Redshift in Production - Lesson 7 - Snow shader
A free lesson from Redshift in Production course release by Proteus VFX School.
In this lesson we'll see how to create a completely procedural snow shader using Redshift in 3ds max. We'll take a look at various topics like sub-surface scattering, nested procedural displacement, reflection/refraction, materials blending, etc. etc.
This lesson is released for free, you can find more informations about the course at https://www.proteusvfxschool.com/reds...
