Geometry nodes-
Started getting into Blender's Geometry nodes. I will very likely use it for most of the environment. The plan is to create separate cobbles with the cobble generator. Then, they are used in the cobble path gen as instanced objects.Cobble generator-

Node setup. Using mesh booleans that spits out the intersected mesh between noised cube and sub'd cube. You can control the bevel thickness and the edge chipping noise strength.
Cobble path-
Curve-based controls. It uses cobbles created above. Each line can be controlled for now, but maybe I will reduce the exposed controls later.

base graph that is reused for each mesh line/cobble line. Can control rotation, scale, transforms, and overall shape distortion with this.
Later randomized vertex colors can be assigned to get the selection control like color ID. This can be used in ZBrush or Painter.
