Thanks for this man, I’ve just started using blender so channels like yours are a great help. I can see this channel blowing up soon. It’s the best I’ve come across.

Hi, ich mache auch 3D und finde du erklärst es sehr gut, weiter so! :)

Just a helpful tip I found. I'd an image isn't lot correctly, import it into gimp or photoshop, then duplicate the layer, desaturated the new layer and invert its colours then set the layer to Soft Light.

Is there a way to have PBR materials with Vector displacement maps VDM's in Blender?

[paladhannaya]

Can we use vector images as texturing on 3d objects in blender

Wow! Very impressive detailing with alpha textures can these results be achieved in Eevee or only with cycles? Thank you.

How did you get it to where you only get the scales of that chameleon?

Inkscape -make good blur s and gradient options - saving at 96 dpi might help.

[FaithIgnitor]

Are objects that use materialize 3d printable?

This only work for surfaces? Because i tried with thungs like ornaments and the results are not the best

Id like to use this method to make symbols on my model of sword. I have the sword modelled out. I have my reference pic, which im trying to use for making the height maps. After i aply the brush the result is very weird, it looks like a desired shape but there are different depths on each vert.. what am i doing wrong? Im begginer so i just follow steps in tutorial. Thanks for reply.

I have huge problems with textures :(

I made a deer, retopologied it and used multires. and shrinkwrap to make a smoother version with around 100k faces (that the amount of the official ingame creatures)
But as soon as i want to make the textures with the alphas, the brush escalates completely and the texture throws bubbles and cracks excessively. You cant see anything from the original alpha.

I tried it with 1, 6 million faces, 6 million and 26 million. I tried to just in the multi res mofifier.. I tried to apply the mofidier with all three faces.
But the result is the same every time.

I made everthing exact the way you show in the creature parts... I tried it with your alphas from patreon and bought about 7 different packs of alphas... some 2-4k resolution... still same result..
I really dunno whats wrong :(
