## Showcase: reference image to Designer materials and Blender lookdev

A Codex-generated reference guided a **2.2 m wooden crate modeled in Blender**
with painted wood and rusted steel authored in **Substance 3D Designer 16**.
Wood scratches, metal scratches and rust are independent procedural layers in
the SD graphs. Their exported PBR maps drive the Blender materials. Layered
broken battens combine attached wood fibers with native SD height displacement;
fine wood grain uses a separate UV layer with consistent physical density.

**Model UVs — coordinates and a rendered checker:**

Wood detail uses one tile per 0.45 m. UVs intentionally tile and overlap;
the [UV review](docs/showcase/crate-lookdev/README.md#geometry-displacement-and-uvs)
explains the two layers and the existing steel UVs.
