Hanpainted Wall Texture feedback please :)

Hey, I recently started learn to create handpainted textures.
This is my first one and created in about 3 hours, I'd like some critiques and if possible some general advice


Thanks very much in advance!

It looks as if you are mixing hand painted and imaged together. The variation in detail is a bit too striking I think. It is coming along but I would recommend also working on the grout lined and getting them a bit more "flowy" or painterly. Definitely good for a 3 hr session I think tho.

Hey thanks
Yep I had to cheat a bit, and generate a detailmap in PS.
After around 12 hours I took a look at the texture and you're very right about the grout lines, also the variation could be better
Thanks for the help.
And I made another one, without cheating this time, just generated a cloud background and basecolor and let it distort a bit to get this look. It could be also done with the brush, but takes more time, same result.
around 4 hours cause of shapes and more details:


I think I just need to draw more and more and more until its refined to look better and more crisp
Thanks!

Haha fuck, I post my stuff in the wrong thread. /facepalm
Here some Feedback for your wood texture
I would spend more time on the depth information from the texture because at the moment it is pretty flat.  I made a rough overpainting to visualize what i mean hopefully it will help you.

I will spend more time now and refine my works
