- Moss Intensity.(green proportion)
- Roughness Warp Intensity for roughness generated based more on original Material or brush stroke
- HSL for adjusting base material color
- Lightness / Contrast for oil-paint stroke color variations
- Brush Stroke Scale and Multiplier for color patch scale and scale variation
