Hi Rebrand0778,

I use 2 ways to do that;

A/ TILEABLE IMAGE

• find a fabric image on a fabric site like Curtains (kvadrat.dk)

• apply on model

• UV map correctly ThruPaint > (1) UV Painting Plugin For SketchUp - ThruPaint | Part 1 - YouTube

• tweak colors

• make sure the roughness is set ‘rough’

B/ NATIVE SKETCHUP ‘FENCE’ MATERIAL

• desaturate

• rescale

• UV map correctly ThruPaint > (1) UV Painting Plugin For SketchUp - ThruPaint | Part 1 - YouTube

Although this has used me into the past I’m still looking to have these curtains better.

TIP: in daytime scenes you give your curtains a small Self-Illumination as you can do for metal material too to have it less dark into the corners. Credits for this metal method goes to an other forum member.
