Metal Finishing Ramp Multiplier

[Max M]

Hi,

I am trying to recreate a pattern for metal finishings. Its called Cote de Geneve, used in watch making.
In theory I assume to use the Ramp-Mul-Mod, but practically I am not sure how to implement the Bump and connect the multiplication.

Help would be great,
Thanks

Hi Max M.,

Here are two ideas, one via texture and one via Ramp (I used the Duplicate for the Ramp, right mouse click, duplicate Nodes)

I hope one or the other fit to your project.

All the best

Hi Dr. Sassi,

thanks for the very quick reply it looks very promising from the pictures.
Unfortunately the file in the link is not containing the media I see in the picture.

Is it possible to see just a pictures of the node tree?

Thanks,
Max

So sorry, Max M.,

Yes, the link is for another project; it was stuck in my memory, but no excuse: my mistake not to check it.

Perfect, thanks for the reply, Max M., you're very welcome.

I'm sure you will find some areas to benefit from your adjustments.

Have a great day as well, thank you! (… here, I will call it soon a day it goes close to midnight.)

My best wishes for your project!
