Esben's Tutorials (+ Rust, color animation and bead blasted aluminum)

[Esben Oxholm]

Thank you guys!

I honestly hadn't used a texture on weight 1 and weight 2 before.

Ha, me neither
I normally layer different materials and use the map in the opacity channel to get this effect, but using a map on the bump weight might be handy in some situations.

There's always something elegant and attractive about efficiency.

Word! 

A new one!
How to create a crisp cast shadow using the HDRI editor in KeyShot. Enjoy

Nice tutorial, Esben The Surface Backside Mask node is one of my absolute favorites; I use it quite often. So many cool things that can be done with it!

Great tutorial Esben as always
why we can see a poodle in your video ? 

[DriesV]

Because it is snowing in Denmark?
Just a guess...
Or maybe it is subliminal messaging to get us to buy cute snowy dogs.

Cool tutorial btw!

Haha, thank you all.

The dog (the actual one on the picture - yes, it is snowing these days in Denmark) was barking in the background and I thought it might as well get a few frames of fame. Maybe it's harder to hear than I thought?

Great tutorial, Esben. I love that clock animation. I've checked some of your more organic and character type stuff on Instagram, and it's clear that you have a great animation sense. I'd be willing to bet you've studied Lasseter's "12 Principles" and probably have a copy of Disney's "The Illusion of Life" in your library 

Cheers,

Thanks a lot, Eric.
You hit the jackpot! At least half of it. I have viewed a lot of videos on youtube on the 12 principles. Good stuff to know about when it comes to animation

Haven't checked out 'the illusion of life. Probably should.
