First time poster here.
I'm using Blender to create 3D renders of products which my company is manufacturing.
With regards to the labels that I am applying to the products, the labels will have layered elements to them, such as a matte label with metallic/glossy elements.
Up until now I have merely duplicated the "label" and hovered it extremely close to the layer under it to give the impression that the multiple labels are seen as one, for example:
Base layer - Scale: 1 Metallic Layer - Scale: 1.00001 Glossy layer - Scale: 1.0002
I know there is a way to create this same effect within one "label" using the node editor, whereby I can plug in an image texture to the metallic/clearcoat to "mask" the label so that the image plugged into those sections will appear as either metallic or glossy, but I can't for the life of me figure it out.
Any assistance would be much appreciated - I've attached a screenshot of the metallic element I'm using but if I could combine all metallic/glossy/matte elements into one that would be a million times better for us.
Thank you in advance!
