Consider how you are going to make your project…
-
Individual blend files? All in one?
I’m going with all in one, and that’s going to help keep the materials together so I can alter them and modify them easier. I would likely go seperate if i was working on a bunch of difficult items (complex objects/lighting). -
Where am I storing them?
Similar answer here, keeping them in the main file and I would likely store them on seperate files if it was a complicated project.
3. Why did I decide to do it this way?
Playing with light in my last several projects, I was thinking a neon set would be cool - but I have been watching Dune and my mindset has been pretty… 80’s lately? The board is very Tron, but almost Tron: Legacy. I thought it would be cool if the pieces also had a glow and lit up the tiles below it with their color. The light will be a yellow and the dark will be a purple. I’m excited.
This material was the combination of a circuit png and running it through an Emission node.
