Blender mirror reflection surface plane for Eevee and Cycles

Tutorial video shows how we can make Blender mirror reflection surface plane for Eevee and Cycles. In Blender, we can make a mirror effect by adding reflective material, this is working for Cycles. If we can make reflective surface for Eevee, we can change the setting of Raytracing, and also add Light Probe for reflective surface plane. All the steps are easy to follow for Blender beginners. Happy sharing and I hope this helps. More Blender Tutorial are available here.

How to make Blender mirror reflection surface plane for Eevee and Cycles

We can follow below steps to make Blender mirror reflection surface plane for Eevee and Cycles

1. Go to Add > Mesh, and add a plane

2. Select the plane, and go to Material Properties to add a new material

3. In Principled BSDF shader, we can set base color to white, metallic to 1, and roughness to 0

4. Then, we can a reflective plane for Cycles

5. If using Eevee, we can check the box Raytracing in Render Properties

6. Then, go to Add > Light Probe, and choose Plane

7. Move the Light Probe Plane to same location with the reflective plane that added in step 1.

Then, we have set the plane to be Reflective Surface for Eevee.
