Description
While working on "Mechanical", I discovered how good the basic noise texture looked, and it reminded me of a process called case hardening, to create harder alloys.Related content

I love that node.

The handle was supposed to look like plastic. I wanted a kind of army-style cheap machete. I could have turned down the bump node a litle and applied less gloss to make it look like wood, but I didn't really want that...
Also, I love the bump node. The background is basically just a noise texture and a bump. I guess you knew that, why am I telling you that?

Oops, did I say handle? *Looks at original comment* Oh, I did.Β In my defense: I hadn't had my caffeine yet. Anyhow, the blade looks like ceramic is what I meant to say.

Oh, yes, that does, too. I am still a little kid when it comes to blender, so all qritique is welcome. Thank you for the link!Β
Also, PS isn't bad at all. It's just that I like Gimp more...

I never said Photoshop was bad, it's a good piece of software. I just don't like it.

i didn't know the light refraction was caused by hardening, i though it's to make it stainless

Well, for stainless steel, discoloration wouldn't make much sense.

how is the process made anyway? using heat and chimicals? on the coloration is just because of the thermal process?

Case hardening means encasing softer metals with hard metals for more strenght. You can read more about it here:Β en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Case_harβ¦
