Foliage consists out of a lot of components working together, one of which is your foliage atlas, which contains all the texture information for your leaves, leaf clusters and branches.

In this lesson we'll be exploring how to make your own grass, going from creating your own foliage atlas, setting up foliage cutouts in Speedtree to then create our own grass meshes from.

Let's create a bigger item of foliage now, using previous lesson on creating foliage atlasses to create a holly bush.

Explore the fundamentals of lighting, learn how light, shadow, and color work together to enhance realism, and take a peek into what lighting within Unreal Engine looks like.

Learn how color grading, exposure, and visual effects work together to enhance mood and polish, and explore how Unreal Engine’s post-processing tools shape the final look of a scene.

Let's jump into Unreal Engine 5 to build our own automatic landscape material, breaking down the industry-standard tools and methods used to create realistic and immersive terrain materials.

Learn how to make your own terrain using Gaea and Unreal Engine.

UV Unwrapping is the process of cutting up and laying out a 3D model in a 2D space, different workflows impact the unwrapping process, and cover the fundamentals needed to unwrap any asset properly!

Prepare for your first artistic project by gathering real life references that are required for you to build the object you want to build.

Explore the importance of references in creating believable 3D art, guiding learners through the process of gathering, understanding, and effectively using reference materials to enhance their projects.
