Name of the course in which the shader ball was created.

Hi bbarusa ,

as far as I know, there hasn't been a course or lesson on how to create this shader totem. There has been a question in here some time ago:

https://cgcookie.com/community/10462-modeling-of-indentations-at-cgc-shader-totem?page=1

But no start to finish tutorial.

Hey bbarusa,

I maybe mistaken, but I think there was a course on modeling the shader ball. If I am right it would of been some years ago and has probably been confined to history in the deep dark depths of a storage warehouse somewhere.
Like I said though, I could be wrong.

The shader ball is available free for CGCookie citizens,  👉 cgc-shader-totem 👈

If you are interested in how its made, you can reverse engineer it after download. A great way of learning.

Hope this helps!

No, there is no tutorial for when the shader ball was created, I think Kent did it on his own but never recorded it to slap materials on it. The one that had a tutorial was the orb, Kent did do a modeling tutorial for it, to then teach retopology on it. This guy
