Blender course: from photo to 3D wall

In this mini course we are going to see how to create a 3D wall with Blender starting from a photo or a texture.
The course is divided into several phases, each represented by a tutorial:

1. How to build displace, normal, roughness etc. maps with the Krita software from the photo of a wall

   Krita tutorial: how to create displacement, height, normal etc. maps

   

2. Introduction to the "Displace" modifier in Blender and how to make the brick wall with effect on the mesh

   Blender: how to create the bricks of the wall with the displace modifier

   

3. Introduction to "Microdisplacement/Adaptive Subdivision" tool and how to make brick wall with effect on the rendering in Blender

   Blender: bricks with the adaptive subdivision/microdisplacement

   

4. How to use the previously created maps to compose a pbr material with Blender for the 3d brick wall

   Blender tutorial: PBR material for brick wall

5. Real walls are never clean, let's dirty them with moss and damp spots using textures

   Blender tutorial: how to add dirt to a wall

6. Let's create a graffiti image using Krita

   How to make graffiti in Krita

7. In the Blender software we apply the graffiti, made with Krita, to the wall and sign it using the "Texture Paint" tool.
