Main Supplement Rope Modeling (579K) Unusual Twists by Cecilia Ziemer Supplement to 3D Artist issue #41, page 28 article [_Top_|_Rope Modeling (579K)_|_Texture_|_Links_] Brass Texture Tip

This is the tree for the simple Carrara brass shader used for the Bleuharterhorn. Since it has a fairly low reflectivity and a lightish color in the color channel, it doesn't turn black in the Assemble window. Top Shader: Multichannel Color Color RGB 0.69 - 0.57 - 0.34 Highlight Color RGB 0.99 - 0.87 - 0.45 Shininess Value 6% Reflection Color RGB 0.43 - 0.36 - 0.20 Bump, Transparency, and Refraction channels all have a value set to 0. Glow is the default black. Even though it's not a perfect mirror, it still needs something to reflect.
