The Gnomon Workshop - Real-Time VFX Fundamentals for Unreal Engine 5
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Level up your real-time VFX fundamentals with senior VFX artist Tobias Ahlgren Cederlöf as he breaks down the foundations of making great effects for games — while also analyzing what can make game FX not-so-great for comparison. This workshop offers a great introduction of the key concepts that aspiring VFX artists should follow, while also proving to be a helpful refresher and source of inspiration for experienced artists.
Using nothing but basic elements including sprites, meshes, and animated materials, Tobias creates a multi-stage anime-inspired effect while focusing on the fundamental animation principles coined by animators at Walt Disney Studios many years ago. By completing this workshop, artists will have learned what goes into making great effects at the very core, without needing fancy tech or complicated pipelines.
To fully enjoy this workshop, you simply need Unreal Engine 5 and some basic knowledge of what makes up a real-time effect, like emitters, particles and sprites. All of the textures and meshes Tobias created for this workshop are provided as a downloadable resource (source textures and .fbx meshes) for CGPeers.
The Gnomon Workshop - Creating 3D Environment Concepts with Mood & Story
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Learn how to effectively communicate stories and evoke emotions with your 3D environment concepts. In this 4.5-hour workshop by Concept Artist Andy Walsh, you’ll discover the process he’s refined through a decade of experience to design environments that can draw the audience into an environment to establish an emotional connection.
Beginning with reference gathering and quick sketches, Andy walks through his process for gauging the direction of the environment, and determining what needs to be created in 3D. From there, he uses a combination of Adobe Medium, 3D-Coat, Blender, and a little ZBrush, to put together an intriguing story moment to invoke curiosity in the viewer. You’ll discover how Adobe Medium can be used to block-in an entire environment with surprising ease, and learn how you can quickly and effectively add realism to your digital sculpts using 3D-Coat. You’ll also practice harnessing the power of Quixel MegaScans to blend your 3D creations with natural assets. Andy’s workflow also includes his simple process for inserting characters with the help of Mixamo and Sketchfab.

ZooTools Pro 2.9.0a [Maya] + Hive Training
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
The latest version of Zoo Tools Pro fully supports Maya 2025 with Qt6 for all UIs. This release is the first to be compatible with Maya 2025, and all tools are up and running in this version.
Please note that Hive rigs created in previous Maya and Zoo Tools versions may need to be updated to be compatible with 2025. See below.
Enhancement: Full Maya 2025 Support
This version is fully compatible with Maya 2017-2025; all tools will be supported in 2025. Hive Autorigger is 2020+, and Chat GPT is 2022+.
Bug Fix: smooth Skin Weights (Brave Rabbit)
We fixed a bug in the Zoo UI for the third-party Smooth Skin Weights tool. Strength was previously being set incorrectly while flooding.
Import Note: Hive Autorigger
Rigs created in previous versions of Zoo Tools may need to be upgraded before coming to Maya 2025. This is due to a minor Hive bug that the earlier versions of Maya accepted, but unfortunately, 2025 does not.

Arroway - Veneers Complete Edition (Remastered)
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
The most complete and versatile wood veneer texture collection on the market.
Containing 111 different wood species from all over the world, this collection is truly unique in its level of texture quality and range of available veneer styles.
Why this remaster?
Our original Wood Veneers series was released between 2008 and 2010 to great success. It is still the most complete and, in our opinion, best collection of wood textures on the market.
But a lot has changed since then in the 3D visualization business. Unbiased rendering gained market dominance which lead to a much greater focus on physical realism in general.
Even in real-time visualization, physically based rendering is now a common approach.
We have also learned a lot in the past years and developed new methods and techniques to capture materials and create textures that allow for photo-real rendering results.
We therefore decided to use that knowledge and experience to produce an updated version of our veneer collection; to bring the textures up-to-date with our current workflow and the standard of quality for which we aim.
Proko - Josh Black - The Anatomy Survival Guide
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
This course is what I've learned about anatomy from over a decade of being an artist, all boiled down to a "survival" guide for drawing human anatomy. It's a straightforward way to get you started with the basics. If you sign up, you'll dive into each part of the body in bits that are easy to handle. We're talking about the head, torso, arms, and legs, and yes, that includes both male and female forms.
I put these lessons together to highlight how key it is to know the bones and muscles underneath to nail dynamic and realistic human figures. And don't get me started on gesture drawing—it's a big deal here because it's all about getting the feel of human movement down.
Each part of this course is aimed at giving artists the tools to add those anatomical details to their work, no matter if you're into illustration, concept art, or 3D modeling. This stuff will help you get a solid grip on human anatomy for all kinds of artistic projects.

Question: “Generative Fill” and “Generative Expansion” do not work for me. Is it possible to somehow solve this issue?
Answer: After beta testing of Firefly AI ended, Adobe developers decided to tighten the screws. Currently, only people who have actually paid for a subscription can use generative tools. And even then, they have restrictions on the number of generations. Also, generative tools can be used during a free trial period of 7 days. That is, if you really need generative tools, then register a new ID on the Adobe website and log in to the program using the Help->Sign In menu. After 7 days, register a new ID. And so on until you get tired of it. There are no other ways, unfortunately.

The Gnomon Workshop - Creating a Hero Weapon for Games
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Take a deep dive into the creation process of making next-gen, production-ready weaponry and prop art for games. Follow along as Thomas Butters, Lead Weapon & Prop Artist at Facepunch Studios, shares his knowledge, workflow, and tips for producing high-quality art, starting from the very beginning stage of reference gathering through to rendering beautiful portfolio shots, covering everything in-between. Join Tom as he takes you through the entire modeling process in Blender, starting with the creation of a blockout mesh using the power of booleans while meticulously adhering to reference materials. Tom will then transition to mid-poly modeling, where he fine-tunes the details and demonstrates effective sub-divisional modeling techniques. Next, the model is taken into ZBrush where Tom blends accurate references with artistic freedom to create a high-poly model. From there, he showcases industry-standard techniques to efficiently and accurately create the low-poly model using the mid-poly mesh as a base. He also transforms the typically dreaded tasks of UV unwrapping, and baking textures in Marmoset Toolbag into enjoyable and straightforward processes. The final stage of this 6.5-hour workshop covers the creation of believable, detailed materials from scratch. Tom guides you through using projected alphas and hand-painted scratchwork to elevate the final look of your weapon or prop, ensuring a polished and professional result. To wrap up, we takes some time to create beautiful renders in Marmoset Toolbag, helping you to craft stunning portfolio pieces that showcase your work at its best. While this 6.5-hour workshop uses various add-ons for Blender, students can still follow along using vanilla settings. The knowledge and techniques are all easily accessible for all experience levels and can be used in other modeling applications, too. Tom has provided his Marmoset Toolbag presentation scene, Substance file, and PureRef image board for CGPeers to enjoy as downloadable project files.
