04About this texture

Three layers of small stones overlap, so there is no empty ground between them and the surface reads as a packed gravel bed. The grain is fine enough that the pattern disappears at a distance and only becomes visible near the camera, ideal for large driveways, parking areas, rail beds and garden paths. The height range of 15 mm gives a slight crunch in the normal map without bumps that would make characters look like they float. In the example a log bench, a lantern post and a milk can stand on it.

Good for

  • Driveways, parking areas and yards
  • Rail beds and construction sites
  • Garden paths and flower bed borders

Questions and answers

Does the gravel show tiling on large areas?

Very little, because the stones are small and evenly spread over the 1 × 1 m tile. On huge terrains, blend it with the soil or sand textures through a mask to break up the distance.

Is the gravel suitable for a path next to grass?

Yes. Paint a path mask on the terrain and blend gravel with a grass material. The warm grey tone sits well next to the pastel greens of the ground textures.
