How To Do Realistic Textures In Blender

[sikowwitzz]

Hey all, today ill be showing you how to do realistic textures in blender.
So first of you want to find some realistic textures, I get mine from https://www.cc0textures.com/ but you can get them mostly anywhere. So once you download a texture follow these steps!

Before we start, in every picture I have a red square marking the area where the main things will be happening.

• Step One

Import A Plane

• Step Two

Now create a new material

• Step Three

Press that little circle beside the colour and press Image Texture

• Step Four

This is what it should look like.

• Step Five

Change to the Shading menu at the top

• Step Six

Press open and choose your base colour texture

• Step Seven

Now choose your Normal Texture and drag it in

• Step Eight

Now drag the “Colour” from Normal into the Normal at the bottom

• Step Nine

Now press Shift A and add a Normal Map

• Step Ten

Drag it in between the Color and the Normal

• Step Eleven

Now drag in the Roughness from the top left

• Step Twelve

Now drag the Roughness texture into the roughness box

• Step Thirteen

Now add a displace modifier to your plane

• Step Fourteen

Now press New

• Step Fifteen

Now press the texture icon and press open, then open the Displacement texture from your files

• Step Sixteen

Now go into edit mode, press W and subdivide, id recommend set it to 50

Itll look like this, but then set the strength to .1

• Step Eighteen

Boom! Now you can smooth it and export!

Happy Blending
Ask me any questions, hopefully I can answer!

Alright thanks! So the texture will not be like how it’s shown on blender??

see my texture was a brick so its gonna be more 3d but since wooden floors arent too 3d your will turn out a bit less but it will work! if you think its too flat you can turn the strength up
