Hi Thiago, I have some questions for you about the Master Edition. 1. Could I work on my own project? I mean, could I design my own level with my own assets and share it with you for your feedback, or will I have to work in a Spanish city similar to yours? 2. How long will we be able to attend the monthly calls? I don't know if there is a time limit to develop the project in order to receive your feedback. Thank you very much for your time and for sharing your valuable knowledge with us😁

Hey Paola! Good questions :) 1) Absolutely, that's the goal! The point is that you will create your own environment, with your own ideas. In the tutorial, I show you how to develop original ideas of your own, and translate them to 3D, so you can make almost any kinds of environments. Of course if you choose some super exotic theme, or something that looks drastically different than the Spanish Town, you will have a harder time. But everyone in the group so far is making different environments with different themes :) 2) I don't have a time limit for the master edition users. I will do one monthly call per month as long as I can do it. Hopefully years :) Even if, at some point, I switch to a subscription model, anyone who gets the Master edition now will have access perpetually. No matter what, whoever gets in now will get my support to succeed. You just have to work hard. Hope to see you there! It's a really cool group of people, and I'm sure you will enjoy it if you love working hard and challenging yourself!

Hey Thiago, I've had my eye on this course for a little bit and it seems incredible! Thank you so much for putting your knowledge out there for others to learn. I recently graduated university with a basic degree in Digital Arts. I've been working in 3D for most of college and while I learned a lot, I feel like I didn't get the knowledge or learn the workflows from industry professionals to really elevate my craft. I have loved working on environments in Unreal so I think this would be a great course for me. However, my end goal in the industry is to get a job in Tech Art. I know a lot of Environment Artists switch over to tech art, so as someone who is looking to eventually get into the field, do you think I would find this course useful? I know you aren't teaching tech art specific skills in this course, but learning the workflows of an environment artist and applying other tech art principles (tools, shaders, etc.) I think could be extremely useful. Let me know what you think :)

@@craigjohndesign hey Craig, congrats on your recent graduation! That’s an interesting question. I don’t dive super deep into tech art related subjects, but there are valuable videos on workflows and optimization. The value the course can provide to you is a deep understanding of an industry level environment art workflow. Each studio will work in a different way, but some aspects of env art creation are somewhat universal. As a tech artist who focuses on tech art for environments, you will be miles ahead of the competition if you know the process well. The best env technical artists are usually those who were env artists before, if you understand the process you will understand the typical pain points and will be better able to serve the env art team. Hope that helps and best luck with your career! Cheers

Several people successfully did, but it depends how experienced you are with Blender. If you are complete a beginner, you will probably have a hard time, but if you have some experience, it should be a breeze. I don't use any Maya specific tools and I'm mostly doing simple operations, such as extruding, cuting, beveling etc... the one thing that people always have question about is how to maintain the texel density. For that, there's this amazing Blender script: renderhjs.net/textools/blender/

This looks neat! But one question tho, does the standard version of the course includes the asset making section? I've bought an environment course before, and they're a bit over reliant on using 3rd party assets for their environments, and made the course less of a environment making course because you only learn how to assemble premade assets plus bare-basic lighting and composition theory. And there's nothing wrong in using someone else's assets, it's just that when you're working in an industry, you're bound to have to create an asset of your own, unique to the project your clients ask you to make, in which you cannot found a premade asset of it anywhere on the web. I know its a drawn out question but just want to make sure.
@TKEnvironments
@TKEnvironments 11 ай бұрын
In that case I recommend the advanced version. The standard version contains the full course, which teaches you the process for making your own environments. It's like a self-mentorship program. I explain the steps, and it's up to the user to execute. The advanced version not only includes all the source files, but also a ton of videos on how specific assets were made. The only ones not covered are the foliage, which I used from a pack. Hope that helps, cheers!

Hey Bruno! I use Maya but lots of people who got the tutorial use Blender and they are following it no problem. The point is more on workflow and technique, and those are mostly software-agnostic. There's a video in the beginning where I show the tools I use in Maya. People like to look for the same ones in Blender and replicate the workflow. If you get the version with discord access, there's quite some help there when it comes to Blender :) Cheers!

@TKEnvironments
@TKEnvironments Жыл бұрын
Hello! It's not a noob question at all. The course is about developing your own environment art workflow, a set of steps that you can take to create any environments. If I was making a horror environment using the tutorial, I'd follow the same steps, but change the variables (lighting, architecture, texturing style etc...) to fit the horror theme. The process is roughly the same. Check out the 1 year anniversary video to see the range of different environments created with the course: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gn23n5lqd9Snm9k Cheers!

@TKEnvironments
@TKEnvironments Жыл бұрын
Hey there! I show how to do Vertex Blending in the traditional way via materials, and also with Layered Materials. As for RGB Masks, do you mean baking a unique RGB mask with Substance Painter to drive the material blends? If so, I didn't use that in the project because it's extremely annoying to send files back and forth to Substance Painter to generate masks... way overkill for what I was going for here, and an absolute nightmare to iterate on models (unless you automate this process heavily, which I have only seen top tier studios have technical artists with with the knowledge and skill necessary to create such a system). Or do you mean something else with RGB Mask ? :) Anyways, I use material blending heavily in the map, but I kept it simple, only two layers (for example plaster and stone) and an overlay texture on top (for gradients and drips). All explained ver well in the tutorial :) Best regards,

@@3TQHAJSHNQ when the course originally released, the standard version was cheaper but only had parts of the course.

That’s on top of all the new videos I’ve added since (like the Unity videos I added recently). I’m now picking up Blender, and sometime in the near future I’m going to add Blender tutorials too. It’s a living course and the price bump reflects getting a lot more value than originally with the new content :) I understand it can get pricy for some countries due to currency ratios but it’s an investment that pays itself back many times over over the years :) cheers!

Hello, there's a lot more information on the gumroad page about the content. The course is about the environment art process, and of course, it's impossible to cover everything in one single package. While I cover texturing and prop creation for example, I assume you already know how to make simple things. I'm not teaching the software from scratch, but showing how I use them. As long as you can make simple buildings and textures already ,the course will be wonderful. Otherwise I'd recommend to start with my other free course, make an office tutorial, as that one assumes the user knows absolutely nothing about environment art

I also plan to include some videos explaining the differences between the engines. The differences boil down to how one imports meshes, and sets up lighting.
