Creating a Combined Texture in SketchUp (e.g. for a Cross-Laminated Timber) | SketchUp for Design
In this tutorial I illustrate a useful technique for cases where you need to combine several texture images into one material. I am using the example of a cross-laminated timber (CLT) here but you can employ this for many other applications. The beauty of using SketchUp for this (instead of Photoshop) is that you can apply textures to correctly-scaled objects (which you first create using SketchUp's modeling tools).
