Faceted Polygonal Look

[Wooshum]

I was looking for a good way to achieve a faceted polygonal shader similar to some of the recent stuff done in C4D:

I hoping to achieve this within the shader itself: currently the only way I am getting a similar effect is via the Facet SOP (by fragmenting the mesh - using Mantra Surface Material) see below:

Any help is much appreciated.

Just connect Ng instead of N whenever applicable in Vops. Sometimes it's easier to overwrite N in displacement shader (pluging Ng into N output), so that the whole surface shader sees facetednormals without manual rewiring.

hth,

skk.

btw. The way of faceting polygons in SOPs is to use VertexSOP->Cusp Normals. It just creates a vertex normal attribute without unwelding your geometry.

Thanks for that SYmek! Worked a treat!
