Can you help me find this texture ?

[Marco Manunta]

Hello guys,

 

a simple question:

 

a client asked me to make a brick facade which is similar to the reference here :

i completely forgot the name of this kind of bricks (simple bricks pivoting for X degrees) so i m not able to find other references to better study the task.

 

1) do you know what's the name of this typology of brick pose ?

2) do you think if it's better to use/create a displacement map or to model them directly in 3D Max ? (the façade is not enormous, but neither small...i would say 40m x 5m (length x height)

3) do you've ever seen a texture like this in some sites so i can download/buy it ?

 

thank you!

I would suggest modelling the bricks, not sure a texture would give you a good finish

if you model 1 brick you can use my railclone setup to get it working

I found similar brick by googling dogtooth bricks. After that you can open the can of worms even further going to pinterest.

Although I haven't found a single proper image that i would use as texture myself so :/

 

Although if you use substance painter/designer you could buy this preset from substance store

If not I would model the wall and use it/make my own displacement etc. Think it will be of better quality and faster than finding the proper texture.

Wow Eduardas thank you. This was exactly the kind of answer i was looking for.

 

I had some luck, and the client changed his mind so i don't need it anymore. But if i needed, i would have followed the path you suggested.

 

thank you folks!

I would also recommend modeling the bricks as well. I've never played with a map that intense before... probably because the end results wouldn't look like that.

 

I did work on a project with a similar issue with texture. Let me see if I can find it to help you out.

I know this is moot now but

I think what you are looking for is this...

 

 

 

 

One manufacturer I found here:

https://www.indiamart.com/proddetail/mint-sandstone-v-shape-wall-cladding-9631712833.html

 

 

 

It's a v-shape wall tile cladding. If you look toward the top of the wall in your reference photo you'll see the delta from surface to tip of wedge is really very shallow.
