Looks good, Bobson and Chris! You can also use (diffuse) colour ramps for this, may be a bit easier :) Ooh, nice one. Looks good, Bobson and Chris!

Needs some extra work, but it's a good start. <a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v107/bobson-uk-/monkey.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v107/bobson-uk-/monkey.jpg</a> Bobson Another great tutorial, I did have problems not having the Minnaert shader, but the suggestion of the blend texture from ChrisB, worked great.

The end result you have is quite nice. For that *real* sparkly look that some metallic paints have, users might have some success adding a plain noise texture to the material and setting it as well to "Add" for its blend mode. Odds are you'd have to turn down the Col slider to be sure it didn't overwhelm things but it should work nicely. Great vid! Well done as always Matt. The end result you have is quite nice.

Jiri: Yes I wish your key status program was available on more than Linux :) Mikej: Time is something in short supply these days, unfortunately! Thanks guys!

I didn't knew anything about this contest, but have been eager to do a car. Indeed the idea behind the paint shading is really nice. Adding a nice HDRI to it would make it look awesome. Nice Tut.
