Hi
I am working on a project with a product made of 100% recycled plastic. The process is rotational molding, using 3 mm granulate/chips of plastic in all different colours. For my client I`d like to apply the visual/apperance quality of this plastic to the renderings. My input is a .jpg of the surface of the material (a random pattern/mix of different colours from the molding process). I have tried the decal/mapping function, but the output is not good enough.
So - I have the following questions:
1) Can anyone guide me in making a material from a .jpg (if possible)
2) If not possible from a .jpg - how can I generate a new material and from what source?
3) Is there a wizard out there who can help me creating a random coloured pattern like the attached pic?
Hope someone can help out or give some clues. I´d be ever greatful! 🙂
Stay safe!
