Create detailed bottles using displacement maps with Photoshop for Blender

[@theplusplus]

Nice work. I just want to add that displacement from shader wont create caustics. You will have to use Displace modifier after subd with the same texture and set it to UV. Edit: You can additionally adjust it with weight painting.

[@davidmilsome3275]

Hey, just discovered your channel and it's great, I'd love to know more about the shading and the lighting you've done as that's one of the things i find so tough to recreate. Really enjoying your content so far 👍

[@Interactiv]

Thanks for the support. I already have a video on how to create the label in this video. I am also in the process of creating some content on lighting in Blender. Hope this helps

[@davidmilsome3275]

@@Interactiv thanks man, i was looking on your website and considering signing up, are the modules on the course more in depth/different to what we see here? thanks

[@Interactiv]

​@@davidmilsome3275 Yes, my course goes more in-depth and has a more structured approach. Remember that the offer is an early-bird offer with lifetime access to the course. I am about to finish volume 2 and start volume 3, which will help you create a bottle from start to finish. I hope this helps you. Thanks, Hunter

[@davidmilsome3275]

@@Interactiv Hi Hunter thanks sounds good, the early bird offer price changes for me from 67 and then 97 when i click to enrol. Has the price changed?

[@Interactiv]

@@davidmilsome3275 I have changed the price since you asked about it. If you email me I would me more than happy to give you the original deal. Thanks

I appriciate the hardwork...❤❤Try Voronoi Texture with 0 randomness and use label as another mask... 3mins...job done!

[@sebastianodibusti]

How do u make the label mask?

[@Silaan]

@@sebastianodibusti a mask is just a black and white... well, mask. Literally like the mask in photoshop. So, you could just put your label into whatever picture editing software you use, black out the label, and have/add a completely white background. Inside blender, just multiply the created mask with the displacement/height map, and the result is that the black area will basically be "cut out" of the displacement map, while everything white in the mask will just stay unchanged. Reason for that: blender reads black as "0" and white as "1", with every grey between as some fraction in between (like, 50% grey is read as 0.5). If you multiply greyscale "pictures" together in blender, then it basically does a multiplication for every pixel . Multiply anything by 1 and it stays the same, multiply anything by zero, and you get zero - thus you can use binary black and white pictures basically as a "cutout"... a mask. If that is too technical: just imagine the black and white mask as a black and transparent "sheet" you "lay over" the displacement map: wherever you put it, you'll only see the unobstructed, transparent parts... and so does blender, basically. And yes, you can also use full greyscale, not just black and white, and multiply that together... and such things do come in handy when making some parametric materials, but that is not really of concern when it comes to basic masks. Fun bonus: since there is a "separate RGB" node, you can pack three greyscale maps in one picture... just use each of the greyscale maps for one channel - one "redscale", one "greenscale", and one "bluescale", so to speak. Result: a possibly slightly psychedelic picture that can be read as three separate textures (or possibly 4 if you also make use of the alpha channel) Tho, that is more useful for game assets, rather than illustrative renders, and is generally called channel packing.

[@daviddoresfonseca]

finnally i did it , i understand now thank so much

[@z1wv]

can you do a tutorial on shading? 4:49

[@yassirbnx]

Keep going bro, I like your work 😜😜😜

[@Interactiv]

Appreciate it. Will do 😁

[@pyramidbuilder]

Really helpful video, Thanks!

[@Interactiv]

Glad it was helpful!

[@boomboomlucker2370]

thank you so much! it's very helpful!

[@Interactiv]

Glad you found this useful

[@callumharper3281]

Does the bottle need to have a ton of geometry for this to work?

[@Miromi848]

Also it works with two waves texture mixed up to displacement. But this method would be easier with more complicated texture

[@Interactiv]

I will have to give this a try. Thanks

[@giftmokaba4127]

How do you fix the sub division messing up the UV wrap?

[@natsunwtk]

Are there any pixelated issues? I always face that what should I do? The pictures is already as big as possible

[@Interactiv]

Make sure the image is at least 16-bit. I would also switch Cycles to Experimental and turn on Adaptive Subdivision.

[@yassirbnx]

I hope u make a video about the label because it looks so complicated

[@Interactiv]

I will create a video soon on the full process of creating the label.

[@Interactiv]

Hi Yassir, just released a new video going through the full process for creating the label: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZrZipWkpdigbbs . Let me know if this is what you where looking for

[@N_tn_d]

I don't have the UV Map selection in UV Map node. How to create it? Thank you

[@ceramicastefanisa]

My displacement is bad I did it with 3240x3240px why is it?

[@Interactiv]

It may just be the number of subdivisions. If you up the render subdivisions to 3, this should help.

[@omeizasanni]

can you please shed more light on that node set up?

[@alexgorbachev17]

Octane render can generate great smooth displacement, withot subdivs and tons of geometry. Is there the feautere in cycles?

[@Interactiv]

Not that I'm aware of unfortunately

[@MrDigitalWorks]

@@Interactiv Actually there is! You can use adaptive subdivision (experimental, subsurf has to be the last modifier). This will automatically generate more detail/subdivs in the render without really subdividing the mesh!

[@Interactiv]

@@MrDigitalWorks this is awesome. I will have to look more into it. Thanks

[@DeniseHoukMedia]

I found your video through looking for tutorials on making brushes for sculpting. Is there a way to use this in modeling?

[@porthmeor1]

Super useful...thanks

[@YotamGuttman]

lol but this is a greyscale bitmap hah 2:40 +tip: you could create this simple pattern which took you about 10 mins, fiddling with styles and duplicating layers in Photoshop, in less than a minute in illustrator's pattern maker :)

[@黄晓钦]

Why is your Blender rendering so fast? Even though we are both on a Mac system。 My configuration is M1 Max with 32 threads, but the speed seems to be only one-tenth of yours

[@Interactiv]

I have the same configuration. Lots of things can affect the rendering speed. Make sure you have the Metal GPU selected without the CPU in Preferences? Also, the option is set to GPU Compute in cycles. Also, you may have a heavier scene with more materials and textures or higher poly meshes.

[@黄晓钦]

@@Interactiv You're right, I checked the preference settings and selected Metal GPU while unchecking CPU, and set the option to GPU Compute in Cycles. The rendering speed has improved significantly. Thank you so much！

[@Interactiv]

@@黄晓钦 No worries

Awesome tutorial. I’m interested in learning more. I sent you a email about your course. Looking forward to your reply.

Thanks, just received your email

[@Tschoii90]

Great video. I hate texturing so much.

[@Interactiv]

Haha, seems about right.

[@rennightmare]

seems like its totally stolen from Arthur Whitehead, idea of a video, tile pattern for the displacement and even a scene with a bottle. Great job Mr. CantEvenThinkOfUniqueScene

[@kahschmidt]

Dude, there are millions of bottles like this on CG TRADER or sketchfab, or do you think Arthur created that one? Furthermore, he teaches in other softwear, stop creating rivalry in the 3D environment and stop embarrassing yourself man. Have a good time and enjoy the content. They don't even know who we are.

[@rennightmare]

@@kahschmidt I didn't say that the bottle is stolen lol, whole tutorial is stolen It's the same, same techniques, same lighting, same texturing workflows and the same pattern for the texture.
