In this beefy tutorial, we're hittin' the streets to capture a bunch of massive concrete textures, not like those whimpy ones around the net. I'm talking about huge dam walls, endless drainage ditches, and epic bridges.

Once we've captured our images, we'll stitch them together in Photoshop, process normal maps, specular maps and roughness maps, then organize everything in Quizel Bridge. Let's go!
