Update: both meshes have proper medium LODs now.
Hello!
Today I bring you 2 new clutter deco meshes!
Stack o' Cork comes in two forms - single and stack of 4. Now your Sims can protect their counters and tables from hot plates and wet cups. Both have a few deco slots and a few color options. These meshes are inspired by and based on the cork trivets sold by Ikea - I have a ton of these around my home. I might make a wall mounted version as well with slotting for compatibility with RVSN and ATS4 corkboard deco.
2 new meshes - single trivet and trivet stack
both meshes are:
single trivet
trivet stack
I made the cork material in Substance Painter which I just started learning. I'd previously made a cork material with nodes in Blender but it wasn't Maxis Match enough.
I'm thrilled with how the normals/spec maps came out. I might tweak them further in the future but I think they look neat. Please let me know if you experience any weirdness with the meshes or my textures!
