A cool way to add moss to a mess with texture painting. Click the link for the real-time version:    • Blender Moss Tutorial Redux | Real-Ti...  

As a disclaimer, this technique gave me trouble the first time I tried it and there are several steps within the process that were condensed for sake of time.
Additionally, 'influence' won't appear as an option until a texture is chosen in the Particles tab (particle system, Textures -- select a texture). Then it should appear. Apologies if that was a bit confusing in the video.

    This is a perfect splash of Ian Hubert in the editing and approach.
  • holy shit this is probably the best moss tutorial ever. i did lose you when the hair system started so maybe that will clear up with some rewatches

    Honestly, Lighting and post process could receive its own tutorial... Beside that gr8 tutorial, quick, to the point and favorite thing was the screenshot with red circled and underlined values in hair system. Lot of people making tutorials say change few things to make it look better but how beginner would know what to change and how much time it would take to actually change and test every single thing. Small detail but never seen that before.

    I just got started learning blender, and couldn't figure out how to use the factor of the mix node with texture paint. This helped a lot, thanks.
  • This is perfect for when I only need hair to be rendered on one side!
  • Thanks for the great walkthrough! How did you manage to get the forest floor so detailed (debris, leaves etc)? It looks amazing
  • fantastic tutorial...would you care to discuss your lighting and specifically that wonderful lens flare in the final render.
  • @N3pt3r10us
    Hi there! I'm not understanding what you did at minute 1:11 to connect the image texture node to the moss node. The tutorial is great so far, and I really like your style!

    Excusme, why u have 2 type UV ? When u create the UV MOSSMATTLE ? i still stuck cant texture paint after create texture propertise
  • @numan3d
    The final render looks great! What did you use as the light in the last render? and what kind of adjustments did you make as color grading?
  • hello, already thank you so much for your video which helped me a lot! I have a problem though, when I paint on my object, the color gets on it, but not the foam hair. Do you know how I could solve this? thanks in advance !
  • Thank you for the fantastic tutorial..... I have one issue, when I check the mark "Density" in influence then I cant pain on texture, can you please help
  • @Parth5d
    subbed the second i heard that voice
  • so ive heard of a lot of c4d users using that flare from video co-pilot but i guess for some reason i thought it was implemented directly in c4d rather than in post. would love to see some of that process if you are thinking about more content for your channel that would be a topic i would certainly tune in for.
