MartyAlright, here's a new batch. 😎Moved some of the material shader stuff into the Geometry Nodes setup so the cookies have more interesting shapes and are less reliant on bump maps for larger details.Also added a layer of fine detail to the bump maps and adjusted the texture to be less busy overall.The only downside is that the face count has gone up ~3.5x to accommodate the extra geometry. 🙃<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/blender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#blender</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/blender3d" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#blender3d</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/b3d" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#b3d</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/render" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#render</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/cycles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cycles</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/procedural" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#procedural</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/geometrynodes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#geometrynodes</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/cookies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cookies</a>

SamuelGaea is cool and everything, but what about fluvial erosion in <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Blender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Blender</a> with <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/GeometryNodes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GeometryNodes</a>? The concept rather simple: - spawn points somewhere - calculate a movement vector with ( N x (0,0,-1) ) x N, where N is the normal vector, sampled from the mesh surface (its a double cross product) - update the points in a simulation zone - accumulate the point proximity in a per-face attribute for the mesh. This requires a high res mesh - optionally displace the mesh<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/B3D" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#B3D</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Geology</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Simulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Simulation</a>

Dudley Storey"Summer on a Stick, No. 2: Candy Apple" In Calgary, summer is associated with Stampede and the fairground. As we start to warm up, I wanted to create a series of quick fair food renders in Blender, a series I call “Summer on a Stick”. This is the second one, a candy apple. I found the candy apple shader particularly hard to get right; in the end, I used a combination of approaches I've previously used for car and oil paint, although I'm still less than perfectly pleased with the result. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fediart?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fediart</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/mastoart?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mastoart</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/artistsonmastodon?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#artistsonmastodon</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/b3d?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#b3d</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/blender?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#blender</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Blender3D?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Blender3D</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/geometrynodes?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#geometrynodes</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/candy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#candy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/blendercycles?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#blendercycles</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fairground?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fairground</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/cyclesrender?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cyclesrender</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/blendercommunity?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#blendercommunity</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/geonodes?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#geonodes</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/3dartwork?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#3dartwork</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/3dart?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#3dart</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/digitalart?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#digitalart</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fair?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fair</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fairground?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fairground</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/summer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#summer</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/food?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#food</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/candy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#candy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sweet?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sweet</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/illustration?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#illustration</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/digitalillustration?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#digitalillustration</a>
