Gumroad – Texturing Tutorial in Mari and Substance Designer – For Production By Zak Boxall

My name is Zak Boxall and I’m a texture and Look Development Artist in the Visual Effects industry. I’ll be showing you the steps I took to recreate this space capsule 1-1 based on photographic reference. We’ll dip into Mari, Substance Painter, Designer and Photoshop. But the goal here is to understand each step and not just follow along, we’ll go through the why’s and how’s, so by the end of this series, you’ll be able to apply these theories to your own models. It’s also worth noting, we won’t be using any third party plugins at any point.

For those of you that are already familiar with Mari and are used to working with layers, we’re going to be texturing exclusively in the node graph. I’ll show you how the node graph can allow you to work more efficiently and organised, in a procedural yet non destructive manner to get full coverage as a base. But we’ll hand paint details on each mask, to fully realize and match our reference.

With nearly 4 and a half hours of content we’ll go from beginning to end, grading the on-set photos, removing shadows & highlights, making tilables and building the colour map. We’ll then break the texturing into the various layers required for current physically based renderers. We’ll paint all channels in isolation, and work in different details into each map, to ultimately help define a surface that’s visually interesting, but matches our reference.

We’ll paint maps such as specular roughness, different levels of displacement and isolation masks for further control in look development.

We’ll also go through how to create multi layered procedural edge wear and dirt masks from scratch inside of Mari – Similar to smart masks you can get in Substance Painter.

The emphasis is on using these procedural techniques as a base, where we will then hand paint on top to art direct and paint hero moments, to help tell a story with your asset.

And finally all along the way, I’ll show you how I work non-destructively in anticipation for feedback expected in a production environment.

** Video Tutorial Files + OBJ + Source Images ** You’ll receive the above plus the model, texture shoot and tilable textures I use in the series to fully follow along with every step.

** Video Tutorial Files, OBJ, Source Images + Project Files ** You’ll receive all of the above plus all my project files. I added this option as I learn the most when dissecting other people’s project scenes and Mari archives.

** Software used **

– I’m going to be using Mari 4.2v1, but the techniques we’ll be going through will be compatible with any Mari version greater than 3.

– Photoshop, Substance Painter and Substance Designer.

** What skill level do I need to be? **

– Mari – I’m not going to go over every single button and function that you can do in Mari, however every technique that we use, I will explain.

– Substance Painter – We touch Substance Painter to bake utility maps only, it’s a simple process so no previous experience is required.

– Substance Designer – We use Designer for the ‘bottom’ grey coloured base of the space capsule. I don’t go over every single node, and we won’t be creating the ‘bottom’ base from scratch, however we’ll run through my node graph comprehensively to discuss creation of masks and how we can layer them together to build our colour, displacement and dirt mask. I will provide my scene file for you to go over in your leisure.

– Photoshop, we will be using photoshop to grade our reference. I’ll go over every step of the way.
