Slate is a popular design choice for modern flooring and roofs, but getting an accurate slate texture out of the box for your models can be hard. With this installment of Creating Textures, you can build a custom slate texture in Photoshop and put it to work in the 3D modeling program of your choice. Adam Crespi begins the course by creating the base structure, and then layering in the color variation that occurs naturally in slate. He then cuts out roof and floor tiles to take into 3ds Max. There he links the texture to materials and adds the organic rough edges that gives slate its distinctive look. Combine this technique with the wood and metal cladding courses for all your interior and exterior modeling needs!
