I’ve owned and loved this MiniDisc player/recorder for many years now, and it is still working. Embracing my permanent state of nostalgia for the 80s and 90s, I thought I’d make a short sequence using Blender.

Love it. I used to have one of these but it didn’t look that battered

Hehe, thanks so much. Fortunately my player isn’t really this battered - I used an excellent weathering add-on, but probably over-cooked it. The poor thing.

I couldn’t see it on the featured row, but thanks for featuring on Instagram 
Ha weird, the tag wasn’t added. I did it now; it should appear in the top row in 10 minutes or so.

I used the Smart Weathering add-on (pretty sure that’s what it’s called).

It’s the Smart Weathering add-on.

Did you add a light musgrave bump on the metal? It looks fantastic!

Thanks. It’s just a simple noise texture chucked through a bump node and plugged into the normal input (Principled BSDF).
Love the grunge!
