WEBVTT 00:02.100 --> 00:07.800 Hello everybody and welcome to this video where we're going to have lots of fun making a dynamic material 00:07.890 --> 00:12.900 not only just the materials going to change over time but we're also going to deform the mesh as well 00:13.170 --> 00:15.030 using a very similar technique. 00:15.170 --> 00:18.840 So as you can see with this video that I've got up on the screen at the moment we're going to start 00:18.840 --> 00:20.600 with a nice glossy finish. 00:20.660 --> 00:25.710 We're going to decay that we're going to make it rust away and then we'll get actually deform the mesh 00:25.710 --> 00:26.780 based upon that. 00:26.790 --> 00:31.810 Now we are going to use a few of the features a blender two point seven nine. 00:31.920 --> 00:35.370 So if you've not Paul VI installed on your computer we're going to have to do that. 00:35.370 --> 00:39.110 So two point seventy nine is the starting point you will need for this video. 00:39.120 --> 00:43.710 Namely we're going to use the principle shader and some of the experimental features will be a bit more 00:43.710 --> 00:46.980 stable as we use them into Point 7 9. 00:48.240 --> 00:53.430 Now if we have a look at the screen over here we have also a few things to do to set up. 00:53.430 --> 00:55.260 So let's go ahead and do that now. 00:55.350 --> 00:57.610 So I'm going to click away to dismiss the splash screen. 00:57.630 --> 00:59.060 And we got the default cube. 00:59.070 --> 01:01.890 Now you may have other add ons installed. 01:01.890 --> 01:04.920 This is a pretty stock version of blender. 01:04.920 --> 01:07.590 But we're going to have to make sure we got a couple of things installed. 01:07.590 --> 01:11.460 First of all so you guys can follow along without any issues. 01:11.460 --> 01:16.380 The first one that I want to show you is when we're going to be rendering we need to make sure that 01:16.380 --> 01:21.530 we're in cycle so we go to the very top on the info head a bar and switch that from Blender render to 01:21.540 --> 01:26.100 cycles render because we're going to use the cycles rendering engine the next thing that we're going 01:26.100 --> 01:33.750 to need to do is go down to the render properties and make sure that the feature set is set from supported 01:34.080 --> 01:35.730 to experimental. 01:35.730 --> 01:39.800 Now here comes our first warning when it comes to using the experimental features. 01:39.810 --> 01:45.510 It is incredibly important that you get into the habit of saving and saving regularly because as we 01:45.510 --> 01:49.770 go through this you will find that occasionally blender will crash. 01:49.770 --> 01:55.720 Not only are we using an experimental feature sets but we are also going to be rendering a lot will 01:55.770 --> 02:00.000 have to come in and out of rendering to show what is actually going on on the screen. 02:00.000 --> 02:02.620 We won't see some of the output until we do that. 02:02.880 --> 02:08.460 The next thing I'm going to do is go to my add on and go to the File menu come down to the user preferences 02:08.730 --> 02:11.110 and from there we can go to add ons. 02:11.430 --> 02:16.470 And I'm going to enable node Wrangler I don't think I'm going to be using anything out soon the search 02:16.470 --> 02:19.870 box I've typed in notes or I don't have to go searching. 02:20.010 --> 02:22.000 And then finally we've got node Wrangler. 02:22.000 --> 02:23.650 Make sure there's a tick in that box. 02:23.670 --> 02:26.760 Now in general that's a good one to have on any way at the moment. 02:26.760 --> 02:29.760 It will just apply to this current blender file we're working on. 02:29.760 --> 02:34.900 But if you want it to apply to every blender file you can go ahead and save your user settings. 02:34.920 --> 02:39.810 Once we've gone ahead and done that I'm going to close down the user preferences and save my files so 02:39.810 --> 02:44.900 we get going and I'm going to save this as Rusty. 02:45.660 --> 02:46.400 Pipe. 02:46.860 --> 02:50.850 Okay so let's crack on now and start generating our object. 02:50.880 --> 02:56.030 Now in this particular case I decided to create my object in a slightly different way. 02:56.040 --> 03:00.120 So even though it might look like I've extruded a cylinder or something like that in this case that's 03:00.120 --> 03:06.060 not what I've done something to clear down wanted to go into edit mode actually on this Q and just delete 03:06.060 --> 03:07.330 the top vertices. 03:07.350 --> 03:11.820 And I'm in virtex mode at the moment so I'm just going to quickly select holding the Shift key right 03:11.820 --> 03:13.410 click for those top few. 03:13.430 --> 03:16.810 I'm going to press the x key to delete and I'm going to select vertices. 03:16.830 --> 03:22.350 This will leave us with something we can work on now that ideally should be in a better position than 03:22.350 --> 03:24.800 down there but we can sort that out in a moment. 03:24.840 --> 03:26.970 The next day I'm going to do is delete the face. 03:27.060 --> 03:29.030 So let's go ahead and delete that face. 03:29.040 --> 03:35.280 But I'm not going to just do faces and do only faces and that will leave the surrounding edge so this 03:35.280 --> 03:39.310 will be the base for our pipe that we're working on our rusty pipe. 03:39.330 --> 03:44.490 But the next thing we need to do here is actually add something else to give it a bit more interest. 03:44.490 --> 03:45.750 That's really all this is about. 03:45.750 --> 03:48.530 I mean you can you can create your own shape as you go. 03:48.540 --> 03:54.780 If you wanted to select everything here and move it up on the z axis by one so it's in the middle of 03:54.780 --> 03:55.500 our scene. 03:55.550 --> 03:56.640 Now I'm going to move across. 03:56.640 --> 04:01.650 It doesn't matter whether it's in the positive or negative direction here but I'm going to move it in 04:01.650 --> 04:05.380 the x direction so g x and then buy one. 04:05.400 --> 04:08.830 So we've got our our bass coming together here. 04:09.150 --> 04:14.640 Now the final thing I'm going to do is I'm going to go back a virtex Select and create a triangle going 04:14.640 --> 04:16.980 up here so I'm going to extrude. 04:17.520 --> 04:19.300 So E for extrude. 04:19.320 --> 04:25.160 So we've got this now floating virtex connected with an edge and a groove Z by two. 04:25.500 --> 04:29.140 And then I'm going to move that across in the y direction by once a G. 04:29.150 --> 04:30.420 Why one. 04:30.600 --> 04:35.970 And then I can extrude down to this vertex down here now in order to make sure I'm not faffing around 04:35.970 --> 04:38.330 trying to join these two things together in a bit. 04:38.330 --> 04:39.740 By removing doubles. 04:39.960 --> 04:47.330 What I can go ahead and do is when I extruding I can snap to virtex and merge vertices automatically. 04:47.400 --> 04:52.980 So we go along to the aethereally head a bar here and we turn on snapping which is this little magnet. 04:52.980 --> 04:57.930 Now if you can't see everything if you've not got a high enough resolution display you can use the mouse 04:57.930 --> 05:02.310 wheel to scroll backwards and forwards on any of these header bars where you can't see anything. 05:02.310 --> 05:06.480 I'll just demonstrate that if I pull this across so we cannot see that magnet. 05:06.600 --> 05:10.060 We can use the scroll wheel to pull it across and then we can see it. 05:10.200 --> 05:12.550 This just make that a decent size again. 05:12.630 --> 05:17.910 Okay the next thing is what are we going to snap to Will increment might be fine but I'm not going to 05:17.910 --> 05:18.440 risk that. 05:18.440 --> 05:23.630 I'm going to actually try and snap to the vertex and this means we can pick this individual point here. 05:23.700 --> 05:29.160 Now we go ahead and extrude and puts a vertex on top of here will actually end up with two vertices 05:29.160 --> 05:32.010 in one place occupying the same space. 05:32.010 --> 05:37.180 So in order to make sure that doesn't happen I'm going to go along a little further and there's an ought 05:37.200 --> 05:43.650 there's two arrows butting heads together and that is automatically merge vertices moved to the same 05:43.650 --> 05:46.590 location and because with snapping it will be the same location. 05:46.590 --> 05:52.440 So with all those three things sets I compress each to extrude again and this time I just move my cursor 05:52.440 --> 05:54.270 over that Vertex. 05:54.270 --> 05:59.700 There we go and it snaps in place and it's merged and if we print G we can see that that is moving all 05:59.700 --> 06:00.260 together. 06:00.360 --> 06:05.190 It's not moving individually so perfect that's that's actually everything we need done in order to set 06:05.190 --> 06:06.680 up our basic shape. 06:06.970 --> 06:12.720 Okay so it didn't quite look like that it looked like it was there was two of them and that's what we 06:12.720 --> 06:18.360 need to do so I'm going to go ahead to the modifiers tab and come out of edit mode into object mode 06:18.720 --> 06:24.300 and then from here I'm going to go and go to the modifiers tab in the Properties window. 06:24.760 --> 06:30.330 And I'm going to add our first modifier Now there are going to be all three or four modifiers as we 06:30.330 --> 06:30.990 go through this. 06:30.990 --> 06:36.840 But let's go ahead and add our first one our first one is going to be a mirror modifier So we're generating 06:36.900 --> 06:40.200 new mesh data so we go to the generate column. 