procedural fruit shader

[Sofi Tau]

hi, Im exploring redshift shader nodes, I was looking for a texture that can make sort of ¨spots¨ mapped in a circular way. I tryied with distorted node but couldn't find a way.

for example, if I wanna recreate the greener parts of inside this kiwi.. how should I do it?

so far I've got this.. but I want to insert drops in each tile of the radial tile texture.

thanks!!

Hi Sofi Tau,

Spots in a circular way. Would that help to get closer?

Perhaps explore the Tile Shader> U Scale, for less stretched and more round shapes.

The UV Project Node, U Angle to adjust the amount.

My best wishes for your project.

@Dr-Sassi excelent! Uv protection! thaks a lot Dr Sassi, do you know where I can find this tipe of knowledge in cineversity, maxon tutorials or any particular course??

I adjunt a picture of how is my kiwi going so far!

Hi Sofi Tau,

Thank you so much. I didn't know that before you asked. I explored a few options and shared them.

I know your target is shader exploration and not texturing with images, correct?

Not to my knowledge, but what I could suggest would be this two-part show

I hope it shows some ways, even though I think the central part in these two shows was perception training, which you obviously do not need

I have done this for both timestamps, so it is perhaps easier to search if something interests you. I hope you enjoy it as brainstorming.

Cheers

If you have other questions

P.S.: I couldn't resist.

Just a little bit Noise (Ramp). No idea if that fits to your target.
