1 section23 lectures4h 57m total length
  • Introduction1:21

    Explore Blender's procedural shaders with a beginner-friendly, hands-on approach to building lifelike textures and eye-catching visual effects. Master the node-based shading language and math for creating diverse 3D materials.

  • Shader Editor - Basics13:30
  • Shader Types21:50

    Explore Blender shader types across cycles and Eevee, from add and mix to principled, glass, and volume shaders, with tips on roughness and normal maps.

  • PBR Textures11:55
  • Reflection and Roughness4:40
  • Emission Map7:54

    Learn to control emission color with textures by plugging images into emission and base colors, UV unwrap for cycles, and adjust emission strength and color management.

  • Displacement Node4:53

    Explore how the displacement node in the shader editor drives true geometry with PBR textures, using cycles, adaptive subdivision, and displacement settings to vary detail from close to far.

  • Bump Node4:40

    Learn to create realistic surface detail in Blender with the bump node, color ramps, roughness control, and normal maps, using displacement for foreground and bump for background surfaces.
