In this tutorial, we will go through the entire process of making cliffs for AAA games, using an RGB masked workflow, which gives us the desired texel density at any asset scale.

We start with highpoly sculpting in Zbrush, and end in Unreal, with masks from Substance Painter, and textures from Substance Designer.

This tutorial is for an intermediate skill level. We do not spend time on basic controls, and it's assumed the artist is already able to create basic assets. It's made for busy people who don't have time to watch 32-hour tutorials, but want a concise guide, step by step, in a relatively short amount of time.
