Glass Dragon Testing using CMV

[pxlpaul (Paul)]

Hi All,

Playing with Cycles Material Vault within Blender 2.83 and so far all seems good.

Here’s the well know dragon model from Three D Scans here. C&C welcomed. My daughter says it looks like a gummy bear / candy although it’s supposed to be glass.

Cheers,
Paul

I think the reason it looks like a gummy bear instead of glass is because the surface isn’t reflecting a clear image. The reflections are just white diffused light. Maybe lower roughness and an hdri might increase realism. Looks cool though.

Hi All,

Tried out the dragon with a couple new textures from Sayan’s new Grounds and Roads shader pack:

Smart Shaders: Grounds & Roads | Realistic Procedural Shaders ( CYCLES & EEVEE )

Introducing Smart Shaders… Smart Shaders is a vision to build an extensive library of high quality procedural materials. Grounds & Roads is the first collection in this on-going series, focusing on nature renders. [Smart Shaders | Blender 2.83] GET 15% DISCOUNT IF YOU BUY BEFORE JULY 6TH : PHOTOREALISTIC RENDERS. Realtime Road in EEVEE [road] Moss in CYCLES [moss] Snow (rough) in CYCLES [snow_rough] 100% PROCEDURAL All shaders are completely procedurally generated, whi…

I like the textures which proved easy to use as these are all procedural textures.

Cheers,
Paul
