My journey into Substance Designer

james swanson

I started using Designer a couple days ago and I'm already loving it. I'll use this thread to share any substances I make in hopes to get feedback for improvement. Here are my first few:

Simple bathroom tiles:



Somewhat fancy floor tiles:



Let me know what you think/what I can change! I can also post shots of my graphs.

These look great. Can you recommend any tutorials?

I found the second one very helpful, the commentator explains it very simply. Although I haven't tried substance designer myself.

I assume that the blank spaces are missing tiles right?

I think it would be good to have some cracks in that area, and on the adjacent tiles, otherwise it looks like the tiles randomly went missing. There is no indication that they were damaged.

Here are some examples:





Just my opinion, others might disagree

The back of the tiles needs to have some noise in the normal, and not a lot of reflectance as grout glue is pretty rough

Can you share the graph? I know, that was four years ago but i wanted to give it a shot. The first texture is great by the way. Especially for a starter for a couple days.
