[@7k_Studio]

Perfect in its simplicity. I didn't know about AO technique, and now I'm like "that's what I was looking for all the time!" Thank you

[@DamianMathew]

i actually got the idea thanks to Substance, cause thats how they do it. First i baked AO and then was like: wait a minute, the AO Node should work.

[@Eliphas_Leary]

Helps a lot, thank you very much!

[@RajJaiswal538]

I prefer using texture coordinates(generated) -> mix RGB with noise texture with high roughness and detail -> separate xyz -> plug z in color ramp to adjust -> in mix shader as a factor.

[@xuigetzu]

Thanks for the tip sensei 🙏

[@supremebeme]

damn this was super useful, especially the seperate xyz trick thanks

[@dinisdesigncorner332]

i was hoping for a paint method too ..still super useful

[@migueltoledo7805]

Hi bro, I think that playlist may help you: kzbin.info/aero/PLW007QhybFgfXFgd_LkT_QquAIB813hJF

[@Med-B]

use noise texture or something i think it will work fine

[@LightArchitect]

Great tip!

[@k.p8064]

Thanks. I changed the linear on the color ramp to b-slime, it makes the results more realistic if your going for a dust texture

[@GrigoriyIgn]

I am a simple man, I see nodes, I press Like

[@DamianMathew]

I’m surprised it was enough nodes to hit the like threshold haha

[@Petruzzzo7]

genial! gracias i like el nuevo shader d tu piel

[@yousefyaghoobi282]

Set the start denoising sample at 2 to get smoother viewport

[@georgiosrigas8094]

Great Damian. Thanks. Can you make a tutorial using dirt via paint brush?

[@AKVisuals]

AO method seems cooler. Thanks man

[@samuelmoser]

Thanks for the informative video. I was looking for an easy way of creating such imperfections. I will apply that technique to all hard surface models I will make in the future. And pro tip: If you want to make it even more realistic. Use a surface imperfection map. Or better said a alpha map or roughness map. And apply it only to the "dirt" layer. Now your artwork looks even more realistic.

Nice

I bet that one dislike is rod halligan.

[@dograishan8504]

Could also use this for tyres that have been driven in dirt right?

[@mikerusby]

how to break up the black and white gradient with a noise texture. I just get weird rings or lines what i want is a gradient so the dirt is near the bottom of the car, but 'not' a smooth gradient of dirt to silver paint EDIT, its ok I combined it with a gradient texture with a mix, works fine

[@MMMM-sv1lk]

Awesome vid... Precise to the point... 👍😊

[@TMSKINS]

Amazing tutorial man!!

[@IMRANKHAN-qe9gz]

Man of simplicity 😎🔥🔥🔥..

[@zafry]

Great tutorial bro. Can we create a procedural edge wear without using pointiness.Some times it wont work. Thats why!

[@DamianMathew]

You can flip all normals and bake AO.

[@zafry]

@@DamianMathew Thank You!

[@haptic3d300]

My cars Are to clean!!! Damian: i got ya

[@ashishjadhao115]

Can we use texture paint or somethin??

[@DamianMathew]

Yes. Just keep everything W&B so it can be used at 'fac' in the mix. You can mix all kinds of stuff together with math like add or multiply. AO + Normal.Z + Paint anything really.

[@tothemoon7438]

Cool

[@yunfengli593]

HI damian, awesome tutorials all the time! Could you teach me how to put a car on a hdr environment naturally? my car always fly in the environment . I saw your mustang so stable even though you changed view angle. thank you!

[@NcD1o8]

I don't think his mustang is "on" the hdr. It seems to me that he's actually made the terrain the car is on similar to the hdr environment and made it appear seam less by raising the surroundings. Just a guess, hope it helps :)

[@yunfengli593]

@@NcD1o8 yeah I agree with you ( ^_^ )/

[@enigmawstudios4130]

Curious if you've used the RBC auto rig addon

[@TwinLoki]

Thanx for the tutorial! BTW, there are no limitations in Optix anymore since v2.92. AO and Round Corners work fine.

[@DamianMathew]

Aaah! Yeah I kind of noticed on baking, I was confused. Okay so they then finally added it, awesome!

[@haptic3d300]

can you do a tutourial how to get this dust like city cars have ?? not this madmax ralley thing lol

is it possible to bake this into a texture?

[@JustFun-tv5er]

So how would you do this on substance painter?

[@oldaman8388]

How bake this together for Unity ?

[@horiamoldovean6074]

Do a tutorial on the dome

[@DamianMathew]

I could, but it’s one of the main fundings of this channel. I’m not a fan of keeping secrets but at the moment it’s kind of necessary since I’m reinvesting all income. For example I’m also funding blender with KZbin money so if no one would do what I’m doing, blender would not be where it is today. ‘Free’ doesn’t really exist. Free only works if people support it with money - as sad as it sounds. Once this channel grows and I’m less dependent on one assets income, I will make a video about it. 0€ of KZbin went into my pocket and this channel made a few thousand. All reinvested into blender related things as well as viewers like you that needed financial support.

Yeah should work! But I didn’t try it.

Was searching for a tut like this, thank you. Maybe a paint model for mud dirt effects.

Hey... What gpu do you use

2080 RTX in this Video but set on CUDA, not Optix.

From where do you have the background?

[@polygonmasterddd2229]

Hey ! Good lessons! do a lesson - dust from under the wheels of the car ...

[@DamianMathew]

To be honest AO should work well. You could also bake AO and use the that so the AO doesnt change while rolling.

[@AJSEditsEntertainment]

Others: I like it clean, not even a spec aof dust Damian: I like it dirty btw nice tip.. what abt using texture paint to paint in the dirt?

[@DamianMathew]

Yes! You can use AO as a base and also add diferent masks like Noise or like you say Texture Paint. It's all about mixing everything, not just AO.

[@nicolasleonnarino3159]

The AO method looks more accurate

[@karlkastor]

Isn't the best way to paint brush dirt on there so that the position of the dirt makes sense (e.g. behind the wheels)

[@nitinsharmax129]

Do start using Cycles X, it will attract a lot of audience... also optix now supports AO node

[@DamianMathew]

Yes yes I already am, but yeah i should make a video about it, good idea!

@@DamianMathew 20 dollars 😵

[@DamianMathew]

@@theturtle9810 price is always relative. If you buy it and render, someone sees it, and you get a 10k€ project. I’d call 20$ pretty cheap haha. Also im not saying you can’t make it yourself. Basically you are buying my time but you could also use yours. If it takes too long to make it yourself, once again you see maybe 20$ isn’t that much if you value your time. And last but not least haha this money doesn’t go into my pocket. I’m reinvesting every cent in things like blender fund and directly to people like you. Ofcourse not everyone will profit but I’m trying my best to support the ones that deserve it most. I’m looking forward to your response haha
