While greebles are often non-functional surface details, Props are objects with narrative weight. In a sci-fi hallway, a greeble is the exposed wiring on the wall; a prop is the fire extinguisher hanging next to the door.
KitBash3D textures are great, but often you will want a unified look. Learn to use "Material ID" passes or simply override the materials to use your own PBR textures. A single KitBash3D model can look entirely different if you apply a carbon fiber shader versus a rusted metal one.
By doing this, your flat gray cylinder transforms into an intimidating, hyper-detailed industrial reactor in under 10 minutes.
If Models are the skeleton, Props are the organs. Props are smaller, interactable objects that populate the world.
Use them to catch highlights from your lighting and break up flat, boring surfaces. 🛠️ Pro-Tips for KitBashing Success
