Member EduardoMC Posted August 28, 2011 Member Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 I love the cloth texture on this character by Alessando Baldasseroni: http://www.eklettica.com/gt_render.html How would you guys do the cloth texture with all those crevices? Is it possible to do inside 3d-Coat? Thanks and regards, Eduardo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member T.H. ROCK Posted August 28, 2011 Advanced Member Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 I would use a burlap texture with a neutral moderate brown texture with about 50 percent depth, touch up the fine borders in photoshop. To brighten it up, I might put on first, a new layer, a base coat of a pale yellow or brown, then use screen or some other overlay to keep the diffuse from being too dark. Then, I would use use no depth, "more in cavity" with a very dark brown to establish the depth of the areas between the threads. Specularity I would keep quite low and adjust it with your 3D software's nodal or shader functions. Transparency could be altered depending on the look of the material you want to appear.

Advanced Member michalis Posted August 28, 2011 Advanced Member Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 cloth textures need another treatment IMO. Basic rule: seams exist in real clothing. Alessando Baldasseroni's work here is excellent but not the most difficult clothing. Try square geometrical patterns and face something more difficult. I use blender UV editor for these cases only. I need an alignment tool for island vertices this is the secret. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philnolan3d Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 Personally I would create a 3DC Material based on a photo using Pixplant. Lots of good burlappy textures can be found on sites like CGTextures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
