Photoshop for 3D Artists - Volume 1 - OUT OF PRINT!

i bought this book to brush up on my photoshop techniques , richard tilbury outlines many aspects of using photoshop , photoshop really is a cracking piece of software this book helps you to get the best of certain techniques in it !!

I use this book when i am frustrated and have things on my mind not connected to the line of work i need to carry out, thats when i need a reset button and this comes in handy in many ways.i use the book to thrive into new ideas and repair my line of view, with the line of creativity of-course. thank you 3d total! thank you publishers!

I bought this book as it was on sale for $5. This book is about 6 years old but the techniques showed in this book are still relevant to today's ways of presenting ideas and finalising visuals. This book has helped me improved my visualization technics.

I bought this book to get a better understanding of implementing photoshop into my 3d workflow. And it certainly delivered. After reading this book im not only much better at using photoshop for texturing but also creating fantastic concepts in 3D and also taking the final renders further.

'This is an amazing book. Thoughtfully and logically laid out for the beginner and intermediate alike. Great examples and instruction and as alway beautiful art. Highly recommend.

As a weaker photoshop user I found it really easy to pickup. It was a great read with a lot of helpful tips and helped me tremendously in getting a start on texturing.

Goes over all of the key areas of texturing. Solid and informative. Would buy again.

This book has so much to offer, if you want to improve on your Post Productive, and Texturing skills. For me it was so interesting to see how others work with texturing characters. If you get the chance this book is a really good purchase.

As a beginner 3d modeler and 3d artist wannabe, I bought this book because I felt like needing a true guide into texturing and beyond. It provides detailed tutorials on texturing, digital drawing, previz, rendering post-production and even comes as far as to explain how you should mix drawing and 3d graphics to break new grounds and try something different. I see it as a handy guide to keep around while you stack up experience, and it's also easy to read even for non-native english people like me.

It's a good book. There are plenty of tutorials and photoshop techniques that will help me to empower my works for sure.

The book is very good. It is full of very nice tutorials and advices about texturing and mapping. Good one.

The book is very interesting with a lot of usefull techniques that can make the work be better in several fields from ligthing , textures and compositing .Definitely recommended for each and every level !

Thank you for this great book. Great way to improve my skills.

This book has valuable tips on texturing and special effects for 3D characters and 3D environments. I recommend it!

Fantastic book with many great advices and information for all artists. Next time, please make it a hardcover :)

Take the time to read through and practice what is in this volume and you will improve your abilities, whether you are a beginner or have done this sort of artwork for awhile. You'll learn Photoshop as well. If you don't learn something from this wonderfully written book, then you really aren't trying.

This book is simply the best one I've ever read about the interaction between Photoshop and 3d. Very clear!!Thank you guys!!3D Total rules!!!

Great book that is very informative. TOP!

Im an architect who is starting in 3d, and this book has been a great help for improving my final renderings, there are so many things that can take so long to do in 3d and this book just makes it all so easy.

Providing you have a working knowledge of Photoshop, this book is a perfect one to help you spice-up your renders. From textures to post-production, every artist, beginners to advanced, will find useful tips inside. A must for a 3d artist's library.

I bought this book out of curiosity on how to quickly improve final 3d image in general, and I found that the book pretty much covers most of the topics that I need to practice on 3d art as I don't generally do any digital paint, but want to learn to do quick concepts and quick rendering. Each chapter is easy to follow along with clear explanation and image of the settings boxes, and also, there is a link to download tutorial resources which I think it is very useful, as you can perform your own photoshop experiments with what you learned from the book. They did a great job in selecting an example works for each tutorial, which I don't find it too easy or too hard to follow. I especially like the chapter on previsualization, an interesting article on 2d and 3d techniques to help exploring design ideas. I learned quite a few things from these chapter, since I don't really draw that well, but with some skill in sculpting/modeling, I'm able to explore ideas in a totally different way and it is fun to do. The book provides general idea on how powerful can photoshop enhance the quality of your 3d art at the final stage, and shows how easy it can be done in just a few steps. Each tutorial serve well as one of many methods to achieve one quality look, and the example of the art works are well selected and inspiring enough to encourage you to follow along and experiment with your own techniques. If you are looking for a practical use of photoshop in your existing 3d work flow, this is the book that will give you an insight of how quickly you can improve the quality with great result, and finally, fun to follow and very inspirational to read.

The Photoshop for 3d Artists volume 1 is a great guide in near all aspects. It covers everything from previsualization to post-production. The different tutorials that guide the reader through each section are mostly geared towards the intermediate user but also help explain fundamentals for the beginner. It all contributes to laying a great foundation for the budding 3d artist as it walks you through the functionalities and thought processes of a multitude of aspects. Furthermore it also aids creating a deeper understanding for the workings of Photoshop, especially when it comes to the lightning process which Richard Tilbury explained greatly.This is a great collection with near complete coverage of all aspects of Photoshop for the 3d artist. All in all, it can by far be ordained as an excellent guide for the budding 3d artist.
