Stylized Edge Highlight - Substance Designer Node

This easy to use edge highlight node can be used in a variety of ways from a simple color overlay to a mask for blending to really help your materials pop. While its definitely easier to use a node like this for stylized textures, masking edges and breaking them up is a common technique, and I find this node to be helpful for more realistic materials as well.

This node pairs very well with my Random Bevel and Sculpted Edge nodes.

  • Edge breakup Intensity
  • Choice of preset edge breakup types