06:40.320 --> 06:42.400 If we go down there it is mirror. 06:42.630 --> 06:48.540 Now fortunately I've made it along the x axis so when I reflect it among the x axis it does actually 06:48.540 --> 06:50.610 just put it there which is absolutely fine. 06:50.610 --> 06:55.680 I'm also going to turn on clipping if I accidentally go ahead and move any of this geometry What I don't 06:55.680 --> 07:01.890 want to happen is for it to end up with intersecting geometry turning on clipping will help prevent 07:01.890 --> 07:02.390 that. 07:02.520 --> 07:05.210 Okay so that's the first modifier set up. 07:05.310 --> 07:12.390 Now if we go ahead and add in a nother modifier this time a skin modifier. 07:12.480 --> 07:16.130 Now this modifies actually go it's another generate generating mesh. 07:16.140 --> 07:17.170 We go to the skin. 07:17.370 --> 07:22.320 We can see that it puts around our sort of been that we had created. 07:22.320 --> 07:29.640 Now this isn't ideal at the moment we can see blatantly here that this is well not to be there at the 07:29.640 --> 07:30.060 moment. 07:30.060 --> 07:31.020 It's very rigid. 07:31.020 --> 07:33.870 Now this might be a look that you're going for that's absolutely fine. 07:33.960 --> 07:36.290 But that's not the look for I want to go for. 07:36.450 --> 07:41.870 So in this particular case I'm going to hide away the skin and hide away the mirror. 07:42.210 --> 07:43.560 Just dropping those down. 07:43.590 --> 07:50.290 Now let's just see here if a if a modifier the subdivision surface modifiers to solve our issue. 07:50.450 --> 07:56.760 So we scroll down again this is generated because we generate in new geometry subdivisions surface and 07:56.940 --> 07:58.400 that's looking pretty good. 07:58.620 --> 08:02.790 Now let's knock up the levels of subdivision surficial is a little bit more. 08:03.150 --> 08:05.580 Yeah that's a that's so quite a good start. 08:05.580 --> 08:10.790 Now in this particular case there are a couple of other things that we need to turn on. 08:10.980 --> 08:16.800 Now I am going to turn on adaptive and I'm going to leave everything how it currently is. 08:16.800 --> 08:18.860 We may have to work with that later. 08:18.870 --> 08:22.880 Now adaptive is something that will subdivide more. 08:22.930 --> 08:29.250 The close service object is to the camera when it comes to rendering and subdivide less further away 08:29.490 --> 08:34.910 so that basically means that the further you get away from the camera the less room work has to be done 08:34.920 --> 08:36.230 calculations have to be done. 08:36.330 --> 08:38.730 So ultimately you will end up with a faster roundup. 08:38.790 --> 08:45.120 However to counter that the closer something is to the camera the more it might be chopped up and therefore 08:45.470 --> 08:47.040 have a more work that needs to be done. 08:47.040 --> 08:52.440 So if you got a lot of your object really close to the camera you may find that this will slow down 08:52.440 --> 08:53.620 your rendering slightly. 08:53.700 --> 08:59.010 But if you've got a scene like this Let's say we set up the camera along these lines where a lot of 08:59.010 --> 09:02.280 the geometries far back and there's only really this front bit. 09:02.430 --> 09:02.990 That's next. 09:03.000 --> 09:03.800 The camera. 09:03.930 --> 09:07.770 Find that it looks much better when it comes to chopping up the geometry. 09:07.830 --> 09:11.470 When we start deforming this meshes it rusts away in a bit. 09:11.700 --> 09:14.900 Okay so we've got the base mesh all lined up here. 09:14.910 --> 09:16.740 There are a couple of other things that are all one. 09:16.770 --> 09:18.700 To do at this point in time. 09:18.750 --> 09:23.850 First of all I'm going to turn on smooth shade and so in object mode I'm going to make sure that smooth 09:23.850 --> 09:25.420 shading is turned on. 09:26.850 --> 09:32.310 And then I'm going to rename my cue book show rename it let's call it rust the pipe. 09:33.460 --> 09:35.740 Might as well get our naming right from the very beginning. 09:35.740 --> 09:41.170 I'm not sure it took smooth shading it doesn't look particularly smooth flat smooth. 09:41.800 --> 09:42.610 Interesting. 09:42.620 --> 09:43.170 There might. 09:43.250 --> 09:46.270 And let's go ahead now and add a bit of colour to this. 09:46.270 --> 09:47.810 So let's go to the materials tab. 09:47.830 --> 09:49.930 An add in a bass material. 09:49.930 --> 09:54.860 Now this is going to actually be a dynamic material that will end up modifying over time. 09:54.940 --> 09:59.290 But I'm just going to name it pipe for the moment and I'm going to click he use notes. 09:59.380 --> 10:01.670 Let's go ahead and use that new principal shader. 10:01.810 --> 10:07.630 It's basically a load of shaders all pumped together and that actually makes the node set up just that 10:07.630 --> 10:11.300 little bit easier and less involved in some cases. 10:11.320 --> 10:16.960 He also does some calculations in the background as well some highly metal shelfs there and I'm going 10:16.960 --> 10:19.930 to go into the node editor and start editing. 10:19.930 --> 10:25.870 Now before we start going through and adding a ton of stuff here let's just keep it simple so get rid 10:25.870 --> 10:32.920 of our diffuse be STF shader and press X to get rid of that or make sure you've only got that one selected. 10:32.940 --> 10:35.880 Otherwise that can cause you a few headaches. 10:36.490 --> 10:37.400 There we go. 10:37.730 --> 10:44.910 Information is only that selected delete that and I'm going to add in and a shader of type print support. 10:44.930 --> 10:46.210 B s the f. 10:46.260 --> 10:52.900 Now at this point I tend to use the search feature so I will type in P R Ah. 10:52.960 --> 10:54.610 There we go it's there straight away. 10:54.640 --> 10:58.510 That's the general thing that I will do when I'm looking for something. 10:58.550 --> 11:01.810 And here we have the b s t f we can plug that into the surface. 11:01.810 --> 11:05.720 Now will also be using the displacement part of this in a moment. 11:05.830 --> 11:09.000 So there's going to be sort of two halves two on Node structure. 11:09.130 --> 11:14.080 We'll sort out roughly how it looks to begin with and then we'll talk about its defamations So talk 11:14.080 --> 11:17.710 about its colours and sort of building up the model and adding material. 11:17.710 --> 11:21.570 Now we're talking about animating and deforming it over time. 11:21.970 --> 11:24.870 So there will be another modifier will add on in a few minutes. 11:25.000 --> 11:29.520 So our base colour Now I picked green before I'm going to pick red this time. 11:29.590 --> 11:33.310 Now before we do anything else I'm going to save my work. 11:33.490 --> 11:38.170 Okay so there are a couple of other things I just want to finish off here to set the scene and make 11:38.170 --> 11:43.450 sure that it's not so jerky as we start being a bit more advanced with our rendering stuff. 11:43.450 --> 11:45.660 Now I am recording at the moment. 11:45.700 --> 11:47.650 Obviously you are witnessing that. 11:47.650 --> 11:53.910 So I'm going to change my device from my s.p. which is being used for the recording to GP you. 11:53.930 --> 11:57.850 Now you may not have the option in general GP use are going to be there. 11:57.850 --> 12:02.740 This type of workflow especially when it comes to rendering which were going to be doing hopping in 12:02.740 --> 12:03.350 and out. 12:03.380 --> 12:06.640 But if you're working on the s.p. you that's absolutely fine. 12:06.640 --> 12:12.880 This will also work on s.p. Use and you won't have the bottleneck that I have with recording anyway 12:13.210 --> 12:18.130 so GP use turned up just going to save that as we're going through and just test the rendering that 12:18.130 --> 12:20.290 is working Excellent. 12:20.350 --> 12:22.690 Now a couple of other things or look that's a lot smoother as well. 12:22.690 --> 12:24.360 Wish I'd done that earlier. 12:24.490 --> 12:32.010 Let's go ahead and add in a mesh and this time it's going to be a plane and the scale up by a. 12:32.140 --> 12:33.010 A silly amount. 12:33.010 --> 12:34.950 Probably scale by 20. 12:36.490 --> 12:39.010 Excellent so that's all scaled up. 12:39.130 --> 12:42.400 I'm going to rename that ground because that's essentially what it's going to be. 12:42.400 --> 12:44.420 Now what happens if we render this scene now. 12:44.540 --> 12:45.940 Okay it's looking good. 12:45.940 --> 12:50.900 We need a bit more light in the scene now we could go about making a more complex light set up. 12:50.910 --> 12:57.580 I'm simply going to go to my lamp and change its type to a sunlamp and when to use nodes and increase 12:57.580 --> 13:00.240 the strength to maybe 3. 13:01.230 --> 13:03.000 Yep that looks pretty good. 13:03.020 --> 13:04.920 Now looking at this. 13:04.920 --> 13:08.640 This doesn't look like a metallic your a painted pipe at all. 13:08.640 --> 13:12.820 This looks like a lump of plastic at the moment so let's rectify that straightaway. 13:12.960 --> 13:16.620 Let's go to our principal shader and change the roughness. 