Improve your understanding and skill to render great materials in your art!

Taught by MTG and D&D illustrator Clint Cearley, the Materials Course gives you the breakdown of the factors that make materials look authentic. A common problem in material rendering is everything sharing a similar plastic-like appearance which is a major point this course examples and addresses. With this knowledge, you'll know what to look for in your references and you'll be better equipped to create believable materials without direct reference.
This course is designed for the self-study artist. Each lesson is a 1080p video and comes with homework assignments and a homework review video where Clint critiques a student's completed homework. It is intended for the artist to watch the video lesson, complete the homework assignments, then watch the homework review video to aid in the self-critique of their assignments.
The course is also aimed for artists that have foundational drawing skills and a working understanding of basic perspective.
"Clint's videos are amazing, discussing about something that is often overlooked by others which is important. I always feel at sync with the topic he is discussing and he hammers the nail where it hits the mark and needed the most attention for a stronger foundation." -Marfrey
