Learn how to texture and render a hero asset from start to finish for video games & film. You’ll learn techniques like Anchor Point usage, Custom Alpha Painting, Lighting and Rendering, Unique Texturing, and so much more!
SUBSTANCE 3D PAINTER, ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR, AND MARMOSET.
All the texturing will be done in Adobe Substance 3D Painter, and the rendering will be done in marmoset toolbag 4. We will also make use of Adobe Illustrator to create custom alphas.
In this course, you will learn everything you need to know to create the final results that you see in the images and trailers. Next to this, the same techniques can be applied to almost any type of model.
18+ HOURS!
This course contains over 18+ hours of content – You can follow along with every single step – The course does enclose a few small-time lapses. This is just to speed up very repetitive tasks, the rest is done in real-time.
We will start by going over some baking errors you may encounter and how to fix them. Then we will first create all of our height information in order to facilitate our use of anchor points. We will then proceed to create our base materials, add storytelling in the form of wear&tear, cryon drawings, and more, we will create various bits of text in Adobe Illustrator to use on our model and do some final polish.
Once that is done, we will export all the artwork to Marmoset Toolbag 4 and set up our lighting and cameras for render.
SKILL LEVEL
This asset texturing course is perfect for students who have some familiarity with texturing, Substance 3D Painter, and Marmoset – Everything in this tutorial will be explained in detail. However, if you have never touched any modeling or texturing tools before, we recommend that you first watch an introduction tutorial of those programs (you can find many of these for free on YouTube or paid on this very website)
