@silentheart00 I sure will keep doing my best with what I have 🙂
@yukinoh1989 Yukino I like to check your thread regularly, because I know that you ask a lot of and so I am also getting valuable information in questions 🙂
Very nice to see how you learn step by step
@csehz thank you so much I am happy to hear that. Somehow this time I also wandered of to other topics to ask a lot of info. I sure did learned a lot again. And I love that so much since it gives a good feeling :).
@smurfmier1985 Thanks for the tipps! Your recommendation to the Shader forger will help me very much. The node system and me aren’t friends yet 🙂
Yukino, wow. I like the truck and your room renderings so much.
You’re improving incredibly fast. If I learn things at least half as fast as you do, I’ll be happy.
@chrismckay thank you so much. It really makes me happy to hear that. And I indeed am learning at a really good speed. But that is of course than to @theluthier and the help of you guys the community. I am almost constantly in blender the past 2 months and week and keep learning so I am really happy to see ethe results from it
I do have a question. Especially on the blue you see a lot of scratches. Is there a way to increase the offset of each scratch or reduce them? Let me know if I must post a screenshot of the node tree I have so far
pfew i think i can call the toy truck done 🙂 .
at first i was thinking of adding stickers or someting else but i guess i am happy with how it looks now . and damn those node tree’s they grow really fast when you try to add someting 😮
this is the final result i have (trough i wish i knew how to give depth to the producenal scratches but i guess its still visible ).
first you have a somehow plastic material (exept for the iron of the wheels that is indeed brushed metal)
then i added scratches some dirt and dust (trough with the dirt on the yellow somehow it doesnt apprear everywhere :s i wonder what is causing that . if anyone knows pls tell me .
it should look like a toy that is pretty old
i have 2 versions but not sure what is best
this one has dust but set to facing
this one has set the dust to fresnel
found out how to get the dust better trough its still not as clear . i also added dust to the floor let me kno< <hat you think is best so far 
@yukinoh1989 I think your latest truck looks the best on the dust. Nice touch adding it to the floor.
@silentheart00 thank you. I also will be sharing my file with a better render and upload the start post
@silentheart00
newest render and file if someone want to take a look at it
@yukinoh1989 you made a lot of progress, the truck looks great! 😄
@smurfmier1985 Thank you so much miranda. i sure did my best . trough i still wonder about a few things that i cant figure out .
maybe some can help me with these questions.
1: on the front wheel you see 4 small lightblue dots does anyone know what is causing this ? is it the light ? someting of the node setup ?
2:somehow you see the dust but i like the effect better on the floor then on the toy. not sure eighter here why that is diffrent 🙁
3: is it possible to use the node wrangler in 2.8 ? i know kent used it but somehow its not working in my 2.8 file 🙁 so its hard to see some effects without the black and white value
4: is it possible to change the offset of the scratches ? so they are further placed from each other ?
5: as you see for the dirt somehow at the side of the toy it isnt appearing while in front it does appear. can this be fixed ?
6:if for example i want to use a scratch motive like this but want to add depth to them so its more like real scratches how could this be done
7:another one of the scratches. is it possible to set a certain collor for the scratches ? now they are darker then the base but what if i want to use that effect of the setup but more want to let it look like a kid painted with collors on the truck how can you set collors for that ?
sorry for the bunch of questions . but i tought that its better to add them here again . sometimes i didnt knew anymore where i asked a certain question so it can be hard to find back xD
@yukinoh1989 I suggest watching the Week 2 videos as it’ll answer some of your questions. But the updated version looks good. I’ll get back to you on some of those questions.
