Hi Sok,

fiddling with your material3 plus light3, the left one using Gelshading, the middle is without shadows rendered while the right one has shadows. Turned down the noise amount on all of them, tho. Thanks alot for sharing. Lovely materials... Cheers tim

haha…Im luvin ur test render, is that a ear/spine/boob lol…good model for testing a skin tho, Im sure thats why u did it, I thought it was a phone in thumbnail

[Tim_Leydecker]

Hi,

it actually started as a phone. The Page 196 Practical Guide tutorial. Couldn´t get the *.obj replaces subD level1 trrick* to work, initially. Asked here, aurick answered. Responsive ZBrush Hotline 24/7 here... That had me drift off a bit, yes. It´s boob and spine and *else*. Will probably try fibers and Projectionmaster for an even more lifelike appearance. As soon as I´m sure I won´t get banned for being obscene. Which is not intended. It´s meant to be a study. []

ALRIGHT HERES MINE…BEAUTIFUL MATERIAL MAN!!! No changes at all, seemed to work very very well compared to some other people. I think the way you have that material set up works well with rough skin.

i’m new to zbrush. what do you do after you download this?

[jlester2000]

Yes, I am also new to loading and using materials and lights, and I would also greatly appreciate info on loading the mats and lights to the proper place in order to have them to use.

Thanks.

[jlester2000]

No one ever responds to my questions. This happens to me a lot on here. I guess I’m just unlucky.

[pixelsoul]

Well its pretty obvious… but you have a menu entry called material and one called light… then you press the load button and see the magic appear

[jlester2000]

Well, it turned out to be pretty simple…and I did figure it out.
Anyway,…thanks for the response.

This is my first ZBrushing ever, and while I never thought he’d look right with human skin, goddamn this here’s pretty damn nice! Thanks, great job.

The skin shader does work well and to an extent the material baker is pretty good. However, how do I get the displacements (the texture not color) of the skin saved out as part of the displacement map so my model will actually feel like skin? This is mainly where I’m stuck right now and I need some help with this.

Thanks,

Brian

These materials look very nice, but I got something completely different, in preview there is some yellowish specularity, and final render doesn’t look anything like those images I saw in this tread. I’ve used material and light settings no.3).

…would be really grateful for some help, I’m really stuck with these skin shaders… I’ve tried some other materials and got some weird results (neon green skin even if base/diffuse color is brown - Sebastian Legran skin shader for instance, ).

Thanks.

The materials and light files probably apply to zbrush 2, judging by the dates on the posts…You probably have to do something different with the later versions of zbrush. I recommend looking up KrakenCMT’s shader it has a pretty good results that also lets you adjust the light set up a bit. Good luck!

why this material not working for zbrush 3.5 r3 ?

Thanks

[Stefanos_Petras]

Thank you so much for this material! It worked great! Here is dr. Zoidberg from futurama. It’s a WIP, not finished yet.
