Hi,
i'm working on a (very expensive!!) glass stair design:



I'm doing tests on crystal-white glass (i hope don't have any big noise problems...i hope...) and anisotropic steel, like this (photo):



I didn't find a material like this in mxm gallery website but i remember to have seen tons of renderings with this material in the forum...
I would like to spent more time doing beautiful renderings of this stair instead of waste it trying to get that anisotropic steel material on my own if someone already did it.

Thank you

I saw this, not anisotropic...

OK!! Thanks a lot for this link!!

Now, in Studio, i have to see if i can apply this material to all the objects togheter or if i have to apply it one by one to get the anisotropic effect like in the previous photo...

you should be able to do it at all objects together, but this depends on the UV projectors for these objects I think.

This material is anisotropic, but it can't be used as your example. To get this effect, you should used a map with circular scratchs.

Thanks hyltom, i have to spend my weekend doing some tests.
I hope to post some images soon.



Meanwhile other tricks are very welcomed...
