Imperfections Make the Perfect Addition to Maxon Capsules

Maxon continues to add value to its Maxon One and Cinema 4D subscriptions with 4K premium textures that bring realism to surfaces

Friedrichsdorf, Germany - June 16, 2022 - As part of the company’s continuing effort to add value to its subscription offerings, Maxon is pleased to announce the addition of 50+ 4K premium tiled textures to the Maxon Capsules collection, designed to bring photorealism to artists’ renderings by adding minor flaws to the surfaces of 3D objects. The greyscale maps feature a mix of scratches, dust specs, smudges, fingerprints, hairs, residue, isolated fingerprints, all scanned from real surfaces and meticulously tiled.  The Surface Imperfections Volume 1 texture library was created by David Gruwier and has been licensed by Maxon for immediate royalty-free use by all Cinema 4D and Maxon One subscribers.

For years surface imperfections or grunge maps have been the secret sauce of top professionals. By subtly layering in surface imperfections like dust, scratches, fingerprints and smudges - artists can take their renders from good to great. Building textures like this takes expensive equipment, specialized techniques, and the time and patience to make them seamlessly tileable. Maxon is thrilled to make this commercial library available free to all Cinema 4D users without the hassles of project-by-project licensing.

 Availability

The Surface Imperfections collection of textures is available immediately and can be found in the Cinema 4D Asset Browser in the Textures/Imperfections category or by searching for “si-v1.”
