Hey guys,

I'm a little new to the current Polycount forums and I'm pretty sure I had an account before but forgot the credentials... so I guess I'm back and figured I'd post some of the stuff I did in the past couple months. I'm also a little used to doing this stuff in a regular blog format but since I've maybe had 1 comment in 5 years I'm stepping away from that.
 
Anyway, a little introduction. I'm a relatively fresh player all-round, with 2 years of post-graduation work experience. My packages of choice are Maya (+Arnold), Mari, Photoshop and Substance. I try to combine them whenever I can. Though I've identified almost exclusively with Substance Designer, this thread is in no way Designer-only.

I hope you and whoever else pops in will enjoy what I did and hopefully leave a comment for some feedback.

Thanks for reading!
Pim

Substance Painter > Mari > Maya / Arnold (alsurface)

My girlfriend created the model and laid the UVs across 4 spaces. Base material layering was done in Substance Painter, exports then fixed in Mari as I don't like to fix seams in SP. Texture setup contained diffuse, bump, displacement, normal, metallic, roughness. Opacity is achieved by using a combination of roughness and displacement information inside Arnold. Anders Langlands surface shaders used and set to Disney BRDF model to match Substance Painter viewport display.

Substance Designer, first couple of finished works. A lot of iterative stuff in between and testing out methods. These materials are 100% made in Substance Designer. No bitmaps used either.

At the request of some colleagues at the studio I then worked at, I set up this tree cross section material and set up parameters so it's useful in Substance Painter as well.

I also did some breakdowns for some materials I posted before. I played them past a couple friends of mine to make sure there weren't any spelling errors and I was making sense. So big thanks to Jens Kafitz, Frederik Ostyn and Frederik Plucinski. Also a big thanks to Kirill Tokarev and 80.lv for featuring them.

Okay, so all the stuff posted above is all between a week and 4 months old and following that period chronologically. From now on it's only new stuff! Huzzah.

Quick update on some stuff.

Got into Marmoset and played around with the settings for these materials. Love how easy it is to make them look cool.

Also finished another material around a week ago.
