SiliconZoo tutorial

You can find here a great tutorial on IC Reverse-Engineering. It will (quickly) introduce you to every step of a complete IC Reverse-Engineering.

"The Layman's Guide to IC Reverse Engineering has been created to teach you the very basics of what it takes to reverse engineer integrated circuits. Not too much particular focus is given to the physics and math, just the bare essentials for a layman to turn images into logic. And chips into images. Kudos to academia, security researchers, and chip enthusiasts from around the world for all their papers and presentations that this effort draws inspiration from."

Robert Baruch CMOS chip Reverse-Engineering tutorial

You can find here a great demonstration of a CMOS chip Reverse-Engineering in Inkscape. It shows how to retrieve a logic model from scratch with a simple drawing tool like Inkscape.
