Hello all,

I'm still fairly new to Octane, and the main reason I purchased it was to perform daily work and produce stills and abstract stuff. Very much the hobbyist. I really enjoy looking at some of the work of individuals such as Hoodass and Beeple and puzzling out what they are doing.

For the most part I can do it, however in the attached is an example of one of Philip's works that looks like concrete covered in a mossy material. I can't figure out how this is done. He may be receptive to inquiries on how to do it (he answers a lot of questions on his Instagram) but I feel this is a bit rude - it is his style and all.

Any advice or logic on how this effect is created via Octane would be really appreciated. Thanks.

EDIT: I should note that I'm using Cinema4D and Octane.

You can use Phantom Scatter if you want real moss (using instancing), an example of it can be seen here: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=55969
