Procedural Shading: Fundamentals and Beyond
Procedural shading is one of the less explored applications of Blender that holds a lot of potential and power if utilized correctly. In this comprehensive training series we will build a solid foundation of the concepts and techniques that we will use to thoroughly explore procedural shading with Blender’s node-based shader editor.
The core part of this course is structured in a series of short 5-10 min videos that focus on important concepts and techniques and are supported by visualization tools and simple examples. Supporting the course as a showcase example is an isometric cube scene that is created using exclusively procedural shaders and only basic modelling techniques.
Training Outline:
Introduction
Fundamentals
Procedural Textures
Shading Principles
Shader Composition
Modular Setup (TBA)
Automation (TBA)
Baking (TBA)
Additionally the course includes multiple workflow examples that go into detail on creating one fully procedural shader each.
Workflow Examples:
Walls
Wood
Dynamic Breaking Walls
Fire (TBA)
Floor Boards (TBA)
Rainy Window (TBA)

Upload Dylan cole’s gnomon classes.. Please!
Thank you very much. Is there other videos to be uploaded?
Great Course! I hope you guys will upload the rest when it is available and Thank you for this.
first thing first… thanks for your work! I want to ask you something about this course: I tried to download all the videos from the top up to the end, but after I have waited 60 seconds, the countdown start again and again.
This happens from the fourth or fifth video until the end. (Te earlier videos this doesn’t happen.
Online-courses.club has set a huge milestone as far as my 3D modelling skills are concerned. Thank you Team! I even bought you guys a cup of coffee.*wink…. Please upload the Hard Surface Rigging course by Creative Shrimp :'(
Hard Surface Rigging In Blender?
Thank you Team very much! My skills improved more . Please upload Chapter 5: Moduler setup of Procedural Shading Fundamentals and Beyond in Blender
I paid for the course, it wasn’t great. Just basic drivers, programming, actions and bones.
It is what it is…
Thank you Team very much! My skills improved more . Please upload Chapter 5: Moduler setup of Procedural Shading Fundamentals and Beyond in Blender
Thank you very much for sharing this course! Please, it would be awesome if you could keep uploading the latest chapters in the series!
Hey straw-berry can you please update the series there have been 2 new chapter added in this course and could you also upload (Fundamentals of Blender Materials and Shading) by cgcookie
