HOW DO I MASTER MATERIALS IN KEYSHOT?

One of the best things about KeyShot is its ability to create and render realistic materials. When paired with beautiful lighting, product visualisations take on a whole new level of believability. When it comes to materials, KeyShot isn’t quite as advanced as some other rendering packages, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t still able to create some killer materials.

KeyShot offers over 850 premade realworld materials, all of which can be easily adjusted to suit your needs. I usually like to pick a material off the shelf as a starting point and then make small changes as required along the way.

The addition of the KeyShot Cloud library opens up an incredible wealth of materials that can be directly added into your scene. The beauty of this library is that it’s constantly being added to, so you can rest assured that, over time, KeyShot is becoming increasingly well supplied with a wider range of materials.
