Hi,
The basic car paint can be achieved by fresnel water shader with colour bitmap. (left picture)
Setting up the metallic finish is a bit more complicated. You have to use a car model with body built with two layers as it's not possible to apply multi layer materials in Artlantis. (right picture)
Base layer:
- Bespoke shader with noise map on reflection - metallic finish.
Top layer.
- Fresnel water.
Cheers

Hi Sjaak,
I own The Artlantis Attidue as well, it is a great book.
You are right, it is possible to achieve many sophisticated materials with one layer. However, it is IMPOSSIBLE TO CREATE METALLIC PAINT USING ONE LAYER ONLY because of it's complexity, which Dwight also said in his book.
Cheers,
btw. The left image of mine has been also created using one layer only :)

Asree, I will do providing that I find the file.
The setting is really simple though. What you need to do is to set up the water transparency to black, make it flat and adjust the fresnel reflection. You will get a car paint in every colour as long as it is black :))
If you would like to add a colour you need to apply a bitmap and play with ambient colour and transparency.
Cheers,

Ronald,
I would advise you to get the Book from the Author not from retailer as I did, to be 100% sure where the money goes.
You can place the order sending a email to Dwight: dwight_atkinson@telus.net.
You will then receive briliant bonus materials listed below.
— several .atl models with associated catalog items gathered together in folders.
— postcards of book examples with associated images as textures.
— a model used for the page 46 alignment exercise. Have fun.
— two model files for the sequence example — start and end of process
— a Quicktime movie demonstrating sequencing techniques, based in the sequence models.
Cheers

I have found the file.
To me is rather helping you make money :)
This thread is about the car paint not about great deals. Isn't it ?
Honestly, I was considering to get the book from you but eventually got it from Dwain. IMHO supporting Author is priceless and same or even better quality "free gifts" are availble from 3d warehouse for free.
Cheers,

Cześć Maciej, jestem początkujący w artlantisie ale staram się zwracać uwagę na najmniejsze szczegóły, niestety nie do końca rozumiem w jaki sposób uzyskać taki efekt jak na załączonym przez ciebie renderze. Udało mi się zrobić fresnel water i narzuciłem na to czerwony jpg. Natomiast efekt chyba jeszcze nie jest odpowiedni, zauważyłem też, że czasem przy nałożeniu tekstury nie pokrywa ona całości obiektu, wiem ze można ja rozciągnąć ale psuje to efekt, czy jest jakieś rozwiązanie? Gdybyś mógł zdradzić jak robisz swoją teksturę z tymi małymi blinkami, lub chociaż naprowadzić na dobra drogę, to byłbym bardzo wdzięczny, jak coś robię wizualki tylko dla własnej zabawy wiec nie wykorzystam tego nigdzie komercyjnie. Pozdrawiam serdecznie! Karol Chada/Wrocław
