MATERIAL RENDERING though PROPS
Skill Level: Intermediate | Instructor: Clint Cearley | Duration: 8 lessons (avg. 1.75 hours each)
PAINT BELIEVABLE MATERIALS AND FUN FANTASY PROPS
You'll learn how to paint 10 distinct materials such as leather, brass, glass, rock, and iron and we'll cover the factors that give materials their unique look so you can apply the points to your own work after the course.
Paint-alongs are included throughout the lessons where we will paint together in real-time as I guide you through the processes you'll use in your homework.
The individual studies will culminate into illustrating a customized fantasy multi-prop arrangement!