13:16.620 --> 13:18.960 Drop it down to point one. 13:20.540 --> 13:25.940 Maybe a little higher actually or a little lower in this case so point nought five. 13:26.840 --> 13:32.510 Yes I'm happy with that as a starting value now as it starts getting rusty what we can do is make it 13:32.510 --> 13:38.690 rougher in places and we can change that and guide that based upon some textures in a few moments. 13:38.690 --> 13:44.120 But at this moment in time we're getting everything ready getting a rough approximation of what we're 13:44.120 --> 13:45.750 going to be going for. 13:45.950 --> 13:52.250 Also we can see here that our our object is embedded in the ground so I'm going to grab the ground move 13:52.250 --> 13:57.970 it down on the z axis and by only a little bit because I don't want it to disappear and I think I've 13:57.970 --> 14:02.600 still got snapping turned on if I have that's going to cause me an issue because it will be snapping 14:02.600 --> 14:04.480 to things when I don't want to. 14:05.950 --> 14:07.890 Yes I still have that being turned on. 14:08.110 --> 14:09.190 So let's turn that off. 14:09.190 --> 14:11.680 Grab the floor g z. 14:11.680 --> 14:16.180 There we go it's lowering down and I will not make it levitate about there. 14:16.180 --> 14:17.860 That looks absolutely fine to me. 14:17.950 --> 14:20.690 Just by I it doesn't matter at this point in time. 14:20.770 --> 14:26.430 So we've got a nice shiny metal bar or a painted metal bar that we can start making Rusty. 14:26.440 --> 14:31.720 Now I do want to show you I'm going to save my work do save regularly because we're going to be rendering 14:31.720 --> 14:35.050 lots and it will crash it will tell you it will crash at some point. 14:35.050 --> 14:36.330 We want to avoid that. 14:36.430 --> 14:41.320 But what I want to do here is just show you what sort of notes set up we're going to be approaching 14:41.320 --> 14:46.240 for with the material on here just to give you an overview of where we're going before we actually go 14:46.240 --> 14:46.720 there. 14:46.780 --> 14:52.550 So I'll save that I'm going to open up my rusti demonstration and let's get rid of everything else. 14:52.570 --> 14:55.350 But the note sets up Okay so here we go. 14:55.360 --> 15:02.290 Now don't be afraid when you have a look at this it is a lot going on here but we're going to build 15:02.290 --> 15:07.570 this up slowly as we go through and I'm going to explain what each bit is actually doing. 15:07.570 --> 15:11.370 In fact it does look like there's something that's there that's redundant as well. 15:11.370 --> 15:16.270 By the looks of it this little noise texture at the top here is its outputs aren't actually plugged 15:16.270 --> 15:17.200 into anywhere. 15:17.350 --> 15:21.970 But let's zoom in just for a moment to the principal shade because that's all we really have at the 15:21.970 --> 15:22.630 moment. 15:22.840 --> 15:26.270 And let's just have a look at the few changes that have happened here. 15:26.260 --> 15:31.420 Now the moment we've got the principal shedded coming out and going into the output what the material 15:31.420 --> 15:35.790 looks like what the surface of that material renders like. 15:35.800 --> 15:39.520 Now notice that the first thing that's been changed is the base colour. 15:39.700 --> 15:44.860 And obviously as something goes Rusty it's going to change from its its painted colour to perhaps an 15:44.890 --> 15:50.210 orange colour because it's rusting and because of that we need to control that over time. 15:50.320 --> 15:56.050 And that's why we've got series of notes will look at those in a few moments plugged into the base colour. 15:56.050 --> 15:58.700 The other things that are changing are it's metallic now. 15:58.750 --> 16:00.040 And it's roughness. 16:00.040 --> 16:07.240 Now when you start you will get some metal coming through before it starts going rusty so I'm going 16:07.240 --> 16:14.920 to change the metallic appearance of the surface and also the roughness itself as something goes Rusty. 16:14.940 --> 16:20.430 It's going to be smooth painted to begin with but as it starts to go rusty Well it's going to get rougher 16:20.470 --> 16:23.950 as well it's not going to be as shiny as it once was. 16:23.950 --> 16:25.200 Simple as that really. 16:25.510 --> 16:30.550 So that it is quite complex as you go back here and we can see there's a bit of crossover. 16:30.550 --> 16:34.120 This bottom part is all about displacement in reality. 16:34.120 --> 16:37.140 And this top half is all about how the colours are changing. 16:37.180 --> 16:41.730 However as you can see these nodes are connected in such a way a bit messy. 16:41.740 --> 16:47.710 This is an experimental project after all but these are there's a great deal of crossover because as 16:47.710 --> 16:52.840 you can expect as something starts to rust away you're also going to end up with it changing colour 16:52.870 --> 16:58.780 and the parameters how it is rusting away will also dictate how the colours change as well and that's 16:58.780 --> 17:00.550 why there is this crossover. 17:00.550 --> 17:05.280 So what you do now is hop back into our project and start building this up. 17:06.720 --> 17:11.790 Okay so we're back over in our projects here we've done the modelling aspect and we've got a base material 17:11.790 --> 17:15.320 on here that's the modelling part pretty much done. 17:15.540 --> 17:20.790 As far as this go so we've got all the geometry out of the way the next thing we need to work on is 17:20.790 --> 17:26.190 how this is actually looking in terms of how it's going to act as it rusts away. 17:26.220 --> 17:31.800 That's quite important because it's very easy to basically get the wrong parameters or do things in 17:31.800 --> 17:35.070 a funny order and then you end up having to backtrack. 17:35.070 --> 17:39.680 So let's just make sure we're doing this in a in a more logical way. 17:39.750 --> 17:46.020 Now the first thing we need to do is add in a mix shader Now then switch rended mode on hopefully won't 17:46.020 --> 17:50.400 cause any crashes we do have to obviously be careful of that if it does crash. 17:50.430 --> 17:55.570 I may have to go back a little bit hopefully because I save Reguly that won't be an issue. 17:55.840 --> 17:56.120 OK. 17:56.130 --> 18:00.690 So we have a base colour here we need to go between one set up and another. 18:01.140 --> 18:05.970 And what we need to do in order to do that and there's there are many ways you could go about this by 18:05.970 --> 18:09.160 the way but we're going to try and keep it simple. 18:09.210 --> 18:15.330 And so we're going to have to r.g. BE nodes which are basically the colour red green blue. 18:15.360 --> 18:20.820 So let's go ahead and add in another node and call it what is R G B. 18:20.820 --> 18:21.300 Here we go. 18:21.300 --> 18:25.710 So we've got a lot of options in here but in this case we just want r.g. be and this is basically a 18:25.710 --> 18:26.970 colour selector. 18:26.970 --> 18:32.490 So I'm going to go shifta and duplicate that so we've got two colour selectors we'll have our original 18:32.490 --> 18:37.650 colour up here which is going to be red and we're have a rusty colour for the moment an orange. 18:37.710 --> 18:38.550 That's absolutely fine. 18:38.550 --> 18:40.340 We don't need to do anything else. 18:40.350 --> 18:46.740 The next thing we need to do is mix these two together so we can go from one colour to the other. 18:46.740 --> 18:52.890 Now of course you can do this in multiple ways and in fact you can do it in a gradual way and have multiple 18:52.890 --> 18:56.940 layers of mix which is essentially what I did in that more advanced one. 18:57.030 --> 19:00.210 But you can go ahead and build that up yourself for the moment. 19:00.210 --> 19:02.030 Let's go ahead and mix these two together. 19:02.040 --> 19:02.690 So. 19:03.990 --> 19:09.030 Good to add we shift in a and I'm going to type in mix in this case. 19:09.030 --> 19:11.960 We're not mixing shaders we're mixing are. 19:12.290 --> 19:13.660 If you go ahead and pop that in. 19:13.850 --> 19:17.000 And then we've got colour one attach colour to. 19:17.390 --> 19:20.930 And then we can go in and apply a base colour. 19:20.990 --> 19:26.480 Now at the moment as we slide the factor backwards and forwards you can see we can go from our red to 19:26.480 --> 19:27.540 our orange. 19:27.560 --> 19:28.480 Pretty neat. 19:28.490 --> 19:29.750 Hey there we go. 19:29.750 --> 19:30.400 Job done. 19:30.500 --> 19:36.680 Well unfortunately things don't rust like that do very rust in a more random pattern so we're going 19:36.680 --> 19:42.350 to have to have something there that's controlling that control in this colour. 19:42.350 --> 19:47.140 But based upon it changing kind of randomly rather than just the whole thing at once. 19:47.180 --> 19:49.310 So I'm going to change this factor. 19:49.310 --> 19:54.110 And for that we're going to use a texture now I'm going to make this RG be just a little smaller for 19:54.110 --> 19:54.890 the moment. 19:55.000 --> 19:58.660 Now we're going to control this factor we need to control it with something. 19:58.670 --> 20:00.500 What shall we use to control it with. 20:00.500 --> 20:04.040 Well let's go ahead and add in a texture. 20:04.190 --> 20:08.140 So we're going to go down to texture and there are lots of different textures you can use. 20:08.270 --> 20:14.900 But after playing with it for a bit it's even noise or former Roy is going to be quite good. 20:14.900 --> 20:17.240 I'm going to use noise initially. 