The Gnomon Workshop – Rendering Matte Surfaces Volume 3

In the final instalment of the Matte Surface Rendering series, Neville Page explores advanced shading techniques for complex curved surfaces — methods he has been teaching for more than two decades. Artists will discover how to apply everything already learned in Volume 1 and Volume 2 to more complex curved surfaces.  In this 2.5-hour workshop, Neville demonstrates a clear, technical, and logical approach to assigning values across panels and compound curves. As the examples progress in complexity throughout the lessons, he showcases a range of lighting strategies in Photoshop to help artists render impressive and sophisticated forms, which are particularly useful when working with intricate designs. Neville then follows through with a full rendering demo, taking artists through the entire journey, from start to finish. 

This workshop concludes with some quick “Fish Form” value sketches that bring all the lessons together in a quick and practical way.  This series of Rendering Matte Surfaces classes is designed to help artists advance from solid basics to professional-level application. The lessons are essential for beginners looking to push their skills further and also provide a strong foundation for experienced artists looking to refine their techniques and sharpen their skills.
