Define new texture

[rfcomm2k]

I have a vision of horizontal T&G siding to give a rustic appearance to a basement. BUT, I cannot find a material to match what will may be installed. Material is 4x8 sheets, 3/4" thick plywood. 3/8" lap on one side, 5/8" lap on the other. Beginning on the 3/8" edge there is 7.5" then a 1/2" groove that is 1/4" deep. Then another 7.5" followed by another groove. This pattern repeats for a total of six 7.5" strips and five 1/2" grooves.

I thought I could define a new texture to create this look, but I am having difficulty accomplishing this.

OR create new one based off old one.

but for texture take picture and edit it and clean up and use that in material definition.

 

I do that all the time to show the wife what the FLOOR will look like by using web pictures of chosen tile.

Same thing for some siding I put on fireplace - Home Depot has some good picture.

 

And the more of these you make the better you get at it.

Heck I did it for my exterior brick since I was not happy with what was in library.

Went outside and took a good picture
