3DCREATIVE MAGAZINE | Texturing sci-fi ships with MARI using the grime textures provided, and go around the ship and paint the leak stains and dirt buildup in places where you would expect to find it. The key to this is not to overdo the dirt unless that is the look you are going for. Adding dirt to the specular channel: 16 Before merging our diffuse textures we must first duplicate and drag our dirt and grime textures into the specular channel. We want these textures to be dull and non-reflective, so we must apply an adjustment stack and by using the HSV adjustment we can reduce the value until the grime texture is almost black. At this point it’s safe to select all of the layers and export them to your desktop. I would recommend renaming them. TOP TIPS Selecting individual parts To select the individual parts of a piece of geometry, first set the Selection mode to Face and also enable the Smart Selection mode. This is very useful for masking. Once you have a piece of geometry selected this way, you can right-click to access a menu which will enable the option to Hide Unselected and isolate the piece of geometry. Using Smart Selection mode UI tips When you open a channel stack, you can either drag the window near the edges of the workspace and a slot will automatically open, or you can simply click the little pin tab on the top-right of the box to temporarily tack the window anywhere within your workspace. Try using the pinning function Adding our dirt textures to the specular channel Making normal maps: We can make 17 our normal maps by using the diffuse textures. First we need to create a new channel for the normal map, then duplicate the diffuse textures and drag them into the normal channel. As the diffuse textures are all separate, we will need to select them all and merge them into one. Then by adding an adjustment stack and selecting ‘Height to Normal’, we can right-click and export this layer to the desktop and rename it accordingly. Now the texturing is done and the model is ready for rendering. 3DCREATIVEMAG.COM
