Experimentando Blender

Following the progress made in the rocks with materials post , I started to  to develop a realistic paint for a tank modeling project that can be checked  here .  The node setup is here below: Since the website where I got the texture from, had several maps of the texture already set up, it was easy to get a realistic result.  One of the main ideas I had for the tank was to use decals on some specific parts of the texture. So, I  imported the front grill of the T-70 project, and tried to apply a decal to it.  We start with the same base texture for the grill. Then, use a ColorRamp and intensify the bumps with a Bump Node Using a Simple ColorRamp we can create the Roughness Map to use on the Principled Shader Then, we need to mix the decal, the scratches and the overall green texture Decal base image Decal With Separate RGB in Red Scratches base image Scratches ColorRamp output Mixing Scra...

This time I have tried to improve my material skills, using the node editor. To further improve my skills in the node editor, I have consulted a blender conference video " Materials Made Easy - Non-Destructive Shading in Blender" , that you can check  here. It belongs to the  Official Blender Youtube Channel . To quickly model rocks , a similar workflow of the one shown in the video above was used.  Start with a simple extruded cube.    Then, add a subdivision surface to make it smooth.  Add a displace modifier with a Voronoi texture with large displacement scale, to give the base rock mesh.  Then, add a second subdivision surface modifier, to smooth out those weird edges from the displace modifier. At last, add a displace modifier with a second Voronoi texture, with smaller details. This gives the rock a more realistic look, without having to actually model a realistic one. On the modifiers tab you ...
