Though the final result isnt as flashy as the last one, I consider this one way better than the last. Rather than just watching me model and make random comment, I have actually organized this into more of a class style lecture. THIS IS AN EXCELLENT TUTORIAL, and nearly as good as any you would find on gnomon.

In this tutorial, we will go over the theory behind the interactions between materials in the natural world, how to make a metal base texture, adding realistic paint layers, the photoshop pattern tool, and making specular maps.
