This PBR material set features a realistic wet sand and pebble ground surface, providing high-fidelity textures for 2D and 3D scenes. This PBR material captures a dense, granular low-tide ground surface composed of fine sand mixed with scattered small pebbles and rock fragments. The texture exhibits a distinct dark, wet sheen, suggesting a damp coastal or riverbed environment. Its colour palette consists of varied earth tones including shades of grey, brown, and tan, creating a naturalistic, non-uniform appearance. The scan data covers a 2.17 x 2.17 metre area, ensuring sufficient variation for large-scale application without obvious repetition. It includes a comprehensive map suite—albedo, AO, displacement, normal, and roughness—to accurately represent the physical depth and light interaction of the surface.
The download is a 92.7 MB compressed archive with the texture set at 2K with colour, normal, roughness, ambient occlusion and displacement maps, ready for any metal/roughness PBR workflow in Blender, 3ds Max, SketchUp, Unreal Engine or D5.
Professionals can integrate this texture by applying the maps to a displacement-enabled material in their preferred render engine. The included ARM maps streamline shader setup for real-time applications, while the displacement map allows for genuine geometry deformation at the edges of the mesh. Users should set the tiling scale to match the 2170mm real-world dimension to maintain accurate grain size. The provided.blend and.gltf files offer instant compatibility for immediate viewport previewing and lighting tests.