20:17.240 --> 20:23.090 Now I am going to have a quick look at my settings that I had before so we can speed things along as 20:23.090 --> 20:23.710 it were. 20:23.750 --> 20:32.120 But in this case I found a scale of 10 that works really well and I'm going to plug for the factor not 20:32.120 --> 20:35.670 the colour but the factor itself into the factor up here. 20:35.690 --> 20:40.500 What we should end up with and we do now run out of zoom over on this window on the right hand side 20:40.500 --> 20:43.180 so I'm going to go to the view and view selected. 20:43.190 --> 20:47.660 If you've got a number pad and you run out of zoom by are using your scroll wheel and doesn't seem to 20:47.660 --> 20:48.810 be doing anything. 20:48.830 --> 20:49.590 No pad. 20:49.700 --> 20:50.300 Full stop. 20:50.300 --> 20:51.110 There you go. 20:51.470 --> 20:55.760 There in we zoom in here we can see that we've got blotchy patches here. 20:55.820 --> 20:56.780 That's pretty good. 20:56.800 --> 20:58.010 That's a good start. 20:58.280 --> 21:02.980 However what I feel is kind of happening here is we're not really getting. 21:03.730 --> 21:06.250 A great deal of one or the other. 21:06.250 --> 21:13.150 And eventually we do want it to migrate over to being completely rusty and we can't do that by just 21:13.150 --> 21:14.140 plugging it in like this. 21:14.140 --> 21:16.270 So we're going to need something in between. 21:16.270 --> 21:19.090 This is entirely up to you how you do this. 21:19.090 --> 21:20.970 I'm going to use a colour ramp. 21:21.250 --> 21:24.300 Now I've also got because I've got no Wrangler turned on. 21:24.340 --> 21:29.620 I've also got the ability to hold down control and shift and click on any of these nodes to see what 21:29.620 --> 21:31.270 it looks like at any point. 21:31.420 --> 21:36.100 Now the first control shift then left click is going to select the top outputs. 21:36.100 --> 21:39.870 In this case the colour and then if I click again it alternate to the factor. 21:40.150 --> 21:45.880 And because it's the factor that we use here we can see on our model now how it's being applied now 21:45.880 --> 21:50.610 because there's no true white or there might be on there or there may even be a true black on there. 21:50.650 --> 21:57.040 But because it's not completely polarized to black and white we don't actually have ourselves any means 21:57.040 --> 22:00.540 of seeing the full rust colour or the full paint colour. 22:00.550 --> 22:04.470 So what we can do here is go ahead and add in a colour ramp. 22:04.480 --> 22:06.580 That's one way of which we can control this. 22:06.640 --> 22:12.640 We can also control it with a with brightness and contrast node that would also work. 22:12.670 --> 22:16.750 But in this case I'm going to use a colour a can have a little bit more control over it and I'm going 22:16.750 --> 22:23.040 to go shift in a kind of a search for my colour ramp and there it is colour ramp. 22:23.040 --> 22:27.520 So go ahead and you can see if you drop the node over it will connect in place. 22:27.520 --> 22:31.650 Now what I can do is I can go to my mics again to see what it's looking like. 22:31.660 --> 22:34.380 This is a raw version before it's all rendered up. 22:34.660 --> 22:40.180 But I can adjust where the black point is essentially making everything painted or I can just wear the 22:40.180 --> 22:40.600 white. 22:40.600 --> 22:46.400 Point is essentially making everything rusty so that we can actually animate that if we want to. 22:46.400 --> 22:48.590 So that would be one way of making it. 22:48.650 --> 22:54.580 The rust the year or certainly start making sure we start with full paint and then work our way to being 22:54.580 --> 22:55.430 rusty. 22:55.540 --> 22:56.380 The other way. 22:56.620 --> 22:59.160 So there's lots of options we can do in terms of animating that. 22:59.170 --> 23:02.070 But let's get the basic things set up first. 23:02.170 --> 23:08.820 So that is all of the basic material set up there and let's go ahead here. 23:09.040 --> 23:12.510 Just bring that down a little bit more and bring this one up. 23:12.700 --> 23:18.900 So we see we get a much bigger contrast between where rust spots are and where paint is going to be. 23:19.000 --> 23:25.690 If I then go to my principal shader and shift control click VAT's we can see that we end up with well 23:26.080 --> 23:32.140 we've not got anything affecting its roughness yet so it's still shiny where it's orange. 23:32.290 --> 23:36.670 How can we do that well because the paint is linked to this colour ramp. 23:36.670 --> 23:41.980 Let's try and use that so let's come out from the colour here and plug that into the roughness. 23:42.980 --> 23:50.930 Now hopefully what this will now do is where it is shiny but it's still got paint on it will be shiny 23:50.930 --> 23:53.510 and where it is not i.e. this orange. 23:53.510 --> 24:00.020 It will be quite rough and I think we can see that if I turn that off by moving it out and let's find 24:00.020 --> 24:07.120 somewhere that is in fact shiny on oh there we go over here on the end we can see that it is shiny and 24:07.130 --> 24:12.590 it this highlights if I angle this right should go across both. 24:12.620 --> 24:13.040 There we go. 24:13.050 --> 24:14.980 We got it on the orange. 24:15.770 --> 24:17.980 That's exactly what I want to demonstrate this. 24:18.110 --> 24:23.600 Now if I go ahead and plug in the colour into the roughness we should find. 24:23.600 --> 24:24.250 There we go. 24:24.260 --> 24:29.240 It is shiny where it's red and where it was orange. 24:29.240 --> 24:32.030 It's no longer shiny so rough in those places. 24:32.030 --> 24:32.770 Excellent. 24:32.960 --> 24:36.320 So we can see how we can start to build up quite a dynamic texture. 24:36.320 --> 24:40.970 By doing it this way a quite dynamic surfaces where this is completely procedural. 24:40.970 --> 24:45.550 At the moment we're not using a fixed texture to generate any of this. 24:45.620 --> 24:46.290 So there we go. 24:46.310 --> 24:51.920 Now controlled both where it's rough and where it's smooth and where the colour changes as well. 24:51.920 --> 24:54.850 Fortunately they're over the same things. 24:54.860 --> 25:02.120 The next thing we need to do is test out how we want this to look when it starts to get really rusty 25:02.530 --> 25:08.090 and the other thing I want to do as well was then here is start to control how these noise textures 25:08.150 --> 25:12.190 are placed now because we got the node Wrangler add on turned on. 25:12.290 --> 25:18.260 What I can do at this point is select that and go control in T and that will add in a mapping and a 25:18.260 --> 25:20.090 texture call warden node. 25:20.150 --> 25:25.310 It may even add in an image as well which we can delete so control and say Here we go. 25:25.310 --> 25:28.780 It's added in a mapping and a texture coordinate. 25:28.790 --> 25:34.970 The reason why I've added these in is to give us a bit more control over our model and its textures 25:35.300 --> 25:43.010 and also be explicit about how we want this texture this noise texture applied to that model because 25:43.010 --> 25:47.070 we could go about and apply it in such certainly in different ways. 25:47.090 --> 25:52.250 Now we're doing generated coordinates here so blender is handling all of that for us and that's probably 25:52.250 --> 25:55.340 a good thing with the way that we've constructed our Rusty pipe. 25:55.430 --> 25:57.740 It doesn't really have any mesh data at the moment. 25:57.740 --> 26:01.210 It's purely generated from those individual edges. 26:01.210 --> 26:04.110 We drew at the very beginning Okay. 26:04.310 --> 26:05.450 So we've got that coming through. 26:05.450 --> 26:08.770 Now one of the things I do want to change is the scale on here. 26:08.780 --> 26:12.560 This gives us an extra layer of tweaking I quite like how it looks. 26:12.710 --> 26:21.710 But what happens if we say set this to 10 10 and 10 how we get a much more bity a rusty pattern so we 26:21.710 --> 26:25.710 can go back and we can change it on one particular direction if we want. 26:25.820 --> 26:28.440 But in general I'd recommend matching these up. 26:28.470 --> 26:33.230 So I'm trying to pick something that looks in between it being totally Rusty. 26:33.320 --> 26:39.000 However the where it actually starts flaking off and we can add in other control points as well. 26:39.020 --> 26:40.210 If we want to. 26:40.730 --> 26:44.620 So we have here something that looks pretty good so far. 26:44.620 --> 26:51.120 In terms of everything that we've got but now we need to control how this is going about its hole or 26:51.150 --> 26:54.990 disintegration and it's actually displacement. 26:55.040 --> 27:00.350 There are a couple of things that we can do first and that's just to make sure that the experimental 27:00.350 --> 27:04.880 features that we've turned on are actually going to work now in order to do that we're going to have 27:04.880 --> 27:06.180 to turn them on. 27:06.200 --> 27:12.830 Now that is under the material properties itself and click on material unger's Scroll down a little 27:12.830 --> 27:16.170 so as we come down here there's an option for displacement. 