Stylized Water Scene Course

This course guides users through the creation of a stylized tropical water diorama. The curriculum focuses on modeling, texturing, and finalizing individual assets sequentially, including flora, a fishing boat, coral, a treasure chest, and scenic rocks. It demonstrates techniques for generating underwater god rays and working with stylized materials using the Shader Editor.

The workflow uses the Cycles render engine for final scene evaluation and rendering, emphasizing asset scale and real-world proportions within a stylized aesthetic. The learning material includes over 13 hours of video content and features a comprehensive handbook broken into distinct sections for non-linear learning. Supplemental resources such as reference files, glass textures, and an HDRI map are provided to assist the building process.
