Â
What you will gain from these masterclasses?
Video Tutorials
Instant access to the entire series presented in real-time with keyboard shortcuts clearly displayed on screen for an easy and fun learning experience.
Practical Masterclasses
You'll be working through a specific exercise and learning a practical, applied workflow, rather than lessons focused on abstract concepts. You'll be actively learning with a concrete example to make sure you understand in a real-life context.
Access to Lesson Files
Both the start and end state Blend files from the session will give you the freedom to experiment, play, and break things knowing that you have a checkpoint to come back to.
Artist Community
When learning with Nodegroup, you have access to a vibrant student and tutor community where you can engage with every lesson to ask questions and share ideas.
Transferable Skills
While these are architectural case-studies, the workflows are applicable to any modelling discipline. These exercises have been specifically picked to cover a wide range of powerful techniques that you can use in all your own projects!
Subtitles and Translations
Every video has subtitles in English as well as auto-translated subtitles in French, Spanish, Italian, German, Japanese, Hindi, and Portugese.
Medina Airport Columns
Dive into the world of procedural modelling in Blender with this masterclass focused on building the iconic columns of Medina International Airport. Using Geometry Nodes, you'll learn to create complex, parametric structures that are both efficient and highly customisable.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced 3D artist, this masterclass will elevate your skills and provide you with techniques to streamline your workflow and create stunning models.
We'll work with splines to keep the model light and customizable, use loops to isolate and manipulate the model efficiently, build custom tools to facilitate large-form decisions, and develop good habits for professional node graphs.
Pancho Arena Canopy
Embark on a journey through the intricate design of the Pancho Arena Canopy in this engaging masterclass.
Using Geometry Nodes, you'll learn to create dynamic canopy structures with a focus on precision and efficiency. This masterclass covers everything from refactoring an initial prototype to achieving both micro and macro control in your models. You'll master the creation of large-scale control surfaces, and learn how to seamlessly integrate manual models into your procedural workflow.
This masterclass offers in-depth insights and practical skills, ideal for 3D artists aiming to elevate their procedural modelling techniques.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Airport Columns
Learn how to create stunning, detailed elements with this masterclass focused on the impressive columns of the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport.
You'll master production-style workflows to create complex, large-scale assets, design a specific topology flow, control forms with proper edge creases, and develop custom tools and viewers.
This masterclass provides in-depth knowledge on building professional-grade models, and ensures your workflows are streamlined and production-ready.
Solar Trees Marketplace
Unlock the potential of procedural modelling with this masterclass focused on the innovative design of the Solar Trees Marketplace.
Create continuous forms using Signed Distance Fields (SDFs), and explore spline-based modelling for versatile and dynamic designs. You'll learn about baking for precomputing complexity, master procedural sorting, and create reusable node groups to build complex and flexible models with ease.
Ideal for 3D artists seeking to expand their procedural skills with advanced techniques, bringing new ideas to life.
Join us to transform your approach to 3D modelling, and master the art of proceduralism.

Andrew Price, BlenderGuru, CEO of Poliigon
There's no one more knowledgeable on Geometry Nodes than Erindale!
If you want to understand how to build procedural tools that will save you time in Blender, this is the course for you.
Gleb Alexandrov, 3D Artist, CreativeShrimp.com
When it comes to learning geometry nodes, thereâs no better guide than Erindale. If youâre serious about improving your node wrangling skills in Blender, getting the full bundle is a no-brainer.
Jan van den Hemel, BlenderSecrets.org
If you're at all thinking about learning Geometry Nodes, you can't go wrong with Erindale's courses. The lessons are well structured, and patiently explained. I've tried to follow a few courses on geometry nodes, but only Erindale's course kept me engaged throughout, with easy to understand lessons.
I'm looking forward to diving into these new procedural modelling lessons!
Aidy Burrows, 3D Artist, CreativeShrimp.com
An outstanding thorough guide on procedural creation, not only what to do step by step but how to think.
This isn't a course only relevant to build these designs, the approaches and workflows here are invaluable when tackling any of your own projects.
Thom B, CGMatter
Models with this level of complexity cannot be made any other way. Try modifiers - it won't work. Try sculpting - it won't work. I don't care how good you are, you'll be tearing your hair out doing this any other way.
Geometry Nodes is the answer. Erin is your guide. Trust them, they're one of the best.
Curtis Holt, YouTuber
Erin has always impressed me with their considerate way of demonstrating node tools. Presenting you with information at a pace that gives you ample time to think about each action you are taking. This approach is especially helpful when learning features that can quickly ramp up in complexity, such as Geometry Nodes.
I've always thought of Erin as one of the most capable geo-nodes teachers in the Blender space, and it's always a joy to learn from them.
Meet Your Instructor
Erin is a seasoned procedural artist and Blender instructor, boasting over 15 years of experience with Blender, and 5 years of professional work in crafting procedural solutions for clients of all sizes. They've been immersed in Geometry Nodes since its early days in Blender's alpha versions (2020). Prior to this, they honed their skills with addons like Sverchok and Sorcar, and in creating procedural materials.
Their journey into 3D art and proceduralism started in 2009 with a shader tutorial they released for Blender 2.49. Nowadays, Erin is deeply involved in the Blender world, leading its largest procedural community and sharing their knowledge to help others push their creative boundaries.
Beyond Blender, Erin's interests extend to tools like Houdini, Grasshopper, and Python coding. With a background in cabinet making and interior design, Erin brings a practical perspective to their craft, focused on building interconnected and responsive systems that redefine creativity in the built environment.
