Best Black Friday and winter 2022 deals for CG artists


Main image: Adobe Stock


As 2022’s Black Friday, Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday sales begin, we’ve rounded up the best deals for CG artists. Whether you work in VFX, animation, motion graphics or arch viz, there’s something for you.

We’ve included hardware if it’s CG-related – like monitors and workstations – along with resources like 3D models, characters and plants, and textures, HDRIs and photographic cutouts.

To keep the list manageable, we aren’t covering training or online rendering.

This year’s deals include software from Adobe, Boris FX, Chaos, Corel, e-on software, Isotropix, Next Limit and Reallusion; workstations from Dell, HP and Lenovo; and pen displays from Huion, Wacom and XP-Pen.

Where possible, we’ve listed deals direct from the developers, but at the foot of the story, you can find a few via resellers, including deals on Supermicro workstations and GeForce RTX GPUs for US readers.

Selected deals added on 23 November: Marmoset Toolbag, assets from the Unreal Engine Marketplace.

Selected deals added on 24 November: Cavalry, Xfrog plants.

Selected deals added on 25 November: 3DCoat, 3DCoatTextura, 3DF Zephyr, 3ds Max, Adobe subscriptions for teams, Enscape, FaceBuilder, Marvelous Designer, Maya, Moho, OctaneRender Studio+ subscriptions, Plask MoCap Pro subscriptions, RealityCapture, RizomUV, Silo, SketchUp, Wrap, ZWrap.

Selected deals added on 28 November: Axiom solver for Houdini, Maxon’s Universe plugin library.

Updated 5 December: Many deals have now been extended. We’ve updated the list with deals still valid on 5 December (UK time). Click here to jump to deals for Winter 2022 and the New Year.
