I've hit a serious snag many times over the years - trying to replicate the look of damascened steel on any number of projects. I've tried photosourcing, hand painting, and any number of other tricks, but it never looks quite RIGHT. It often ends up making the item in question look like wood, for example.

Assuming a standard "Metallic / Roughness" setup, is there any advice or siggestions for making, say, a sword look like pattern welded or damascened steel?
