already seen some zealots defending this as religion of writing games from scratch as something easy and achievable in short time. It is time consuming and takes lots of practice and tweaking even for seasoned game developer.
And most importantly, if you want to deliver a complete game as single developer/designer, doing it from scratch is probably the wrong path to take. You would have to wear so many other hats besides just game programming.
But if you want to build renderers and learn the craft of rendering stuff in low level. Or you are doing as a hobby without intention to deliver a complete game with rich content, then this tutorial is good for ya!
