New Plastic covers a quick tip for getting super-realistic snow using Octane and Cinema 4D.

Check out this new tutorial from New Plastic that shows how to make a procedurally-based snow material using Maxon Cinema 4D and Octane Render. “Whether you want to build a snowman or a simple snowball, this is the detailed and fully procedural snow material for you — It’s simple, and it’s beautiful.”

Procedural Frozen Pack.

New Plastic’s latest materials pack is a frozen one. There are 25 fully procedural frozen materials (no image textures), including some neat-looking slushy ones and snow & ice.

The materials are procedural, so you can use them on any model and are infinitely tileable with infinite resolution. Check out the Procedural Frozen Pack here.
