You could use particles to simulate this. This YouTube video is bound to help you as well as this dust tutorial. [LINK] [this video] [LINK] Best wishes.

I have modeled a car and now im trying to texturize it. I would like to make the materials proceduraly, so I have not unwrapped the model (if its necesary I will, but I dont want to bake the textures). My problem its that I would like to add dirt at the bottom and front of the vehicle, and I dont know if there is a way to do that, for example, in Substance Painter you can set a direction and it will make a mask with that, but I dont know any way to do that. I have seen this video: [this video] but it doesnt seem to work to me Im using blender 2.8. Thx The model: [LINK]

I have a metal pyramid which I'm trying to make slightly covered with sand dust. But I don't need it everywhere, so I decided to use a mask. I've never used masks before. I'm using a texture for this dust as shown in the video ( [this video] ) BUT: I have base metal material with normal displacement from a noise texture, I have a dust img, I have a mask. When everything is set up and I paint the texture I also paint black background. In the video he has clean dust only show up on the model. He has nodes to make it appear only in sertain places (I use paint for that) but he doesn't have anything that makes it show dust without black bg So how do I make it so when I paint only dust shows up and bet
