Scene File Lighting Study

Hi Patrons,I´m sure, this one will be useful for you. It is perfect to study lighting in 3D, plus: It will work awesome, when you put soft bodies into it;-).This time, I can´t provide you with the included dynamic simulation but use it as a perfect base to implement your own dynamic simulation.As you can see, I rendered out different versions where I changed the lighting situation. Try it by you...

Scene File of the Day

Hi Patrons,You told me, you like scene files and here´s one more straight out of the Cinema 4D bakery. It´s still warm.There is a lot of good stuff to study in this one, especially the materials, soft bodies and the volume builder/mesher setup.One note: In the pink rubber material I am multipling some surface-imperfection textures together in the roughness channel to achieve the nice reflections...

Scene File will be available soon.

One more scene file, cause you like it;-) This one will be full of cool little techniques. It covers soft bodies, some cool octane materials and volume builder setups. Plus couple of keyframes. Good stuff to study.Best,Markus

More explanations in the upcoming training.In the next scene file I will give you 20 more costum build objects...

One more Teaser for the upcoming "Tutorial Enthusiast" Tier

More scenes files next week

Hi Patrons,I just wanted to say: From now on, scene files will be provided regularly. I focused more on the tutorial part and kind of... didn't recognized how helpful theses files can be for studying. So, I promise to do a better job with that part starting next week.Best, Markus
