There is a place and a time for booleans, but for the most part is a lazy solution for things that are better solved with proper modeling or texturing. In this case a very efficient solution has already been found by the person posting the question, it just need some enhancing. | |

Searching this site should show you how often. Modelling it with proper topology from the start will teach you valuable skills and avoid certain grief down the road | |

| Mar 6, 2019 at 15:47 | comment | added | user1853 | Stay away from booleans... There is nothing wrong using an image and transparency (it is the most efficient way to keep things low poly). You can add other images or patterns to create a bump map and add it to the existing. The shadows depend on the lighting. | |
