Fibers, fur

[arthenics]

Hello,

Playing around with Designer, I can't find a way to solve this little problem : playing with normal, height noise  and/or fiber, I can't manage to make a short hair effect or add some kind of fiber ruggedness to fabric. I thought about an alternative as some kind of glitter as for velvet but I'm not too sure about the parameters that generate glitters/sparklings. Any hint?

Can you show an image of the material you are trying to emulate?

Glitter can be achieved using the metallic and roughness channels.

For velvet, I have usually turned to a separate shader such as Blender's Velvet shader, although you can download a 'Velvet Iridescant'  material from Adobe 3D assets as an SBS file, which you can open and see how they have approached the simulation of such a material

In fact, I try to get something that could look close enough from a wool carpet texture (as a persian carpet for example). But I failed to get anything close.

What I meant was - do you have a close up photograph of a real life material that you are trying to emulate?

 Hello,

It's not exactly that, but close from what I'm looking for. As you can see it's kinda velvet like but with a bit a "hair" effect.
