This tileable 2K PBR texture features trampled coastal sand with distinct tire tracks, designed for realistic exterior rendering. The texture captures a 20-by-20-metre area of compacted beach sand, defined by heavy tread marks and scattered footprints. The surface exhibits a natural, uneven grain typical of coastal terrain, with compacted ridges and depressions created by vehicle movement. The colour palette is a consistent, muted earth-brown, reflecting a dry or semi-compacted state. The provided map set includes albedo, ambient occlusion, displacement, normal, and roughness layers, ensuring high-fidelity interaction with light. This asset provides a realistic ground plane for outdoor environments, effectively mimicking the complex topography of a busy beach or coastal path.
The download is a 40.9 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 PBR material by assigning the included maps to a standard shader node system within their 3D software. The displacement map is essential for capturing the depth of the tire treads and footprints at render time. For optimal results, users should scale the texture to match the 20-metre real-world footprint provided in the data. The packed ARM map streamlines the setup process, allowing for efficient control over ambient occlusion, roughness, and metallic channels in a single node.

Ideal for landscape architecture, site master planning, and coastal environment visualisation, this texture adds necessary grit and human activity to large-scale outdoor scenes. It works effectively for beach access paths, construction sites near coastlines, or recreational park areas where heavy vehicle traffic is present. Architects and visualisers can use this material to ground exterior renders, ensuring that large, flat surfaces avoid a sterile appearance. It pairs well with scattered vegetation or drift wood assets to create a convincing, lived-in coastal aesthetic for residential or leisure projects.
