Title: Stainless Steel a.k.a. the one I cant create.
Post by: naikku on 2014-03-27, 13:44:51

Hi. I am waiting for http://coronamaterials.com/ (http://coronamaterials.com/) but in the meantime... Could you guys post your settings for a good or decent
Stainless Steel, if you have good brush-maps, post them also if you can.
That material is something I just cant duplicate and that is why I am asking for some help :)

What do you mean by stainless steel? Can you post some examples of what you are trying to achieve? For me, stainless steel means almost the same as chrome - simple, dark, mirror-like material.

Or maybe you mean something like this?

This shouldn't be hard. Basically it's glossy metal with bump map and anisotropy. I'll post here if I'll manage to create something useful. :)

Diffuse= 0
Reflection with glossines  and little anisotrophy -0.5 or 0.5 depends on the direction and high fresnel 10-20
and a map in the bump like this http://cullogo.com/textures-metal-psdgraphics-3000x2000/
and ready to go.

Here is my try. Settings included + a very weak (0,07) bump map with tiny stretched procedural noise.

This video helped as well. Not corona but you can apply it anyway.
