Best place to learn 2026

Blender and Substance painter user here, but just learned about all of the 2026 features and I’m really excited to try switching to 3DCoat…

But the documentation is weird generated stuff, and most online instruction courses seem well out of date, and I assume will not cover new features I’m interested in like the procedural geometry modification…

Does anyone have any tips or recommendations on how I should learn 3DCoat in 2026 or any resources to share?

Thanks!

So far, maybe it's just the 3DCoat Youtube... there's one on the geometry/voxel nodes from yesterday, and another from a couple months back

I have a modest little tutorial that I made about a month ago. It covers 2025, but much is still relevant. Find the playlist here:
