testing texturing on the cylinder

the texture is UV, not procedural.

Any comment or critiques would be appreciated. Thank you…Voc

looks good, are you just planning on duplicating the first tower or making each one different?

Looks really nice. I love the texture. Once thing you could do is add a normal/bump map to the tower to make the bricks stand out.

Thanks for the replies !

lamboguy1 : I will more likely duplicate and use a different uv layout.

and

JayDez: Yeah, I will had some kind of bump map as well.

Thank you both…
