Standing Seam Metal Roof

[PhilvK]

Does anyone have knowledge of a default material for Standing Seam Metal Roofing? There are some posts form some years back with reference to a video on how to get to, or create one, but that video seems to be no longer accessible. I created one, but it’s very so-so.

My way o doing that is Material (Roofing Metal) with Relief Pattern.

I use either:

• Relief Pattern > Custom Image - a gray scale or white and black bitmap ( I made it in Photoshop)

or:

• Relief Pattern > Custom Image -Tile ( procedural )

In the attached screencast I've shown both ways.

A more accurate effect could be obtained using  a Roofing Tile Material  with two maps (made in Photosop)  - Generic -a colored realistic image and Bump - a gray scale map for the Relief Pattern . The two bitmaps will work together.

Maybe some of these could help you somehow...
