Texturing and Look

Development
What is Texturing?
Texturing is the process of enhancing the visual
appeal of 3D models by applying images or
textures. It involves mapping textures onto
surfaces to simulate realistic materials, colors,
and details.
Why Texturing Matters?
Realism: Texturing adds realism by simulating
surface details like color, roughness, and
reflections.

Visual Appeal: Enhances the overall visual


experience of a 3D scene.

Storytelling: Conveys information about the


environment, adding depth to the scene.
MEDIUMS FOR TEXTURING
Photoshop:

Drawbacks:

2D Limitation: Primary focus on 2D, making


3D painting less intuitive.

UV Mapping Challenges: Requires


understanding of UV mapping.

Substance Painter:

Advantages:

Real-Time Preview: Provides a real-time


preview of textures on the 3D model.

Smart Materials: Library of smart materials


for efficient texture creation.
IMPORTANCE OF UV MAPPING

Avoiding Texture Distortion: Ensures textures


are applied without distortion.

Optimizing Texture Space: Efficiently uses


texture space for better quality.
SHADERS
Shaders are specialized programs used in 3D
graphics to control the rendering process. They
determine how light interacts with surfaces,
influencing the visual appearance of objects
within a scene.

MATERIALS:
Materials define the physical properties of
surfaces in a 3D scene. This includes
characteristics such as color, reflectivity,
transparency, and how surfaces react to light.
Choosing or creating appropriate materials is
fundamental to achieving the desired look in a
3D project.
TEXTURES:

Textures are 2D images applied to the surfaces


of 3D models. They provide detailed
information that enhances realism, simulating
surface patterns, colors, and variations.

MAPS:

Texture maps, often referred to as maps, serve


specific purposes in the rendering process.
Understanding and utilizing different maps
enhance the visual quality of 3D models.
Diffuse Map: Contains the color
information of the surface.
Normal Map: Encodes surface details for
realistic lighting effects.
Specular Map: Determines the shininess or
reflectivity of the surface.
SUBSTANCE PAINTER:
USER INTERFACE AND
WORKFLOW:
Layers: Substance Painter uses a layer-based
approach for applying and blending textures.

Viewport: Real-time 3D viewport for


previewing and adjusting textures.

Brushes: Various brushes for painting different


types of textures.
EXPORT SETTINGS:
File Formats: Choose based on platform and
requirements (e.g., PNG, JPEG).

Resolution: Set based on project needs.

Channels: Specify necessary channels (color,


normal, specular) for export.
LOOK DEVELOPMENT IN
3D:

Elements of Look Development:

Shading and Lighting: Define surface


responses to light, considering mood.

Materials and Textures: Specify physical


properties and apply detailed textures.

Color Grading: Adjust color tones for


atmosphere and mood.

Rendering: Generate the final 2D image or


animation.

Post-Processing: Apply effects like depth of


field and motion blur.
Tools for Look Development:

Renderer: Choice influences the final look (e.g.,


Arnold, V-Ray).

Shader Editors: Tools for creating and fine-


tuning shaders.

Texture Painting Software: e.g., Substance


Painter for detailed textures.

Color Grading Software: e.g., DaVinci Resolve,


Adobe After Effects for post-processing.
