ISO: iray shaders for sand, and beach sand etc

jakiblue

Anyone know of any iray shader packs that contain good beach sand, or any sand really?

This set has a couple of sand shaders, one wet and one dry.  Not sure how they'd do covering a beach, but they're fine for sand castles and that.

I use the hell out of these shaders. They're great.

There is Will Timmins (Oso3D) WPT3. They are procedural iRay shaders so in the viewport for anything other than iRay Preview mode they don't give a great ideal what they'll look like rendered by they are pretty good.

If you look at the beach in tthis render I used one of the WTP3 presets for sand for that beach. It's pretty good sand I think.
