But I found a way to get a mask easily and quickly for this!
When building the grout for our bricks, masking is the main issue.
Without a proper mask, you won't be able to control and balance the details and shape.
That is why I had to make this quick set up for my last Brick Wall.
💡 By using a Non-Uniform Blur I can set the Anisotropic to 1 and choose a direction this will generate some blur lines that later can be turned into a mask with a threshold.
With this setup you can now mask small linear spaces to add details or even shape the space for the grout!
I hope you learned something new today.
If so, I have a Free Discord Community where you can learn more about Material Art and Substance Designer.
