Leather Material Tutorial

As the title says, in this leather material tutorial I show my main method of creating materials. In photoshop I make the material base based on a picture. Sometimes from the web or a picture I've taken. It's made square and seamless for ease of use.

After a couple of larger updates by Arnold Renderer some parts of the tutorial is now old and not up to date. Anders Langlands addon to Arnold is deprecated and not possible to use anymore. But many of the principles is still possible to use, and that’s why I do not remove this tutorial form Youtube. Thank you for your understanding :)

Then processed it in Bitmap2Material or Materialize (only on windows) to create different texture maps. Then mixed together in Arnold Render.

Arnold + X-Particles part02

In this second part I show you how you can change color on collision. This technique can be used in many different ways where you need to go from one particle group to the other.

Arnold + X-Particles part01

In this is a quick tutorial I show how you can make simple trails (and short arrows) that also change color over life by using Arnold Render and X-Particles in Cinema 4D.

This is my second tutorial so sorry for the stuttering :)
