A nostalgic Japanese Showa glass material created completely with nodes in Substance 3D Designer.

In my opinion Substance 3D Designer based material workflow, purely based on nodes offers far more fidelity and flexibility to that of scanning. Hand crafting details this way will make them pixel perfect, but also offer parameters to be added for later customization.

This Substance is also available to purchase in Booth.

Two years ago my Yoyogi Station Unreal demo became a kind of viral hit and was featured in 80.LV and other CG related media.
I agree with Japanese sentiment that past things reflect something human in us.

This is quite interesting timing as this week I will be presenting my company’s Substance 3D Designer workflows in CGWorld creative conference. Come and say hi if you are in Tokyo!
