    I appreciate the effort of the creator. Great quality of materials and Decals (options for damage are very useful and easy to use). Impressive library, works nice in Eevee/ Mac. I was convinced but the free version to purchase full library. Thanks!

    Great addon and constant improvements! I'm a big fan of the Smart Metals & experimental alien skins.

    Keep up the great work Sanctus!

    Decent set of materials but nothing to write home about. There's better alternatives out there.

      Thank you for sharing your experience.
      Please contact me so I can give you a refund. It's not my goal to take money from people who didn't like the product. Also if you want to share more info so I can improve the product it would be nice. I haven't seen many procedural material libraries so I'm not sure what other products you are referring to.
      Best, Sanctus

    I don't know how to give u my opinion with gumroad, so instead, I use blender market. As an architect, it's really useful. but one wish is road material. I have a suggestion about that. It would be way better if I can control how many lines and distance and thickness as well, thanks again!!

      Hi Jiho, thank you very much for your review. I can work on a new version of the road material with more control over the parameters for sure. You can always join the addons Discord to suggest features and ask for help if you ever need some. Best Sanctus

    I've had several non procedural Material addons before, I literally stopped using all of them because of this library, didn't know how good it is to have a good procedural material library like this one, not only because of materials, but also how well is put together as an easy to use addon, in top of that, it's constantly getting updates and not only materials nodes, but geometry or other crazy and experimental nodes that can come handy in some situations. This is one of my top addons for sure, and i have plenty of addons...

    Its so useful to me. So much that I can focus on modelling, not worrying about textures or materials, too much. Overall a fair price! If anyone is unsure, try the free version first!
    Thank you Sanctus, Keep up the great work! <3

    Wonderful product and huge value with the regular feature and material library updates. The newer Decals are an amazing benefit.

    Really great levels of engagement as well from Sanctus with YouTube tutorials supporting the product and Twitter posts helping the userbase.

    Definitely in my Top 3 for Blender Add-On's I've purchased.

    I have had this for a few weeks now and waited to post a review to give the add on a fair testing:
    The overall quality of the add on is superb a lot of thought and care has gone into to the overall UI it is compact and yet complete.
    The materials included are varied and interesting out of the box and all can be endlessly tweaked for an almost infinite number of variations.
    I have seen comments about the speed of the workflow, while it is fair to say procedural node based textures in Blender can get slow as the complexity grows, I think it is unfair to blame the developer of the add on for this, it is a Blender core issue, which the add on developer has no control over. To alleviate this I would suggest mixing your textures and then baking them out to bit maps which will be fast al though fixed.
    I am very happy with my purchase and would recommended it to anyone looking for a starting point to complex procedural texturing in Blender.
    I am in no affiliated with the developer and the opinions stated here are my own.

    I'm very disappointed with this collection. Materials aren't what I expected and they slow down view port performance significantly when trying to use them. On top of that the interface isn't intuitive at all. Hard pass.

      Hi Andrei, I wish you would have reached out to see if you where using the addon correctly before getting to a conclusion. In any case send me a message for a refund. If this addon was not for you I don't want you to lose your money on it. Thanks for your feedback.
