Better material: Composite make perfect!

page1 | page2 | page3

Now we gonna add the noisy material that make easier for your material to be applied to various house, or even a ruins of castle :) While bricks map in 3DS MAX already have noise parameter but that is not good enough for me so I simply make a composite material that consists of 2 material, the first is the basic brick we already made, the second is a new material that will add noise/contour that make your brick likes a real one

STEP 4:



Open material browser, change the type of material from standard to new, composite materal and choose 'keep material as sub material'




STEP 5:
We will combine only 2 kind of material so make sure only mat.1 slot selected, choose 30% transparency. The basic principle of composite material is not unlike layer concept in photoshop or paintshop pro, so if we choose '100%' then all we will see is only the noise without the bricks o_0;


STEP 6:
Now we will edit the mat.1 slot :
Select mat.1 and add noise in diffuse color and andd dent in bump channel



I only use default in Noise channel but I change the dent parameters a bit, that is dent size (45) and strength (20)


Now looks what the wonderful result on the page 3
