A Full Course on Creating Beautiful Environments
I've created a full course that teaches you everything you need to know about creating environments like these.
I'll show you the start-to-finish creation process of these 5 renders. Each one is explained the entire way through in a time efficient manor (~2 hours per render).
I'll teach you how to stay inspired, get endless ideas, and create renders super fast.
You also get full access to these blend and PSD files, meaning you can take anything out of them and use it in your own work.
Course Outline
Section 1 - Fundamentals
In this first section, we'll cover the bigger overarching mindsets and tools that I use in my work:
- The basic framework of creating an artwork
- How to get ideas, inspiration and motivation to create
- The most helpful methods I've found for improving and speeding up my work
- How to optimize your workflow
Section 2 - Abandoned Factory Creation
I've recorded myself creating this one completely start to finish, explaining all my decisions along the way to end up with this result. You'll be able to apply the techniques I show here to many other types of industrial, scifi, and urban renders.
Section 3 - Floating Temple Creation
Fantasy renders are some of the most fun images to create since we can play with reality itself. I'll show you in this one how I use models to create surreal places that don't exist anywhere else. This one is also a good demo of how I use the Fantasy Asset Pack (more info on that below). Again, full process recorded and explained.
Section 4 - Dark Forest Creation
Creating nature scenes is something that I struggled with for a long time, which is why I had to include one of these in the course. You'll learn techniques to create natural environments that have a calming, beautiful atmosphere. Once again, full process recorded and explained, start to finish.
Section 5 - More Breakdowns and Conclusion
- Some more breakdowns and reflections on the process videos
- How to use all the information in the course and move forward with it.
Section 6 - Cityscapes Bonus Module
- Full creation process of a nighttime cityscape
- Full creation process of a sunset cityscape
You'll also get some asset packs.

I'm here to help you create your best work.
When I started learning 3D, I started at the bottom like anyone else. Terrible renders, hopelessly trying to make money from something I loved, no followers, and no direction to go in. It was tough to say the least.
After spending thousands of hours in blender, watching countless hours of tutorials and allowing my mind to be fully consumed by this art form for years, things have changed.
I now have over 200,000 followers across all platforms. I'm creating art for musicians I grew up listening to, and companies I’ve always known about. I’m at a point where I can charge thousands of dollars to create a single image that will be seen by millions of people.
The way I got here was simple. Not easy, but simple: Create as much beautiful artwork as possible. And that's what I'm here to teach you how to do.
Who is this course for?
This course is meant for the person who has the basics of using blender, but doesn't fully understand the process of making high quality renders from start to finish. It's about the same difficulty level as the content on my YouTube channel, so if you can follow most of that then you'll do great in the course.
Don't Just Take My Word For It
Here is some of my favorite work from the people who've gone through it:
"Made this using the assets included with @maxhayart ‘s new class -
If you’re looking to learn environments in blender Max’s new course is a fantastic choice to get up an running quickly!"
- Jon Ojibway (@ozhichige)
"Shout out to @maxhayart for the incredibly helpful course, I’ve learned more in the past few days than I have in the last few months of trying to learn it anywhere else. If you like this kind of art I definitely recommend checking out his work because it’s insane!"
- Conner Richter (@conner.psd)
"This is the course that took me from intermediate to professional. It's years worth of time and experience condensed into a course with all the assets you need to get started."
- Haider Ali (@cg_haider)
"The priority of the main object, the central plate, the spotlight lighting, these are all based on MAX's course."
- TATOLU (@tatolu_exp)
"An image will always be just an image, but it becomes more when you feel a connection to the scene, to the characters, to the imaginary world created for each particular scene. That is what I found to be the most valuable lesson I learned from you."
- Sky (@sky3dworld)
"The course is all around extremely good, and provides new knowledge that definitely comes in handy when you're working on a scene."
- Dylan (@dylann.cor)
"Max is an artist that I've been following since he started posting videos on YouTube, and he hasn't stopped surprising me ever since. His works are the reflection of many years of learning about 3D, thanks to this course I have been able to increase my knowledge of graphic design and 3D. I recommend this course to people who have a basic knowledge of blender and photoshop."
- Fernan Designs (@fernan_designs)
"Throughout my journey of learning 3D, I have been constantly searching for faster ways to create artwork.
And I have been hesitant about using Photoshop in post-production. However, this course has addressed the issues I encountered and provided clear instructions that have taken my skills to the next level."
- Gala Zi (@galazi_3dart)
"I come from a 2D background, and what I like about Max Hay's course is that it is both comprehensive and approachable to artists of all levels. If you have any inkling of an interest in learning 3D, this is the place to develop it correctly."
- Amir Draco Artn (@dracoartn)
Oh, and there's zero risk.
You can go through the entire course and if you don't think it was worth it up to 30 days later - I'll give you your money back. No questions asked.
This means:
Best case scenerio - You get exactly what you hoped for and more.
Worst case scenerio - You get a bunch of free training.

Frequently Asked Questions
What software do I need to follow along with the course?
The entire course is designed for someone to follow along in blender and a bit of Photoshop. All of the asset packs come as .blend files. If you really want to follow along with what I teach in a different software, I still think there is lots of value here. But just know that there is a lot you'd be missing.
How difficult is the course?
The course is meant for someone with a basic understanding of blender. If you're completely new, I recommend going through Blender Guru's donut series on YouTube. This will teach you the basics of how to use blender.
The difficulty of this course is around the same as the content I post on YouTube. If you can follow along with most of that, you'll do amazing in the course.
What's your refund policy?
If you don't like the course, simply send me an email letting me know you'd like your money back within 30 days of purchasing the course. No problem.
You will not be permitted to use any of the downloadable assets unless you re purchase the course.
Can I go at my own pace?
Yes. The course is a series of pre recorded videos, so you can go through at whatever speed you like and revisit it at any time.