27:16.190 --> 27:19.240 That's fine we believe as it is under the settings. 27:19.340 --> 27:24.140 If you scroll down a little further we've got an option of displacement at the moment just as bump. 27:24.230 --> 27:25.540 We don't want bump. 27:25.760 --> 27:27.360 We want both. 27:27.440 --> 27:31.720 We can do true but both really accentuates it so we're going to use both. 27:32.000 --> 27:37.610 Now you won't notice anything change at the moment because nothing is plugged into the displacement 27:37.910 --> 27:38.960 material output. 27:38.960 --> 27:44.950 I'm going to lower this down ever so slightly and I'm going to plug in our colour ramp that we had earlier 27:44.960 --> 27:48.270 so let's go ahead and plug in that colour ramp into the displacement. 27:49.020 --> 27:51.780 Now all that's actually updated. 27:51.780 --> 27:53.000 Occasionally it won't. 27:53.010 --> 27:56.410 Do we go ahead and go shift Z. 27:57.100 --> 27:58.770 And then shift Z again. 27:58.830 --> 27:59.750 There we go. 27:59.830 --> 28:02.070 You will have to do that occasionally. 28:02.130 --> 28:04.830 It's worked first time this time and really impressed with that. 28:04.850 --> 28:10.290 But occasionally you'll make a change and it won't be reflected over in the viewport and TV turned rendering 28:10.350 --> 28:11.830 off and back on again. 28:12.000 --> 28:13.910 Now to keep this rendering nice and quick. 28:13.920 --> 28:19.800 I'm going to go to my render settings scroll down and go to sampling. 28:19.810 --> 28:25.050 Now I'm not I don't really care and it of it looking that pretty somewhere turned the preview down to 28:25.050 --> 28:26.080 maybe 5. 28:26.070 --> 28:27.770 I'm not going to leave it at one. 28:27.770 --> 28:28.600 It would be ridiculous. 28:28.620 --> 28:34.470 But if it's five I know it's going to get to a decent place quite quickly and we can see there that 28:34.560 --> 28:36.050 that that's pretty cool. 28:36.120 --> 28:41.610 But it's a bit on the strong side so we're going to have to add in probably another colour ramp or something 28:41.610 --> 28:44.460 else just to control how that's behaving. 28:44.460 --> 28:48.170 We certainly don't want it looking quite like that towards the end. 28:48.180 --> 28:52.370 We need to control that displacement insane in in some form or another. 28:52.620 --> 28:57.660 And on top of that the displacement itself is not going to be totally smooth it's going to have a bit 28:57.660 --> 29:04.270 more of a bump to it as it starts sort of bubbling away and we can add that in in a few moments as well. 29:04.410 --> 29:09.990 If I'm going to start by building that up as we go so we've got a noise texture here I'm going to grab 29:09.990 --> 29:15.030 that and duplicate it and I'm going to grab our colour ramp and also duplicate that. 29:15.060 --> 29:20.160 Now we need to control how this is looking at but I want something else there as well. 29:20.160 --> 29:22.150 I need to mix two things together. 29:22.270 --> 29:28.320 So when I go ahead and add in a mix RG be note and plump that in the middle and that means I can start 29:28.380 --> 29:29.930 adding in something else. 29:29.970 --> 29:35.820 Now I need something after that to control how it comes across. 29:35.820 --> 29:41.340 So then I can spread this out a little further and make it a little less bumpy in this case. 29:41.340 --> 29:46.410 Now I'm going to go control shift and click on this to see what it looks like and I was going to go 29:46.410 --> 29:48.680 shift Z in the viewport and out again. 29:48.840 --> 29:50.400 So not really changed how that looks. 29:50.400 --> 29:55.040 For the moment if I bring that down so it's not fully affected and come back again. 29:55.260 --> 29:59.730 There we go this time it's much smoother and where it's rusty it's gone in. 29:59.730 --> 30:04.960 By the looks of it let's go back to my final material output and to see how that's looking. 30:05.150 --> 30:06.830 Okay that's the wrong way round. 30:06.960 --> 30:13.290 Okay so we've got it rust still on the surface and then inside it's red. 30:13.290 --> 30:14.730 So there are a couple of things that we could do here. 30:14.760 --> 30:19.550 We can switch round these two colours at the top but since that's all set up and that could be quite 30:19.550 --> 30:24.850 a complex material set up we're now dealing with how it's displacing we can come down to the colour 30:24.850 --> 30:26.230 ramp and just switch those around. 30:26.230 --> 30:30.940 We're going to flip the colour ramp so now where it's rusty envelops. 30:31.050 --> 30:36.360 Starting to look better already now where it's Rusty is where it's going to be going in rather than 30:36.360 --> 30:37.160 the other way round. 30:37.170 --> 30:41.560 And we can see here after turning that on and off again that's working. 30:41.580 --> 30:44.780 However you can see where it is Rusty in places. 30:44.850 --> 30:50.640 It is quite deep still sahaba I need to bring this black value up slightly. 30:50.850 --> 30:54.570 Come back shift Z shift Z and see how it's looking. 30:54.570 --> 30:58.710 This is something you're going to have to go backwards and forwards with so that look that looks good 30:58.710 --> 31:01.780 in terms of where the drop off is with V. 31:01.830 --> 31:08.070 Well with the red and orange border by I think I need to elongate this now so we've got a bit more of 31:08.070 --> 31:10.890 a gradient between the two is too sharp. 31:11.250 --> 31:13.760 Yes that's starting to look pretty good now. 31:13.770 --> 31:17.110 In this particular case I think we need to do a few other things. 31:17.160 --> 31:21.330 I'm going to add in some extra noise we got some noise down here. 31:21.330 --> 31:28.530 I'm going to use the factor into colour to a shift click just to see what it looks like and I'm going 31:28.530 --> 31:30.620 to turn this off and on again. 31:32.190 --> 31:36.570 Now were talking about the factor signee Togo controls shift and click once more. 31:36.570 --> 31:39.770 Once we've done that I can go ahead and adjust the scale now. 31:39.780 --> 31:45.240 In this case I want a really bumpy surface is going to be really high on the scale even though maybe 31:45.240 --> 31:46.010 even more than that. 31:46.020 --> 31:50.940 There's got 220 has done to look good detail. 31:50.970 --> 31:54.760 Interesting how do we do the detail in this case. 31:54.810 --> 31:58.450 Let's go to the mics and see what that's looking like when it's mixed together. 31:59.310 --> 31:59.870 Interest. 31:59.880 --> 32:01.860 Of course we've got a factor here. 32:01.860 --> 32:08.460 So what we want to control that factor is where is rusty and where isn't rusty so we want this to also 32:08.460 --> 32:10.290 be controlled. 32:10.350 --> 32:17.850 Fancy that by the same thing that's controlling how the paint where it is and isn't rusty so we can 32:17.850 --> 32:20.510 use the colour out of here's also the factor. 32:20.750 --> 32:27.330 So where it is Rusty is and you can see this here where is Rusty it's whiter and wear or white or close 32:27.330 --> 32:32.450 to white and where it's not rusty it's still black and if we go and render that. 32:34.840 --> 32:38.380 We can see we've got there a much better surface. 32:38.380 --> 32:44.110 So it's not going to have any of our new noise texture unless it goes all the way down. 32:44.140 --> 32:49.390 Now that's still a bit strong there we need to start bringing those two things together and I don't 32:49.390 --> 32:52.710 think the colour ramp is actually going to be suitable for doing this. 32:52.750 --> 32:56.090 Let's just bring the black point up slightly and re render. 32:56.260 --> 33:03.120 Yes I think at this point we can see here this is what's going on I need this almost grey in places. 33:03.130 --> 33:08.020 Let's see what it's doing now because this is effectively control and the displacement of the displacements 33:08.020 --> 33:09.760 quite strong at the moment. 33:09.760 --> 33:14.070 So I may need to add in yet another colour just to weaken that out. 33:14.170 --> 33:16.700 Let's rerun that and see what happens. 33:16.900 --> 33:18.680 Ah that looks a bit better. 33:18.700 --> 33:23.910 That squash this up even more it needs to be really subtle at this point. 33:23.910 --> 33:27.730 And let's come back and you can see there's a lot of iteration that you can go through. 33:28.480 --> 33:29.990 Tennis starting to look there. 33:30.030 --> 33:35.800 Let's bring this back down ever so slightly and re render and start getting used to doing this coming 33:35.800 --> 33:39.320 in shift said shift said okay that's looking fine for the moment. 33:39.430 --> 33:46.060 Now at this point in time as you're bringing in all of this together I would also save my work and look 33:46.060 --> 33:52.630 at doing a full render what were seeing in the viewport at the moment is a rough approximation of a 33:52.630 --> 33:53.560 render. 33:53.710 --> 33:56.610 So in order to do I know change my view to the camera. 33:56.760 --> 34:02.510 So a view will get the menu right in the moment view camera nump had zero if you've got a number pad 34:02.980 --> 34:04.690 and that's what it looks like from the camera view. 34:04.690 --> 34:10.570 I'm going to move the camera now by going shift and F to go into first person mode and just move this 34:10.580 --> 34:11.500 closer. 