Dude! You have opened my eyes to just how much time I’ve been wasting building textures in Photoshop building out textures. Thank you for putting these amazing tutorials together!

[@herrvin8267]

This is awesome! Thank you so much for your great tutorials!

[@RyanKingArt]

You're very welcome!

[@schmuddelecke]

Yeah! It helps me a lot to figure a new Borg-Cube! Thanks!!

[@RyanKingArt]

Yeah, you could change this a little to make a borg cube. 😄

[@juliaalder2007]

Awsome as always, Ryan! 😊 It would be very interesting to learn how to make this seamless.

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks! Yeah maybe I can make a video on that sometime.

[@caribbeanchild]

How is a procedural material NOT seamless?

I also made it now based on this video. I learned a lot. Thanks.

Thank you!

[@gmodandhl2experiments849]

@@RyanKingArt You are welcome, May I add that i think the viewers who dont like eevee as much might go for the cycles part instantly, so for that, i think maybe editing in a time stamp to where you start making the material

[@RyanKingArt]

@@gmodandhl2experiments849 I do have timestamps in the description. But you have to make the Eevee one first, and then you can just edit the material a little for cycles.

whooa, that's clear.

[@RyanKingArt]

thanks 👍‍

[@Wholleh]

Edit: Redid the entire thing from scratch and it all worked fine, go figure :D Thanks for an amazing tutorial, I'm encountering a bit on an issue though. My voronoi texture node outputs "squares" ( for lack of a better word) but the density is a lot lower then the result that you are getting. I've tried adding a Math node set to Multiply but this messes with the rest of the setup. I hope I'm being clear in describing my problem. Using Blender 3.1. I hope you can help me. Keep up the great content good Sir !

[@RyanKingArt]

Hmm I'm not sure why that is happening. Did you setup the color ramp the same way that I did?

[@Wholleh]

@@RyanKingArt I don't know what went wrong, but as I said, I redid the entire thing and it worked like a charm! Thanks for taking the time to try and figure it out though. All the best.

[@EPmessi9800]

You should also make a more symmetrical and minimal one too (:

[@RyanKingArt]

Yes, I would like to make more types of these sci-fi metal materials! 👍‍

[@wesss9353]

Up next borg cube!

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for the idea! I will consider it.

[@wesss9353]

@@RyanKingArt possible borg sphere from first contact? Please!

[@lem3579]

Yo would you be able to make a tutorial on how to properly image texture sculptures thus having a LOT of vertices if that makes sense? It was a hassle trying to highlight a whole bunch of them in wireframe mode with with the square selection (couldn't even accurately select them) and trying unwrap and it was just getting messy trying to put images on them and I gave up haha. I'd appreciate if you were able to make a video on this as I'd really like to properly texture this sculpt I've been really content with despite beginning to learn sculpturing 2-3 days ago.

[@RyanKingArt]

Ok, maybe I can make a video on that sometime.

[@EnricoGolfettoMasella]

Epic!!! If it was a sphere it could be a dead star on steroids 😁😁

[@dudechair-rollingrasslinre2460]

great Tutorial! question, if i wanted the orange color to change colors randomly throughout the animation, how would I do that? Thanks

[@RyanKingArt]

You can animate the color value. Hover your mouse over the color value, and press I, to insert keyframes.

[@dudechair-rollingrasslinre2460]

Thank you!

[@MestreDigital]

I'm trying to bake the texture. But, if you set metallic to 1 the Diffuse is all black. I'm using your video about bake to try it. Is there some tip to bake the metallic look? Thank you for your great work.

[@RyanKingArt]

Yes, you can check out my texture baking for beginners tutorial here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZabeJd-pdl3aqM Also, here is the link to my video on baking metallic maps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYDZg6WVeZ2Nprc

55k and counting?? Praise the Lord!!

[@RyanKingArt]

Yes! 55K! Thank you very much!

[@marsmotion]

is there a way to get the geo after the displace to be mesh you could export to another program?

[@RyanKingArt]

Yes, you would need to bake out the displacement texture to a texture map. Then you could add in the displacement texture with the displacement modifier. And you could also apply the displacement modifier if you wanted to, to make it actually geometry.

[@gisdeveloper]

when cycles rendering, no showing glow.. need Glare node with Flog Glow in Compositing.

[@RyanKingArt]

Yeah, to get a bloom effect in cycles, you could add a glare in the compositor

[@AdityaRaj-dt2kt]

Sir could you please make a tutorial on animating characters for beginners ?

[@RyanKingArt]

Thanks for the tutorial idea. I hope to make a tutorial on that sometime. 👍‍ For now, you could check out my Penguin character tutorial series.

@@RyanKingArt Sir actually I m watching n creating your Penguin tutorial from past 2 days , I m really enjoying it and will be completing that within a week maybe ! I forgot to mention about facial animation that's what I was saying about ! So plz have a look at that for us coz I really love the way you teach sir . Btw thanks for making so perfect tutorials we are blessed to have u

[@dev-rony]

Can you please tell me, How can I export this same material in unity?

[@rakeshrasapalli3554]

grate tutorials....today i learnt a good stuff...but when i am doing ,i am getting triangle on edges at final...can u help me to get rid bro..

[@RyanKingArt]

Hmm, try changing the Midlevel of the displacement node.

[@saphi2716]

Replace the color with a green and it whould sell as Borg Cube ^^

[@RyanKingArt]

Haha yeah.

[@timespectator5485]

Its work on curved object?

[@RyanKingArt]

Hmm, I'm not sure how well it will work on a curve.

[@victorobi2619]

Will it look the same when I export it to unreal engine

[@RyanKingArt]

if you bake all the texture maps, then it should yes. However, I'm not sure if displacement maps are supported in Unreal, so you may need to turn the displacement into actual geometry.

[@dinguskhan733]

i want to do something like this with geo nodes

its called bismuth

[@rob4986]

Sick! Thank you sir Ryan! I love this one. One little thing that's making me a little sad, is that "displacement" only works in cycles and I can't use cycles for my project... but nevertheless, you delivered yet again! (:

you can bake the displacement to a displacement map, and then you could use it in eevee.
