Load the texture set
Download the ZIP, extract the PNG files, and add them in the Shader Editor. Node Wrangler can speed up common texture wiring.

Generate PBR materials for Blender
twirl creates five standard PNG maps that can be connected to Blender’s Principled BSDF. Use the same material in Cycles or Eevee, then decide whether height should remain a bump effect or drive real displacement.
Connect the maps to Principled BSDF
Use albedo as Base Color in sRGB. Treat normal, roughness, metallic, and height as Non-Color data. Blender generally uses OpenGL normals, so the default normal orientation should read correctly in most setups.
Set color spaces correctly
Keep albedo in sRGB. Set normal, roughness, metallic, and height to Non-Color so Blender does not apply display color transforms to data maps.
Choose bump or displacement
Use normal or bump for efficient surface detail. Use Cycles displacement only when the mesh density and camera angle justify real geometry movement.
PBR materials to try in Blender
Open a material, download the five maps, and test it on a UV-mapped plane or sphere before applying it across a finished asset.
Frequently asked questions
Do twirl materials work in Blender?
Yes. The downloaded PNG maps use a standard metalness and roughness workflow that can be connected to Principled BSDF.
Which color space should each map use?
Use sRGB for albedo. Set normal, roughness, metallic, and height maps to Non-Color.
Is a Blender plugin available?
Not yet. A Blender integration is coming soon. Manual download and shader setup are available now.
