In less than 5 minutes, you'll learn advanced detailing techniques that go beyond traditional photobashing to give your renders a polished, realistic finish using Photoshop. This is perfect for concept artists who want to maintain control over their work while adding depth and texture.
In this video, I’ll show you how to take a Blender render of a mountain and enhance it using photo details in Overlay mode for seamless texturing. But that’s just the start! You’ll also learn how to:
1. Use a grain layer to remove that "CG" feel and add realism.
2. Add photo details selectively without losing the integrity of your render.
3. Apply the Median Filter to smooth out overly sharp render details.
4. Use the Mixer Brush and Smudge Tool for natural blending and fine adjustments.
5. Add atmospheric effects using a Hard Light layer for color harmony.
6. Create a glowing effect with Gaussian Blur and Lighten mode for a cinematic finish.
