Rusty Steel Shader

anthony cortez · June 26th, 2008

Hi all,

I'm looking for a rusty metal procedural shader that's similar to the Simbiont Dark Tree shader. Anyone using it for mental ray?

you could do a procedural with mental ray. Just create a mix material and use a mix map to designate where the rust occurs. The rust itself is pretty straight forward to create in max, i would imagine.

hope that helps

I realise this is Vray, but it might give you a good starting point?

At least some good maps to apply to the shader.
