Any suggestions on quality tutorials on or how to go about learning Substance Designer?

Hi there, 

I am at the point in my career where I have to teach myself a ton of the skills that I didn't quite get to work on while going through school.  Substance Designer is the main one.  I know the basics but I feel like my main problem is taking those basics and turning them into a realistic looking material.  Does anyone know any tutorials or books that I can look at to become a better artist?  

I am very sorry if this has already been posted somewhere.  I feel like this is a common question but I didn't quite see anything when I searched.  Thanks.

I would check out Daniel Thiger and Josh Lynch on gumroad, they have a bunch of tutorials and are substance gangsters.

Thanks!  The tutorials offered by Daniel Thiger seems to be a good base which is exactly what I am looking for.  I will definitely check these out.  I can only buy a couple for now because of financial reasons which sucks.
