Patina vs Anodized Multicolored
Firstly, great job original creators!

I really admire the convincing engravements and I'm quite surprised Patina style was used. Doed Patina style utilise exponent override on the alpha channel like Anodized Multicolored? Or is it simply an RGB image without any specific alpha changes and it turned out looking that great naturally?

Cheers.

I think he first made the drawing. Next covered the drawing with metal texture (probably use the default ak's one), or he asctually used only shadows to make the engraved effect, while the drawing is invisible so you can see the metal texture through it. These are the 2 ways i know you can make this effect. Anyway, the effect is really cool especially when combined with quality drawing. Well done

One or two steps are missing, but close enough ;)
Thanks for the appreciation anyway ! <3

Ok, but can you explain us how you did, because I can't do anything with the patina style :x I don't understand how to get that metal "shinning" effect with some matt part :o

Just mess around with exponent and phong intensity value(try 80, 255 and the effect should be easily visible). Oh, and you have to set shader setting to Very High.
