Sahara Dune
Golden desert sand for 3D scenes: wind-combed ripples crawling downwind under a high, dry sun, with grains that glint.

Iron-red desert sand material with steep, strong wind ripples under a warm orange-tinted sun. For outback, desert and rugged 3D scenes.
SandBlack Volcanic
Black volcanic sand material: near-black basalt grains that glitter hard in low, raking light. For dramatic, high-contrast 3D scenes.
SandDune Sea Dusk
Dusk desert sand material: tall dunes raked by a deep-orange setting sun, with ripples streaming on a strong wind. For cinematic desert scenes.
SandPink Coral
Blush-pink coral sand material: calm, fine shell sand with a gentle shimmer. For beach, tropical and soft pastel 3D scenes.
SandWet Shore
Damp beach sand material at golden hour: darker, packed sand with fine, even wave ripples and bright quartz glints.
SandWhite Sands
Near-white gypsum sand material: bright, chalk-matte dunes with a strong sky bounce. For clean, minimal and luminous 3D scenes.
SandWorks well with
Canyon
A placeable patch of canyon country: stratified mesas cut by a branching incised channel network, easing down to its base at the edge. Footprint is the object's scale. Use for red-rock deserts, western and Mars scenes.
LandDunes
A placeable patch of sand dunes: asymmetric wind-driven ridges with gentle windward and steep slip faces, easing down to its base at the edge. Footprint is the object's scale. Use for desert spots, beaches and Mars scenes.
LandLand
Placeable 3D terrain patches: mountains, hills, dunes and canyon, sized like any object for dioramas, islands and backdrops.
ObjectReaction Diffusion Grid
A living Gray-Scott reaction-diffusion field: coral, labyrinths and dividing spots grow across the plane and never settle. Use for organic, biological and alien floors.
GridVoronoi Grid
An organic cell floor: irregular cells with glowing membranes and nuclei, drifting slowly and firing like living tissue.
GridContour Grid
A topographic map floor: contour lines over a drifting landscape, with glowing peaks and an optional real 3D relief.
