Macro Eyes for Iray Blues and Greens

Authors:

Are you tired of being appreciated for your body and not your mind? Then it's time to shift their focus a little higher up! Macro Eyes for Iray will get their attention and hold it by bringing more life, depth, and realism to those limpid pools. Lifelike color variations, enhanced detail, subtle surface transitions, improved light response, and crystal clear reflections are just some of what this product has to offer.

I made Macro Eyes because I wanted to make it easier for everyone, not just advanced Daz Studio users, to get better, more realistic results with their renders. So after much research, testing, and a lot of hand crafting, here is the result:

Macro Eyes Blues and Greens is a finely detailed compilation of eye textures, custom Iray Uber shader settings, and custom eye morphs that all load together with the double-click of a preset. Each eye color preset is based on a real world eye, with no two being exactly the same. This versatile set of natural blue and greens ,ranging from subtle to brilliant, will compliment any Genesis 3 Female or Genesis 3 Male character.

Macro Eyes will look great in any scene, but the true advantage stands out in close-ups and portraiture. Every part of the eye has been enhanced to make the most out of Iray's Physically Based Rendering. And with Macro Eyes, the closer you get, the better they look; so much so that you may question whether you are looking at a close-up render you just made or a prime example of Macro Photography. Bring more life to your eyes with Macro Eyes!

Key Features Include:

Twice the detail

20 different 4K resolution (2X standard) ultra detailed, photo based eye texture maps

Increased height detail and accuracy

Normal maps were precision crafted using texture generation software specifically designed for physically based output.

Heterochromia

Included as a bonus are four HD resolution Heterochromia (mixed eye) color presets.

Right and Left Dilation

Independent left and right pupil dilate morphs for Heterochromia and that cool David Bowie look.

Curved Iris

Concave Iris morph (pixar style) allows better illumination of the iris (simulates interior cornea caustics).

Subtle Transitions

IMPORTANT: Precise masking for subtle transitions between eye surface groups: Lacrimal > Sclera, Sclera > Iris, Iris > Pupil.

Increased Lacrimal Realism

Fine detailed lacrimal displacement, bump and shader setting improvements make this appear as a more natural part of the eye.

More Realistic Eyelashes

Ultra fine detailed eyelashes transparency and bump maps with anisotropic glossy settings provide a 3D appearance for extreme close ups.

Naturally Moist Eyelids

Optionally add moist eyelids to any Iray Uber shader Face surface without altering existing character's texture maps.
