EC Wood Grain for Blender Geometry Nodes
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
VOLUMETRIC WOOD GRAIN GENERATOR FOR BLENDER
Transform any 3D model into realistic carved wood with this easy-to-use geometry nodes setup. Perfect for 3D printing, product visualization, or stylized renders.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
WHAT YOU GET:
✓ Ready-to-use .blend file with fully functional wood grain geometry nodes
✓ Example objects showing different effects and settings
✓ Comprehensive text guide with tips and troubleshooting
✓ All controls accessible directly in the modifier panel - low to no node editing required!
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
KEY FEATURES:
- FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE - Control ring spacing, wobble, displacement depth, clamp limits, and more from the modifier panel
- SMART MASKING - Use Z-height cutoff for flat bases (for objects that need a flat bottom) or mask objects for selective texturing with adjustable soft edges
- 3D PRINT READY - Apply the modifier and export directly for printing
- ROTATION OPTIONS - Switch between X, Y, Z, or spherical ring orientations
- PROCEDURAL & NON-DESTRUCTIVE - Adjust settings anytime before applying
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
REQUIREMENTS:
Blender 4.0+ (tested on 4.5.1 LTS & 5.0.1). Works best with models that have good topology or can be subdivided - can be used with Remesh modifier for objects that don't have good topology. Basic Blender knowledge helpful but not required.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS:
Append the node group to your project, add it as a modifier to any object, adjust settings in the modifier panel, then apply and export. No complex node editing needed - everything is controlled through easy-to-use sliders and toggles.
