She’s finally here! This Psylocke set is inspired by her look in Marvel Rivals — complete with her katana and a glowing pink chest effect thanks to the emission map 🌸

🗡️ Katana included as accessory 💡 Emission map = glowing chest detail 💥 Ready for your superhero Sims world!

Starting off simple and with only adjusting the Albedo (Colour), how reflective an item is (Metallic Slider) and how much micro detail an object has (Smoothness Slider) our 1st task was to make gold, silver, bronze and copper.

Taking what we learnt from here and building on previous knowledge of texture making the next challenge was making stone, with the addition of a normal and a height map. Which enable the materials shader to add some extra roughness and height to a surface without adding any extra to the polygon count of a mesh by adjusting the way light interacts and bounces off of a surface

Emission maps were next, these tell the shader not to include the area in light calculations, instead, the area will act as if it is a source of light.
