M4A3E8 "Easy Eight" Sherman Tank - "BOB"
Rendered in Arnold, doesn't look too different.
A complete retexture of an earlier work, this time using Substance. One pass to paint welding and normal details and another to texture and weather it. I used Marmoset for the render and baking the inputs. Quixel Mixer for the quick and dirty ground. I've been asked how I accomplished the wear and texture, it is driven by smart materials with a very liberal amount of hand painting the masks. The first detail paint had some fine texture detail on the hull that was then rebaked for enhanced curvature and ao inputs. With that fed back into Substance the details pop when textured correctly. The markings are fictional, but representative of the European theater in the spring after the Battle of the Bulge. Easy Eights were late war variants with an upgraded gun, suspension and engine.
