“In this third Fundamentals tutorial, we will look in-depth into how to generate a variety of Voronoi cell patterns. We’ll learn how to utilize these patterns with several essential nodes, including the powerful Flood Fill node. Understanding how to create these patterns is extremely useful when building organic materials. Combined with the Flood Fill node, you will learn how to build natural shapes efficiently. We’ll also learn how to create utility nodes to speed up your workflow. By the end of this tutorial, you will be able to build natural looking rock formations.” [Read more…]

Course description:
Substance Designer is a powerful, procedurally based tool for creating textures for 3D art and games. Learn the essentials of Substance Designer 2018, in this introductory training course. Instructor Joel Bradley begins with an overview of a prebuilt Substance graph, demonstrating the strengths and nondestructive workflow of Substance Designer. He covers basics, such as navigating the substance Designer interface, adjusting important preferences, importing meshes and maps, and using the 2D, 3D, and Graph views. He then moves onto the large array of essential “atomic” nodes in Substance Designer, including the Blend, Curve, Slope Blur, Normal, Gradient, and Water Level nodes. These nodes comprise the heart of the Substance Designer workflow. Then learn how to create a custom environmental panorama from scratch, and explore more advanced topics such as MDL materials, functions, and FX-Maps. Finally, Joel closes out the course by putting a substance to use, showing how to import a substance package into a game engine such as Unreal Engine 4.

Title: 3DMotive – Grenade Asset in Substance Volume 2
Info:
In Grenade Asset in Substance Painter, we start off with what it takes to model an asset. From there, we will model a block mesh in order to make sure our scale and everything is looking right before spending too much time on it. we’ll then make a high poly mesh from the block mesh using subdivision modeling techniques. Next, we go over the process of UVing and creating smoothing groups for our model so we get clean bakes. I will then take them into Substance Painter 2 to bake our maps for use in easy procedural texture creation. To wrap it up we will take our model into Marmoset Toolbag 3 and set up a material and lighting for our beauty renders. Along the way I will give advice and my expertise on what it takes to be a production artist. There’s a lot of great stuff to learn here, so don’t miss it! [Read more…]
