What you will create
This course is built around my personal workflow—how I approach composition, visual flow, lighting, soft and hard surface workflows. From the basics to advanced pro tools, you’ll get a hands-on look at how I think, build and take creative decisions.
You’ll also build complete projects—including lettering, abstract composition, a Nomad+Procreate basketball art, footwear design, stylized character sculpt, and an F1-inspired retro race car.
Each chapter guides you through a complete workflow — from sketching to modeling, texturing, lighting, and final rendering. Some chapters involve rough sketching in Procreate—mainly as a reference for building forms in Nomad. If you’d like to sketch along with me, having some sketching experience will definitely help. That said, the main focus is on Nomad, so you’re free to skip the sketching part if you prefer and still follow along just fine.
What you will need
-
