In this training video we cover the full scope of Substance Painter and Designer.

We start with modeling from a photograph in Maya and move on to setting up proper UVS. We then export the files to Substance Painter and begin the layout process. A huge part of the tutorial is using Substance Designer to build custom materials from our reference photography. Once we have our scene setup in Painter we export to Unreal 4 and setup a VR level with our assets as well as demo a setup using the newest Arnold for Maya.
