Enjoy your eye degradation. It's fast grey for me.

use blinn with the spec lowered

as long as it's a green color.

Y'all cowards won't use gorilla matcap.

>>713661
What are you trying to say?

>>713700
use green matcaps for modelling not red ones.
The only reason red is default, is people believing fine art sculptors work with terracotta.
Fine art sculptors who know what they are doing use green clay, people who make pottery use terracotta.
Green matcaps are easier on the eyes and make it fine details better visible.

>>713703
show me a sculptor using green clay

>>713703
Okay but... what does the CIE diagram have to do with it?

>>713834
clay formed from this stone is the best.
>>713854
tl;dr the human eye sees more shades of green than any other color.

>>713834

using more cones is good for you.

Not that great
>inb4 what a shitty modeling job

>>713869
I changed the hue of your matcap
can you see the difference?

I don't know how is it going about in your countries, but here the debate which clay is "best" is nothing more than petty internal holywar amongst sculptors, and it goes on for more than 2 centuries already.
the most common types we use(doubled as factions who shit on each other) are: silver-white, yellow grey and green grey. green grey was the strongest in 19th century, silver-white got large amount of sculptors using it in 20th up to current day.
I myself use silver grey the most, but it's simply because the master I studied from was from silver-white "faction".

Silver-white masterrace. Death to yellows and terracotta's.

it is petty, still there is only one answer green grey.
For a sculptor who usually trows away the claysculpt after it has been transferred to stone/wood whatever. The most important thing is the color has to be easy on the eyes and show the form best. Grey is easy on the eyes but doesn't show the form as good as clay with color. Red is not easy on the eyes (for me personally I don't think it shows form better than white/grey). Grey/green shows form the best and is easy on the eyes (all cones in your eye respond to a blueish gray green). My sculpting teacher who was very knowledgeable got pretty upset when another teacher ordered red clay instead of green. We had all types since there was a pottery course in next door. I tried them all white, gray, red and green. Green is the best to work with.

>silver-white got large amount of sculptors using it in 20th up to current day.
(they also like to use clay with chamotte)
The reason for that is because the green clay doesn't look nice as a dried finished piece. The white one does look nice.
For modelling the green one is better it just looks uglier.
Translating this to 3DGC you should use green when modelling, since you can change the color on the fly when showing it off.

But red is the most retarded one to use we can agree on that.

>>713883
I see.
it looks like this pointless holywar might be universal after all.

this might be quite usable

Good arguments and I get the practical benefits you are mentioning.
For learning I'd say gray beige is a good matcap.
When you model late and want to go to bed more easier, it's good to use stuff like redshift, to keep your serotonin levels from going wonkers due to blue light.
The redshift will remove a bunch of contrast levels from green/blue colors.

So:
Modeling at day: green/gray/blue matcaps
Modeling late: beige/gray

I am not knowledgeable regarding the blue light thing. Sounds reasonable.

>>713869
fine job, looks terrifying

>>713963
the tl;dr:
If you have trouble sleeping and often use your computer late, just install redshift and you'll have less sleeping problems.

The medical reason was (if I recall correctly):
if you see blueish light (like during day), your brain thinks it's day and will change serotonin values, keeping you more awake. This results in sleeping problems, when using regular monitors.
Additionally this serotonin levels increase craving for carbohydrates (which will make you fat).
There seems to be a serotonin-imbalance and depression correlation as well, but it's not clear how much they are related and if so, which one is causing which.
