Re: Spider mech model, would love some critique!
Welcome to Polycount! This is a sweet design, it's nice to see non-conventional mechanical designs like this. The biggest thing for me is how difficult it is to get a "read" on the shapes.

Re: Question about blending materials.
Right. The 'not blurring them into the ground' thing really threw me off for some reason. Hope this helps. This first video describes blending two materials using the RS Material Blender based on two material heights + a mask. At 2:00 he starts with a Ramp to do a simple blend from left to right. Instead of a ramp, this is… -
