This seamless 3D PBR texture at 8K resolution expertly captures the intricate surface of a black bat wing, designed specifically for Halloween-themed digital art and models. The material simulates an organic, leathery substrate characterized by a thin, semi-translucent membrane stretched over a network of visible veins and finely folded structures. The base composition suggests a natural polymer matrix akin to skin tissue, with fibrous elements oriented along the wing’s span to reflect realistic grain and elasticity. The surface displays subtle porosity and slight weathering effects, enhancing the authenticity of an aged, nocturnal creature’s wing. Its matte finish minimizes unwanted reflections, emphasizing the texture’s detailed organic patterns and contributing to a suitably eerie appearance for spooky scenes and atmospheric renders.
From a PBR perspective, this texture’s BaseColor channel features deep, rich black pigments with nuanced variations that highlight the wing’s veins and folds. The Normal map conveys fine micro-geometry—wrinkles, veins, and membrane undulations—adding depth and tactile realism under dynamic lighting. Roughness values are carefully balanced to replicate the leathery skin’s slightly uneven surface, neither too glossy nor overly matte, while the Metallic channel remains near zero to maintain the organic, non-metallic nature of the material. Ambient Occlusion enhances shadowing within creases and folds, boosting dimensionality, and the Height/Displacement map subtly accentuates the wing’s raised veins and membrane tension, ideal for parallax effects in game engines or detailed close-up renders.
Optimized for seamless tiling, this black bat wing surface is fully compatible and ready to use in Blender, Unreal Engine, and Unity workflows, supporting photorealistic PBR shading at ultra-high 8K resolution. The seamless design ensures that repeated UV mapping will not produce visible seams or distortions, making it perfect for winged creature models, Halloween props, and atmospheric environmental assets. For best results, it is recommended to adjust the UV scale to maintain natural vein density and to fine-tune roughness parameters depending on lighting conditions to enhance the eerie, lifelike quality of the membrane.
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.
