Inventor version?

Do you have a texture image already?

(I don't have the time to find one like that)

I dont have an image. This is actually my first time attempting to do something like this. If you suggest a video for me to watch I will gladly do so. Thank you

Your first step will be to find an appropriate image.

Once you have found the image you want - post back I and I will find Niel's excellent YouTube tutorial.

What I had a chance to play with.

Tweaking the lighting and surfaces in Studio may provide a better result.

I'm sure a better texture image is out there somewhere.

I used this one to create the texture.
