Improve Your 3d Materials Workflow -- Achieve Photorealism

This course will dive into the details of 3d materials, showing you all the important tips and tricks necessary to achieve photorealism. The course will be demonstrated within 3ds Max, and the textures will primarily be created using V-Ray materials. Other types of shaders will also be demonstrated, but the class generally teaches you principles that can be applied across several different platforms. You will learn settings, shader types, map creation, etc., all while seeing real time demonstrations of materials being created and rendered.

In short, take this course if you want to vastly improve your ability to create photoreal textures, and streamline your workflow.

Here are some of the benefits of this course:

"I must begin saying that over time Adam has gotten better at creating courses and explaining everything in a simplest manner possible.

1. Overall video and audio quality was great.

2. The amount of information was just enough and the quality of it all was amazing. I learned more than i expected to.

Bought it almost as soon as i could knowing that it will for sure be worth it. I'm already planning on recommending it to some people that would love this course and i already can't wait for a course on lighting.

Great job on the course!"

That is a fantastic job and thank you very much for sharing these informations. On section 4 where we talk about the different setting of making a material... i would prefer to see the material changes on interactive render than to material preview to understand better the effect of each one.

By Hector Allier on 8/10/2020

Excellent as always Adam! Great and thoroughly explained course! It allows us to engage into materials, maps and textures to achieve a great model's appeal! Keep up the good teaching!

Muy buena explicacin de conceptos

By Francisco Hernndez on 3/16/2020

Inici bastante bien, veremos como concluye

By Maurizio Gastoni on 3/14/2020

I think this is probably one of the first teaching attempts that Adam did and the technique wasn't too developed yet. I bought this class as i have really appreciated some other course he did, so this isn't a non-constructive critique. I really like the recent contents and teaching techniques, i would probably just remove this because it might put people off from buying the good classes he has made. In terms of content, not great and definitely not intermediate. For my taste a little bit too much of real time making with too many "surprises" to deal with on the go. Just my opinion, go for the recent stuff he has done, that is worth it.

There should be examples of using the created materials in scenes.

By Joseph Huntley on 1/3/2020

Love the way the Instructor is very detailed in his explainations and tells why something will work and not work.

By Batuhan Bardak on 11/18/2019

it is great, anyone can have a good job due to mr. zollinger's courses . sir adam zollinger, please share whole knowledge you know about 3dsmax vray, please

By YoonKyung Choi on 8/13/2019

I enjoyed this lecture, it gave me the information about some materials that i would have never known. although you will have to look up some materials by yourself to get to know it better because he is not handling all the details sometimes. which was not a problem for me. oh but i have to say ,3ds max version he is using in this course is not up to date currently so some options he was explaining is not available anymore in 2019 version. but overall it was helpful for me.
