    Stunning architectural renders, Veronika!

    Beautiful characters, Andrew.  

     

    My only current contribution is to make sure that NPR-render-engine newbies are aware that the mesh density of objects in an NPR scene affects the render.  Here, I inserted a simple vertex cube and duplicated it.  The mushy-looking cube is just one polygon per face.  The sharper looking cube has a higher mesh density because I subdivided mid-edge to center several times.  The NPR settings include the default brush for diffuse, shadow, etc., but no outline.  I did reduce randomness and minimum brush size.  The UV maps and the shaders for the cubes are the same.

    Thank you, Dart! I ment uploading custom brushes to Carrara for NPR, not to forum thread.

    blush Sorry blush

    I thought I once knew how to import my own custom brushes into the 3D Paint system... but I no longer remember how blush

    you need to save an image the exact size as the others and edit one of the accompanying files to go with it in notepad and also add it in the main file that lists them

    Thank you Andrew! I like your Pinocchio (aka Buratino). I attached one Buratino example. How do you upload your custom brushes?

    Veronika,

    you can copy your cbr or png image brushes to the folder Carrara/Presets/PaintBrushes/yourfolderchoice

    here's some more info that may help you  wink

    we both looked for links

    I had done it just examining the wizard and other files in notepad though and it worked
