Thanks. I tried using 3.3.1 but failed to replicate the exact look. But I guess I am closer

The " Mix node " looks like this to me. Are you using 3.4 or higher?

Yeah, 3.5 generally as Im into the geonodes.

Ok, thanks :slight_smile:

My take (also using 3.5, but should work in 3.3):

Good luck.

Thanks. I almost got a perfect one. :slight_smile:

But not sure why the tapered area at the top has too much distortion. Also, there is no cut out areas as in your model.

I will soon the spiral you suggested. Wanted to learn a bit as well, so applied on a different shape in 3.4.1. Attaching the .blend file.

I got a perfect match when I tried spiral

What was missing previously was a consistent UV map… do some UV mapping tutorials to ensure you understand them properly.

Looks like you’re missing the following settings (Cycles only):

… and giving it enough geometry to work with :

…then render in Cycles to see the displacement.

Good luck.

Not sure if you’re still active, this has been super helpful! wondering on how I could make this a procedural texture. I have an alembic file of strips wrapping around a bottle and I would love for the strips to have this same texture. any idea on how to apply this to a flat plane?


I want to apply it on those flat strips

It is procedural.

You just need UVs.
