Archway: Multiple textures update

I had the idea of creating a middle pathway which has rock beds on both sides.

Here is how I did it:

  • I did a loop cut (CTRL + R) on the topside of my “road” mesh / (added 2 loops)
  • I selected the two faces on the side and inset (I) them a little
  • extruded (E) them on the Z axis
  • and then done the stuff shown in the lecture

Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like what I had hoped for at the start.

I don’t know of it is possible to apply different modifiers on just faces. They, of course, inherit the modifiers of the parent object, but this can result in wonky looking textures.

I guess the solution to this is just to create another mesh (a plane in my case) and do the modifiers on that. Here is what I was roughly aiming for:

I noticed other artifacts / distortions at the edges of my - now new - “road” model, so I would have to redo the UV unwrapping on the newly created faces, but I’m not going to bother with that right now.

Looking very good and complex version for the course.
