I want to make velvet....

[SilverIce]

I want to make a velvet cloth texture, the kind a ring would be resting on, and I'm not sure how to make it appear that the cloth ripples, and stuff.

IF anyone knows....thanks so much!!!!

Sine wave plugin

You can find the link @ my google page if you don't wanna search.

Better yet, see if this will work for ya

[SilverIce]

That's totally perfect!!!! So to make that, should I use the sine wave plugin?

[Ash]

Yes, Sine waves + Waves after I tried it.

Let me know if it works out

Ash, I hate to be picky, but that looks more like Satin than Velvet (to me, anyways).

Maybe tone the white highlights a bit down?

No, no! Don't change a thing!

It looks absolutely beautiful.

[Ash]

But SilverIce wanted Velvet, not Satin.

Would "add noise (I=30, C=0)" help?

EDIT: There was already noise, but maybe not enough, so it look too smooth like satin?

[BoltBait]

OK, then, yeah, tone the shine WAY down and add some noise.

Velvet doesn't really reflect the light well. But, leave the shadows.

[MiguelPereira]

I would say a little noise with no sat and then motion blur like on the grass tut but not too wide the blur. just a little for the "fur" of the velvet

[SilverIce]

This is really great!

Thanks guys!

Ash, you'll probably see it on DA soon

[SilverIce]

Darn it....

I can't get the wrinkles defined.

Any tips, Ash?

Defined?

See, you have the smooth wrinkles (is that an oxymoron....??) on the 'cloth,' I just get a faint outline of a wrinkle and that's all.

I don't know how you are making the wrinkles.

I use

See if that helps.

Let me know.

Also check your Private messages, I have a little hint for your ring of fire :idea:

[Ash]

This might be even better

*in a way this is seamless*

Oh. My. Glockenspiel.

That's pretty pretty there, Ash.

[Ash]

:?: Glockenspiel? Instrument? :?:

I understand the pretty part

Thank you

Try to tile the image

[MadJik]

I've tried but I've got something different!

[snospmiS]

Oh. My. Glockenspiel.

LOL!

Glockenspiel? Instrument?

That's what we germans call a "Glockenspiel"

[Ash]

OK, I made the final version velvet

If you look at it closely, you will see this texture looks very real 8)

Curtains in a theater?

There is also another use for this texture...

A skirt part of the dress? Like Cinderella's dress?

I don't know
