In this riveting demonstration by Stephane, the Technical Artist extraordinaire at Adobe Substance 3D, we are introduced to the groundbreaking Stylization Filter within Substance 3D Painter. This filter is no ordinary tool; it has the power to metamorphose mundane, realistic models into captivating, stylized assets that will leave you in awe. With an array of customizable presets at your disposal, the possibilities are endless. Stephane takes us on a journey through the filter's functionalities, from adjusting brush strokes and smoothing effects to adding color variations and gradients with surgical precision.
As we delve deeper into the Stylization Filter, Stephane reveals the intricacies of controlling brush strokes and their effects on the model's surface. The attention to detail is staggering, with options to fine-tune color variations, metallic effects, and even normal mapping. The Smoothness menu offers a glimpse into the world of stylized smoothing, allowing for a range of effects from flat to smooth like an acrylic painting. And let's not forget the Colorize menu, where uniform colors can be blended onto the base color, creating a visual feast for the eyes.
The exploration continues with the Gradient menu, where gradients can be seamlessly integrated into the model with precision control over opacity, blending modes, and contrast. The addition of lighting reflections through the Baked Lighting parameter adds a touch of realism to the stylized assets, elevating them to a whole new level. And for those seeking to intensify details and contours, the Edges and Cavities menu offers a plethora of options to sharpen colors, surfaces, and contours. With each setting meticulously explained and demonstrated, Stephane leaves no stone unturned in showcasing the full potential of the Stylization Filter in Substance 3D Painter.
