Thanks, the chainmail is made with the tissue addon in Blender.
I first tried with the build in instancing. Didn’t know about this feature until monday.


Got to this point

I kind of worked until you start focussing on the chainmail. It’s just a lot of rings over the base mesh. I theory this should work.

Then I tried the tissue addon. Warning the addon is included in Blender but it didn’t work in Blender 5.2. As with most things in the nice Blender community someone made a video on how to fix this.

I used the result of my first test. For the final render I used the grab brush in sculpt mode to move the chainmail in the pose (slightly turned head)


I did a remesh of the base mesh to form even quads
The part used in tissue & another view of the knight:

That tissue addon is very powerfull when you get it to work.

Thank you! The metal texture was made with the MatPlus addon for Blender.

This is like having Substance painter inside Blender . I recommend this addon if you want to create complex materials fast and easy inside Blender.

It bakes the needed base maps for your mesh (in this case from a sculpted highpoly mesh)

After that you can apply all kind of layers with masks.
I stared with a base metal texture.
Added dirt layer.
Added edge damage layer
Added scratches layer
