Session
Substrate Fundamentals for Automotive Visualization: Building Car Paint
In this guided hands-on session, you will learn the fundamentals of Substrate by building one of the most demanding materials in automotive visualization: a multi-layer Candy Red Metallic car paint inspired by the deep, crystalline reds of Japan's leading automakers.
Designed for users who are already familiar with Unreal Engine's traditional Material system, the session concentrates on the areas that work differently in Substrate, particularly layered material construction.
Through step-by-step demonstrations, you will see how each layer is built and how they combine into a finished paint. You will leave with a clear understanding of Substrate's core concepts and workflows, and how to apply them to your own materials.
