A new version of Indominus was released by Truong recently, and with the last raffle winner requesting some paw stuff from her, I decided to get the updated version ready to go for Redshift. Even with existing textures, converting textures from one rendering engine (Mental Ray) to another (Redshift) can be a tedious task. This is about 5 hours compressed into 15 seconds. I also think I'll be offering these kind of "speedpaint" styled videos for my patrons in the future. What do you guys think?

WIP Vid 01

Showing the process of creating a material for a character. In this case, Indominus. Model and Textures are by Truong. They're pretty talented. Materials created by me. For those who aren't familiar with 3D, when converting materials from one rendering engine (Mental Ray) to another (Redshift) it's not exactly cut and paste. This is about 5 hours of tinkering around compressed into about 15 seconds. What you don't see are adjustments to textures in photoshop and creating new textures to blend with old ones, as well as some other things. Enjoy!
