Maya 8.5 also offers new shaders that streamline the creation of common architectural and design elements. One of most powerful is Maya’s multi-purpose architectural/design shaders, mia_material. An overview is provided of the shader’s parameters, such as BRDF (Bidirectional reflectance distribution function) and its material presets (wood, ceramic, frosted glass, brushed metal, satinate metal, matte plastic, copper, glazed ceramic, rubber, leather, etc.) – including sample rendered images. Finally, you’ll learn how ambient occlusion can enhance the final results of your rendered image. Download this and more other free mental ray shaders from this page.
