Course Description

When working with organic surfaces such as trees, grass, dirt, wood and stone, the rules and software techniques that professionals use may require a unique approach. This course will cover advanced techniques and software used to create these sort of assets for games. This in-depth course covers everything you need to know about creating foliage! We'll look into how to make realistic looking grass, branches, and a full tree from the ground up. In this course, instructor Emiel Sleegers is going to walk us through the process of learning the SpeedTree to CryEngine pipeline while utilizing Maya as the middle-man 3D package for exporting. Emiel Sleegers will go over on how to make a terrain using both Mudbox and World Machine. Moving on from there, Philipp Schmidt is going to give us an introduction to PixPlant while showing us how to make some basic tileable textures.

    Course Description

    In the second part of Master the Hand-Painted Texturing Style, we will utilize a combination of Maya and Photoshop to take a concept for a stylized weapon and translate that into a fully realized low poly hand painted asset for use within a videogame environment. We'll also take a look at some of the process and techniques used to create the texture map, being sure to replicate the crafted look of the concept. Tools such as clipping masks, Variations and Dilation will be utilized to help keep our texture easy to maintain and looking neat for potential future revisions. Throughout the creation process we'll also touch upon how things relate to a production environment whilst also pointing out any areas which are likely to generate the need for some problem solving. At the end of this course you will be able to create and understand the workflow that I use to create stylized environments like this one.  Learn tips and tricks of creating dynamic animation and games design. - Know about the different branches in animation - Learn about what goes into making a successful animation - Understand better about the designing process with this course - Be able to create your own monsters and creatures at the end of this course

    Course Description

    This course will start with an introduction and teaches many of the advanced techniques talented artists use to create this style of 3d asset. We'll show you the creation process for low poly weapons with a strong emphasis on hand painted texture maps. We'll begin by modelling a sword in Maya 2011, show the unwrapping process, and take you step-by-step through creating hand-painted, stylized textures for both a sword and a shield asset. Following that, we'll dive into reviewing the concept art and blocking out some base shapes, and from there jump into the wonderful world of UV unwrapping. Next, we'll be taking a look at the different stone, metal, and wood surface types we'll be painting, discuss and decide where we can save some texture resolution by sharing UV space, and then get moving on bringing the texture and visual look and feel.
