This section is for tutorials that I have written detailing advanced art techniques. They were originally created for the production of Damnation, so they assume a certain set of tools, namely 3DS Max, Photoshop, the Unreal 3 Engine, and in some cases ZBrush. Some of them are a few years old now, so they may reference older versions of the programs.

Most of the information contained within these documents are things that I just found through experimentation and research.
