Druwed

Working on this wood texture, looking for feedback, to see what needs to be improved.

Also wondering what texture is better, the top or bottom one?

Quick Update

Hey there ,

Are you sure that you doing a wood texture , looks more like a brick wall to me or if its wood those planks are floating on top of each other

Also most of your seams make straight line [seam on the top and on the bottom ] this is not how you build  something durable you want to offset them as much as possible for stability + if taken only from visual stand point you are creating center monotone point of attention that wont tile very well , so maybe shift them around add more randomization , to get rig of the floating effect add something in between like mud or moss or use overlap

Made some adjustments, how is it looking now?
Version1:
Version2:

carvuliero

Interlocking looks better but pattern and cracks are not convincing

Check cracks in first image you have long deep ones and short shallow and they all follow same rhythm and flow also overlap a bit

Check ring pattern on second image , depends on how the plank is cut you can have thick waves or very thin ones

On 3rd image you can see how knots are working , its like a big rock in a river stream

4th image planks on this wooden wall are not all flat some stick out

5th all of the above combined + keep special attention to all the different pattern and randomization

Last image is someones application of all of the above
