Procedural Weathering and Wear with Blender 2.9 - Blender Shader Node Tutorial
Get started with Geometry Nodes: https://www.canopy.games/p/bcs-geomet...
In this video we find out how to apply weathering and wear to models procedurally in Blender 2.9. It's actually a pretty simple thing to do, it just requires a bit of layering up to get the desired effect.
Slightly different pacing and structure with this one - somewhere between the previous tutorials and the livestreams. Let me know what you think of this style of tutorial!
