Reply To: 30 Days of Modeling

I was afraid this one would come;)

I went for some different rocks, because I loved the reference picture so much.

Tried to make a procedural rock displacement myself, but couldn’t get the desired result in one day, so I ‘cheated’ (or did I, is this cheating, if you can use a texture with normal map…) and used the Rock Generator from César Salcedo, who imho is a genius.

He is not very good at explaining what is happening, but the results he gets are gorgeous!

(Not for games, only Cycles.)

Shading is not great, but I only noticed the ‘wetness’ of the stones after having rendered over an hour, so I decided to leave it like it is…
