8 simple steps to Sci-fi panels in substance painter (featuring anchor points, decals and emission)

In this video I create sci-fi panels in Substance painter. I will be using anchor points, set up emission and create decals but I will also cover all the basics like baking maps, adding different layers and masks , so
I think this is great for beginners.

9:44 Step 7: Adding color + roughness variation
10:57 Step 8: Adding (sharpen) filters
11:20 Final result
Some notes:
You can find the 'add Anchor point' option if you right-clicking any layer. Then make your reference to the anchor Point in a layer above.
Now you can find a micro normal map in any generator where you can select your anchor point. Be sure to also go in the 'Micro detail' tab and enable 'micronormal'.
When baking maps I like to enable anti aliasing. Though it takes longer, the results are worth it. I also increase the ray count for Ambient occlusion, which gives more accurate, cleaner results. This can take quite a while.
In order to see emission in the viewport you must first add an emission channel in the 'texture set settings'. Next you will need to increase the emissive intensity in the 'shader settings' and finally go to the 'display
settings' and enable 'Glare' in the Post effects tab.
Be sure to add a regular layer on 'passthrough mode' last and add a 'sharpen' filter to it. This will bring out more detail, which can be important since a lot of it can be
lost during rendering (in Mayas Arnold for example).
I really hope you enjoyed this video and create some badass sci-fi panels now!

Fast and straight to the point, no nonsense. Good video, man.

I hate unnecessarily long tutorials myself, so I try to keep it as short as possible. Good to hear its appreciated!

Really good video, the anchor point for the normals works great! Tranks a lot

Thanks .. its helpfull 👍🏼

[@3dsculptingtutorials]

Glad to hear that!

[@danksley]

its quicker I think to have scratches confer metallic=true, base color change, and lower roughness with the same scratch map.

[@3dsculptingtutorials]

You're right, that would work well!
