Hi all. In this thread I’m going to show some cycles materials that I think you could find interesting. I hope you like them, and if you can improve them you can show how to do it here: EDIT: All materials posted here are procedural. I don’t use images for textures.

[image] RickyBlender: i see a power of 10 is it not too large a value ? also can you give the color ramp set up seems to be like 4 values there ! this one looks nice as a leather thanks Hi @RickyBlender , the color ramp node wasn’t enough. It should be easiest with the new RGB curves node…

Hi everybody. Today I’m going to show you a worn leather material. [image] To make this, I needed two things: 1.- including noise in the color material. 2.- making wrinkles appear clearer in the material, like worn leather. So I have changed the leather group to include another ramp node for …

finally got file from blendswap now i reduce sample down to 10 and 20 but the displacement for the leather is very small is three a way to increase displacement to get it workign with low sample value thanks

there is supposed to be some changes for bump in 2.67 might work better then what it this new things about RGB doing what ? salutations

bump depends on the scale of the object nice shader

Just wanted to say thanks for these post… I’m just getting started with Cycles and node based textures… these really help out alot… I have been having some trouble with getting bump mapping to really work for me in cycles by the way… if you have any pointers on that please let me know…

I think these are some basic tips I hope help you. Yah that helps… I have been using 3D softwares for quite a number of years now… Blender only about the past 2 years… but I have never used nodes in any software before so… We all get to be noobs again some time…
