Welcome to How To Create Incredible Textures Using Adobe Substance 3D, an 8-part series of videos full of tips and tricks for how to use ZBrush, Blender, and Adobe Substance 3D software to take your 3D renders to the next level. The series is hosted by Pablo Muñoz Gómez of ZBrushGuides.com and 3dConceptArtist.com, an expert character designer and 3D workflow educator.
The series covers an entire texturing workflow, including custom ID maps, using height maps, working with custom materials, creating complex-looking materials with simple layers, creating stylized textures for callouts and illustrations, and the best way to export and render your final product.
Over eight videos and blog posts, Pablo went in-depth into how to use Adobe Substance 3D software in combination with Blender and ZBrush. In this post, we’ve gathered links to all of those blog posts so the entire series is here in once place.
