▷ [Hiatus] Hey there! Sorry for the unexpected hiatus! I've been working behind the scenes on some projects, but I haven't made any updates on anything. —————————————————— ▷ [New Paint-like Shader!] I've been working on a new paint-like shader for the past few days. This is the work you see now! I wanted to go for a look that simulated the imperfections of paint, specifically, the paint strokes. with animation in mind each frame's paint strokes need to be different to sell the "paint by frame" look. Overall it looks way better and more painterly than the previous ver. 2! ▷ [So How 'bout a Tutorial?] I don't think I will release a tutorial in the same quality as the other. The nodes are way longer, and require a little bit more understanding. This doesn't mean I'll gatekeep the shader! I'll still be making a tutorial on how to recreate the look, albeit with a little less of what the previous tutorial on the paint-like shader is like. ▷ [Texture Support and Lighting?] Like version 2, the shader will support changing light colours and textures. I'll release another project with a texture preview right after this one. ▷ [So What Now?] While I may make small tweaks here and there to the shader, this is likely the last iteration of the paint-like shader I will make for a good while. It fits all my needs and looks exactly how I envisioned, so there's not much to do for now. Of course, I'll still be utilizing it, and for sure, you guys can improve and add upon it. —————————————————— ▷ [Credits and Other] #Shaders #Blender #Art #Original #Animation #Teaser Music sourced from Bensound.
