CGCookie - Fundamentals of Shading in Blender 2.7

CGCookie - Fundamentals of Shading in Blender 2.7

https://cgcookie.com/courses/fundamentals-of-shading

  • Shading for Cycles Shaders control the way light interacts with your model. This is very important because light interaction is what determines whether your object is transparent and glass-like, hard and metallic, shiny like plastic, or translucent like wax. In this course you will first learn how to construct materials for the Cycles physically-based render engine.
  • You will see how to navigate and function inside the node editor, mix basic shader components together, as well as construct a practical material using multiple material layers influenced by image textures. These principles will establish the shader foundation you will need to construct any kind of Cycles material you can imagine.
  • Shading for Blender Render After the Cycles chapters, an equivalent fundamental education follows in context of Blender's legacy render engine: Blender Render. You will see how to function in the Material and Texture panel as opposed to the Node Editor with Cycles. This engine is not a physically-based and thus lends itself to NPR (non-photo-realistic) rendering. CC Music: "Home Tonight" by DoKashiteru

https://www.cgcircuit.com/course/concept-selection-3d-character-art

Category: Sculpting | Total Duration: 48m 45s | Level: Everybody | Language: English

  • In this tutorial you will learn the importance of the concept selection at the moment of creating a 3D character, what makes this character appealing and what makes a 3D character piece successful. This course has been designed for beginners but it also will help to refresh some concepts for intermediate artists. This is the first of a series of tutorials where we will create a full 3D character ready for production. This series of tutorials will increase its complexity on each of them finishing with an intermediate or advanced level final piece.
  • After viewing this course, people can expect to be able to choose the right concepts for their next portfolio 3D pieces and with this, start with the right feet on the process of getting a job in the industry or just making a successful 3D character art piece. I am a designer, 3D Character and asset artist from Argentina working freelance for different industries, I love to work on realistic characters and I try to push my limits in each piece. One of my latest projects was the “Bedouin Elf ''. With this project, I was lucky enough to get it selected on the Zbrush Summit 2020 Highlights and that gave me a lot of exposure. For this project the concept selection was a key and really exciting part of the process and I am glad to share with you my thought process behind it.

Believe In Boudoir - Boudoir with Argus C3

https://tv.believeinboudoir.com/courses/boudoir-with-argus-c3

1+ HOURS 8 LESSONS  6 VIDEOS

The Argus C3, nicknamed "The Brick" for its solid, boxy design, is a 35mm rangefinder camera produced from 1939 to 1966 by Argus Corporation in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Known for its reliability, affordability, and simplicity, it became a favorite among everyday photographers. The C3 features an easy-to-use focusing system, making it ideal for those who wanted to take pictures without fuss. Its interchangeable lens system added versatility, typically paired with a 50mm f/3.5 Coated Cintar lens. While additional lenses like the 35mm wide-angle or 100mm telephoto offered more options, the viewfinder wasn’t perfectly aligned with the lens, but photographers adapted to this quirk. Over 2 million units were sold, making it one of the best-selling cameras of all time. Notably, World War II photographer Tony Vaccaro used a C3 during the war and later in his fashion photography career. Today, the Argus C3 is a beloved vintage camera, prized by collectors for its nostalgia and rugged charm, with prices ranging from $50 to $150 depending on condition and accessories.
