This rough red brick texture seamless high resolution up to 8ktexture authentically captures the intricate composition and tactile qualities of traditional fired clay masonry. The mineral-rich ceramic base substrate, characteristic of classic red bricks, is vividly replicated through natural iron oxide pigments that create the deep, warm red hues. The texture realistically conveys the porous surface and subtle weathering effects typical of exterior brickwork, where fine grain orientation and coarse, uneven finishes reveal the natural variability formed by environmental exposure. Mortar binders are implied within the delicate seams, adding spatial depth and separation between individual bricks while maintaining a continuous, tileable pattern ideal for architectural visualization.
Designed with precision, this seamless rough red brick texture seamless high resolution up to 8k includes a comprehensive suite of PBR channels that faithfully simulate the material’s physical properties. The BaseColor/Albedo map captures the nuanced red shades with variations caused by layered oxide pigments. The Normal map enhances the coarse grain and subtle surface irregularities, improving tactile realism and depth perception. Roughness is carefully calibrated to reflect the predominantly matte finish of brick, with occasional semi-glossy patches where weathering smooths the surface. The Metallic channel remains near zero, reflecting the non-metallic nature of brick, while Ambient Occlusion emphasizes shadows in mortar joints and recessed areas. Height/Displacement maps add dimensionality by simulating the subtle relief and natural unevenness of the masonry surface, which significantly enhances photorealism in close-up 3D previews and renders.
Rendered at an impressive resolution up to 8k, this tileable rough red brick texture seamless high resolution up to 8ktexture is optimized for seamless integration in leading 3D engines such as Blender, Unreal Engine, and Unity. Its seamless, tileable design ensures large surfaces can be textured without visible repetition or seams, preserving visual consistency even at extreme zoom levels. For best results, adjusting the UV scale to fit your model’s architectural proportions is recommended, ensuring the brick pattern appears natural and authentic. Additionally, fine-tuning the roughness map helps balance surface reflectivity under varying lighting conditions, while subtle application of height or parallax effects can further enhance the texture’s dimensionality and tactile authenticity in your projects.
How to Use These Seamless PBR Textures in Blender
This guide shows how to connect a full PBR texture set to Principled BSDF in Blender (Cycles or Eevee). Works with any of our seamless textures free download, including PBR PNG materials for Blender / Unreal / Unity.
What’s inside the download
*_albedo.png — Base Color (sRGB)*_normal.png — Normal map (Non-Color)*_roughness.png — Roughness (Non-Color)*_metallic.png — Metallic (Non-Color)*_ao.png — Ambient Occlusion (Non-Color)*_height.png — Height / Displacement (Non-Color)*_ORM.png — Packed map (R=AO, G=Roughness, B=Metallic, Non-Color)
Quick start (Node Wrangler, 30 seconds)
- Enable the addon: Edit → Preferences → Add-ons → Node Wrangler.
- Create a material and select the Principled BSDF node.
- Press Ctrl + Shift + T and select the maps
albedo, normal, roughness, metallic (skip height and ORM for now) → Open.
The addon wires Base Color, Normal (with a Normal Map node), Roughness, and Metallic automatically.
- Add AO and Height using the “Manual wiring” steps below (5 and 6).
Manual wiring (full control)
- Create a material (Material Properties → New) and open the Shader Editor.
- Add an Image Texture node for each map. Set Color Space:
- Albedo → sRGB
- AO, Roughness, Metallic, Normal, Height, ORM → Non-Color
- Connect to Principled BSDF:
albedo → Base Colorroughness → Roughnessmetallic → Metallic (for wood this often stays near 0)normal → Normal Map node (Type: Tangent Space) → Normal of Principled.
If details look “inverted”, enable Invert Y on the Normal Map node.
- Ambient Occlusion (AO):
- Add a MixRGB (or Mix Color) node in mode Multiply.
- Input A =
albedo, Input B = ao, Factor = 1.0.
- Output of Mix → Base Color of Principled (replaces the direct albedo connection).
- Height / Displacement:
Cycles — true displacement
- Material Properties → Settings → Displacement: Displacement and Bump.
- Add a Displacement node: connect
height → Height, set Midlevel = 0.5, Scale = 0.02–0.08 (tune to taste).
- Output of Displacement → Material Output → Displacement.
- Add geometry density (e.g., Subdivision Surface) so displacement has polygons to work with.
Eevee (or lightweight Cycles) — bump only
- Add a Bump node:
height → Height.
- Set Strength = 0.2–0.5, Distance = 0.05–0.1, and connect Normal output to Principled’s Normal.
Using the packed ORM texture (optional)
Instead of separate AO/Roughness/Metallic maps you can use the single *_ORM.png:
- Add one Image Texture (Non-Color) → Separate RGB (or Separate Color).
- R (red) → AO (use it in the Multiply node with albedo as above).
- G (green) → Roughness of Principled.
- B (blue) → Metallic of Principled.
UVs & seamless tiling
- These textures are seamless. If your mesh has no UVs, go to UV Editing → Smart UV Project.
- For scale/repeat, add Texture Coordinate (UV) → Mapping and plug it into all texture nodes.
Increase Mapping → Scale (e.g., 2/2/2) to tile more densely.
Recommended starter values
- Normal Map Strength: 0.5–1.0
- Bump Strength: ~0.3
- Displacement Scale (Cycles): ~0.03
Common pitfalls
- Wrong Color Space (normals/roughness/etc. must be Non-Color).
- “Inverted” details → enable Invert Y on the Normal Map node.
- Over-strong relief → lower Displacement Scale or Bump Strength.
