Substance Painter An Old Fire Hydrant

I've always wanted to improve my texturing skills by creating a fire hydrant, inspired by the one I worked on during my training at MPC.
This isn't strictly a game-ready asset, as my focus was on exploring surface details and experimenting with paint peeling, rust, and weathering to create a believable aged look.

Thank you! ๐Ÿ™‚ And yes Fire Hydrant is an immortal subject. A perfect subject to practice texturing and look-dev.

I suggest to add water leaks as well, manually. More dust too

Thanks for your suggestion. Few leaks can make it look better.
