if you've baked down an AO map, use that to create base gradient layers in photoshop. just incase you're not aware of how to do this, select your AO map layer, then go: Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Gradient map then check the box labeled "use previous layer as clipping mask". then you can change the gradient colours and…
I don't mean turning the polypaint as a whole on or off. I meant having layers like in Photoshop that I could paint on. Right now as I understand it, when polypainting you have just that one layer, so if you paint over something it is destructive. If I want to mess with making, I don't know...eye makeup for a character, by…
You could take your image and throw it into a layer in painter, and only have it use the height channel rather than color, metal, and roughness. Play with the strength. Then another layer or even in the same previous layer in painter for roughness. try to mimic the material it is conveying. So if it was gold make sure it…
From your reference, I can see the object has paint layer, and bronze underneath. I would set up exactly how it is: a first bronze layer that cover entire object, then a paint layer on top WITH custom mask (grunge mask, or even hand painted mask) that will reveal the bronze layer underneath => simulate the way the paint…
Make a layer with mid grey (128 RGB) and put it below the convex and concave layers. Set the convex layer to linear dodge set the concave layer to linear burn
. . . . So… I told you in the introduction "I will try to stay on thoses tracks as I usually change my mind a lot during this process of creation !" Don't be scared, my mind is quiet messy sometimes, I have a millions ideas in a minutes 😂 I think I got lost a bit during the process of looking for a good layout and trying…
Another tip for when you're working with a layered PSD is to have a layer group for each channel. Double click on the layer group, and pick the channel you want that layer group to be.
In my experience (and this may only apply to my own experience), once I have some basic knowledge of what to do, I set a project of reasonable scope and as my end goal. Something small, but interesting to me. This is critical. Then, I figure out what I need to learn to accomplish that as I go through each step. Making…
Sorry no ETA yet. We realize this is a priority for you guys so it will be added at some point, likely sooner rather than later. Layering is not currently supported. Layering with masks to blend between different materials is something we will most likely in future update. You certainly can have multiple surface types with…
Hi, I'm actually doing the modelling of the cars for rumblesushi, so I've joined up so I can talk directly to you. First, hi again and thanks for your replies. I'm working on adding lighting and also adding some more hand drawn elements. I've used some AO on the Lan Evo. I just used a sklight and a target direct light (as…
