Using 3D Techniques with Digital Painting
December 4th
3D tools aren’t just for 3D artists - when used right, they can elevate 2D paintings to a whole new level. Using 3D Techniques with Digital Painting by Marco Bucci teaches 2D artists how to integrate Blender into their workflow, adding depth and realism without losing the painterly touch. You’ll learn essential 3D tools, blend 3D modeling with hand-painted elements, and explore advanced 2.5D matte painting techniques for a cinematic effect.
There are no absolute requirements, but I do recommend having a tablet (a product like Wacom or Huion, for example) as well as a digital painting application.
If you’re interested in painting, I think the best place to begin is at my YouTube channel. I have many short lessons there covering a whole slew of important art fundamentals. Then I recommend purchasing the videos in the Digital Painting series, as those videos feature in-depth demonstrations, in real time, of which fundamentals I am applying, and how I am applying them.
Understanding and Painting the Head is also a good choice for beginners who have a little bit of drawing experience, but want to know how to take the next steps and develop good habits.
Illustrating Children’s Books will take you through many important fundamental drawing and painting lessons, applicable to any project or medium.