34:12.550 --> 34:17.180 Now you may find it's easier to do this when you're not in rendered mode. 34:17.950 --> 34:19.910 I'm I'm almost happy with that. 34:19.910 --> 34:28.280 I'm going to shift it down a little now use W H S and D to move around Q and E to go up and down and 34:28.280 --> 34:28.950 there we go. 34:28.970 --> 34:33.140 I'm happy with that lay out and I'm going to press F twelth to do a rendering. 34:34.260 --> 34:37.800 I'm also I also got the opportunity to save it as well. 34:37.800 --> 34:43.500 Now at this point in time you will see that with everything we've got going it may take a while to render 34:43.500 --> 34:44.160 around. 34:44.280 --> 34:51.930 Now these cells themselves that are rendering look too small for me for GP rendering and one to let 34:51.930 --> 34:57.810 it render out at the moment but I'm also going to in my render properties come down go to my performance 34:57.810 --> 35:04.560 area and change it yes these tiles are pretty much set up at 64 by 64 which is not really good for anything. 35:04.560 --> 35:09.930 It's kind of a halfway house if you're rendering with your s.p. you you want those quite low maybe eight 35:09.930 --> 35:17.550 and eight or 16 then 16 depending on the sea Pip and the fur rendering on a GP you probably want a higher 35:17.550 --> 35:19.860 value like two five six. 35:19.860 --> 35:24.780 Now I'm not going to worry about the actual rendering here but let's just have a look at how it's coming 35:24.780 --> 35:29.910 along we can zoom in and I quite like how that's looking at the moment. 35:30.330 --> 35:37.310 Now we probably do want it to go totally rusty at some point but that's not a big issue for the moment. 35:37.320 --> 35:40.850 We can always tweak these things later on when it comes to animating. 35:41.160 --> 35:45.780 Okay so the next thing to do is actually talking about the displacement itself. 35:45.780 --> 35:50.510 Now this is where we don't use the nodes Unfortunately there's no direct link between the two. 35:50.510 --> 35:56.070 But if we go back in to while I am going to go into the nerida again but this time I'm going to open 35:56.070 --> 36:03.190 up the 3D viewport as my main area and then we can focus on working there. 36:03.500 --> 36:10.820 K so we've got our 3D view port open and this time we're going to have to change how this thing is looking. 36:10.830 --> 36:14.460 But this time using a displacement modifier. 36:14.460 --> 36:19.760 So to go ahead and add in another modifying and to call it displacement. 36:19.770 --> 36:25.650 And again this is a modify this is deforming our mesh screen he defined it here it is displace. 36:25.650 --> 36:29.970 So this is going to add an extra level of bloatedness. 36:29.990 --> 36:32.190 But the looks of things that's pretty cool. 36:32.220 --> 36:36.820 And the reason why it's doing this is it's it that it's all in the wrong order with displacing it. 36:36.870 --> 36:43.200 After we've done everything else now we think logically the modifiers themselves do apply themselves 36:43.200 --> 36:45.860 in order so we start with the mirror modifier. 36:46.080 --> 36:50.970 And let me just hide the node editor and bring this across so we start with the mirror modify which 36:50.970 --> 36:51.830 is fine. 36:51.900 --> 36:59.710 Then we skin everything that we mirrored and then we want displace before we do the subsurface modifier. 37:00.000 --> 37:01.880 So let's bring that up now. 37:01.890 --> 37:06.770 It still will be a bit bloated for the moment because we're not controlling the displacement with anything. 37:06.810 --> 37:13.560 So if we open this up we really want some think to control the displacement rather than just doing what 37:13.560 --> 37:14.850 it wants to do. 37:14.880 --> 37:20.830 So in this case I'm going to go to my text settings and just click on the which add in the texture. 37:20.850 --> 37:22.980 Well hey that's gone all funny. 37:23.280 --> 37:31.770 What we can now do is nain that texture where or something along those lines as in it's wearing away 37:32.160 --> 37:35.960 and then go to the textured tab so long the properties panel. 37:35.970 --> 37:41.250 If we go to the texture properties we will see that it says noise texture which is all very well but 37:41.250 --> 37:42.880 that's not the one we want. 37:42.920 --> 37:48.770 We click on where it says noise texture we need to find the one that's under the modifiers is not at 37:48.780 --> 37:50.540 justing a material texture. 37:50.550 --> 37:54.450 We're not adjusting a brush texture we're adjusting the modifier texture. 37:54.450 --> 37:55.300 Here we go. 37:55.320 --> 37:57.600 So currently there's not anything applied to this. 37:57.600 --> 38:00.050 It's just got a black image applied to it. 38:00.230 --> 38:05.940 I'm going to scroll down and where it is the type of texture image or movie I'm going to change that 38:06.180 --> 38:12.270 to an actual generated texture and I'm going to use noise in this case naver starting to look a bit 38:12.270 --> 38:12.930 funky. 38:12.930 --> 38:18.310 And we can start playing around with the settings in here to make it look just that little bit better. 38:18.330 --> 38:25.710 So in my case I'm going to go and reach for the settings that I had previously when it came to my displacement 38:26.160 --> 38:28.640 and I'm having a look at what I got set there before. 38:28.650 --> 38:32.590 Oh no before I did not choose noise I chose wood. 38:34.370 --> 38:38.250 And obviously this is through a lot of iterations and playing around. 38:38.270 --> 38:42.810 I chose wood as my example that looks like it's melted into a blob. 38:42.950 --> 38:43.940 This is fantastic. 38:43.950 --> 38:48.050 And this is what I mean at the very beginning when I was saying about playing with stuff. 38:48.050 --> 38:53.580 I did not realize quite how well some of this would turn out until I. 38:53.660 --> 38:56.930 Well I went to would obviously I would not have thought about that before. 38:57.050 --> 39:02.810 And looking at my settings down here I've left this top area as fine I've come down and I've changed 39:02.810 --> 39:04.520 this to a saw pattern. 39:04.760 --> 39:06.670 So it's more yes and no. 39:06.680 --> 39:14.060 Rather than nice and smooth changes which I think's much better if we have a look here we get a straight 39:14.090 --> 39:18.340 transition between the black and the whites which is fine that Gibbs. 39:18.590 --> 39:21.460 In this case a very sharp cut off between the two. 39:21.470 --> 39:27.610 I changed it to band noise if we have a scroll back up we can see that it's a little bit more we believe 39:27.610 --> 39:32.810 wobbly at this point and there are a few other things that I've gone through and I've changed so if 39:32.810 --> 39:39.290 we scroll back down again the final things that I have changed here is the type of noise I've switched 39:39.350 --> 39:45.400 from soft to hard which gives it a much harder edge between the two. 39:45.440 --> 39:50.440 Now as you can see here this doesn't look like anything like what we would want it to look at the moment. 39:50.570 --> 39:55.820 This is just a starting place what we now need to do is go back to our displacement modify and make 39:55.820 --> 39:58.970 sure we've got the right level of displacement applied. 39:59.210 --> 40:05.570 And what I have done as we've gone through is this strength about you ought to set it to zero and see 40:05.570 --> 40:06.910 what it looks like. 40:06.920 --> 40:11.390 There you go it looks like that and as we increase this to one it's going to morph into this. 40:11.390 --> 40:13.400 Is that what we want. 40:13.400 --> 40:14.870 Probably not. 40:14.880 --> 40:18.830 It looks like we're going to have to play around a little more now the texture coordinates. 40:18.830 --> 40:20.800 I'm going to use the object itself. 40:20.900 --> 40:28.270 That means that the object determines how is that almost the same as using generated previously. 40:28.400 --> 40:33.700 So the object is going to determine how this texture is applied to itself. 40:33.710 --> 40:38.400 So once again um goods come in and go in and out. 40:38.720 --> 40:41.950 No change there that's changed the middle level up to one. 40:42.200 --> 40:43.150 There we go. 40:43.520 --> 40:48.990 That's the sort of rusting away effect that I'd probably want to go for here. 40:49.280 --> 40:51.680 And now let's change the strength back to zero. 40:51.680 --> 40:54.440 So it's nothing and then we can do a step up. 40:54.440 --> 41:00.500 Now we don't need to see these deep find a detailed rust here some bigger shift Z and just have a look 41:00.500 --> 41:04.990 at the underlying mesh and how it's distorting so we can see it's wasting away here. 41:05.070 --> 41:09.980 And by the time we get to a point six you can see it's actually pushing it through itself so we don't 41:09.980 --> 41:11.470 need to go that far. 41:11.630 --> 41:17.360 In this case we're going to use the strength and probably end up going to maybe this level here point 41:17.360 --> 41:18.680 five. 41:18.680 --> 41:24.650 Let's think about now animating that so we've got a start and an end point for a lot of our of our items 41:24.650 --> 41:25.970 here this is going to be the end point. 41:25.970 --> 41:28.280 This is going to be the start point. 41:28.310 --> 41:30.980 We might as well have a mate between those two points. 