Everyday work is not just about extraordinary results. It is also made of non-extraordinary things, things that might end up nice, things that might end up normal, or that might end up horrible.

Microfibers sure increase the realism of fabrics for closer range shots. Although it's something that is usually achieved with scatter tools, in this tutorial we'll cover how to do this using FStormRender's GeoPattern.
The very same logic can be applied using VRay with the VRayPattern plugin.

At the end of this tutorial, you should be better grasping the pro and cons of GeoPattern for such an use, and be able to create a detailed fabric material from scratch.

Creating procedural floors is simple.. when the tiles all have the same dimensions. But what if you need to create composite floors?
