Michael Brennan 56 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Hi Guys, Been experimenting with rendering some gem and glass like objects in A:M and decided to try my hand at rendering some quartz crystals. Have a few more things I'd like to add and experiment with in the scene so figure I'll keep adding here as a WIP when I get around to it. ( have to get back to my Snoopy post as well ) A few post tweaks were added in Photoshop like exposure and blurring. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChuckGram 19 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Nice work! The blur effect you mentioned from Photoshop adds a nice touch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Michael Brennan 56 Posted October 15, 2020 Author Share Posted October 15, 2020 Playing around with some more crystal renders some green for that kryptonite look. Rendered a separate flat shaded pass of the crystals to add the glow effect in photoshop and the usual PS tweaks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
robcat2075 353 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Very lovely. The little fracture lines are interesting. How did you do those? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Robert! For the crystal colour used a gradient with celturb to get faceted mixing. The fractures are a Scales bump.. there is another bump projection map texture for finer bumps.

Michael Brennan 56 Posted October 22, 2020 Author Share Posted October 22, 2020 Animated rotation of the Kryptonite. After Effects and Premiere were used for some compositing and glow. The Vimeo link plays at better quality https://vimeo.com/470864159 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
