Leopard 2 A4 (Timelapse)

Artwork Works in Progress
1

Hello.

So i started new youtube channel for making these timelapses with blender 3d.

Little notice. i am not a pro blender user. But i do have experience from past with 3d stuff.

Detailing these real life objects will depend on how good reference images i can get/find.

Here’s first part: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p047kWJo5vg

So. i am pretty close to uploading this model to Sketchfab.
I wanted to try PBR materials with metallic workflow. it’s my first time doing PBR materials/textures to model. I think i got it right mostly. I read many tutorials how to do specific maps and how light behaves on different surfaces.
Anyways here is pic’s from sketchfab editor. Any CC is welcome.

Here’s my first try with PBR and cycles.
Used this tutorial https://extremeistan.wordpress.com/2014/10/07/experimenting-with-physically-based-rendering-in-blender-cycles/
to setup nodes then i tweaked values to my liking.

A render.

Hallo! This project is now pretty much finished.

I had one little facepalm moment when i realized my normal map was showing color data lol.

Final renders are anyways.

Time to move to Finished Projects i guess :smiley:

Thanks for that youtube linky! “bookmarked”
