Hi guys,

I'm working on marketing one of our products Temp site here www.toolfolks.com/tw

I am playing around with animation / character ideas.
I tried using a leather jpeg to replace the skin ( so he looks like he is made out of  leather) but it didn't look realistic at all.
I replaced the Skin Diffuse and played around with all the 3 million settings but failed miserably.

Any ideas /

Cheers

Steve Warby

Just adding a Diffuse will not give the expected result that you are looking for. You need to also add maps for the Bump/Normal, Specular and Blend - at the least.

One thing that you could try is to add the Leather Material found in the Materials Lib folder to both the head and body and then start making adjustments to see if it works for you.

The 3 center CC avatars have the RL Leather materials, which Gerry has already explained, can be found in your default materials.
The two end avatars have a substance material applied.

I can`t be sure, but I think I got those from this pack Rampa made available.
