If the iris is not visible because cornea is not transparent, go to render properties, turn on screen space reflections and check refraction on, then go to material properties in settings turn on screen space reflections. This solved it for me, hope this helps.

Hey Jay. This is the best eye I've seen when looking around lately and I'm very intrigued by your setup which allows procedural changes to the eye colour and such. I must admit that this is slightly above my level currently but this is very exciting indeed. The fires of creativity has officially been lit and it is time to experiment :)

@zhulikkulik 2 года назад

Thanks for an awesome overview of your approach, I've learnt a lot of new information about anatomy and modelling ideas :) Idk why, but I feel like I have to say that you don't need to manually zero loc/rot/scale in blender. It's Alt+G/Alt+R/Alt+S if you didn't apply transformation. Also you can click&drag to select multiple fields like XYZ rot/pos/scale and put the same number in each one simultaneously. Just hurts me for some reason when I see people manually doing things that have shortcuts :D

@ankitsmith7308 2 года назад

You could also use adaptive subdivision, so when zooming into the eye, the mesh resolution increases automatically.

@z-beeblebrox 2 года назад

Just be careful with adaptive subdivision - I'd recommend putting dicing higher than 1, because you're gonna put your computer through its paces calculating a pixel perfect subd, and especially if you have more than one object using adaptive mode, you're gonna run out of VRAM fast if you don't really relax your dicing. This is different from the wait time on the render (tho it impacts that too) because Blender uses your ram allocation to calculate dicing and eats through it pretty fast. So even if you're prepared for a long render, you still probably don't want dicing at 1.

What's the point of doing a procedural eye that only can be used inside blender, or there are ways to bake all that colour, information in to textures?

@PotassioD 2 года назад

Can't thank you enough for how much I've learnt watching your tutorials! Amazing person and artist! One more thing tho, if I can steal a minute of your time, would be asking how you'd go about making the same procedural iris shader in Arnold/Maya. I'm trying with the facing ratio/curvature and aiUtility but can't seem to make it properly work. Thanks for your time!

@artofjhill 2 года назад

Same setup. You wouldn’t use facing ratio or utility. You just plug in a rgb ramp into the color for the iris and transmission for the cornea

Where do I get the eye from ?

@DisturbedMS26 2 года назад

Hi Jay. I noticed that you're using macOS to run Zbrush, Maya etc. I've been wanting to replace my desktop for a new M1 Macbook for my work which is mostly Zbrush, Maya, Painter, Photoshop etc. Since you're already using these software on macOS, just wanted to ask if its worth it and how good or bad is the performance as compared to a windows machine. Love your content

@artofjhill 2 года назад

Thanks. It’s still early for Apple silicone so software isn’t as optimized as it can be. Most things are comparable but an Nvidia RTX card does have big benefits in a lot of the softwares which is only available on windows. I love Mac OS though

@skatehansen 2 года назад

I've been using 3ds max for years now, but started learning blender last year. I love it so far, except the shadow issues on low-mid poly spheres and stuff. (u can see it in the eye too, lower left at 22.40, ) So, I'm always still rendering in max/arnold. There are some workarounds, so not that bad tho.

@Wenedi Год назад

Is the parallax effect achieved through the shape of the outer mesh itself? I wonder if it would work similarly in ue5 or if using the height map method would be the only way 🤔

@artofjhill Год назад

The light bending is because of the round cornea shape but in real-time rendering we use a graphics tech bisque called “parallax” that fakes that light bending. It really just fakes depth and creates an illusion that looks good enough for eyes

@umarcga7823 Год назад

Well, Eye ball Shape and Modeling matter a lot.... Well to begin with, 3D modeling is the first key step for realism, and hands down the most important of all the processes.... Eye ball are not sphere shape or even spherical (by sphere shape I mean perfect sphere and by spherical I mean roughly a shpere).. they are spheroid . making them right will make the eye movement realistic.. eye animation would be easy... though rigging would become hard.....

@mercurysmith563 Год назад

The concept of the iris being detached is a bit different to me, as you mention it is more commonly done as a ball in a ball. I'm trying to figure out which comes first, kind of a chicken or the egg dilema. Is the iris part sit inside the cornea/ball or, is it sitting on top of the ball? I know its me but the more I try to catch what it is doing the more it flips back and forth which comes first. I pulled up one of your base meshes I purchased to see if there was a clue there, then remembered it wasn't in that. I looked back at some of your tutorials but your old eye tutorial is the ball-in-a-ball method.

@artofjhill Год назад

The iris is inside. There is the usual ball but the cornea is made see through with a circular ramp texture. This allows the adjustment of that size which is how much iris you see

You mentioned this method isn't for real-time. Is it a matter of additional steps for real-time, or is the process entirely different?

Thanks in advance, love your work!

@artofjhill Год назад

it's very different how it works and how the materials and textures are made. Usually for real time you'd use a single mesh and do most in one shader that uses parallax mapping and a normal map to fake the look of depth and detail at all angles

Hey there. Offline rendering is a more accurate simulation so light is refracting and the mesh can have actual form detail and lots of polygons. In real-time you need to make things much faster so you’d use tricks like parallax and normal mapping instead. Can’t do light refracting and in real time yet
