[Mask] Splatter Textures

Splatter masks give you irregular, organic edges without hand-painting them — scattered droplet and spray patterns in grayscale, ready to drive blending, decals, or dirt buildup wherever a hard edge would look artificial.

What's in this collection

  • Fine splatter — small, dense droplets for subtle grime and wear.
  • Coarse splatter — large, sparse blobs for bold decal shapes.
  • Directional splatter — motion-streaked droplets implying spray or impact.
  • Layered splatter — overlapping droplet sizes for natural randomness.

All masks are seamless in both directions and delivered at high resolution.

Where Splatter Masks are used

Material blending. Splatter masks control where dirt, moss, or paint breaks through a base surface.

Decal design. Blood, paint, and liquid decals in games rely on splatter shapes for irregular edges.

Motion graphics. Splatter masks reveal or wipe elements in title sequences and transitions.

Print and UI design. Splatter shapes add organic texture to backgrounds and section dividers.

How to use these in Substance Designer

  1. Import the mask as a grayscale bitmap node.
  2. Plug it into a Blend node as the opacity input.
  3. Adjust levels to control coverage and contrast.
  4. Combine with noise for extra edge variation.

How to use these in Photoshop

  1. Add the mask as a new layer above your base image.
  2. Set the layer as a Layer Mask on the element above.
  3. Adjust Levels or Curves to fine-tune coverage.
  4. Scale or rotate the mask to avoid an obvious repeat.

How to use these as blend masks in game engines

  1. Import the mask as a grayscale texture asset.
  2. Wire it into your material's Lerp or Blend node as alpha.
  3. Use it to mix two surface materials at runtime.
  4. Adjust contrast in-engine to sharpen or soften the transition.

Tips for Splatter Masks specifically

Rotate or flip the mask between uses; a single splatter pattern repeated at identical orientation reads as obviously tiled.

Push contrast up for hard-edged decals, or keep it soft for gradual material blending.

Layer two splatter masks at different scales for a denser, more natural spray pattern.

What's in this collection Sheet butyl — flat membrane surface for roofing and lining shots. Textured butyl — a subtle surface grain variant for close-up props. Rough butyl — a coarser finish for older or weathered stock. Seam-ready panels — edges that tile cleanly for large membrane runs.
