A tutorial for,How you can create a rough wood texture using Zbrush, 3DS Max and Photoshop. This can be interesting if you want to make a totally handpainted texture as well. There are just a couple of layers you can make differently to create a more stylized handpainted texture.All that is included in the .PSD at the bottom of this page.

INTRODUCTION

HIGHPOLY

I exported both planks to the .OBJ format and imported into Zbrush.

Repeat this step on all sides of your planks.

I rendered out an ambient occlusion map from the highpoly in 3DS Max at the same time as I baked out the normal map.

I surface blurred the photo and edited it quite a bit painting over some weird things and tweaking the hue.
