Texturing is one of the most crucial stages in 3D art, and Substance Painter has become the industry standard for creating high-quality, production-ready textures. Substance Painter Texturing for Beginners: Master PBR & Hand-Painted Assets is designed to give aspiring 3D artists the skills and confidence needed to texture a wide range of models, from realistic props to stylized assets.

You will start by learning the fundamentals of Substance Painter, including navigation, interface tools, and how to set up your projects. From there, you’ll dive into practical, hands-on projects that will guide you step by step through baking mesh maps, applying masks, layering textures, and creating polished 3D assets. By working on models like a rotary phone, hand-painted books, and custom environments, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of both realistic PBR workflows and stylized hand-painted techniques.

The course also explores advanced texturing methods such as creating custom materials, using subsurface scattering (SSS) for organic assets, and building detailed environments with layered surfaces. You’ll learn how to texture skin, eyes, hair, and props, as well as how to export and render professional textures for your portfolio or client work. By the end of the course, you’ll have the technical skills and artistic knowledge to create visually stunning textures for games, animations, and films.