41:30.980 --> 41:36.350 Now I'm going to do this simply on the time line and of course all of this can be refined and refined 41:36.350 --> 41:37.210 and refined. 41:37.220 --> 41:42.530 In fact the one you saw at the very beginning did take several hours of tweaking. 41:42.560 --> 41:46.850 Admittedly I was having a lot of fun at the time and it takes several hours tweaking to really get it 41:46.850 --> 41:48.910 exactly how I wanted it to. 41:48.950 --> 41:51.430 And of course trying to recreate that. 41:51.550 --> 41:54.690 Well it will just be a different rusty pipe this time. 41:54.980 --> 41:57.130 So let's pick our. 41:57.380 --> 41:59.800 I've got two timelines here now that's good going. 41:59.810 --> 42:01.070 So let's pick our start point. 42:01.070 --> 42:08.120 In this case frame 1 and I'm going to key in the strength for the zero and I'm going to just hover over 42:08.120 --> 42:11.170 strength and press the key that is now keyed in. 42:11.180 --> 42:14.370 This is the great thing you can annamay anything in blender. 42:15.110 --> 42:20.330 And then finally we need to decide how many frames this is going to last over I'm going to go to a hundred 42:20.340 --> 42:26.640 and twenty in total so I'm going to go to frame 120 and then key in the final frame. 42:26.700 --> 42:29.370 The strength here is going to be at one note. 42:29.390 --> 42:30.260 No what did we say. 42:30.260 --> 42:38.510 Point five is key in point five and press the Iki and now what we can see is as we start and play through 42:38.510 --> 42:40.420 we can see it's wasting away. 42:41.410 --> 42:42.880 How cool is that. 42:43.490 --> 42:45.250 And now we can do the same thing. 42:45.260 --> 42:52.100 But in the Knode Ed. Now this is where I'm going to have to be careful and have the beginning and end 42:52.400 --> 42:53.380 in mind. 42:53.570 --> 42:57.140 So the beginning I don't want it looking rusty in the beginning at all. 42:57.140 --> 43:01.600 So we need to find the right node settings that it looks like it clean. 43:01.940 --> 43:05.960 Well just read essentially something go to my node editor. 43:06.200 --> 43:12.380 And at this point I think the only thing that's controlling this is the factor between these two. 43:12.380 --> 43:19.550 So in this case we need to decide how we're branching out these two here how we're changing between 43:19.550 --> 43:20.430 these two cultures. 43:20.570 --> 43:26.420 So going to be changing something here and there are several ways we can go ahead and do this we could 43:26.510 --> 43:30.860 we could animate the position of these items here so we could push. 43:30.920 --> 43:33.470 I think it's the black all the way through. 43:34.800 --> 43:36.250 How does this need to look. 43:37.210 --> 43:39.130 Oh that's oh I like that. 43:40.320 --> 43:42.110 So yes we can move these things about. 43:42.180 --> 43:47.340 So at the moment it looks like we need 100 percent black in order for it to work as we would expect 43:47.340 --> 43:48.190 it to. 43:48.510 --> 43:50.640 And that's come out and back in again. 43:50.820 --> 43:55.290 And we still got a little bit displacement coming in here that we don't want So we need to think about 43:55.530 --> 43:58.660 think about more than one thing at this point in time. 43:58.710 --> 44:04.350 So when you think about this one and this one down here so let's make sure that there is no defamation 44:04.410 --> 44:06.860 at all and it's totally smooth. 44:06.880 --> 44:10.840 It looks totally smooth but it looks like we've got these in the wrong way. 44:10.890 --> 44:16.220 Looks like I need it to be 100 percent black in this case. 44:16.330 --> 44:21.360 Almost there let's just say for arguments sake and there we go we've got that so I'm going to set that 44:21.360 --> 44:23.140 position of a key that in. 44:23.870 --> 44:27.960 Whilst I'm on frame one make sure you are in frame when we decide to keep things. 44:28.130 --> 44:34.460 So I've keyed in the position of both of those elements now as this changes as it gets rusty towards 44:34.460 --> 44:35.660 the end. 44:36.790 --> 44:38.680 And looks horrible like this. 44:38.680 --> 44:43.880 What we can then do is say well we also want it looking really rusty. 44:44.810 --> 44:51.920 So we've moved two things here we've moved the position of zero and the position of one now it is important 44:51.950 --> 44:57.590 that you keep in the starting position of both of the things you're about to change. 44:57.590 --> 45:03.500 So we've keyed in the position of number one this black marker but we've not keyed in the position of 45:03.500 --> 45:03.890 zero. 45:03.890 --> 45:06.920 So let's make sure we keep that in as well. 45:06.920 --> 45:12.380 Now we can go ahead to the end of our animation's say well by the end of the animation it's going to 45:12.380 --> 45:16.450 be completely rusty so both of these will have moved across. 45:16.670 --> 45:20.660 And of course this is controlling more than just. 45:21.730 --> 45:28.270 The colour is changing how rough things are and it's feeding in to how the actual material itself is 45:28.270 --> 45:30.570 getting rusty and it's defamation. 45:31.420 --> 45:37.060 So there we go we've shifted that across women a key that in so I think both one and two are keyed in. 45:37.090 --> 45:37.610 There we go. 45:37.610 --> 45:40.020 One two is zero and one in this case. 45:40.040 --> 45:44.890 The next thing we need to do is think about this next colour ramp down here so we have it starting position 45:46.120 --> 45:47.540 of number zero. 45:47.620 --> 45:49.930 Let's go to one and key that in. 45:49.930 --> 45:53.590 Let's go to the end and then we think about how we want that to look. 45:53.590 --> 45:57.270 So if we go ahead and all that say shift this down to there. 45:57.280 --> 45:58.790 What do we have. 45:58.840 --> 46:00.590 It looks pretty rusty. 46:00.650 --> 46:04.430 Let's shift all having issues clicking it all. 46:04.570 --> 46:05.410 I think that's the key. 46:05.410 --> 46:06.580 Pretty good. 46:06.580 --> 46:10.360 Let's just go shift and Z over in the 3D viewport. 46:10.390 --> 46:10.970 There we go. 46:10.990 --> 46:12.090 See how that change. 46:12.100 --> 46:15.530 That's why it's important to come over and shift click. 46:18.620 --> 46:22.410 A new shift in Z to get it working so we need it more this way. 46:24.540 --> 46:25.860 That's quite bumpy. 46:25.860 --> 46:31.020 In fact we could we could probably leave it like that but let's just see if we can get it looking that 46:31.020 --> 46:31.980 little bit better. 46:31.980 --> 46:34.560 It looks quite spiky at the moment. 46:34.590 --> 46:37.190 Now this is a great way of just testing us. 46:37.190 --> 46:40.120 I'm going to go and save my work first. 46:40.170 --> 46:42.050 Now I'm going to render it out again. 46:42.420 --> 46:46.380 I wouldn't recommend over being a bit overzealous when it comes to rendering. 46:46.380 --> 46:51.720 But what we do need to make sure is anything that we think is going to happen actually happens when 46:51.720 --> 46:52.830 we go ahead and render. 46:52.860 --> 46:54.750 So something is not happening here. 46:54.750 --> 46:59.030 Why is this still totally smooth yet in the viewport. 46:59.070 --> 47:03.960 It looks or bumpy like this are problem. 47:04.050 --> 47:05.050 To be honest I don't know. 47:05.040 --> 47:10.500 I've probably missed something as we've gone along so we've got a displacement of both over the material 47:10.500 --> 47:13.410 settings of that that feels fine there. 47:13.440 --> 47:17.220 It could be the fact that we've not keyed that in yet. 47:17.220 --> 47:21.960 So let's go in and go to the node editor and key in that position. 47:23.630 --> 47:27.740 That is a bit extreme and they both at one they do look like they're both one. 47:27.990 --> 47:32.560 Let's just keep that in because I think that probably is what's going on there. 47:32.690 --> 47:38.330 And it's just round of that out again we can see is much quicker to render in with. 47:38.630 --> 47:44.560 We see that's much quicker to render when we've got the GP rendering. 47:44.770 --> 47:45.920 Okay. 47:46.070 --> 47:49.490 So you've got material here if we got the right material I think we have. 47:49.520 --> 47:50.260 Yes. 47:50.490 --> 47:52.580 And the displacement isn't rendering. 47:52.580 --> 47:56.880 So in the render settings do we have experimental rendering turned on. 47:56.990 --> 47:58.480 We have excellent. 47:58.580 --> 48:05.120 Now I'm going to change this to see you for a moment just to see if there's an issue with how it's set 48:05.120 --> 48:05.450 up. 48:05.450 --> 48:07.880 I do love problem solving on a live video. 48:07.880 --> 48:09.410 It's always great. 48:09.920 --> 48:12.740 Let's just see what happens at this point. 48:12.800 --> 48:16.800 Now notice it's also changed over here as well in the viewport. 48:16.890 --> 48:23.540 So just come back and re-enable GP you there is something funny going on and we will get to the bottom 48:23.540 --> 48:24.180 of it. 48:27.060 --> 48:29.810 So has decided to render smoothly again. 48:29.830 --> 48:33.260 Let's go to our node editor and see what's going on here. 48:33.340 --> 48:35.630 So we've got everything set up here. 48:35.680 --> 48:38.410 We've got well let's see what it looks like. 48:40.890 --> 48:43.560 When we just look at this colour ramp here. 48:44.620 --> 48:46.650 Let's make sure we are in rended mode. 48:46.750 --> 48:51.830 So this colour appears all black and white which basically means no displacement. 