Technical Artist and Creative Producer at Adobe Wes McDermott, who earlier this month showcased a realistic-looking rust effect and promised to break it down in the future, kept his promise and released a comprehensive tutorial, explaining how to set up this effect.
In this tutorial, the artist shared the entire process of creating a custom rust effect with streaks in Substance 3D Painter, provided a guide on SP's Smart Materials, revealed some neat techniques for you to use in your texturing workflows, and more. On top of that, the creator also shared the effect's project files, allowing you to better understand the nuances of the setup.
