Charles Freeborn Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Is there a quick way to create a "dimpled" surface in a random pattern? I need to emulate the look of wrought iron, which is what happens when metal is heated and hammered by hand. In real life it looks like this: Thanks!

Tech Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Do you need the actual geometry, or can you just map an image to make it look like you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Freeborn Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 Image map / texture is just fine. I've gone through the standard textures ( Cast, etc) and none of them are quite right. If I could create a texture map that I could re-use, that would be great. Thanks.

Tech Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Hi Charles, Just take your own photo, or search the web. Note that you will want this to be tileable -- so if you are not sure how to do this, just see any of these tutorials: tileable image map tutorial photoshop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
