@BnBGobo99 I've found it's the key to making Lego renders look convincing. Even without perfect materials or lighting, if you get the DOF right, it still looks good.

There seemed to be some interest in my lego shader for #b3d, so I worked on it today, and have now released version 7.0. It has more easily tunable parameters, makes the fingerprint texture affect roughness, and more. You can download it now:

I published my Lego shader for #b3d on my website. It has fingerprint and scratch textures from @ambientCG, and it comes in a node group that you can link or append into your blend file. It's not perfect, but I will be updating it.
