Photoshop for 3D Artists
Photo-editing tools play a large roll in 3D work – whether you’re doing that final touch-up of awesome or the fix up.
While browsing (and I do a lot of browsing), I came across this tutorial book for sale -

The book covers original design work, texturing and post production and effects.
