Goldfish (node setup)

This is the finished product.  The main goal of this model was to create and understand the node setup for the goldfish…

… which is documented in the above image.  This node setup does uses three image files – the colour image, the B & W image used as a mask, and a scales image (which were all created in Blender, although the scales images was created in a separate file).

Note that the scales image has been painted black wherever the scales should not show up.

The other primary thing I learned in this project was the depth of field (which shows up as a slightly blurry background image.

On the the next project!