48:51.850 --> 48:53.820 That's not what we want of this black. 48:53.820 --> 48:56.620 Value has been brought up far too far. 48:56.630 --> 48:58.560 Let's come back in and go through. 48:59.300 --> 49:03.680 That looks much better so we just moved that black value far too far. 49:03.680 --> 49:06.570 They're made sure on the end and key that in. 49:07.000 --> 49:12.410 And the annoying thing there was the viewport wasn't actually updating and showing us what the actual 49:12.440 --> 49:12.940 issue was. 49:12.950 --> 49:15.550 And that in itself is painful. 49:15.560 --> 49:16.910 It really is. 49:16.910 --> 49:22.100 So now hopefully when we go ahead and render what we should see we're still rendering with the s.p. 49:22.100 --> 49:23.940 who didn't want that to happen. 49:23.960 --> 49:30.430 Now when we go ahead and render all being well we should end up with it being bumpy which it is. 49:30.430 --> 49:31.370 That's great. 49:31.400 --> 49:36.690 And now we need to go back to our node Ed and just make sure everything is back in place. 49:36.740 --> 49:38.270 So I'm going to shift. 49:39.780 --> 49:44.470 Control shifts select my principal shader that looks fine there. 49:44.520 --> 49:45.660 Excellent. 49:45.660 --> 49:48.780 Finally we just need the test the beginning and end. 49:48.810 --> 49:50.270 And make sure they're working fine. 49:50.280 --> 49:52.080 So I'm going to save my work. 49:52.080 --> 49:57.600 I'm going to go and open up the UV image editor and I'm going to make sure that we're on slots one on 49:57.600 --> 49:59.610 the head a bar for the U.S. image editor. 49:59.610 --> 50:06.970 Make sure your in slot one and go ahead to the beginning of your scene and press F 12 to render it or 50:06.970 --> 50:09.640 even go to the menu here render image. 50:09.670 --> 50:12.440 This will give us some idea of what it looks like at the very beginning. 50:13.440 --> 50:18.110 Excellent so we've got how it's going to look at the beginning and that's lovely and shiny. 50:18.120 --> 50:22.860 Now the reason why we're doing it like this is simply because rendering an animation is going to take 50:22.920 --> 50:24.560 a long time to do. 50:24.600 --> 50:31.140 So I'm going to go to frain 60 here and I'll go to slot two and then I'm going to go render my image 50:31.380 --> 50:35.600 and this will give me an idea of what it's going to look like half way through. 50:35.730 --> 50:42.630 Now hopefully I have it does look a bit odd It looks a bit spiky So there may be more refinements though 50:43.260 --> 50:47.370 and but I'm happy with how it's turning out so far. 50:47.370 --> 50:51.750 Just as an experimentation if nothing else and again you can iterate this and go No no I don't want 50:51.750 --> 50:52.490 it to act like that. 50:52.490 --> 50:54.030 I wanted to act like this. 50:54.060 --> 50:56.000 So here we go it's starting to deform. 50:56.040 --> 51:01.020 They might want to leave the defamations till after it's gone completely rusty That's what I did in 51:01.020 --> 51:04.410 my original psyche in all of the defamation. 51:04.410 --> 51:06.490 How it was changing how that texture. 51:06.510 --> 51:12.750 The strength in the displacement modifier when we're animating this I did not change that until after 51:12.750 --> 51:14.930 it started going completely rusty. 51:14.970 --> 51:17.610 I might do that in a moment on this one as well. 51:17.610 --> 51:24.060 Finally I'm going to go to my final frame go to slot three and just render that out as well. 51:24.160 --> 51:29.710 And a good thing about doing this is you've got a good idea of it start middle and end position. 51:29.730 --> 51:37.020 Now you may in fact want to just use a different texture when it comes to showing blender how you want 51:37.020 --> 51:38.290 it to deform. 51:38.310 --> 51:42.260 Now this is a totally different look as before it looks like something is growing on it. 51:42.300 --> 51:47.500 Tempted to change that to go green as if it's some sort of alien fungus or just fungus. 51:47.550 --> 51:48.230 Who knows. 51:48.240 --> 51:50.970 Anyway so that looks pretty good. 51:50.970 --> 51:54.180 That looks like a good starting and end position. 51:54.180 --> 52:00.510 Now one of the things that I would really recommend when you're working with this type of project where 52:00.510 --> 52:07.350 you know that rendering is going to take at least 30 seconds of frain 120 frames you know that's a long 52:07.350 --> 52:08.650 time to wait. 52:08.740 --> 52:10.920 Well that's going to be there's going to be an hour isn't it. 52:10.920 --> 52:16.620 So I want to wait for an hour but I do want to have an idea of how this is going to animate through. 52:16.620 --> 52:22.770 Now I can switch between slot 1 slot 2 and slot three go. 52:23.000 --> 52:24.200 Okay that looks pretty cool. 52:24.210 --> 52:26.660 But how does it look when it's animated. 52:26.670 --> 52:29.010 So the final thing here is about outputting. 52:29.040 --> 52:34.440 Now there are seven schools several schools of thought when it comes to animating output in general 52:34.530 --> 52:38.240 as I'm just producing something really quick to have a look at. 52:38.370 --> 52:45.330 I will go to my render propertys and scroll down and my output folder I'm going to set that is something 52:45.460 --> 52:52.220 I can actually reach like the desk top and then I'm going to change the height file type to it. 52:52.260 --> 52:59.010 F F MPEG video going down to the encoding I'm going to set it so it's presets here I'm going to use 52:59.070 --> 53:02.050 eight to 6 4 in MP 4. 53:02.080 --> 53:03.280 She's absolutely fine. 53:03.430 --> 53:07.280 Leave everything else as default because this is just a test run. 53:07.410 --> 53:13.080 I don't really care if it's blocky or not as perfect as it could be or even in this case if it's going 53:13.080 --> 53:17.290 to crash midway through the render because I can always click and render again. 53:17.310 --> 53:22.560 However what I will do at this point is just have a look at the resolution I want. 53:22.560 --> 53:29.090 A rough idea of how this is going to look not a detailed look a detailed look I've done with these renders 53:29.100 --> 53:34.740 if I'm happy with this bit if I'm happy with the others then I'm happy and good to go but what I don't 53:34.740 --> 53:35.580 want is to wait. 53:35.610 --> 53:39.250 Even so I'm going to knock this down to 25 percent of 10 8. 53:39.270 --> 53:45.030 Now this is going to look really ropey in terms of a quality perspective but it's good to be quicker 53:45.060 --> 53:45.850 to render. 53:46.020 --> 53:46.970 So I'm going to go ahead now. 53:46.980 --> 53:53.460 I'm going to save my work before I go ahead and render what I need to do is render my animation. 53:53.460 --> 53:57.420 Now to make things just a little bit more interesting and do what I said earlier and am going to clear 53:57.420 --> 54:05.910 my key frames for the the actual displacement are going to start at frain 60 where it starts displacing 54:05.970 --> 54:10.680 and then go all the way to point five so it changes. 54:11.230 --> 54:16.660 A bit more naturally because that there shouldn't be deforming till it's quite rusty and I'm going to 54:16.660 --> 54:19.880 make sure I key in a strength of 0. 54:20.560 --> 54:22.000 At that point. 54:22.000 --> 54:27.150 And then we've also got strength of zero here so it's going to stay at zero until it comes out. 54:27.190 --> 54:32.170 That's easier than removing all the key frames and re adding them afterwards and it may show once again 54:32.170 --> 54:33.580 save my work. 54:33.580 --> 54:35.300 Now I'm not going to render it on this computer. 54:35.340 --> 54:41.290 It's going to take an E on I'm going to go renderer on my desktop which has a bit of a faster GP in 54:41.290 --> 54:41.620 it. 54:41.710 --> 54:44.200 And I'll be back in a few minutes. 54:45.700 --> 54:46.570 And here we go. 54:46.570 --> 54:49.720 I've slowed this down so we can really explore what's happening. 54:49.720 --> 54:55.030 It's not particularly high res but we've got a glossy start and then we can see it slowly rusts away 54:55.030 --> 54:55.420 now. 54:55.540 --> 55:00.580 We put in that key halfway through so it didn't start deforming until then and we could see it's just 55:00.580 --> 55:03.690 rusting away and bubbling and actually in many ways. 55:03.850 --> 55:06.170 I like this one because had a bit more thought to it. 55:06.340 --> 55:07.620 Then our original one. 55:07.620 --> 55:10.360 And of course here it is now at full speed. 55:10.360 --> 55:12.970 Boom done and there we go. 55:12.970 --> 55:15.480 Thank you for staying with me throughout this tour. 55:15.490 --> 55:17.580 I really hope you've learned lots now. 55:17.680 --> 55:22.330 Fortunately we can't always cover everything that we want to cover in a tutorial like this. 55:22.330 --> 55:28.050 This is essentially glossing over our material set up our modelling and everything else. 55:28.060 --> 55:33.670 If you do want to learn much more about Splenda Please do join me over on my udemy Course where you 55:33.670 --> 55:38.830 can learn far far more than what I can possibly put in a short tutorial like this. 55:38.830 --> 55:40.640 Take care and I will see you over there.
