Description
Exposed chiseled copper is a weathered form of chiseled copper that has aged from exposure to the air. The texture shows a patina that gives the block a worn and greenish appearance which many builders find attractive for roofs ornaments and aged structures. The chiseled copper form offers a carved pattern which reads as decorative masonry and the exposed variation gives a sense of time passing and natural change. Builders often mix exposed chiseled copper with other exposed copper states to create a gradient of age from bright fresh copper to fully weathered green. This helps create surfaces that feel natural and lived in especially for outdoor areas near water or in historic style builds. The block is craftable from copper blocks converted to the chiseled pattern and then left to age naturally if exposed to the elements. Because it is a visual element players use it for accents statues and for roofs that need to look aged without manual painting or texture editing. Exposed chiseled copper is not special mechanically but it has a strong visual role and it makes themed builds more expressive and convincing.
