Just trying to create random variations on barrels. Always nice to have some time on my hands lol. 3 are duplicates of the first all sharing a single shader tree. Just using a random output of the object to create the differences. Rendered in cycles as Eevee stuck its finger up at me and said it couldn't do it. lol. Am going to try the same thing using drivers to randomise the output rather than a node and see what happens. I did use three different 1K texture maps on it rather than building it from scratch. The set up is confusing but if anyone wants to see it I'll post it up.

This is really nice!!! Love the textures!!

Thanks Boni They were just 2 rust textures and a paint texture from textures dot com which are fairly low quality. Was originally doing this to bake my own textures but got side tracked instead.

Incantrix.

Looks real good incantrix here is a new texture site I found with some really great 4K textures and it is free also https://texturehaven.com/

Lobo that is great!! incantrix ... some of our best discoveries happen when we get side tracked. That is how great art is made ... or so I've read!

Oh that Texture Haven site looks just like HDRi Haven, and I see both are supported by folks through Patreon. Looks like a nice selection of textures.

@incantrix: Looks good! @Lobo: Thanks for the texture link :)

There is another one that I recently found but now can't find the link once I do will share it as well.

Thanks Everyone

True Boni I more often than not have set goals in mind and then end up going in a totally different direction lol.

Unlinked site for textures that I can remember off the top of my head.

Poligon has a few free ones, As does Blender nation, textures.com , texture haven, freePBR , cc0textures, CG channel, CG bookcase.

will have to find my list as I have a lot listed somewhere.

Will still probably bake all the textures I've got up there as references and to run through Quixel. As there are 8 different ones atm, which is plenty lol.

Just to show what sort of mess the set up looked like. The masking group is not mine but from a tute I watched on Utube.

Like I said a big mess lol

Incantrix

CG bookcase was the other site I was thinking about

Thanks!
