    Blender Tip - Camera Shift for Architecture Renders
    In this quick tip I'll show you a simple option in your camera properties that you can use to maintain a two-point perspective to get a cleaner and more professional look for your architecture renders.While three-point perspective renders can be awesome, they also can negatively impact the look of architecture. This leads to problems like slanted walls which can affect the feeling of space for interiors. That's why it's common practice to keep a two-point perspective to maintain perfect vertical structures like walls, and this typically produces a more professional result.Check out https://cgmasters.com for more courses and tutorials.Like the tutorial and want to leave a tip?PayPal - https://www.paypal.me/cgmasterscom Bitcoin - bc1qh2cx8kz4wjj855cruk2sfwftl69vmmuau94w9vEthereum - 0xfb2D6886347434Eb2DACde22C6b96889dDAE6255XRP - r4A4bxQ5wK8R1rEhecgvTy1wSXoCfoE42bDogecoin - DLDZ8fngi4KJkNnHQafV4vxDwaPzZ7e92W

    Procedural Carbon Fiber Shader - Part 1 (Cycles & Eevee Compatible)
    The Blender Encyclopedia is finally out! See more about it here - https://cgmasters.com/the-blender-encyclopedia/ This is part 1 of a step by step project from our new course, The Blender Encyclopedia. This course is a comprehensive reference guide for the software and includes step by step projects for all skill levels.Part 1 covers creating a shader that's compatible with both Eevee and Cycles.Check out Part 2 here, where we go over adding anisotrophy in Cycles for a more realistic reflection effect for the carbon fiber - https://youtu.be/0N57VknbLZY In this free lecture from the course we'll be building a fully procedural carbon fiber shader from start to finish. This shader will include a height map for the fibers that we'll convert into a normal map. It'll also include customizable options such as shadowing for the fibers, a brushed metal texture finish, clearcoat, and the ability to switch between 2 different weave patterns.Check out https://cgmasters.com for more courses and tutorials.Like the tutorial and want to leave a tip?PayPal - https://www.paypal.me/cgmasterscom Bitcoin - bc1qh2cx8kz4wjj855cruk2sfwftl69vmmuau94w9vEthereum - 0xfb2D6886347434Eb2DACde22C6b96889dDAE6255XRP - r4A4bxQ5wK8R1rEhecgvTy1wSXoCfoE42bDogecoin - DLDZ8fngi4KJkNnHQafV4vxDwaPzZ7e92W

    Procedural Carbon Fiber Shader - Part 2 (Anisotrophy in Cycles)
    The Blender Encyclopedia is finally out! See more about it here - https://cgmasters.com/the-blender-encyclopedia/ This is the second part of the Carbon Fiber series, where we'll increase the realism of our shader by using the Principled node's Anisotropic option to get a more true-to-life reflection effect for the carbon fiber. This only takes a couple extra steps and the results are totally worth it. This only works in Cycles, so it won't be Eevee compatible.This is a step by step project our new course, The Blender Encyclopedia. This course is a comprehensive reference guide for the software and includes step by step projects for all skill levels.Check out https://cgmasters.com for more courses and tutorials.Like the tutorial and want to leave a tip?PayPal - https://www.paypal.me/cgmasterscom Bitcoin - bc1qh2cx8kz4wjj855cruk2sfwftl69vmmuau94w9vEthereum - 0xfb2D6886347434Eb2DACde22C6b96889dDAE6255XRP - r4A4bxQ5wK8R1rEhecgvTy1wSXoCfoE42bDogecoin - DLDZ8fngi4KJkNnHQafV4vxDwaPzZ7e92W

    Blender Tutorial - Physically Based Rendering (PBR) and the Principled Node
    The Blender Encyclopedia is finally out! See more about it here - https://cgmasters.com/the-blender-encyclopedia/ This tutorial is from our course, The Blender Encyclopedia. This course is a comprehensive reference guide for the software and includes step by step projects for all skill levels.In this free lecture from the course we'll be diving deep into the Principled BSDF shader node, which is an all-in-one type node that can be used to create a ton of realistic materials such as wood, metal, marble, cloth, glass, and so much more.In order to understand this node better we'll also go over PBR, or Physically Based Rendering, where I'll introduce you to the scientific basis for building physically accurate materials. PBR simply refers to simulating how light and materials behave in reality, and the principled node automatically does some scientific calculations to achieve this realism, So it's extremely useful when looking to create believable materials.The final blend files and infographics are available in the course's resource files.Textures used in the thumbnail are from Texture Haven (https://texturehaven.com ) and are released under Creative Commons 0.Check out https://cgmasters.com for more courses and tutorials.Like the tutorial and want to leave a tip?PayPal - https://www.paypal.me/cgmasterscom Bitcoin - bc1qh2cx8kz4wjj855cruk2sfwftl69vmmuau94w9vEthereum - 0xfb2D6886347434Eb2DACde22C6b96889dDAE6255XRP - r4A4bxQ5wK8R1rEhecgvTy1wSXoCfoE42bDogecoin - DLDZ8fngi4KJkNnHQafV4vxDwaPzZ7e92W

    Data Visualization in Blender and Python
    In this tutorial we'll create a script that reads data from CSV files(comma separate values) and converts it into a list of data that we can use to generate a bar graph. No prior python experience is needed to follow along, but I don't go over every aspect of the fundamentals of programming, so some experience would really help in understanding everything.You can download the resource files for this tutorial here - https://cgmasters.com/tutorials/Bar_Graph_Resource_Files.zip Check out https://cgmasters.com for more courses and tutorials.Like the tutorial and want to leave a tip?PayPal - https://www.paypal.me/cgmasterscom Bitcoin - bc1qh2cx8kz4wjj855cruk2sfwftl69vmmuau94w9vEthereum - 0xfb2D6886347434Eb2DACde22C6b96889dDAE6255XRP - r4A4bxQ5wK8R1rEhecgvTy1wSXoCfoE42bDogecoin - DLDZ8fngi4KJkNnHQafV4vxDwaPzZ7e92W

    Procedural Parallax Effect in Blender
    Learn how to create a procedural parallax effect using shader nodes in this Blender tutorial. Parallax mapping is a technique used to give a 2 dimensional surface a truly 3 dimensional look. It's different than bump mapping and normal mapping because parallax mapping creates the illusion of depth, not just surface detail. And this depth is based on the perspective too, creating a convincing 3 dimensional feel from every angle. This shader was originally made for this tutorial by Erindale Woodford.
